Policy Insights Session 1: The New State of Play
May 20, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Join the Milken Institute and United for Infrastructure for a series of 1-hour webinars featuring leaders and innovators addressing critical questions as America moves forward. How should infrastructure fit into federal policymakers’ concepts of sustainable and inclusive economic recovery? How will the inevitable downturn in state and local revenues affect infrastructure funding and finance? How can local leaders adapt, re-finance and re-focus their work to meet the moment?
Leaders in state government and experts on the cutting edge of resilience policy will frame priorities for infrastructure and resilience, how to meet those priorities in the COVID era, and what communities and government need to do to adapt to both changing budgets and infrastructure demands.
