The House floor during opening day of the Vermont Legislature on Jan. 9, 2019. We're talking with Republican leaders in the statehouse to get their thoughts as the legislative session nears its end.

Lawmakers are wrapping up the legislative session and we're talking with Republican leaders in the House and Senate about what they want to accomplish in their final days in Montpelier. 

Senate Republican leader of Caledonia and House Minority Leader of Rutland join Vermont Edition to discuss the status of minimum wage, gun control, marijuana regulation and other bills.

And they'll share their thoughts on what progress has - or hasn't - been made on making Vermont a more affordable state.

Broadcast live on Friday, May 17, 2019 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.

Bob Kinzel has been covering the Vermont Statehouse since 1981 � longer than any continuously serving member of the Legislature. With his wealth of institutional knowledge, he answers your questions on our series, "Ask Bob."
Matt Smith worked for ¿ªÔÆÌåÓý from 2017 to 2023 as managing editor and senior producer of Vermont Edition.
