Cecilia Rouse, the first Black chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisors and professor at Princeton, shares her insights on economic policy that genuinely benefits people.

Rouse also highlights the complex supply chain challenges and the importance of blending evidence-based policies with political instinct to create equitable economic outcomes.
