Coming up at 4 pm today on the Rod Arquette Show on Talk Radio 105.9 KNRS, Representative Mike Kennedy joins the show to discuss his “nay” vote against Representative Carol Spackman Moss’s bill that would have banned hand-held cell phone use while driving, especially when the bill seemingly has high public support. Plus, Matthew Anderson of the Sutherland Institute joins Rod to discuss how concerns over drilling and mining in land formerly included in the Bears Ears National Monument now seem moot after several leases in the area went without bids in a recent auction. See below for a full rundown of today’s program.
