We're halfway between the usual once-in-a-decade redrawing of congressional maps. So why are we talking about redistricting in 2025? As the White House looks for ways to keep its Republican House majority in the 2026 election, it's pressuring red states to shift their maps and squeeze out a few more GOP seats. And that risks setting off a redistricting arms race, with big red and blue states threatening to one-up each other and remake the 2026 electoral map — literally. Playbook's Adam Wren and Zack Stanton game out the scenarios in key states, and tell you what else you need to know today.

Tariffs on Mexico paused for another month If this feels like déjà vu, we hear you. Today, President Trump announced another month-long pause in the implementation of tariffs on Mexico.

Inside Sources discusses the instability and how it’s affecting Pres. Trump’s polling. On the Hill 2025: Referendum coming on public labor union bill One of the most controversial bills this legislative session was House Bill 267, which banned public labor unions from being able to collective bargain with their employers.

Hosts Greg Skordas and Morgan Lyon Cotti discuss the potential success or failure of the movement.

Hosts: Rusty Cannon and Taylor Morgan One widely discussed bill on Capitol Hill this legislative session would change how higher education funds are distributed to certain institutions and programs.

State Representative Karen Peterson joins to share updates on HB265 and discuss the broader state of education in Utah.
Hosts: Rusty Cannon and Taylor Morgan On the Hill 2025: Analyzing why the compromises on the labor union bill didn’t work Saying he was disappointed that compromise didn’t work in this case, Governor Spencer Cox signed House Bill 267, which bans public labor unions from collective bargaining. This was a pretty controversial bill – one of the first this legislative session – and had several substitutes. In the end, however, those all failed and the original bill was passed. Why? The Inside Sources hosts share their thoughts. On the Hill 2025: Updates on legislation to reinvest funds in higher education One widely discussed bill on Capitol Hill this legislative session would change how higher education funds are distributed to certain institutions and programs.

State Representative Karen Peterson joins to share updates on HB265 and discuss the broader state of education in Utah. On the Hill 2025: Bill addressing the use of artificial intelligence in education As artificial intelligence becomes easier to access, it’s called into question its role in things like education: what's the appropriate use of AI? Utah’s been leading the charge on AI legislation and rules – broadly and in other sectors – and now there’s a bill that would address AI in schools. State Representative Ariel Defay joins Inside Sources at the State Capitol to talk more about HB168.

Bill sponsor State Representative Tracy Miller joins Taylor and Rusty to discuss the specifics of the kindergarten aspects of the bill. On the Hill 2025: New grant for rural school sports Rural schools often face unique challenges – things that we on the Wasatch Front don’t think about. Whether it’s dealing with things like teacher recruitment or retention, or things like sports and facilities, rural schools could use some extra love. State Representative Tiara Auxier is running a new bill that would create a new grant program to help rural schools with sports; she joins the show to explain the motivations for it. What departments will DOGE focus on next? Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) continues to make changes in Washington, DC... pushing for layoffs across the federal government. One of President Trump’s first executive orders eliminated DEI offices in the government, but it looks like DOGE might take that a step further, focusing on employees in offices that protect equal rights. The Inside Sources hosts discuss the latest with DOGE. On the Hill 2025: Pulse check on the state of politics in Utah One segment we’ve done a few times on this show involves a group discussion with both a Republican and a Democratic member of the state legislature. It’s a good way to hear different sides of things, while also showing a bit of the camaraderie that exists among Utah lawmakers even when they don’t agree. State Rep. Casey Snider and State Rep. Andrew Stoddard join the conversation on Inside Sources. U.S. and Russian delegations make plans for peace in Ukraine... without Ukraine Peace talks today between the United States and Russia as the two countries work to come to an agreement over Ukraine.

New Attorney General Derek Brown is asking the Utah Legislature for more funding as he works to rebuild the office. He joins Inside Sources live on Capitol Hill to discuss how his office is working with lawmakers during this legislative session. On the Hill 2025: Launching a grant program to fund ‘catalyst centers’ in Utah How do you view success? For House Speaker Mike Schultz, it involves preparing youth to enter the workforce – and be able to sustain a good life – right out of high school. Today, he’s introducing a new bill into committee that would fund grant programs for local education agencies to create or expand Career and Technical Education (CTE) types of programs, something he believes will help Utah’s youth learn the skills they need to be successful. He joins Inside Sources to talk about it. On the Hill 2025: Revisions to elections laws He might be a freshman legislator but he’s not wasting any time getting to work, choosing to tackle a hot topic during the legislative session: elections. State Representative Doug Fiefia wants to speed up and clean up things on Election Day, including changing the voter registration deadline and specifying the deadlines for ballot collection. Rep. Fiefia joins us to walk us through the bill. On the Hill 2025: Addressing law enforcement performance standards In 2018, Utah banned police quotas. However, some law enforcement agencies still use a kind of quota system, and State Senator Todd Weiler wants that process to stop. Some agencies use quotas to make sure officers are doing their jobs – that they’re not just sitting around. Sen. Weiler is running a bill would create a new performance standard metric to ensure police officers are held to similar standards; he joins the show to explain. Race for a reconciliation budget continues U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson seems to be falling behind in the race to get a reconciliation package put together. Who’s in the lead? It looks like it’s the Senate – they may get the budget package created before the House. The Inside Sources hosts discuss the latest developments from over the weekend on government funding. Impending tariffs on incoming steel, aluminum While the general tariffs on Mexico and Canada are paused, other tariffs are moving forward. President Trump has announced his intention to impose a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum being imported into the United States.

Delaney Moss, Communications Intern for the House Majority joins Inside Sources to describe what it’s like to work at the Capitol during the legislative session. DOGE sets its sights on the Department of Education One of President Trump’s key platform issues has been the dismantling of the Department of Education. Late last week, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) went in and began taking control of the Department of Education. There’s been a lot of pushback, but is it warranted? Newly released test scores show that there might actually be quite a bit of room for improvement within the country’s education system.
Hosts: Rusty Cannon and Leah Murray Utah’s Legislature has a supermajority of Republicans in both the House and the Senate. This often means their priorities... take priority. State Representative Jordan Teuscher, House Rules Chair joins Inside Sources to discuss what Republicans in the House want to prioritize.

Join Jim and Greg on 3 Martini Lunch as they break down two bad martinis and a crazy one to kick off the week. They dig into two controversial Trump cabinet picks, a razor-thin GOP House majority, and the State Department's taxpayer-funded therapy sessions after Trump's win.First, they assess Trump's latest cabinet picks, praising Russ Vought for Office of Management and Budget and Dr. Marty Makary for the Food and Drug Administration, while expressing major concerns about Lori Chavez-DeRemer as Secretary of Labor due to her anti-Right to Work stance and Scott Bessent for Treasury, given his ties to George Soros.Next, they analyze the very narrow House Republican majority in the coming Congress, with three races still unresolved and three looming GOP vacancies. They explain why this slim margin leaves little room for defections or other unexpected setbacks over the next two years.Finally, they react to reports of the State Department hosting therapy sessions, including a "cry session," for employees struggling to cope with Trump's victory—on the taxpayers' dime. Jim calls for lefties to gain a little perspective on dealing with election results, while Greg suggests clearing out partisan bureaucrats in supposedly neutral roles.Please visit our great sponsors:Omahahttps://omahasteaks.comVisit OmahaSteaks.com and save 50% sitewide plus get an extra $30 off with promo code 3ML and a $30 reward card when you shop early.

Republicans could have three vacancies in the House carry over into the next congress and still maintain the majority with 218 seats.
Join Jim and Greg as they delve into the GOP's projected control of the House of Representatives, why Matt Gaetz is the wrong choice for Attorney General, and Sen. Bob Casey's far-fetched push to count ballots from unregistered voters.First, Jim and Greg discuss the now-confirmed GOP majority in the House of Representatives in the next Congress. All major networks project Republican control, and Rep. Mike Johnson seems to have a clear path to another term as Speaker of the House. Jim highlights how this solid footing is not only promising for the GOP's legislative plans but also dispels rumors that Johnson is about to face an internal party revolt.After a positive review of most Trump cabinet picks, Jim and Greg criticize the choice of Matt Gaetz for Attorney General. They agree that reforming the Justice Department and FBI is crucial but they also contend there are people who would be far better at that job and would not come with the enormous baggage that Gaetz brings with him. Finally, they call out Sen. Bob Casey, Jr. for his recount efforts in Pennsylvania despite trailing by more than 26,000 votes. Even worse, Casey's legal team is asking the courts to count ballots cast by unregistered voters. Casey's refusal to accept reality is an embarrassment and it also erodes the narrative that Democrats are supposedly the guardians of our democracy. Jim and Greg also discuss middle of the night ballot dumps and much more.Please visit our great sponsors:Lumenhttps://lumen.me/3MLVisit lumen.me/3ML for 15% off your purchase.
