THIS YEAR'S MANTRA > 2020 Mayors Conference: Forward. Better. Together.
At the Kauffman Foundation's 2020 Mayors Conference, mayors and city staff from across the U.S. are coming together virtually to support entrepreneurs.

The Rise Of The $3 Billion Tear Gas Industry
The use of tear gas during the recent protests surrounding police misconduct in the United States has reignited the debate about the legality of its use on large assemblies. Classified as a "less-lethal weapon," tear gas has become a weapon of choice for law enforcement officers ever since it first emerged during World War I.
Today, the less-lethal weapons industry generates billions of dollars each year, and tear gas products reportedly comprise about 25 percent of the entire industry. Although tear gas is illegal in the context of warfare, it remains legal for use by law enforcement for riot control purposes.
The legality of its use has been debated for nearly a century.
While the debate continues, tear gas continues to be used on protests in the United States and around the world.

Let's start off with the following Bloomberg report yesterday that casts doubts on the Sinclair Broadcasting Group - "one of the largesttelevision station operators in the country, with 191 stations in 89 markets broadcasting to 629 channels. For the most part, the company operates in small, conservative metropolitan locations. Most viewers aren’t likely to be aware of the Sinclair brand, because the thousands of hours of programming it produces each week air on channels affiliated with such household names as ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, Telemundo and Univision.
Sinclair Pulls the Plug on Anti-Fauci Propaganda — This Time
Will the broadcasting company now drop a program attacking the prominent public health expert, or just repackage it?
