Jim invites Candidates for the 90th Wisconsin State Assembly elections Amaad Rivera-Wagner & Jessica Henderson to the show to take a break from the Presidential side of politics to think and discuss more locally.
Jim asks Amaad what can he bring to the Assembly and for the District he'll be representing and how he plans to work with other people. Amaad says clear and concise communication with each other makes it possible to pass really big things for the area together. A cornerstone of what Amaad is running for is housing and discuss the lack of housing available as the area continues to grow. Not only building more housing but affordable housing.
Then Jim invites Candidate for the 90th Assembly District Jessica Henderson to share what she can do for the Assembly and for the district. Jim asks Jessica about local issues such as legalizing Marijuana, education vouchers, and creating more jobs in Green Bay. Jessica shares what motivates her to run.
