    License to Legislate: Rep. Jake Johnson Talks Helene, Politics, & 007 Fandom

    Rep. Jake Johnson is Western North Carolina to his core.  Born and raised in rural Polk County, he knows just about everyone in his close-knit district spanning over Rutherford, McDowell, Henderson, and his home county. The 30-year old Republican talks about his public service, including his important position as co-chair of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, also called Gov-Ops for short.   However, the conversation isn't all business as Skye and Brian discover Rep.
