Congress passed an economic relief deal. Will it measure up to needs? LEO co-founder Jim Sullivan joins On Point to discuss 2020's massive surge in American poverty.

That's nearly 8 million new individuals added to the ranks of the poor. if you compare that to a more historical perspective, that rise is larger than any one-year increase we've seen since we started calculating poverty rates in the United States going back to the 1960's."
