Trump's Plan to Pay for Roads and Highways

Money Talking | Jun 9, 2017

This week, testimony by former FBI Director James Comey dominated the headlines.

This week on Money Talking, Host Charlie Herman talks with WNYC's Andrea Bernstein and Richard Beales with Reuters Breakingviews about the President's plans and whether or not it's likely to happen.
