Lisa Lucas
Taking action to protect democracy (Hour 1)
Matt Rothschild guest hosts for the day as Dom catches some sun and key lime pie. At the top of the hour, Heather duBoi Bourenane, executive director of the Wisconsin Public Education Network, joins us. Today marks the middle of Public Education Week, an annual celebration WPEN holds to honor the incredible work of our state's public schools. The week caps with a day of action to support public schools, get involved!
At the bottom of the hour, Matt talks with Lisa Lucas, from All In Wisconsin about how to take action to protect democracy. In a time when so many of us feel paralyzed by the intentionally overwhelming noise of federal chaos, we need help moving to action. Here's a helpful guide on how to get there.
