The Rise of Bad Economics: Zohran Mamdani and New Socialism

Join members of Heritage's Roe Institute for Economic Policy Studies as they describe the rise of socialistic redistributionist economics in America.

John Peluso and Nicole Huyer will present their research on the flaws of this new socialism through the proposals of Zohran Mamdani. Then, from impacts on the job markets and rising prices of consumer goods to housing costs and small businesses, a panel of experts will dive deep into the tangible impacts these radical ideals have on American families.
