A Minnesota bill that recognizes “the inherent right of uncultivated wild rice to exist and thrive” was hotly debated by legislators and testifiers last week. Join Ellie Gardey Holmes and Lyrah Margo on this episode of The Spectator P.M. Podcast as they discuss the bill’s nonsensical semantics and the crazy arguments that were made to support it.Ellie and Lyrah also discuss how Minnesota’s liberal lawmakers want to recognize a right to life for a plant, yet they refuse to recognize an unborn baby’s right to life. Tune in to hear their discussion!
