Main Street Agenda town hall meeting in Milwaukee: Inflation

A Main Street Agenda town hall meeting on inflation to be held Tuesday, Oct. 15, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Clinton Rose Senior Center, 3045 N. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. Register here.

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

During the presidential debate, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump made addressing inflation a crucial part of their presidential campaigns.

In a swing state like Wisconsin – where its largest city, Milwaukee, has one of the highest poverty rates in the country – the candidate who can best articulate their plan for addressing inflation could win the state and become the next president of the United States.

Panelists include experts on inflation, Milwaukee community activists:

  • Dynasty Caesar, Senior Organizer for the Redress Movement in Milwaukee.
  • Menzie Chinn, Professor at the La Follette School of Public Affairs and Department of Economics at UW-Madison. His research examines economic developments within and between countries.
  • J. Michael Collins, Professor at the La Follette School of Public Affairs and School of Human Ecology at UW-Madison. He studies consumer decision-making, including credit, savings, and investment.
  • Melody McCurtis, Deputy Director & lead Organizer of Metcalfe Park Community Bridges, a resident-led organization in the Metcalfe Park neighborhood on Milwaukee’s Northside.
