'Meet the Freshmen' Series Kicks Off with Rep. Monika Johnson-Hostler
Summary
Rep. Monika Johnson-Hostler is a freshman legislator, but she's no stranger to the General Assembly as she's been working in and around the building since 1999, when she started her career at the NC Coalition Against Sexual Assault, which is represented by New Frame.
The Wake County Democrat talks about her advocacy work, her service on the Wake County School Board, and her decision to run for the NC House when Rep. Rosa Gill announced her retirement.
Plus, a New Year ushers in a new legislative session, a new Governor and Council of State, and a new House Speaker. Skye and Brian unpack it all and talk about their predictions for the coming year.
The Do Politics Better podcast is sponsored by New Frame, the NC Travel Industry Association, the NC Beer & Wine Wholesalers Association, the NC Pork Council, and the NC Healthcare Association.
