Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Jonathan Capehart
This week, the District’s Public Service Commission rejected a proposed deal between D.C. based Pepco Holdings and the Chicago energy giant Exelon. Opposition was strong among officials and consumer advocates, but the decision still took many by surprise. Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and New Jersey all previously approved the deal. We explore what the decision means for the multibillion-dollar deal.
