How to Save Our State Governments with Daniel Squadron

Our federal government is clearly, visibly fucked on too many levels to count. Even scarier? Our state legislatures have immense power and far fewer eyes on them, making them even easier to sway. But this also means they’re attainable targets for us, the people, to organize and take back. This week, Adam speaks with former New York senator Daniel Squadron, author of The Fourth Branch: How State Government Can Save Our Union, about how a focus on our states might just be what we need to save democracy.
