Show Notes

Rep. My-Linh Thai drops by Capitol Ideas every now and then, and it’s always an interesting and thought-provoking conversation. This time around the yawning chasm between this Washington and the other one, and its effects on her 41st district and the state Legislature, color some, but not all, of our talk. We also hear about her work as deputy majority leader, some key legislation, the Year of the Fire Horse, and the legislative process. It’s a good episode.
