Episode description

The Biden administration has a new opportunity to reshape the World Bank after David Malpass announced he would step down as president last week. President Joe Biden is expected to name a president who will push the World Bank to focus more on climate change and other global challenges. However, the administration’s path to installing the bank’s next leader won’t be as easy as it has been in the past. POLITICO’s Zack Colman breaks down Biden’s window to redefine the World Bank. Plus, EPA orders Norfolk Southern to pay for train crash clean-up.
