Ep.5 -Sen. Hob Bryan Civil Conversations with David Baria Podcast

    • News

Responding to people calling his brand of legislating “liberal,” Senator Hob Bryan stated simply: “Those aren’t liberal ideas. They aren’t conservative ideas. They are neither Democratic nor Republican ideas. They are just common sense.” Serving since 1984, Senator Bryan and his common sense approach has developed quite the reputation. A graduate of the University of Virginia School of Law, he is considered brilliant by his colleagues at the capital, yet somewhat frustrating to work with when agitated. And these days, Bryan has plenty keeping himself and others agitated. In this episode of Civil Conversations, David sits down with Senator Bryan to discuss, among other things, a broken legislative process in Mississippi. Taking us behind the scenes, they talk openly at how frustrating and baffling it is watching the Lt. Governor and Speaker of the House continually make decisions regarding important legislation exclusively behind closed doors. Listen closely as David and Senator Bryan discuss how such a clandestine and exclusionary approach to legislating came to a head over the funding of public education. This episode of Civil Conversations begins to shed some light on who is responsible for keeping Mississippi on the bottom, and that just might agitate some folks.
