Congress is back in session and as usual… tons to do and not much time. Top on lawmakers’ to-do list is some type of action on gun control after mass shootings that happened in Texas and Ohio. Democrats are ramping up impeachment talks once again, and another shutdown could be on the horizon. Melanie Zanona, congressional reporter at Politico, joins us for the top things to watch for as Congress gets back to work.
Next, as vaping related illnesses and deaths are getting headlines, the FDA is cracking down on Juul, one of the top e-cigarette companies. The FDA has said that “Juul has ignored the law” because is marketed its products as less harmful than cigarettes without FDA approval. Marisa Fernandez, reporter at Axios, joins us for the vape crackdown.
Finally, there is a growing trend of workers who are leaving big cities and taking their jobs with them to smaller cities. The increase of employees working remotely is causing places like Boise, Idaho to grow fast. And while some people find a higher quality of life by moving, these cities are also going through growing pains. Ben Eisen, reporter for the WSJ, joins us for more.
