If voters don’t connect local projects to federal policy, large national investments may deliver economic change without building political support for the leaders who enacted them.

That makes sustained funding more politically fragile — and increases the risk of retrenchment.

Governors are more active at claiming credit.

They issued public statements on 65% of projects.
The White House did so for 48%.

Companies often credit multiple actors, further diluting the federal role.

So who gets the credit?

Governors.

49% of respondents credit their governor for new projects — about 8 points more than Biden — and this pattern is bipartisan.

After revelations that companies like Ring have been selling home security footage to ICE, the most common defense of keeping a camera up seems to be, “But what if I’m stalked?”

And as a violence researcher, I’m just here to state for the record that police do not care about your security footage.
