Episode description

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass had a meeting of the minds this week at City Hall about homelessness. Along with other city mayors, they meet with Biden senior adviser Tom Perez.

Perez preached optimism, not futility, when discussing LA homelessness. When is a fed not a fatalist?

"Inside the Issues: The Podcast" hosts Alex Cohen and Sara Sadhwani examine this "Kumbaya" attitude change and what it means for SoCal.

Plus, a look at new polls. One shows former President Donald Trump has a lead among Republican voters in California for the March 5 primary. The other looks at the Senate race heating up in California and shows Rep. Adam Schiff leading.

And the hot labor summer is now dragging into fall. This week, President Biden congratulated dockworkers on their contract, but what about all the other work stoppage?

Finally, the campaign of a politician running for office sent out the wrong photo of the candidate. How Kevin Sabellico reacted to the mess up and what it says about him.
