#125 - Greta Kemp Martin
10/25/23 • 75 min
Join us for a candid conversation with Mississippi Attorney General candidate, Greta Kemp Martin. Greta, with her deep-rooted history in law and her passionate advocacy at Disability Rights Mississippi, touches upon her perceived palpable shift in the voting mindset, where voters are choosing the individual over party lines.
In the course of our discussion, we try to unravel the complexities surrounding the Dobbs Decision and the Attorney General's office. Greta's observations suggest a questionable representation of the Department of Human Services by a private firm and an alarming absence of the Attorney General's office in the investigation. She also shares her perspective on key issues like gun laws, felon rights, and the inappropriate use of taxpayer dollars by Attorney General Fitch to manipulate other states' policymaking.
We then delve into the heart of Mississippi, unearthing the challenges that the state grapples with, such as dire political polarization, failing mental health systems, and the dire need for community-centered resources in rural locales. Greta provides her insights into these pressing issues and articulates her plans to confront them, should she be elected as Attorney General. This episode offers a rare, insightful glimpse into the heart of Mississippi politics, making it an essential listen for anyone wishing to understand the political undercurrents better.
