Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Washingtonians waiting to testify on the Initiative 77 repeal effort.
Two hot-button topics have landed on the D.C. Council’s docket this week. Councilmembers took steps to overturn Initiative 77, a ballot measure that increased the tipped minimum wage. And they considered a bill that would curb short-term home rentals. Both issues have brought out passionate supporters and opponents. Kojo gets the latest from WAMU reporter Martin Austermuhle.
