COLAB, the Coalition of Labor, Agriculture and Business, hosted Columnist Dan Walters who spoke about life in California with Governor Gavin Newsom in Sacramento. He said Gavin Newsom is outwardly more liberal than the “older” Jerry Brown.
Walters said the new Democratic majority is having an impact in Sacramento. He said Democrats are pushing programs for universal health care, free college education and a plethora of tax programs.
District Attorney Dan Dow said those in attendance at the COLAB dinner represented a wide range of political views, but shared a concern for business growth, common sense policies by county government. public safety and holding local officials accountable.
