The New New Deal Conference [1]

Progressives need to rekindle the spirit of the New Deal to move the nation toward solutions to today's economic crises that match the size of the problems, according to the leaders of the The Roosevelt Institution [2], which sponsored a conference in Washington April 9 on "The New New Deal." In this podcast, two conference participants, New Deal historian William Leuchtenburg and Center on Budget and Policy Priorities president Robert Greenstein talk about the Roosevelt era and the difference his expansive vision about the role of government would make on such issues as the housing crisis.
