À propos de cet audio
Rep. Travis Couture joins the show to break down the hot-button topics arising in the early days of the legislative session. Travis tells us about his background and how he became the ranking member of the House Appropriations Committee. We discuss the recent controversial rules change in the state house, in which Democrats changed a long-standing rule to make it easier for the majority to end debate on the floor. What can the minority party do now if they are silenced? How might this impact the collegiality amongst representatives and the potential for bipartisanship? Next, Travis provides insight into the budget shortfall, possible budget cuts, and the Democratic plans to increase taxes. Finally, we touch on the struggles small businesses face in Washington.
