John’s guest this wee is Michigan State Representative Brad Paquette of the 78th District. They explore the fascinating path he took from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to the Southwesternmost corner of the Lower Peninsula. He moved from teacher to state legislator. They talk over three of the critical areas of Michigan life today: the troubled educational system, the looming disaster of record-high water on the Great Lakes and the inland waterways of the State and the ever troublesome issue of the construction, repair and maintenance of our highways, as well as how to fund them.
