RAD

This month on RAD-TV we speak with Kate Logan, Director of Programming and Policy at RAD, Joshua Wronski, Executive Director of the Vermont Progressive Party, and Representative Tom Stevens, Representative of Washington-Chittenden. Our guests are joined by the host for the show, Tom Proctor!

Kate Logan discusses RAD's work on the two bills almost at the finish line, and what work is being done now to ensure that both bills make it to the Governor's desk in the next legislative session.

Josh Wronski discusses how they are preparing for the next legislative session, what other bills are going to be introduced to help workers in Vermont, and how do we avoid this happening again.

Tom Stevens lends his view to the Democrats position and what their plan is for the upcoming legislative session.

This month on RAD-TV we speak with Brian Cina, State Representative for Chittenden 6-4, and Brandon Del Pozo, Chief of Police for the City of Burlington. Host Tom Proctor discusses Mark Hughes' #EndslaveryVT initiative and why we are still talking about slavery in Vermont in 2019, and Brian Cina talks about the H.478 Bill he recently introduced to the Vermont legislature calling for a task force to study and consider a state apology and proposal for reparations for the institution of slavery.

Both guests weigh in on the effects of the drug war on minorities in Vermont, what will change with cannabis legalization and what, if anything, should be done with tax money brought in from the cannabis industry to remedy historical inequalities.

Host Grant Taylor is joined by Jeffrey Caesar and Isaac Grimm to discuss the Milk With Dignity! campaign, Zuckerman, movement building, and past and upcoming events.
