Matter of Fact with Soledad O'Brien

OCTOBER 21, 2017 (2x7)

: 21, 2017

This week Soledad O’Brien speaks with Democratic strategist Jamal Simmons and Republican strategist Ford O’Connell to discuss the breakdown of parties and bipartisanship in Congress. Then, Julie Mix McPeak, president-elect of the the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, explains how the President’s cut of subsidy payments mandated by the ACA will affect access, premiums and coverage options, as well as why middle class families may end up footing the bill. And, as more sexual harassment victims step forward, we ask the question: have we reached a tipping point yet? Chai Feldblum, Commissioner of the EEOC, joins Soledad to talk about why victims don’t report their experiences to bosses, how silent bystanders promotes a culture of consent, and how non-disclosure agreements keep “super star” harassers on the job.
