Inside Senate Democratic Leader Sydney Batch’s Playbook

from Do Politics Better Podcast Hosted by New Frame

Sen. Sydney Batch is six months into her new role as Senate Democratic Leader, and it's obvious that her caucus is following a different strategy compared to past sessions. The western Wake Democrat returns to the pod (first appearance was in 2021) to about this new strategy and message, her approach to bipartisan negotiations, how she thinks the budget showdown will play out, and her plans for 2026 mid-terms. Skye and Brian also talk about the latest in those budget talks, a couple leadership bills on the move, Governor Stein on late night TV, Sen. Liddy Dole honored, #TOTW, hugs, and more. The Do Politics Better podcast is sponsored by New Frame, the NC Travel Industry Association, the NC Beer & Wine Wholesalers Association, the NC Pork Council, and the NC Healthcare Association.
