On The Air: Isaac Orr Talks California Car Mandates With Mark Allen on Thief River Falls Radio

Last Friday I had the pleasure of speaking with Mark Allen about the Walz Administration’s attempt to force California car regulations onto Minnesota drivers.

The interview was a follow up to the informational events Center of the American Experiment and the Minnesota Auto Dealers Association held throughout the entire state to educate Minnesotans on why these regulations are all pain and no gain. Enjoy the interview!
