It’s a policy team takeover!

Explain It to Me - Un podcast de Vox - Les mercredis

Join editor Libby Nelson (@libbyanelson) and reporters Rachel Cohen (@rmc031) and Madeleine Ngo (@maddiengo) for a summer policy wrap-up. Inflation, the economy, and gas prices were on everyone’s minds, but we have even more policy news to talk about. Both Congress and the Biden administration made one last late-summer policy push with the Inflation Reduction Act and student loan cancellation. What does this all mean for you? Listen to find out! References: School vaccine mandates for Covid-19 are not happening  Will student loan forgiveness make inflation worse? Inflation is finally slowing down. Will things get cheaper?  The inflation numbers are bad — but how bad are they?   GDP declined again — but that might not mean we're in a recession  ”Standard Oil” octopus cartoon  Credits: Sofi LaLonde, producer and engineer Libby Nelson, editorial adviser A.M.
