Punya Krishnappa, Affordable Care Act Deputy Campaign Manager at Organizing for America, joins the podcast to talk about her journey in electoral politics as an Indian-American growing up in Illinois. We also take Trump White House Deputy Spokeswoman, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, to task for calling Jeff Sessions a campaign “volunteer” to desperately do damage control from the fallout of his communications with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
