It's time again for our weekly political roundup and analysis of national, state and local political stories — with an eye toward how they might affect Houston and Texas.

This week, we discuss Congress coming back this week from its spring recess, the 100-day milestone of Donald Trump’s presidency, growing tensions with North Korea, and proposed legislation that would end local regulation of ride-hailing companies.

Joining us for this week’s discussion are: Jay Aiyer, of Texas Southern University and co-host of the Party Politics podcast from Houston Public Media; Elizabeth Simas from the University of Houston; and Andrew Schneider, politics and government reporter for News 88.7
