Restarting the Economy: Understanding How the Cost of Not Investing Can Hurt NJ's Pandemic Recovery

<p>With the guarded hope that we are on a downward trend of coronavirus activity, the discussion has turned to the reopening of the state. EJB Talks host <a href="https://bloustein.rutgers.edu/shapiro" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Stuart Shapiro</strong></a> broaches the topic with Bloustein alumnus <a href="https://www.njpp.org/author/brandon-mckoy"><strong>Brandon McKoy, MCRP '13</strong></a>, president of <a href="https://www.njpp.org/">New Jersey Policy Perspective</a>, and a member of New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's commission to reopen the state. Brandon touches on some of the issues the state (and the country) must face in determining how to reopen, what the CARES Act is helping (and what it isn't), and how <em>not </em>investing in the future has hurt the state.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ejbtalks/message
