Maria Arroyo: Co-ops to Combat Poverty

The Laura Flanders show streams from www.grittv.org. Can worker-owned co-ops lift families out of poverty? That’s the question the Community Development Committee of the New York City Council took on in a first-of-its kind hearing convened by Committee Chair, Maria del Carmen Arroyo. GRITtv was there, and spoke to Council member Arroyo in our studio afterwards.
