Guest: Evan Dannels

That sputtering sound you’re hearing is coming from Republicans stammering about how their big bloated boondoggle of a budget bill doesn’t actually cut Medicaid benefits to deserving Americans—when it actually does. Bigly. In fact, we need to correct our language from yesterday on just how much will be cut from the stable, affordable healthcare coverage that millions of working families rely on for security. We’ll talk to a Madison area chef about why small business owners want the Legislature to stop its attempt to kill a working program that makes childcare more affordable. Also: We again torture our poor Wisconsin Rapids friend Melissa Kaye about her (cue dramatic music) Pigeon Quest!
