Ms. Vanos Goes To Tallahassee — Three Takeaways From An Advocacy Trip To The State Capital

Steph and Eddie kick off the show discussing a local ICE protest, a special election victory in Texas, news that Ron DeSantis is now going to take federal money for taxpayer-funded vouchers, and watching her daughter give public comment. We then move on to the heart of the show: Steph’s takeaways on a recent advocacy trip to our state’s capital, Tallahassee. We start with the fallout from the state’s taxpayer-funded voucher program (20:48), what it’s like in the room in her meetings with lawmakers (27:00), and the state’s response to Schools of Hope (33:25). Finally, Eddie lets out a little steam from his beer league hockey trials and tribulations—plus Eddie and Steph give a couple movie recommendations (46:16).
