Episode description
#25: The L.A. City Council has a LOT of power... But how do their decisions actually affect the lives of Angelenos? And how is it determined what areas of L.A. they control? HTLA host Brian De Los Santos is looking for answers. He speaks with Caitlin Hernández, a reporter for LAist who's been been following the City Council and the fallout from the leaked tape scandal.
Also, don't forget -- there's an election happening. If you live in L.A. city, there are four council seats on the ballot.
Guests:
Caitlin Hernández, LA explained reporter for LAist
José Del Rio, political consultant active in the 2021 redistricting process.
