NBC Connecticut Host: Mike Hydeck

Sen. Saud Anwar (D-South Windsor), shares his experience trying to get out of Iraq once Israel began firing rockets at Iran. He also tells Mike why he believes Governor Lamont should not run for a third term, and weighs in on the role of private equity in health care.

Len Fasano, the former Republican leader in the Senate, takes us back to 2017 when the historic bi-partisan budget agreement was crafted, and why he thinks those fiscal guardrails do not need to be adjusted.

NBC CT Political Reporter Mike Savino reports on how the state will spend money from another massive settlement with opioid manufacturers. During the session that just ended, lawmakers considered allowing overdose prevention sites, also known as safe injection sites, but the provision was stripped from the public health omnibus bill before it passed. Mike recently visited a facility in Rhode Island to see how it works.
