**Episode Notes**

Welcome to a special Election Day edition of The Modern Federalist Podcast, hosted by Charlton Allen. In this episode, Charlton sits down with Dr. Jay Greene, Senior Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, to discuss a topic that has sparked renewed debate: Kamala Harris's controversial policies around truancy as California’s Attorney General. 

Dr. Greene sheds light on the real-world consequences of these policies, which involved criminalizing parents for their children’s absences, and he examines the implications of this approach on families, parental rights, and the role of government in education. If you’re interested in how Harris’s history might reflect broader educational policy trends, this episode is for you. 

🎙️ **Highlights of Today’s Episode ** - Dr. Greene’s insights on Harris’s truancy policies and their impact on families - The broader consequences of punitive measures in education policy - Why these issues matter now more than ever as voters head to the polls
