Show notes:
State Sen. Ryan McDougle (R-Mechanicsville) provides a General Assembly update from the State Senate.
Specifically, McDougle talks transportation, state constitutional amendments (including ‘Right to Work’ and ‘Repeal’), and Sen. Janet Howell’s Privileges and Elections Committee.
McDougle discusses the politics of transportation and what can be expected from Senate Democrats on the transportation debate (read: gas tax) and the politics of Howell’s “let them eat cake” moment. He says under Republican management in the State Senate, the authority of sub-committees will be diminished.
