What's on the radio today: Nov. 11, 2019
Here’s your radio lineup for Monday, Nov. 11.
9 a.m. — MPR News with Kerri Miller
Democratic Rep. Angie Craig took office in January of this year, after narrowly defeating Republican incumbent Jason Lewis in the 2018 elections. Her win flipped Minnesota’s 2nd District, which had been solidly red since 2001.
Last month, the Republican National Committee began targeting the congresswoman, with television ads to say she “votes with the radicals” and “wastes taxpayer money” by supporting the impeachment hearings against President Trump. Craig says it’s true that she voted in favor of the impeachment inquiry but that’s just a small portion of what she’s doing in Washington.
