 Will the COVID-19 Response Lead to Permanent Occupational Licensing Reforms? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:25:09

Nicole Fox joins to discuss occupational licensing--a form of government regulation that requires a person to obtain a license in order to pursue a particular profession or vocation for pay. Nearly 30% of jobs in America require this permission slip, yet many states are pushing back saying that doing so places unnecessary and burdensome barriers on people just trying to earn a living. Nicole serves as Director of Government Relations at the Platte Institute. She joined the Platte Institute in 2017 after serving in the Nebraska Legislature from 2015-2016, where she was appointed by the Governor to represent Legislative District 7. During her time in the Legislature, she passed Nebraska’s first occupational licensing reform bill to exempt natural hair braiding from cosmetology licensing. One of her areas of focus at the Platte Institute is occupational licensing reform, and she has seen several bills to reduce the burdens of licensing cross the finish line.

 Quotas: Do women need them to get ahead? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:13:06

On this week’s episode, Charlotte Whelan joins to discuss whether women need quotas in order to achieve great things in corporate America. California and some European countries have installed corporate board gender qoutas, so we consider whether this practice leads to higher profits and/or actually helps women move up the economic ladder. Charlotte recently joined IWF as a policy research assistant. She graduated from Princeton University with a degree in French and a certificate in Global Health. At Princeton, she was involved in a variety of activities including the James Madison Program and was the President of the Princeton Chapter of the Network of Enlightened Women.
