California voters will get a chance to weigh in on sweeping changes proposed by Governor Gavin Newsom to the state's mental health funding system come March. The spending change would prioritize housing for homeless people, but children's mental health advocates fear this will cut their funding. For more on this, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart spoke with Darrell Steinberg, mayor of Sacramento and author of the Proposition 63, the Mental Health Services Act, in today's edition of the State of California.

We gave Sacramento's State Senator, Angelique Ashby and Sacramento's Mayor, Darrell Steinberg, an 'assignment' to read and report back on a provocative, new book about poverty in America. In their revealing and thoughtful conversation about the book, the senator and the mayor share how the issue of poverty has affected their own lives and their political and legislative priorities.  Click here for a closed-captioned version of this episode!  

Governor Gavin Newsom recently announced that he would convert San Quentin prison from one of the worst carceral establishments in history into a rehabilitative and instructive facility that would help incarcerated folks find their way back into society upon release. And who would he pick to head up this project? None other than Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg. We discuss the pros and cons of this storyline. We then touch on Sacramento's new least favorite council member, Lisa Kaplan from District 1. She took all the money from the region's worst people, of course, but we can't help but be interested by her peculiar/horrible behavior on the dais these days. Finally, Senator Dianne Feinstein is back, baby! And how many things does that say about our crumbling gerontocracy?

Leadership through Empowering and Connecting People with Mayor Darrell Steinberg Former President of the California State Senate and current Mayor of Sacramento, Darrell Steinberg, joins Nick on the podcast today to talk about his unique leadership style and philosophy which is characterized by his emphasis on the importance of people, relationships, humility, and the idea that leadership roles are temporary. Darrell shares his perspective on the power of positive change and the importance of organizing a team of talented people instead of slotting individuals into specific titles and responsibilities. Their discussion also explores how lessons in leadership from the public sector can be applied to building relationships and handling disagreements with dignity and mutual respect. Together, Darrell and Nick emphasize the importance of building goodwill and understanding other people's perspectives, while still being able to fight and stand up for one's own beliefs. They discuss how to navigate through tough situations by depersonalizing disputes and approaching disagreements with kindness and understanding. Steinberg highlights the idea of being tough on issues and easy on people, emphasizing the possibility of being respectful while maintaining integrity. His insights on relationships and mediation underscore the importance of reputation and trust in building successful outcomes, as well as the challenge of balancing the need to move issues forward with the need to slow down and find a better balance in communication. Filled with sage advice borne out of extensive experience, today's episode proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that leadership's power to bring about positive change and success is deeply rooted in the consistent and deliberate act of empowering and connecting people. The Finer Details of This Episode: Organizing a team of talented people  Discovering the power of positive change Leadership and the traits essential to the role  Making difficult decisions and taking responsibility for them Building consensus and working collaboratively Building goodwill and strong relationships Being tough on issues and easy on people Understanding other people's perspectives Depersonalizing disputes Being principled and fighting for what you believe in The misconception that being nice means you cannot be tough The power of respect and finding common ground The role of reputation and trust in mediation Having a career in public office and some of the challenges that it entails Focusing on your beliefs and values Maintaining good relations with people with whom you disagree Decision-making and implementation What Darrell would do differently now Quotes: "It is a mistake to decide how you want to organize a team with specific titles and responsibilities and try to slot people into them, as opposed to trying to actually track a great team of talented people." "I see the roles and the jobs that I have as very important. But it's always important to remember the difference because these jobs of leadership are by definition temporary and we're just people and we're not better than anybody." "Leadership is about getting people to a better place than where they currently are." "The beauty of leadership is that it is not just about the leader, it's about the team and the collective effort." "The more people you connect with on a human level, the more successful you will be as a leader." "Let's try to work this out. If we can't, then let's have a good fight here and see where it ends up." "Power is a means of persuasion, not domination." "You choose to invest yourself in serving the public. You are not going to have some of the flexibilities that you might want in terms of your family life." "I believe my kids, in the end, gained a lot more than they lost because they see the importance of community and community service."

Washington Post climate zeitgeist reporter Shannon Osaka speaks with Darrell Steinberg, the mayor of Sacramento, Calif., about the string of deadly storms to hit the state, the latest on the ground in his city and the role of climate change in fueling extreme weather. Conversation recorded on Tuesday, Jan. 17, 2023.

Over the weekend of December 10, the UAW and UC bargaining teams appointed Darrell Steinberg to serve as negotiation mediator. He is currently the mayor of Sacramento, and was suggested by Governor Gavin Newsom for the role. Now, though nothing is in writing yet, there have been verbal proposals and updates from both sides since Steinberg got involved. PhD student and KCSB's resident Strike Updater Emily Fox spoke with Jackie Sedley at 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, December 15, with the latest.

Last year, Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg and his council members approved a comprehensive homeless shelter siting plan that included 20 sites to be located throughout the city. Today? Not a single one of those sites is in operation, and the region's unsheltered population is at unprecedented levels. One silver lining is that the city appears to be pivoting from its failed shelter plan to a renewed focus on building affordable housing with the help of state and federal funding. Just this week they approved some 820 affordable units to be built throughout the city in the next two years. Could it be that the city is actually listening to advocates? Likely not. On Monday, officials swept some 1,000 people from their campsites without offering shelter or services. And they've got plenty more punitive measures in the works.

California's state capital suffers from a serious shortage of housing, like much of the Golden State. Small informal encampments along riverbanks or the side of the road are a common sight. We hear from Laura Nussbaum, a woman living in one of these camps in Sacramento. She's trying to get back into permanent housing but doesn't think she'll get any help from the city. Meanwhile, the mayor of Sacramento thinks his city should pass a law which gives everyone the legal right to housing. Darrell Steinberg tells presenter Sarah Hawkins how it would work, and why a law is needed to cut through red tape. But not everyone is convinced; Faye Wilson Kennedy of the Sacramento Poor People's Campaign worries that the law could force people to choose from the city's very limited list of housing options without necessarily building new options. And local reporter Chris Nichols gives us the perspective of local builders, NIMBY groups, and even some YIMBY groups who positively want new developments to take shape.

Mayor Darrell Steinberg knows the levers to pull to operate state government. He was a member of the Sacramento City Council, a member of the State Assembly, and a longtime leader in the State Senate, where he rose to president pro tempore. However, no job was as tough as his current one as Sacramento mayor. Today, amid climate change, Covid, homelessness, drug use, traffic, crime, racial politics, mental illness, and even potholed streets, being a big city mayor is a uniquely challenging job.

This episode releases on the day following an historic vote by the Sacramento City Council on what steps are going to be taken to help relieve the homelessness problem in the the city.  Not one to mince words on the topic, Mayor Steinberg hits it head on with his vision for the future and what necessary steps need to be taken now to ensure a cleaner city and the appropriate aid and support for those without shelter in the community.  Brothers Brian and John Kabateck joust around some of the issues with the Mayor and also ask about his reflection on time served in the State Legislature as well as his views on the recall attempt of Governor Newsom.  Fast questions always close the show and reveal a bit more of the personal side of their guests. Mayor Steinberg shares a few memories as well as favorites when it comes to music, meals and more.  

[To view/listen to the full episode, become a patron today!] This week the Sacramento Bee lauded the libs in this piece elevating the ever problematic police reform approach coming straight out of the city of Sacramento. We take some time to unpack the absurdities, amplify the truth to power takes, and generally get a tad yelly. Speaking of the city, where is Sacramento County in all of this? The're also talking about alternatives to policing. Our friend Delphine breaks it all down for us in this Facebook post. Some big decisions are coming up at the county level, and input is paramount to making sure accountability and transparency move us forward. Remember: Sacramento County held community meetings on this topic while the city was busy hiring a cop to do the work all on her own. We can't talk about local police issues without the giant elephant in the room: Darrell Steinberg isn't the new Attorney General, but the Bay Area's Rob Bonta is. We'll talk about what we think about Newsom's choice.

On this episode Anthony and I talk about his career and experiences working in the Judiciary, the Senate with Darrell Steinberg, at Boeing, directly with Governor Gavin Newsom, and now at Amazon. Having reached some of the highest places in government and in business his insights are unique, real, and illuminating. In the second half of the episode we move away from his professional achievements and talk about how he values Time as a human and father, as well as how he has suffered in his life and how he has grown from that suffering. He speaks about his rough childhood struggling to even find a meal to his brother being murdered in 2001. Anthony has reached heights that few people ever get to or even dream of getting to. To hear him be human and talk about his life in a way that we all can relate to on some level, is so incredibly valuable for people to be able to listen to.

Sacramento's newest elected councilmember, Katie Valenzuela, joins us to discuss a whole range of issues. Among them:   - The People's Budget Sacramento - The fact that Zoom hosts can read all private messages after a call - Sacramento Police Department funding in the George Floyd era - Darrell Steinberg's 'strong mayor' push - Why it feels as if her election was years ago (it's only been four months)   Thanks for listening and, as always:   Patreon: patreon.com/voicesrivercity   Twitter: @youknowkempa, @guillotine4you, @ShanNDSTevens, @Flojaune   And thank you to Be Brave Bold Robot for the tunes.

Longtime Clean Air activist Bill Magavern joins us to chat, and brings some welcome good news: with the COVID-19 pandemic keeping people out of their cars, many areas of California have seen a decrease in air pollution. Those gains may dissipate as Californians return to the roads, but two coming environmental rule changes could have a big impact going forward: the Advanced Clean Truck Rule will require fleets to begin including non-polluting vehicles in their lineup, starting in 2024, and anti-sprawl provisions of SB743 (a Darrell Steinberg bill, which also cleared the way for the Kings' latest Sacramento Arena, passed in 2013) will go into effect on July 1, 2020. Bill also offers a look ahead at other proposed legislation and how the recent underwhelming Cap-and-Trade auction results may impact funding.

You may have seen the footage from Sunday morning of a Black man pressing Mayor Darrell Steinberg on his racist policies, such as taking $10 million each year from Measure U funding that's supposed to go to underserved communities and giving it to a violent, irresponsible Sacramento police force. That man's name is Conrad Crump, and we were lucky to have the longtime community organizer join us for this episode. This past week has been a long year. So it's fitting that we recorded just as the mayor's 8 p.m. curfew went into place, and as police joined up with 500 National Guard troops to terrorize hundreds of peaceful demonstrators holding a ceremony for George Floyd in Cesar Chavez Park. This is a long episode, but it's one of our best yet. We discuss the events that took place in the week since a white police officer in Minnesota killed George Floyd: How demonstrators took a police precinct from Minneapolis police and burned it to the ground, how Sacramento joined cities across the nation in demonstrations seeking justice, how American police forces showed the world just how violent and craven they are, and how politicians -- particularly Democrats -- failed their communities. In particular, we take a look at Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg. He failed when Conrad pressed him in front of reporters on the immoral use of Measure U funding (to the tune of $10 million per year) on the police. He's failed when folks press him on his inability to understand the Black experience, shouting back in a classic display of white fragility, "You don't know me!" And he's failed by bringing in the National Guard and imposing a curfew on a city in grief. We also discuss a lot more within the context of a George Floyd America: White Nonsense Roundup, mainstream media's history of credulity and deference to police forces, and what comes next in the fight to neutralize the Sacramento region's violent police forces.

What a Super Tuesday. First off, a huge thank you to all who showed up to our watch party at Kupros. We had a blast with you all, and even enjoyed some cross-pollination with a bunch of Democratic organizations who were there for the same reason.   This week we touch on the presidential race, in which Joe Biden is currently leading Bernie Sanders. We discuss how moderates coalesced just before Super Tuesday, look at Biden's solid performance, and examine what comes next.   We then touch on the good news of election night: Katie Valenzuela is looking extremely solid against Steve Hansen. The VOICES: crew takes a look at some of the potential factors of her success (starting with her wildly successful grassroots game, powered by the likes of renters' rights organizations, Democratic Socialists of America and labor groups). Particularly fun this week has been the Sacramento Bee's response to Katie's strong showing. We had this Marcos Breton tear-jerker, as well as this sneering piece by the Editorial Board, which endorsed Hansen over Valenzuela.   Speaking of the Sacramento Bee, did you hear that friend of the show, Master of Crows, Darrell Steinberg, is going to save the Sacramento Bee?! The zaniness here is fairly self explanatory.   A huge thank you to our existing patrons, and to our new patrons! The day after Super Tuesday, we saw $80 in new monthly pledges! With listeners like you, who needs billionaire backers?   Thanks for listening, and as always: Patreon: patreon.com/voicesrivercity Twitter: @youknowkempa, @guillotine4you, @ShanNDSTevens And thank you to Be Brave Bold Robot for the lovely tunes.

We begin this week’s episode with a glimpse at California mayors making some silly endorsements in the Democratic presidential race. Locally, Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg endorsed Joe Biden. ("I'm sad that I can't support (Michael Bloomberg)," he lamented.) Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti went the same route, while San Francisco’s London Breed put her weight behind Mike “stop-and-frisk” Bloomberg. So did Stockton's Michael Tubbs. What is it with California politicians and centrist candidates? We then look at the Bernie Sanders surge, in which the socialist senator from Vermont appears poised to make a splash in the Democratic presidential primary’s early states. In California, three of the last four polls show him ahead by 3-4 points. Meanwhile, the latest New Hampshire poll shows Bernie at a whopping +12 against the field. And then there's the CNN national poll, which showed him three points ahead of Biden. Ultimately, it feels increasingly like Iowa will tell us what comes next. And polls there have been all over the place. Lastly, we discuss the silly assertion that Democrats and Republicans alike make about “populist threats,” in which they try to glom the Bernie Sanders campaign in with President Donald Trump’s white nationalist following. Some well-known California politicos have been drawing such lines, as you’ll learn in this week’s reading segment. We take a moment to have a little fun with these claims.

This week the Golden State got the New York Times treatment in an article titled, “California is Booming. Why are so many Californians Unhappy?” The VOICES crew had a few reflections on the piece, since we’re no strangers to the have- and have-not dynamic of a state run by coastal oligarchs. We also discuss Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg’s very recent influx of campaign contributions from anti-renters’ rights interests such as the California Real Estate PAC (over $4,000). Interestingly, the Steinberg campaign gave $1,750 to Councilmember Steve Hansen’s campaign on a very symbolic day for renters’ rights activists. Hansen, if you’ll remember, led the smear campaign against Michelle Pariset of Public Advocates, who is fighting to let Sacramentans have a vote on real rent control. Hansen last month was hit with an ethics complaint, since the public affairs firm he works for has regularly represented anti-renters’ rights interests. But no matter that Darrell and Steve are neck-deep in landlord/developer dollars, right? They represent you, the people. Next month we’ll do a deep-dive into the dollars going into Hansen and Steinberg’s campaigns, carrying on with VOICES: River City’s “Sac Follows the Money” tradition. Finally, we take a moment to reflect on some of the lives lost on the streets in Sacramento in 2019. We also take a moment to give residents a few thoughts on what they can do to fight back against such wild violence against the lower classes.

Former Assemblyman Dennis Mangers was elected to represent Orange County's AD73 in 1976 - swept to power in the Democratic wave that followed Watergate. The district reverted to form four years later when Mangers lost his seat to Republican Nolan Frizzelle. The district voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 - the first Dem presidential candidate to capture Orange County since FDR - and this month elected Democrat Harley Rouda to replace Dana Rohrabacher in congress. We sat down with Mangers to chat about the changes that have turned Orange County blue (or maybe purple) and about life after elected office. These days Mangers is an adviser to Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg and is busy supporting the Dennis Mangers Fund for Young Performing Artists.

Marisa and Scott run through a wild day in the state legislature, with last-minute deals on digital privacy, lead paint cleanup, and soda taxes to avoid ballot measure battles in November (0:50). Then, Sacramento mayor Darrell Steinberg talks about his 2014 law that allowed the legislature to negotiate ballot measures (8:32), his reputation as a nice guy in politics (14:50) the difference between addressing homelessness as a mayor and a legislator (16:47), the "cutting the ribbon syndrome" (17:45), how Jerry Brown has dealt with homelessness (19:02), and the statewide effort to expand rent control (22:27).

President Trump dismissed Secretary of Veterans Affairs David Shulkin this evening with a tweet. The president also tweeted his preferred replacement for Dr. Shulkin in the same series of tweets. Robert Wilkie, assistant secretary of defense for legislative affairs, will serve as acting director and Rear Admiral Ronny Jackson, the physician to Presidents Bush, Obama and Trump, will be the president's nominee to become the next VA Secretary. This shake-up at the VA comes amidst fierce internal debate over questions of privatization and outrage over wasteful spending. Former VA Secretary Anthony Principi, who served under President George W. Bush, reacts to Shuklin's ouster and shares his thoughts on what the VA needs to get back on course. Stephon Clark, a 23-year-old father of two from Sacramento, California, was shot 20 times by two police officers in his grandparents' backyard earlier this month. Michael and Rick discuss how we can address the root of these shootings in a more holistic way.

As part of its effort to balance the budget in 2011, the Governor and the State Legislature voted to eliminate local Redevelopment Agencies throughout the State of California. The legislation passed two trailer bills along with the budget - AB 1x26 eliminated redevelopment agencies and AB 1x27 would have allowed them to continue to exist if they made payments to the State to help balance the budget in this fiscal year and future years. The Redevelopment Agencies sued the State of California in an effort to strike down both pieces of legislation. On December 29th, the Supreme Court ruled that AB 26, the bill to eliminate redevelopment agencies is legal and struck down AB 27, ruling that under Proposition 22, it is illegal to force the localities to pay the State. This is the worst possible outcome for affordable housing because 20% of Redevelopment Funding, nearly $1 billion a year, was dedicated to affordable housing production in 400 jurisdictions throughout the State. The Affordable Housing podcast has been following this issue closely and we have invited back Lynn Hutchins, a partner at Goldfarb and Lipman LLP, a leading redevelopment law firm in California, to discuss the short and long term implications of the Court's decision. Previous Affordable Housing Podcast episodes on this subject can be listened to on Eden Housing's website at http://www.edenhousing.org/podcast.asp.

This is the worst possible outcome for affordable housing because 20% of Redevelopment Funding, nearly $1 billion a year, was dedicated to affordable housing production in 400 jurisdictions throughout the State. The Affordable Housing podcast has been following this issue closely and we have invited back Lynn Hutchins, a partner at Goldfarb and Lipman LLP, a leading redevelopment law firm in California, to discuss the short and long term implications of the Court's decision.
