Rep. Rosa DeLauro on Congressional Chaos

About this episode

Guest Host Norm Ornstein welcomes Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) to cover all the news happening in Congress. We cover the war in Iran and how it’s driving prices up across the country and the world, consequently having a major impact on Americans' wallets. DeLauro calls this a "war of choice" and discusses what Congress can realistically do to invoke the War Powers Act and reclaim its constitutional authority. DeLauro is the Ranking Member of the House Appropriations Committee and reveals how the Trump administration is taking the power of the purse away from Congress.  Plus, the midterms are rapidly approaching. Can Democrats make enough gains to slow down the Trump administration? SUPPORT THE SHOW BY VISITING OUR SPONSORS: Refresh your wardrobe with Quince!
