Political leaders on both sides of the aisle are stressing the importance of wearing masks.That now includes Republicans like Vice President Mike Pence and the governor of Arkansas, Asa Hutchinson.On the Democratic side, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says a federal mandate on face coverings is long overdue.Rodica Damian, an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Houston, tells us seeing prominent political figures accept masks will influence individual decisions.Damian says there's two main sources of what drives behavior, personality and social context. Identifying with a certain political group adds social context.“A lot of people who don't wear masks think they're not wearing masks because they're kind of independent thinking, but it's very likely they're also following social norms,” said Damian. “They're just following social norms of a group that thinks you shouldn't wear masks.”When it comes to personality, Damian says people who are more responsible, rule-following, and pro-social tend to wear masks. Those who don't may have higher levels of narcissism or be more impulsive.“We're all on a continuum, so I don't want to put people in categories, so depending on where you fall on that continuum on each of these traits, they're all going to feed into your decision,” said Damian.Damian says we should remember that across the country and across party lines, the majority of people are strongly in favor of wearing masks. 1465

Prescription drug ads are on every channel, and with them come the laundry list of side effects tacked on at the end of every TV spot. Now, in addition to listing those side effects, you could soon be hearing about the costs.A new proposal from the Trump administration would force manufacturers to state a drug's list price in any TV advertisement.It was a goal first laid out by Human and Health Services Secretary Alex Azar back in May."If we wanna have a real market for drugs, why not have them disclose their prices in the ads too?” asked Azar. “Consumers would have more balanced info and companies would have incentives for setting their prices…"Experts on drug pricing, like John Hopkins University's Gerard Anderson, say it’s about time."If you’re buying a TV, they'll tell you what a TV costs. If the grocery store’s having a sale, they’ll say how much oranges cost. This is something that should be and is just long overdue in the pharma industry,” Anderson says.Pharmaceutical companies have pushed back via their trade group, which said that posting prices on TV could be "misleading or confusing.” Their proposal was to, instead, tell consumers that pricing information could be found on the drug's website."The problem is that most of us would never go to their website to look up that information,” Anderson explains. “And the FDA would have to monitor closely the info on their site and that could change daily. So, it’s really not a viable option."The proposal will be open for public comment for 60 days, and even if it goes into effect after that, industry experts say they're likely to face many legal challenges from the pharmaceutical industry. 1676

President Donald Trump designated April 2018 "Second Chance Month" in a presidential proclamation on Friday.The proclamation states that during the month of April, the United States will emphasize the need "to provide opportunities for people with criminal records to earn an honest second chance."A bipartisan group of senators, including Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois and Republican Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, introduced a resolution last year to make April 2017 "Second Chance Month" to honor efforts to help those with criminal records become productive members of society. The Senate passed the resolution in April of last year. A similar resolution was introduced by Democratic Rep. Tony Cardenas of California last week."Affording those who have been held accountable for their crimes an opportunity to become contributing members of society is a critical element of criminal justice that can reduce our crime rates and prison populations, decrease burdens to the American taxpayer, and make America safer," Trump said in his proclamation.The President goes on to urge the implementation of "evidence-based programs" in prison systems at the federal, state and local level that focus on job training, mentoring and treatment for drug and mental health issues.Trump made promises to crack down on crime a prominent part of his 2016 campaign for the White House. In a speech at the Republican National Convention after winning the Republican presidential nomination, Trump vowed that under his leadership the US would "be a country of law and order."Trump also delivered a combative speech in July 2017 calling gang members "animals" and praising law enforcement for being "rough."In January, Trump held a listening session on prison reform with Republican lawmakers and reform advocates in attendance. CNN reported at the time that Jared Kushner, senior adviser to the President and Trump's son-in-law, was spearheading the White House prison reform push.The New York Times reported on Wednesday that Kushner's interest in prison reform is in tension, however, with the tough-on-crime mentality of Attorney General Jeff Sessions. The contrast in the two approaches to criminal justice has, in turn, "left both Democratic and Republican lawmakers confused and has contributed to skepticism that the Trump administration is serious about its own proposals," the Times reported. 2403

President Donald Trump and Joe Biden met for the second and final time for Thursday’s debate before next month’s presidential election. For millions of voters, their decision has already been made as early voting figures are being tallied at a record pace.NBC News anchor Kristen Welker presided over a debate that featured fewer interruptions between the candidates.CoronavirusTrump backed reopening the economy as America encounters another wave of coronavirus cases. During Thursday’s debate, Trump said that Biden wanted to shut down the economy while slamming the leaders’ of Democrat-led states for their handling of the coronavirus."I said this is dangerous. You catch it. I caught it. I learned a lot. Great hospitals. Now I recovered. 99.9 of young people recovered. 99% of people recover. We have to recover. We cannot close our nation. We have to open schools, we cannot close our nation," Trump said. While the coronavirus has a 99% survival rate, public health experts have warned that the virus causes long-term health effects, including lung and heart damage.Biden has said that he would listen to scientists on whether to recommend economic shutdowns amid the pandemic.“What I would say is I'm going to shut down the virus, not the country,” Biden said. “It's his ineptitude, the cause the virus caused the country to have to shut down in large part. Why businesses have gone under; why schools are closed? Why so many people have lost her living and why they're concerned. Those other concerns are real.”Trump said," We are rounding the turn, we are rounding the corner."Biden challenged the president for his handling of the pandemic."220,000 Americans dead,” Biden said. “If you hear nothing else I say tonight, hear this. Anyone who's responsible for not taking control. In fact, not saying, 'I'm, I take no responsibility initially.' Anyone who's responsible for that many deaths should not remain as president of the United States of America."Trump defended his handling of the virus, pointing that the federal government is ready to distribute a vaccine once one is approved by the FDA.“I think my timeline is going to be more accurate,” Trump said, casting doubt on lengthier timelines offered by public health experts. “I don't know that they're counting on the military the way I do, but we have our generals lined up-- one in particular -- that's the head of logistics and this is a very easy distribution for him. He's ready to go. As soon as we have the vaccine, and we expect to have a hundred million vials, as soon as we have the vaccine, he's ready to go.”ImmigrationIf elected, Biden said that he would offer a pathway for nearly 11 million Americans. Dreamers were generally brought to the US at a young age and never gained full legal status. DACA, signed by President Barack Obama as an executive order, protected a group of 800,000 American residents from deportation. Those 800,000 young undocumented immigrants were those who entered the United States as a child and have been in the United States since 2007.Those who qualify under DACA are given two-year work permits, which allows them to stay in the United States with some legal status.But Biden said that his plan would go a step further, offering legal status to millions of additional undocumented immigrants.But the Trump administration decried Biden during his time serving as Obama’s vice president, saying that the Obama administration build “cages” used to keep children in custody.Social SecurityBiden criticized Trump’s proposal to eliminate the payroll tax, echoing claims that eliminating the payroll tax would cause Social Security to run out of funding by 2023.Stephen Goss, the chief actuary for the Social Security Administration, told the US Senate in August, that a hypothetical bill that would make the tax deferment permanent would cause Social Security to no longer be able to make payments to beneficiaries by the middle of 2023.“This is the guy who if in fact he continues to withhold the tax on social Security, Social Security will be bankrupt by 2023 with no way to make up for it,” Biden said. “This is the guy who has tried to cut Medicare. The idea that Donald Trump is lecturing me on social security and Medicare? Come on.”“He tried to hurt Social Security years ago. Years ago. Go back and look at the records. He tried to hurt social security years,” Trump said in response to Biden.Minimum wageTrump first said during Thursday’s debate that increasing the minimum wage should be a “state option,” but moments later, he conceded he would be open to raising the federal minimum wage.“It should be a state option,” Trump said. “Alabama is different from New York. New York is different from Vermont. Every state is different. We have to help our small businesses. How are you helping small businesses when you are forcing wages -- what has been proven to happen is when you do that, the small businesses fire many other employees?”However, Trump said, “I would consider it to an extent in a second administration, but not to a level that would put them out of business.”Trump said that in some areas, a minimum wage makes sense, but not in other regions.Biden suggested that a national minimum wage should be an hour. However, Biden claimed that first responders are making as little as an hour, while the federal minimum wage is .25.“They deserve a minimum wage of . Anything below that puts you below the poverty level. There is no evidence that when you raise the minimum wage, businesses go out of business,” Biden responded.LeadershipThe final question Welker posed to the candidates was what their message would be, if elected, to those who do not vote for them.“We have to make our country totally successful as it was prior to the plague coming in from China,” Trump said. “Now we are doing record numbers. 11.4 million jobs in a short time, etc. Before the plague came in, I was getting calls from people that would not normally call me. They wanted to get together."We had the best Black unemployment numbers in the history of our country, Hispanics, women, Asian, people with diplomas, with no dimplomas, everyone had the best numbers. The other side wanted to unify. Success is going to bring us together.”Biden’s response?“I am an American president,” Biden said. “I represent all of you whether you vote for me or against me. I will give you hope. We will choose science over fiction, hope over fear. We will choose to move forward because we have in enormous opportunities -- enormous opportunities. We can grow this economy. At the same time we can make sure our economy is being motivated by clean energy, creating millions of new jobs.“That is what we are going to do. As I said at the beginning, what is on the ballot is the character of this country. Decency, honor, respect, treating people with dignity.” 6876
