America Are We Ready: Healthcare, Housing, and the Care Economy
Wednesdays, October 9, 16, and 23 at 7pm
Three weeks of live, national election call-ins with Marketplace senior Washington correspondent Kimberly Adams. Together with guests and calls they’ll open a national conversation, across divides, about what the outcomes of the November election, both in the White House and in Congress, mean for healthcare costs, housing costs and the Care Economy.

So let’s make some space to hear the stories that shape our points of view, ask questions, and learn what the candidates’ probable policies could mean for things like medicine bills, the rent, and childcare.
