@ISSUE • Storm Relief Veto Controversy • $7.4B State Budget • $2K Teacher Pay Raise • SHIELD Act • Pharmacy Benefit Managers • Supreme Court Redistricting

from @ISSUE

The final week of the legislative session is upon us. Analysts Brandon Jones and Rebekah Staples join host Wilson Stribling to discuss the state’s $7.4 billion budget agreement, a smaller-than-hoped-for teacher pay raise, and the SHIELD Act, designed to ensure all voters are U.S. citizens. They also look at Governor Tate Reeves’ veto of a winter storm relief measure, and the confusion caused by a wording error in that bill. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
