On the radio show this week we cover what’s in the American Rescue Plan for YOU and how you can access those benefits; the Equality Act that’s moving forward in Congress and what you can do to help make this critically important bill pass; how you can help stop anti-Asian hate and violence; and we hear about a new initiative called We As Ourselves and discuss the importance of the “invest and divest” frame as we advance public policies.
