We discuss the balance between environmental policy and economic impact, why the EPA should focus on reducing pollution and smog rather than pushing politically motivated regulations, and what this could mean for businesses, consumers, and the future of clean air and water.

Next, we dive into a controversial proposal from an Illinois lawmaker that would allow mental health episodes as a defense for assaulting police officers.
