1955: Senator Cory Booker on Taxes, Childcare and Big Ideas to Fix Our Economy
Wednesday, 11 March, 2026

U.S. Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey joins us for a wide-ranging conversation recorded in one sitting for both podcasts - The Montclair Pod and So Money.Senator Booker first rose to national prominence as the mayor of Newark, where he built a reputation for hands-on leadership and bold policy ideas. He has now served more than a decade in the U.S. Senate, becoming one of the most prominent voices in the Democratic Party.He’s also entering a new chapter personally: Booker recently married and is expecting his first child—something that clearly shapes how he thinks about issues like childcare, family economics, and investing in America’s future.Our conversation comes as Senator Booker unveils a new proposal called the Keep Your Pay Act—a plan that would eliminate federal income taxes on the first $75,000 of income, a move he says could dramatically increase take-home pay for many middle-class families.In this conversation, we discuss:• The Keep Your Pay Act and how it could affect American households• Why Senator Booker believes the tax system is “rigged” against working families• The rising cost of childcare and early education in America• Immigration reform and the climate of fear many immigrant families feel today• The growing power of big media companies and why independent creators matter• The economic implications of the war in Iran, including rising energy costs• Whether Booker sees a presidential run in his futureCalculate how much Booker's proposed tax act could save your household.
