Build Back Smaller, Come Back Workers! 8/8/22

In a tight vote after a weekend vote-a-rama, the Senate passed the Inflation Reduction Act, sending the legislation to the House. Brian Sullivan and Ylan Mui discuss the climate, health care, and tax bill as a “zombified” Build Back Better bill, and White House CEA member Jared Bernstein explains how the Democratic party envisions its impact on inflation, American families, and corporate players. Plus, workers are returning to the office en masse–or are they? Harvard Business School professor Tsedal Neeley and “employee whisperer” Jason Greer discuss the expectations from both employees and employers as the extended WFH season comes to a close.
