Iowa Progressive Radio: This Week On The Fallon Forum
Monday –Thursday from 7:00-800 pm, join us for the fusion of politics
and civility at 98.3 WOW-FM and
on-line at 983wowfm.com.
Call (515) 312-0983 or (866) 908-TALK to participate in the
conversation. If you miss the show, you can hear it as a podcast and please
help support local progressive talk radio with a donation through Pay
Pal or by check to PO Box 13421, Des Moines, IA 50310. Dear Friends,
Monday: We'll discuss why it's important to stop the repeal movement and fight for the good things that did make it into the Affordable Care Act.
Tuesday: In light of this week's public hearing at the Statehouse, we'll discuss new developments on the proposed constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage, an issue that will continue to dominate headlines throughout the 2011 legislative session.
Wednesday: One of the first things Governor Branstad did as Iowa's “new” governor was to place more hurdles in the way of ex-convicts wanting to restore their right to vote. The decision is particularly offensive to Iowa's black leaders, who point out that while blacks comprise less than 3% of the general population, they make-up 25% of Iowa's prison population. This is a timely discussion, especially in light of February being Black History Month.
Thursday: State Rep Dan Kelley (D-Newton) gives us our weekly insider look at the Iowa House. Also, Ying Sa with Community CPA joins us for a nuts-and bolts chat on getting ready for Tax Day, including what do you need to know when it comes to choosing the right person to help you with your taxes. Please take a minute to visit the Fallon Forum website,
make a donation and help support local, progressive talk radio. We're
entirely funded by local individuals, businesses and organizations!
Thanks!
Ed Fallon
