A year after the pandemic hit, Maryland’s economy is crawling back to life but not quite yet on its feet. What is the plan to jumpstart it … and how long could that take?  Ashley Duckman, vice president of government affairs the Maryland Chamber of Commerce, talks about policies and priorities to assist businesses in a strong comeback. And Caryn York, CEO of the Job Opportunities Task Force, advocates on behalf of essential workers. She says she is hopeful because she is finally hearing policy makers engaged in necessary conversations to make sure assistance is allocated fairly during recovery: “What this pandemic has done is that it has actually laid bare all of the structural inequities that we have been raising for years.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
