What will historically high unemployment rates coupled with the worst economic slowdown the U.S. has ever seen mean for the economic outlook in 2021? And, what will President-Elect Biden’s policy agenda look like for the country going forward? How much new spending will Washington enact, and how high might our taxes be raised to pay for it? Joan Woodward will share her insights on the economic outlook and Washington policy issues. Prior to working for Travelers and Goldman Sachs, Woodward worked on Capitol Hill for 12 years as deputy chief of staff for the U.S. Senate Finance Committee.
