Earlier this spring, the Biden-Harris administration announced the American Jobs Plan, “an investment in America that will create millions of good jobs [and] rebuild our country’s infrastructure.”
For this show, guest host Yuri Rashkin first takes a close look at the American Jobs Plan and its implications for transportation and the built environment with Joseph L. Schofer, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Northwestern University and host of The Infrastructure Show.
Then, Lindsay Owens from Groundwork Collaborative joins us to discuss the American Jobs Plan’s emphasis on the care economy and emerging debates around care work as infrastructure.
