VENTSday: Spending Out Taxes + "Sit/Lie" Laws

April 15th is here, and with it our annual deadline for filing income tax returns.  How would you like your federal or state income taxes spent?  That's one topic of VENTSday this week. 

The other: "sit-lie" ordinances, that make it illegal for homeless (or any other) people to block sidewalks by sitting or lying down. 

Our weekly VENTSday segment puts the listeners front and center. We throw a pair of topics on the table, and let callers and emailers vent--politely--on those topics.

Topics range from the global to the hyper-local, and all responsible opinions are welcome. We bring the topics, you bring the opinions.

It's VENTSday on The Jefferson Exchange, and you participate by calling 1-800-838-3760 or emailing JX@jeffnet.org.
