Why premiums are so high in some states

It's Casual Friday on the Majority Report.

Today's episode features two pre-taped interviews.

Sam interviews American Prospect writer Maureen Tkacik about her piece "The Obamacare Boiler Room," exploring Florida's long-standing tradition of defrauding Medicare and Medicaid.

Majority Report team member Gino Raidy, proprietor of Gino's Blog, speaks with Dean Fuleihan, Zohran Mamdani's pick for Deputy Mayor. The two Lebanese immigrants share their love for their home country's cuisine and discuss the challenges ahead for the incoming Mamdani administration.

All that and more.

The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.
