MIP | Make It Plain with Rev. Mark Thompson - Sen. Kamala Harris Wants the Next Stimulus Package to Put People First
play

04/24/20 • 23 min

Senator Kamala Harris knows the public health crisis comes first, and the economic crisis follows--because without healthy Americans, nothing else matters. And that's why she's fighting for items in the next coronavirus stimulus package like free medical treatment and data collection based on race, in order to better target resources based on need. It's also why she's worried about states reopening businesses too soon, and what the repercussions could look like. Mark covers this and so much more with the former presidential candidate in today's episode.
