Description
You’ll hear results from yesterday’s election in Colorado, including whether school lunches can be fully funded. Then, a Republican congressman requests the Trump administration use emergency powers to keep a coal plant running that’s scheduled to shut down. Plus, tariffs mean it may cost you more to create that perfect holiday appetizer this year, particularly if you’re using imported foods.
