Is there a federal solution to the Jackson water crisis?

The water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi officially ended last week, but the problems that have plagued the majority-Black city’s drinking water system for years haven’t been solved. POLITICO’s Annie Snider and host Josh Siegel discuss the strategies that racial and environmental advocacy groups are considering to give the federal government greater control over the spending that’s now controlled by the state government. Plus, Senate Democrats are sticking with their contentious plan to include an energy permitting reform proposal in the upcoming short-term government funding bill.
