Mayors, including Philadelphia’s Michael Nutter, discuss how the worldwide financial crisis is hitting major metropolitan areas, and propose policies that can help at a Brookings event with expert Bruce Katz. Brookings economist Robert Litan says once the effects of the federal stimulus tapers off, the nation could see a second economic dive and a W-shaped recession, all in this week’s @Brookings podcast.
