MENGENAI EPISOD INI
It was a good week for the state GOP. Shortly after a U.S. Supreme Court decision opened the door to widespread redistricting and gutted the legal basis for minority access districts, Florida legislators adopted a new congressional map that all but eliminates Democratic power, cutting blue-leaning districts in half, to just four of the state’s 28 House seats. We talk to state Republican Party Chair Evan Power and State Rep. Christine Hunschofsky about how the Supreme Court and state lawmakers have reshaped the political landscape and what it means for party power going forward. We also get political analysis from attorney and public policy expert Rick Mullaney about how both developments fit into Florida history and how they may shape its future.
Guests:
- Florida Rep. Christine Hunschofsky, D-Parkland, incoming House Democratic leader-designate
- State Republican Party Chair Evan Power
- Rick Mullaney, executive director of the Haskell Public Policy Institute at Jacksonville University
In our monthly House Call with Dr. Joe Sirven, we discuss how political pressure is putting psychedelics on the fast track, a surging tick season (and attendant conspiracy theories) and a suspected outbreak of hantavirus on a cruise ship that has left three passengers dead.
Guest: Dr. Joe Sirven, Mayo Clinic neurologist and host of WJCT’s What’s Health Got To Do With It?
