HAPPY BIRTHDAY….If you were born this minute ? or if you just hopped over the border from Sonora ? you’ve put us semi-officially over the top. Congratulations! We can finally stop saying the population of the United States is “nearly 300 million.” As of one minute from now, it’s “over 300 million.”

If you enjoyed this article, consider making a donation to help us produce more like it. The Washington Monthly was founded in 1969 to tell the stories of how government really works—and how to make it work better. Fifty years later, the need for incisive analysis and new, progressive policy ideas is clearer than ever. As a nonprofit, we rely on support from readers like you.

Yes, I’ll make a donation
