Dr. Alan Chartock

WAMC's Dr. Alan Chartock comments on Texas Senator Ted Cruz's decision to fly to Cancún Wednesday, as his state grappled with winter storms that left millions without power or water. The cold snap has killed at least 47 people, many of them Texans, since Sunday. Dr. Chartock also discusses climate change, and the growing criticism of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo for his administration's handling of COVID-19 death data in nursing homes. 

Dr. Alan Chartock is professor emeritus at the University at Albany. He hosts the weekly Capitol Connection series, heard on public radio stations around New York. The program, for almost 12 years, highlighted interviews with Governor Mario Cuomo and now continues with conversations with state political leaders. Dr. Chartock also appears each week on The Media Project and The Roundtable and offers commentary on Morning Edition, weekdays at 7:40 a.m.
