Double Take on Kirwan Trigger, Cares Funding, and More!

On the latest episode of the Conduit Street Podcast, Kevin Kinnally and Michael Sanderson revisit last week’s episode to clarify the means by which the “trigger” provision in the Kirwan Blueprint bill for education funding could take effect, discuss the politics and process of the federal response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and explain how Maryland will distribute CARES Act funding to local jurisdictions.

MACo has made the podcast available through both iTunes and Google Play Music by searching Conduit Street Podcast. You can also listen on our Conduit Street blog with a recap and link to the podcast.
