WASHINGTON, April 25,

and policy from both sides of the aisle to our listeners during
this critical year."

while bringing listeners firsthand knowledge of how these decisions
get made," said Julia Pyper, co-host
of Political Climate and vice president of public affairs at

that will truly shape the future of the nation."
Leading up to the 2024 election, Political Climate aims
to cut through partisan politics and get straight to the
issues.

like to negotiate and pass legislation. I'm looking forward to
bringing my perspective and knowledge about Washington to the podcast this year," said
