Topic

Biden's Foreign Policy for the Middle Class

Description

In 2020, the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace published a report called “Making U.S. Foreign Policy Work Better for the Middle Class,” using interviews from middle-income people in Colorado, Ohio, and Nebraska to gauge what the American middle class wants to see from foreign policy. Securing a “foreign policy for the middle class” went on to become a major talking point in Biden’s 2020 campaign and into his presidency. Having passed the mid-way mark in President Biden's term, how can we evaluate this idea? Does America need a foreign policy for the middle class? Who exactly is this American middle class and does traditional foreign policy not align with their interests? Please join us on Friday, March 24 from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. ET for a discussion with senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute Zack Cooper, political scientist Jonathan Kirshner of Boston College, and finance executive Tom Wyler, a co-author of the original report.
