Californians will be deciding on the fate of 12 ballot propositions this year. And there are some biggies, including whether we should allow affirmative action in higher education, whether some cash bail should be replaced by a risk assessment system and whether Uber and Lyft drivers should be classified as independent contractors.
Let Larry Mantle, host of our public affairs show AirTalk, and a panel of expert guests walk you through the basics of the props, including:
- What they are
- Pros and cons
- What’s at stake
They’ll also took questions live. this event began at 6:30 p.m. and ended at 7:45 p.m. A replay will be available shortly.
