The federal government shut down earlier this week.

Well-positioned to evaluate both the impact of the shutdown and what isn’t happening during this dangerous game of political one-upmanship is Simon Greer, president and CEO of the Nathan Cummings Foundation. Tune in to hear Mr. Greer, a long-time labor and community organizer, discuss with Welton what the shutdown means for working Americans.
