In this episode, Elizabeth Frazee, CEO and Co-founder of TwinLogic Strategies, and Chani Wiggins, Principal at TwinLogic, join host Scott Maberry to discuss what's likely on the horizon for the 118th Congress, including prospects for the debt limit and the potential for bipartisan action on a farm bill, tax extenders, and immigration reform.

What We Discussed in this Episode:

  • What are the biggest challenges and opportunities for global business coming out of the 117th Congress?

  • Does a divided Congress set the stage for gridlock?

  • Can you explain the connection between the budget, the debt limit, and the appropriations?

  • What can we expect from the U.S. House of Representatives in light of the new leadership and rules package?

  • What is the Sinema factor in the U.S. Senate?

  • In terms of immigration reform, what does business need to see fixed?

  • On taxation, is there bipartisan support for tax extenders?

  • What does the makeup of the current Congress mean for the farm bill?

  • How might the Republican-controlled House approach oversight?

  • What will oversight look like in the Democratic-controlled Senate?

  • What's the big takeaway for business in regard to the 118th Congress?

  • If you had a crystal ball, what would it tell us about the 2024 elections?
