Rick starts off the program with commentary on the new infrastructure “deal” and the absolute game-changer that no one is talking about – the PRO Act. Then healthcare expert and advocate Laura Packard walks us through some of the proposed changes to Medicaid, and how those changes will help people in red states that have previously denied this coverage to their citizens. Then Nick Wing, formerly of The Appeal, joins us to talk about the relaunch of the news site as a worker-led publication called The Appeal Union.
