As the federal shutdown drags into its third week, Congresswoman Susie Lee joins co-host Dayvid Figler to break down the political deadlock paralyzing Washington and its very real consequences for Nevadans. Representing a swing district that backed Trump in 2024, Lee calls out Republican leadership for refusing to negotiate, citing looming healthcare premium hikes that could devastate working families. Lee also addresses intra-party tensions after Senator Cortez Masto broke ranks to support the GOP-backed spending bill, and opens up about her own bipartisan efforts — and frustrations — as a member of the Problem Solvers Caucus. From the broader collapse of congressional cooperation to the local pain felt by furloughed federal workers, this conversation captures a key moment in a deepening national crisis.
