Show Notes

On this episode of FiredUp, we look at preliminary maps for Redistricting in Michigan and Virginia where non-partisan committees devolved into partisan results.

We explore an alternative approach to growing a 3rd political party involving a coalition of the Asian, Hispanic and Black Caucuses of the House and Senate. If these groups would band together and vote as a unified group, the Democrat and Republican domination of the political agenda could be blunted.

What do we need to do to end the games played around the Debt Ceiling? a hard look at partisan politics and brinksmanship that's hurting America.

And an update on the Texas Abortion ban as court battles start up.
