Episode Synopsis
In this episode — one of three in a legislative series — League intergovernmental relations (IGR) representatives Daniel Lightfoot and Ann Lindstrom address federal support for cities responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. They discuss the need for any future aid to be disbursed directly to cities with more flexibility and clear direction from the Treasury; the careful coordination needed among federal, state, and local government partners; and the importance of sharing your experiences with state legislators and your congressional delegation. For more legislative information, check out the League’s legislative policies, subscribe to the Cities Bulletin e-newsletter, and connect with League IGR staff. Episode Transcript (pdf)
