About this listen
On the radio show this week we dive into the freedom of speech, the constitutional crisis we find ourselves in, and the role of public schools in defending our democracy. We hear about the rising costs of afterschool care and how to advocate for these programs to your lawmakers. We cover the current political climate and the impact on families, federal workers, and public services. Finally, we discuss the economic and social benefits of Head Start, and how to fight back against recent attacks. Following that segment, we look into hearing the inside scoop from someone who is inside the beltway, what is actually happening and why, and then we close the show, looking into Head Start, SNAP, health care, how those programs are under attack, and how we can really work together to stop the cuts and to build a better nation with a better tomorrow.
