INTERVIEW: Politics + Media 101's Justin Higgins

Apr 10, 2022
51:14

On today’s podcast, we are sitting down with Justin Higgins. Justin is the host of Politics + Media 101, he led the legislative and media efforts to address Hurricane Marie as an appointed official for the Democratic Government of Puerto Rico, he has worked as a legislative assistant in the U.S. House of Representatives, as a senior research analyst for the RNC where he compiled opposition research, and — as I’m sure will be of much interest to our listeners — has actually switched political parties over the last few years.

In today's episode, we discuss the current state of Congress, whether members really read bills, how much time is spent fundraising, why he switched parties, what the future holds for Puerto Rico, and much more. You can find Justin's podcast Politics + Media 101 here.
