The relationship between family structure and outcomes appears to be partially causal, but it's clearly not *entirely* causal (there are big difference in income, parental education and unobserved variables) and this is very hard to study. https://t.co/Ll5quy02Z2 — PolitiTweet.org

Children of all races who are raised by their two birth parents end up with significantly better life outcomes than children of never-married parents. It's appropriate to say this, but I think conservatives overstate the magical power of doing so. https://t.co/Ll5quy02Z2 — PolitiTweet.org

What can be done? Because marriage makes families better off, means-tested programs tend to create marriage penalties and it seems like we shouldn't do that. Most straightforward response is to spend more. https://t.co/Ll5quy02Z2 https://t.co/AMCoz10Miq — PolitiTweet.org
