Family Economic Policy with Heather Boushey and Fatima Goss Graves

Your Political Playlist

To help us understand how the White House's executive actions impact families, Emily talks with Heather Boushey, a member of the Council of Economic Advisers in the Biden administration and one of the nation’s most influential voices on economic policy. Heather discusses how the first priorities for President Biden have been containing the pandemic, addressing racial equity, and getting schools reopened. Emily also interviews Fatima Goss Graves, CEO of the National Women’s Law Center, about the hardships American families are facing during the pandemic, and how boosting the economy for everyone is critical to combating the multiple crises families are facing right now. Every week, Your Political Podcast brings you smart, but bite-size conversations with women at the seat of power and activism. With a new Presidential administration and new Congress, there is a significant amount of work to do cleaning up the bad policies of the last administration and enacting new ideas into law. Some ideas are new and some are the policies debated throughout the 2020 presidential race that we walked through with you.
