Policy for the People on Benefits of Guaranteed Income

In this episode of Policy for the People, we explore the policy known as guaranteed income, an idea whose time has come. First, we speak with Shafeka Hashash, at the Economic Security Project, about the experiments with guaranteed income that we’ve been seeing in communities across the country. Then we examine a guaranteed income pilot program in Oregon, with Brandi Tuck of Path Home, who says that cash programs have the power to lift families out of poverty for good.
