Alvina welcomes Esther Turcios, the Deputy Director of the Colorado Fiscal Institute.
Esther shares her inspiring journey from aspiring to be a doctor to becoming a leader in fiscal policy, advocating for tax justice, budget, and economic justice. She emphasizes the need for more representation of Latinas and people of color in policy spaces and highlights the significance of policies like the child tax credit and baby bonds in addressing wealth gaps.
