State Sen. Kelda Roys joins us live to discuss the first week of her run for governor — the issues that propelled her to join the race and why she thinks she’ll emerge from a growing field of Democratic candidates seeking the nomination next year. And UpNorthNews reporter Salina Heller shares the story of a Wisconsin mom whose adult son demonstrates how Medicaid is an essential service that allows people to have dignity and jobs instead of being placed in institutions, people the president considers disposable as he moves Medicaid funding into tax breaks for the very wealthy. Plus, Jimmie Kaska breaks down how the Packers broke down in the final minutes against Cleveland.
