This week on the pod Virginia and Chris welcome two guests we’ve been waiting FOREVER to have on the pod. Speaker of the House Julie Fahey and Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, Ben Bowman, join us the first week of the Legislative Short Session to talk all things transportation, federal response to ICE in our communities, delivering results for working families, driving down the cost of living, federal tax code disconnect, economic development, saving Planned Parenthood, and designing a government that the people truly want and trust. AND SO MUCH MORE. This is a must listen!
And yes–we’ll be having Representative David Gomberg on the pod soon to share all about his fight against the proposed ICE Facility in Newport.
