The coronavirus pandemic has exposed and exacerbated our country’s biggest issues — ones that will require major policy shifts to fix. In this series, editor Jake Bullinger examines how programs inspired by the Depression-era New Deal could make the U.S. economy more prosperous and equitable going forward.
Together, these stories spell out the ways our pre-pandemic economy was similar to the one that preceded the Great Depression; how workers could benefit from a guaranteed job; and why it’s finally time for a Green New Deal.
