Episode 9 -- What's the Matter with Massachusetts? -- with Jonathan Cohn of Progressive Mass.

We sit down with Jonathan Cohn, chair of the Issues and Elections committees of Progressive Mass, and talk about PM's fight for more progressive bills and processes in the Massachusetts State Legislature. Check out his take on why Massachusetts is not nearly so "liberal" in practice as we superficially assume, how the state government is designed to be opaque and unresponsive, and how to make law makers more accountable. Finally, we survey the important bills on single-payer healthcare, school funding, and ICE that are working through the legislative maze right now.
