Show Notes

On this episode of FiredUp, Steve discusses:
- The current update on the coronavirus
- The American Rescue Plan (Covid relief) is signed into law by Pres. Biden
- KY bill making it illegal to "insult" police has a kicker in it, making it illegal to distribute anything that might be weaponized - like a bottle of water - as a Class B Misdemeanor.
- The Raise the Minimum Wage Act proposed legislation to raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2025
- Comments by Sen Ron Johnson (R-WI) saying he would have felt unsafe if BLM had stormed the building. My commentary to the Right follows the story.
