All of us need this (the economy) to work better. Hour 2)
For our daily segment of Maggie and the Millionaires Talk Money, Maggie talks with Ai-jen Poo. Ai-jen is a next-generation labor leader, award-winning organizer, author, and a leading voice in the women’s movement. She is president of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, executive director of Caring Across Generations and a trustee of the Ford Foundation. Poo is a nationally recognized expert on the care economy. She authored the celebrated book The Age of Dignity: Preparing for the Elder Boom in a Changing America.
Next, Maggie talks with Jason Stein, President of Wisconsin Policy Forum about health care. Wisconsin has an opportunity to insure 90,000 more residents into Medicaid. This shift would provide 10s of thousands of people with access to more complete healthcare. So why aren't we doing this, like, yesterday?
Finally, Maggie wraps the show chatting with Milwaukee County Executive, David Crowley. The two talk about Milwaukee's most recent economic status.
