Buss shares his extensive work with rural school districts and years of work trying to provide these shelters. He explains what the BRIC program is, why the BRIC was cancelled by FEMA which has resulted in loosing between $24-30 million in funding for rural school districts in Wisconsin and what they plan to do next. Steve Scaffidi host of WTMJ's the Political Power Hour joins Kristin to talk about Trumps Tariffs and his recent announcement to hold off on most tariffs for 90 days.
