Robb Korinke is a Long Beach, California-based political consultant, specializing in candidate and ballot measure campaigns. He is also the co-founder (with Mike Madrid) of GrassrootsLab, and co-publisher of several local politics-focused publications, including CaliforniaCityNews.org, CaliforniaCountyNews.org. He has also recently joined the California Target Book as a co-editor. With those bonafides he's one of our first calls whenever we want to talk local politics.And, with the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act on the November 2024 ballot - or not - it was time to call Robb.  The measure, backed by the California Business Roundtable, would dramatically change California governments' ability to levy taxes and assign fees, and - of paramount importance for locals - would raise the margin for local tax measures from a simple majority to two thirds. But, will it stay on the ballot?The Newsom administration, the Legislature and others have challenged the legality of the measure, arguing that the sweeping changes it outlines would amount to a revision of the constitution, not a simple amendment. The California Supreme Court heard arguments in the case last week, and now local officials are left to wait and see if the measure that they are calling "an existential threat" will be removed from the ballot or face voters in November. We discuss that and much more.:53 Legal battle of Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act4:41 A difficult time for local governments6:02 Is there a middle ground solution?7:50 Spending/Costs10:17 You can't go home again: The failure of the Capitol to local pipeline12:02 Ascendance of Progressives in local politics14:59 KDL vs. Ysabel Jurado15:46 California City News and California County News20:46 Everybody loves to talk about Huntington Beach23:04 Expanding the LA City Council?24:53 the Target Book26:49 Lung Association29:19 Worst Week in CA Politics - Trouble in HesperiaWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Making reading time a bit more musical with Bingo Books.     Author librarian Cassie Veselovsky makes reading time a bit more musical in her sing-along books for the five-year-olds and under crowd, and their grown-ups. "I've taken my old rhymes and converted them into books," she said in the podcast interview. A librarian of 40 years, Veselovsky also loves pairing books with readers to see the joy in kids' eyes when they say, "I loved the book." In her sing-along books, Veselovsky matches up the rhymes with online purchased illustrations. "Rhyming books are not easy," she said, "so they don't sound silly." She would like to disperse a common misconception about her Bingo Books that they are like a bingo game. "They're not a game," she said. "They're sing-along books with five-letter words." Veselovsky will be at Winter Whimsy in Hartford on Dec. 8. She has attended Reading Rocks in Rockford, hosted by the Rockford branch of the KDL system.

Los Angeles saw the most intense political implosion in decades last week after an anonymous source released a secretly-taped recording of LA City Councilmembers Nury Martinez, Gil Cedillo and Kevin de Leon, and Ron Herrerra of the Los Angeles County Labor Federation, disparaging colleagues, making racist remarks and discussing strategies to reduce the political clout of Los Angeles' Black community. One week later, Herrerra and Martinez have resigned, and Cedillo and de Leon are facing widespread calls to step down, a chorus that includes President Joe Biden.  If the language on the bombshell recording was a surprise - the underlying issues are not. Los Angeles' multi-ethnic tapestry has been fraying for years as demographics change and different communities jockey for power.We are joined today by Erika Smith, columnist for the Los Angeles Times.
