Description
An independent report found that President Biden’s “American Families Plan” could cost $700 billion more than the White House estimates.
Could the costs of the plan actually outweigh the benefits? We’ll ask Chief Economic Adviser to the Vice President Mike Pyle.
Plus, layoffs are down, sales jobs are hot, Zoom is “so 2020” and workers want to get paid. We’ll give you the latest labor market trends ahead of tomorrow’s jobs report.
And, demand for cardboard is so high that International Paper wants to spin off its paper business to focus solely on packaging. We’ll speak with the CEO.
