EXTREMELY BAD NEWS for economic research, per former BLS Commissioner @ericagroshen.bsky.social on LinkedIn.

BLS is suspending access to its restricted data "for the forseeable future." Applies to projects through the Federal Statistical Research Data Centers & onsite projects with BLS.

Ed researchers! @aeraedresearch.bsky.social asks that we take a 5 min survey on "how specific [IES] datasets, surveys, research, and evaluations are used and relied upon by members" by May 28th to respond to questions from the judge.

Good news! Especially for those at #AEFP2025 / @aefpweb.bsky.social who might use IPEDS:

I came across this new R package that allows you to download literally all of IPEDS before it is gone!

nehgov.github.io/ripeds/

I tested it yesterday and it works like a charm. Definitely recommend!
