It's a terrible time to pull the plug on pandemic assistance. What's happening in Washington?

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

A lot of coronavirus programs end at the end of the year. What happens when this wave crashes? Why can't the federal government get another CARES act done? Why is the treasury secretary pulling the plug on business assistance? And it feels like restaurants are getting close to the end of their rope. Is any help coming? The housing market is carrying the economy -- so is that a good thing, or is a bubble going to burst down the line? David Fiorenza, Associate Professor of Practice at the Villanova School of Business joins KYW Newsradio in Depth to break down the biggest questions about the economy as we approach Thanksgiving in the United States.
