Summary: This weekend, Glen talks about President Obama’s decision to unilaterally change immigration law and issue 5 million work permits to individuals that Congress has already said cannot work in this country.  Glen also talks about the latest news related to the Keystone XL pipeline.

In 2006, Glen co-founded Meakem Becker Venture Capital, a firm that invests in early stage start up companies.  More recently, Glen has founded and is the Chief Executive Officer of a new internet company calledForever.com.  Concerned about the liberal political agenda that had gripped the United States and his home state of Pennsylvania, Glen launched the radio program, “Glen Meakem on the Weekend” in 2008.
