Governor Inslee has issued new restrictions in Washington state on bars, restaurants, weddings, funerals and gyms.

Co-host of KIRO Nights Mike Lewis joins reporter Aaron Granillo to talk about the impact in a very real way, since he owns a bar himself.

Plus, extra federal unemployment benefits are set to expire at the end of July, but Republicans and Democrats can’t get on the same page about what to extend and how. Mike and Aaron discuss the standoff over an extra $600 a week.

Ross: Are we killing car culture? Or is car culture killing the US?

Ross: Voters can help cull bad politicians from the herd early

Let's remember that just about every occupant of a higher office once occupied a lower office, and was put there by us, Dave Ross says.
