Leveling The Playing Field

The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 13, 2011

There’s an agreement in Washington on the federal budget, but the local congressional delegation is not all supportive of the deal. Hear Congressman Bill Pascrell (D-NJ 8) and Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney (D-NY 14) lay out how the New York City metropolitan region would be affected under this budget. Plus: a debate about the future of the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage; sex workers on Long Island; when to give up your court appeal; and Gerald Early on African Americans and sports.

Be alert for scams. WNYC never asks for nor accepts money for coverage or interviews. Anyone making such a request does not represent WNYC.
