A podcast that lifts up, instead of tearing down.

Nebraska State Senator John Cavanaugh returns to the show as his campaign for Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District gets underway. He brings special guest Rep. Mark Pocan (WI-02), who recently endorsed him in the crowded NE-02 Democratic primary race. Cavanaugh reacts to the United States and Israel’s recent military strikes on Iran and discusses the role of Congress in authorizing military force. We also discuss rising health insurance costs and new legislation aimed at protecting doctors who recommend medical cannabis in the state.
