Listen "Party in the U.S.A.: D.C.’s changing climate"
Episode Synopsis
Since we last checked in President Joe Biden has signed even more executive orders, including directives to advance racial equity and expand health care. He’s also got that big COVID-19 relief bill to get through Congress, and the massive issue of climate change to move up the agenda.
By contrast, former President Donald Trump — who faces his impeachment trial on February 8th — had his five lawyers quit this weekend.
This week Elamin calls up Seung Min Kim, White House reporter for the Washington Post and CNN Political Analyst, to break down what these executive orders all mean. We also talk to Zahra Hirji, climate reporter at Buzzfeed News to assess Biden’s climate policies so far.
