Description

We’re glad to be back this week for another episode of The Repairer’s Brief. We kicked off this week’s conversation by talking about why faith leaders are joining members of Congress at the National African-American History Museum today to say, “Hands Off Our History.”

In this episode, we also break down a new fact sheet on how communities are feeling policies passed by the current Congress and hear from guest Candace Baker, an Indiana food bank outreach specialist. From millions losing food assistance to historic cuts to Medicaid and healthcare, everyday Americans are paying the price for policies passed to serve the interest of the wealthy few. Candace brings both her experience working directly with families facing food insecurity and her own experience navigating programs like SNAP and WIC to the conversation.

As always, we are grateful for the Institute for Policy Studies & The Save America Movement for partnering with us on this project.
