There have been multiple shootings by transgender individuals over the last few years. Ken takes your calls! Ken interviews Owen Henry, NJ State Senator. Owen and Ken break down how school funding is being mismanaged in New Jersey's school districts. School districts in New Jersey must focus on ensuring that all students are proficient in speaking English. However, New Jersey's Democratic politicians have financially invested heavily in offshore windmill projects, which has exacerbated the state's energy crisis, rather than using the funds for school projects and developing a plan to reduce energy costs.
