The AFP on WREL: Reform challenge will go all the way

Chris Graham

Editor Chris Graham joins WREL’s “Online with Jim Bresnahan” to talk Virginia news and politics.

The segment begins with a discussion of the ruling by a federal judge in Virginia that the health-care reform signed into law in March is unconstitutional. Chris breaks down where the case is likely to go from here.

Next up is a look at a proposal from Gov. Bob McDonnell to slash funding in the state budget for public broadcasting. Chris offers analysis on where that is likely to go in the 2011 Virginia General Assembly session.

We wrap with talk about the white stuff falling down around the Valley and Central Virginia. Is VDOT prepared?
