Inauguration Day is here. This hour, Connecticut’s 3rd District Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro joins us to talk about what this Inauguration Day is looking like, and how it has looked in years past. 

Coming up, there won’t be any Inaugural Balls or other typical Inauguration activities in Washington. In fact, President Trump won’t even be in attendance! So how will the inauguration of our new president be celebrated?

And later, we’ll talk about President Elect Biden’s plans for his first days in office. 

We want to hear from you. Are you taking some time to watch President Elect’s Joe Biden’s inauguration this morning?

  • Connecticut Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro
  • Jennifer Hopper - Southern Connecicut State University
  • Myrna E. Watanabe - Former Town Chair of Harwinton Democratic Town Committee, Elector for 2020 Electoral College
