Weekend Edition: SCOTUS, Absenteeism, Gun Violence
First - the Supreme Court heard oral arguments this week on whether former President Trump can be prosecuted over his alleged efforts to undo the 2020 election results. We talked to two legal experts about the case and its implications: Elizabeth Wydra of the Constitutional Accountability Center ... and Hans von Spakovsky of the Heritage Foundation.
Then – we turn our attention to a recent report on chronic absenteeism in America's schools. We speak with Nat Malkus of the American Enterprise Institute about his research and recent trends.
Plus – a conversation with Aswad Thomas - a victim of gun violence, longtime organizer, and vice president of the group Alliance for Safety and Justice. We'll talk about his group's efforts to expand resources for victims of violent crime.
