This hour, how much power should a president have to take military action?

Coming up we speak with Connecticut Senator Christopher Murphy, who argues that presidents have accumulated too much leeway to take military action.

He wants to shift some of that authority to Congress.

And the latest on efforts to get an infrastructure bill through the senate.

Guests:

  • Christopher Murphy -- Connecticut Senator
  • Bilal Sekou -- Associate Professor of Politics and Government at the University of Hartford’s Hillyer College
