Senator Kris Dassler-Alfheim
The Big, Brutal Budget Battle
Maggie pulls back the curtain on the latest political chaos, dissecting the high-stakes budget showdowns unfolding in both Washington D.C. and Wisconsin. She takes a hard look at the “big brutal bill” championed by the MAGA regime - a proposal that threatens to slash healthcare access, dismantle childcare programs, and further pad the pockets of billionaires, all at the expense of working families. Plus, Senator Kristin Dassler Alfheim (SD 18) and Dr. Kristin Lyerly join Maggie for another edition of "Broad Appeal." They expose the dangers of partisan gridlock, the corrosive effects of gerrymandering, and the urgent need for bipartisan solutions. Policies loom that could upend middle-class stability. They tell us to demand accountability and transparency from those in power.
