Florida House Representative and U.S. Senate Candidate Angie Nixon is on the pod!

They then welcome Rep. Nixon (14:07) who talks about her background and how that led to her advocacy for public education and her concern about the school to prison pipeline (17:54). She talked about her early introduction to public service (21:52), bills she has fought for during her six years in the Florida House (24:36), and the relationship between low lawmaker salaries and out-of-touch lawmakers (28:48).
