On today’s show, we will focus on something that most of us probably never think about but has a big impact on our daily lives—the federal budget.  

As of September 2nd, the federal government had spent about $6.6 trillion, taken in revenue around $3.3 trillion, leaving a deficit of around $3.3 trillion. 

These numbers are mind-boggling and the federal budget process is very complex. 

Here to help us learn how the federal budget process works, how to influence it, and what it means for Black, Indigenous and other women of color, is Mike Veselik.
