Week 7 Wrap: We're Halfway There
Week 7 of Indivisible means we've made it to the midway point in Trump's first 100 days in office. (If you're really keen on counting down his full presidential term, there's a calendar for that.)Â
We started the week on Monday with a call out to our listeners: What issues do you care about the most in this administration?
#IndivisibleRadio The ACA and the attack on the environment mobilized me. I am now the Co-Pres of a local Democratic Women's Club. TY!

On Tuesday, host Brian Lehrer took a broad look at how the term "nationalism" has changed for Republicans and Democrats since Trump has taken office.
Wednesday's show addressed issues Conservatives have with the GOP's proposed health care bill. Host Charlie Sykes offered listeners a chance to chime in with ways they think Obamacare can be improved upon.
And Thursday's host Kerry Miller tapped into the sentiments of millennial voters -- poised to become America's largest voting bloc by 2020.
@KerriMPR As a Millenial I see the election as just one more thing and we are going to have to clean up #IndivisibleRadio
