Podcasts about state level

On this week's Voice of the People our featured presentation is a speech given by Montana House Representative Zooey Zephyr titled “Building Socialism at the State Level.” Our word of the week is “gerrymandering" and we will hear an exclusive report of a trial in North Carolina challenging the state's voting districts by our own Linda Gillison. We will then look at two ICE arrests in Montana and what people might want to do to oppose ICE activity in Montana.

Brett Barker, PharmD, joined Over the Counter to discuss Iowa's recent signing of PBM reform and what it might mean for pharmacies and other states looking to enact similar legislation.

Elected officials in Congress are still considering an amendment in President Donald Trump's so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” that would limit states' abilities to regulate artificial intelligence. It's a controversial move according to one Virginia state delegate. Brad Kutner has more. 

Why is the production of housing, especially new housing in big cities, so expensive? Why doesn't inclusionary zoning make our cities more affordable? How can cities amend the building code itself to help in housing production, and even make for better quality apartments?To answer these questions and more, I had a long and code-nerdy chat with Emily Hamilton. Emily is the Senior Research Fellow and Director of the Urbanity Project at Mercatus Center, George Mason University. That's a long title and way of saying, she's someone who does a LOT of research into housing policy, and really knows her stuff.I've been in this game long enough to be able to detect people who act like they're serious about housing policy, but really aren't. As in, they really don't much about how housing gets built, who builds it, why they build it, and why they might build more. Emily is not one of those people. She has a clear interest in getting more of all kinds of housing built, to help with the price crunch that exists in so many markets.If you want to talk code reform and housing policy, this is your episode.Find more content on The Messy City on Kevin's Substack page.Music notes: all songs by low standards, ca. 2010.

Ever wondered how to turn national physical activity guidelines into meaningful community change? This eye-opening conversation reveals the roadmap for developing state-level physical activity plans that make movement a priority where Americans actually live, work, and play.Wellness Paradox host Michael Stack shares the journey of building the Michigan Moves Coalition, showing that creating transformative plans doesn't require extensive resources—just passionate advocates willing to collaborate. "All health is local," highlighting why adapting evidence-based national strategies to meet specific community needs is so critical for improving public health outcomes.The process follows a clear framework: first, building a coalition of physical activity stakeholders; second, partnering with state health departments; and third, recruiting sector leaders across healthcare, education, parks and recreation, faith communities, and more. What began in Michigan with just six organizations has grown to nearly 60 representatives from over 50 major institutions—all committed to making the active choice the easy choice.With over 80% of America's $4.9 trillion healthcare spending going toward chronic disease management, these state-level planning efforts represent not just a public health necessity but an economic imperative. The beauty lies in their accessibility—you don't need to reinvent the wheel, just adapt existing frameworks to your local context while focusing on measurable wins that build momentum.Ready to start a movement in your community? Download the National Physical Activity Plan from the show notes page and connect with other passionate advocates. The Physical Activity Alliance stands ready to support initiatives across all states with resources and guidance.

With the rise of anti-trans attacks on the federal level, state-level advocacy is becoming even more crucial. This week, Imara talks with leaders working to build safety and belonging for trans people in two very different states. First she's joined by the Executive Director of One Colorado, Nadine Bridges, who unpacks what it means to be a “shield state” under Trump. The two discuss the role of joy in resistance, the complex political landscape of Colorado, and the impact of changes to corporate DEI policies. Imara then takes a look at South Dakota where community health advocate Jack Fonder has been working under harsh political conditions for years. He shares stories of survival, hope, and the power of creating new spaces for in-person community building.Content notice: The second conversation in this episoder contains references to suicidal ideation.

Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by Suzanne Anglewicz, Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever's first-ever employee hired to focus exclusively on state-level conservation policy. Both native Michiganders, St.Pierre and Anglewicz share some fun banter over being long-suffering Detroit Lions fans while discussing the nuances of playing offense and defense on conservation legislation at state capitols. Episode Highlights: • The conversation kicks off with Anglewicz's rundown of her career that includes a bachelor's degree in political theory and constitutional democracy, a law degree, and more than a decade as the manager of field operations for the grassroots division of the National Rifle Association. • Anglewicz provides an update on Kansas House Bill 2063, introduced by Kansans for Conservation last week. If passed, the legislation would provide dedicated funding for wildlife habitat and natural resources in Kansas. Today, Kansas is one of only 15 states without a dedicated conservation fund. • The discussion also includes fun banter about shooting “cosmic clays,” the need for more hunters to run for elected offices, and antiquated state laws around charitable gambling. onX Hunt is a proud supporter of Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever and they want to thank everyone who gives back to the birds we all love to hunt and the places they call home.

Debi Durham, the Director of the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) and the Iowa Finance Authority (IFA) joins Dennis to discuss the role of a state economic development director.  Fifteen years ago, what was the state of economic development? Fast forward 15 years, and how has economic development changed? Through two main divisions – business development and community development the IEDA administers almost 50 state and federal programs to assist individuals, communities, and businesses. That is a lot of plates to spin at one time. How big is the IEDA team? As a state, does Iowa target specific sectors for projects? Every state has advantages and disadvantages. How do you work to sell the sizzle for Iowa? How competitive are projects between the states? At the local level, we are used to projects from the state, utility, or rail partners. How do projects flow to the IEDA? Let's talk about the changes in the economic development landscape for projects, starting with the rise of certified sites. Incentives are always a controversial topic. How have incentives changed during your tenure, and what are your views on incentives? What advice for frontline economic development professionals do you have when competing for projects or existing industry expansions? What do you wish every economic development professional knew about when responding to RFIs? Debi, look into your crystal ball. What do you think economic development will look like in 10 years? Debi Durham Debi Durham is a longtime economic and community development professional who serves as Director of the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) and the Iowa Finance Authority (IFA). Durham was named to the positions by Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds in January 2019. Durham was first appointed to lead IEDA in 2011, and during her eight-year tenure, has turned the agency into a successful public-private partnership, landed billion-dollar economic development projects for Iowa and worked tirelessly on expanding trade and investment opportunities for the state. She prides herself on building coalitions, supporting new ventures and strengthening the state's industries and communities. Prior to joining IEDA, Durham served as president of the Siouxland Chamber of Commerce. Her several accolades include being recognized as one of the "Most Influential Business Leaders" in the 2019 Des Moines Business Record Book of Lists and receiving the Technology Association of Iowa's "Legislative Advocacy Leader" award in 2017. Durham also was recognized by the Business Record as a "Woman of Influence" in 2016. Durham holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Marketing and Management from Missouri Southern State University. The Iowa Economic Development Authority's (IEDA) mission is to strengthen economic and community vitality by building partnerships and leveraging resources to make Iowa the choice for people and business. Through two main divisions – business development and community development – IEDA administers several state and federal programs to meet its goals of assisting individuals, communities and businesses.

The Week in Sustainability November 11–15, 2024 This week: After the 2024 U.S. election, several states took significant climate action despite federal uncertainties. Washington voters upheld the Climate Commitment Act, ensuring funding for carbon reduction projects, while California approved a $10 billion resilience fund targeting wildfire prevention, water conservation, and clean energy. Hawaii launched a Climate Resiliency Fund, and Louisiana allocated renewable energy revenue for coastal restoration. In South Dakota, voters repealed a law favoring pipeline development, prioritizing landowner rights. Meanwhile, Texas reinforced fossil fuel policies, leaving climate action to local efforts.
