Today’s pod is a Candid Conversation with the Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass. On day one the newly elected mayor declared a State of Emergency in LA to deal with the crisis of the unhoused, and 100 days in she’s tackling the problem with the urgency it deserves, and the heart and humility of a new kind of leader. So far the program, which is aligning every level of government, is truly making a difference, and if the second biggest city in America can pull it off, these are programs that can be rolled out across the country. Successful policies are contagious. Whether those are negative policies like abortion bans or trans bans, or positive programs like dealing with homelessness or expanded school lunch programs, once they’re working they can spread. That’s why it’s essential we put the right leaders, with the right values, in positions of power.
