This session of the radio show shares my conversation with our State Senator Becca Rausch. We had our conversation via the Zoom Conf bridge on Wednesday, October 14, 2026.
We cover some legislative updates and close with encouragement to prepare for the ballot questions, be patient, the ballot is 2 full sheets of heavy ballot paper with at least 3 sides of information.
The recording runs about 36 minutes, so let’s listen to my conversation with Senator Rausch.
