Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
D.C. Congressional Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton and Montgomery County Councilmember Roger Berliner
Virginia lawmakers came to an agreement on an expansion of the state’s Medicaid program, opening it up to an additional 400,000 residents. The debate over ending the tiered minimum wage program for tipped workers heats up in Washington. And the Maryland gubernatorial race get shaken up with a debate, a lawsuit, and Governor Hogan stepping into the fray with a new commercial. All of that, plus we hear from D.C.’s delegate to Congress Eleanor Holmes Norton about her re-election campaign and Montgomery County Councilmember Roger Berliner on his bid to be County Executive.
Sorting political fact from fiction, and having fun while we’re at it. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies and personalities of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
