Republican Senator Roger Marshall Talks Iran, DHS Funding

About this episode

Senator Roger Marshall discusses the Iran war, DHS funding, and cannabis rescheduling with hosts Kailey Leinz and Joe Mathieu.

Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS), a member of the Senate Agriculture and Budget Committees, defends staying the course in the Iran war, saying the US must “finish the job” to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran even as Strait of Hormuz disruptions push up fuel costs and strain farmers. He also says Congress must pass a reconciliation bill “sooner than later” to keep DHS funded, signaling a vote-a-rama could begin as soon as Wednesday night, and warns he would be “disappointed” by cannabis rescheduling. He speaks with Kailey Leinz and Joe Mathieu on the late edition of Bloomberg’s "Balance of Power." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
