Ally Audio: All About the Filibuster

On this week's episode, Noah and Scott break down the public financing of the Grand Sierra Resort's arena project, and talk about the long and complicated history of the filibuster, as U.S. Senator Cory Booker addresses the floor in a record-breaking speech lasting more than 25 hours.

Then, civics reporter Alex Couraud joins the show to discuss the latest from the Nevada Legislative Session.

This show is made possible by Press Forward, a national coalition investing more than $500 million to strengthen local newsrooms and close longstanding gaps in journalism coverage.
