We’re deep into campaign season, and State Senator Lana Theis – a Republican who represents a part of Livingston County – recently accused Michigan Democrats of wanting to groom and sexualize children in a fundraising email. She mentioned Senator Mallory McMorrow by name, and McMorrow responded with a speech on the Senate floor that subsequently went viral online. Today, we talk to McMorrow about her reaction. 

GUEST: 

Mallory McMorrow, state Senator (D-MI 13th District)
