This episode of Wonk-Life Balance is time-sensitive. We're talking about making the right investments in Michigan so we can have an equitable recovery, and it's all hinging on the 'Build Back Better' plan that's being hashed out in Congress right now. That means we need to take action. Joining us to talk about what Michigan's communities need is Chong-Anna Canfora of Michigan Community Action, and sharing a look at what's happening in Washington, D.C., is Kathleen Romig of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Together, they help us understand the connection between our real-life experiences and negotiations happening on the U.S. Capitol floor this week. 

What can YOU do? ACT NOW. Contact your member of Congress and urge them to prioritize kids and families and Build Back Better. Here's a link to take action: https://bit.ly/CongressFundOurFuture
