Dr Miguel Cardona is the Commissioner of Education, and he joined Gary Byron on the air to talk about his reaction to Gov. Lamont's order to keep schools closed for the rest of the year.

Gary chatted with author James Conroy about the socialist takeover in the US, and his book Plucking the Eagle. Then state rep Joe Hoxa from the 78th district called in to discuss EV mandates, early voting, and SEBAC. Then former  Republican CT Secretary of State Candidate Dominic Rapini came in studio to discuss voter fraud in CT and around the nation.

A proposed bill PB317 has been written by CT State Senator Eric Berthel which proposes to require insurance companies to cover bariatric surgery benefits. Despite coverage by Medicaid and Medicare in our state, the majority of private insurance plans do not offer bariatric surgery as a benefit. When the ACS was passed by Obama, the essential benefit in Connecticut was based on the current coverage by our biggest HMO: Connecticare. As a result Obamacare has NOT covered bariatric surgery. Most insurers do not and have not been forced to offer the benefit. Many of our patients have switched to Medicaid for coverage despite having good jobs. This has caused a burden to taxpayers. State employees also have bariatric surgery coverage. Darren Tishler spoke to Brad and Paul about it
