What to Watch in the States with Legislative Leaders

 

In this week’s special episode, host and NewDEAL CEO Debbie Cox Bultan welcomes legislative leaders from blue, red, and purple states for a conversation on their priorities for 2023, how legislative strategy differs when in the minority, and how to find compromise. She is joined by Connecticut Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff, Pennsylvania House Majority Whip Jordan Harris, Iowa Senate Democratic Leader Zach Wahls, and Florida House Democratic Whip Christine Hunschofsky, who outline their goals for addressing our nation’s most significant policy challenges, including affordable housing, voting rights, economic growth, broadband access, and more. And they offer optimism on the continued national impact of new federal funds approved under the Biden Administration, no matter the politics of a given state. Tune in for this insightful conversation and to hear different perspectives on what we can expect from state legislatures in the coming months.
