Breaking down Trump's policy act and its impact on Americans

Season 2025 Episode 190 | 6m 36s

It has been a week since Congress passed the Republicans' major budget act. But what’s in it and how it will affect Americans' day-to-day lives remains a mystery to most. Congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins read the nearly 900-page law and joined Amna Nawaz to help make sense of it all.
