On today’s Closer Look with Rose Scott, we discuss a new website that breaks down how the trade war is costing each state and each household. According to Tariffs.org, Georgia ranks fourth among the hardest hit states by the tariffs, at a cost of $20 Billion or $4,771 per household. Bryan Riley is the Director of the Free Trade Initiative for the National Taxpayers Union Foundation. He joins the conversation to explain which Georgia industries are paying the highest price.

 

Then, Atlanta is known for its pop and hip hop fingerprint on the music industry. But a new series is letting music fans experience another Atlanta connection and that's to electronic music. WABE’s Sawyer Vanderwerff explores WetWare, an immersive, live audiovisual concert series that’s taking place in the Little Five Points neighborhood.
