In times of crises, the work of parliaments is essential. How are lawmakers carrying on their constitutional duties when it comes to significant decisions regarding trillions of dollars in stimulus spending? What are the challenges concerning the coordination of local and federal levels? For this Transatlantic Tuesday, GMF Berlin, and GMF Brussels will join forces to discuss the potential political implications of the varying approaches on both sides of the Atlantic. GMF Berlin's Chiara Rosselli, head of the Mercator European Dialogue, will moderate the conversation.
