Lindsay Killen, vice president for strategic outreach and communications at the Mackinac Center joins us today on The Daily Signal Podcast to talk about how Michigan is responding to the coronavirus crisis. Plus, Rea Hederman, executive director of the economic research center and vice president of policy at The Buckeye Institute, joins me for a second segment to talk about how Ohio is adapting to help small business owners and health care providers during COVID-19.
