We recorded this podcast at our 2017 Re-Wire Policy Conference with a panel of four Republican Representatives. We hear from Rep. Melanie Stambaugh, the youngest member of the Legislature, followed by Rep. Bruce Chandler, one of the longest serving members of the House. Rep. Dick Muri provides us a high-level overview of what the House Republicans plan to focus on in 2018. Rep. Norma Smith concludes the panel, getting a little more in the weeds.

Rep. Smith sums up her policy vision nicely: “When you think vision I want you to think just two letters: TD…I want you to think ‘Three Decades.’ I believe policy needs to be made in the context of looking out over several decades and seeing it’s consequence because we have a duty, we have an obligation to inspire another generation to believe again in the essential work of government.”

Take a listen and stay tuned! We’ll be releasing the Democrat counterpart in a few weeks.
