Founded in 1918, the California Manufacturers and Technology Association promotes policies designed to stimulate economic growth and create jobs. Today, CMTA represents 400 manufacturing businesses in California, which is the largest manufacturing state in the country. Heading up that operation is Lance Hastings, who began his career as a capitol staffer and has a long history with California trade associations. Hastings probably thought that the COVID pandemic would be the biggest disruptor of the state's manufacturing industry in his time, but President Trump's 'on again, off again' tariff policy may give COVID a run for its money. He joins us to talk about the state of California's manufacturing industry, tariffs, and just how long it might take to reshore production.Plus, Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics?1:50 A change in senate leadership3:12 Trump vs. Musk poll4:08 Budget funds private foster agencies4:42 The Top 100 is coming9:53 Matt Rexroad10:45 Lance Hastings12:01 California: largest manufacturing state in the country13:21 Workforce17:39 Tariffs24:52 it took 40 years to lose manufacturing - it will take at least that long to bring it back25:31 Impact of retaliatory tariffs27:47 Finding common ground with environmental advocates33:45 Cap and invest36:42 California Lowrider Holiday38:46 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Today we welcome Amy O'Gorman Jenkins, the state's preeminent cannabis lobbyist - so much so that she earned the nickname "Pot Girl" back when Gavin Newsom was still just the Lieutenant Gov. Jenkins, was one of the first lobbyists for the state's once-maligned, now coveted, cannabis industry, first when she worked out of Darius Anderson's shop, then later at her own firm, Precision Advocacy. She was lead lobbyist for the California Cannabis Industry Association for a decade, but left this year to head up new a new cannabis trade group representing the state's largest retailers, The California Cannabis Operators Association. Jenkins describes an industry in peril, with legal outlets closing, legal sales dropping, and the state's cannabis excise tax poised to go up July 1 unless the legislature acts.Plus, as always, we tell you Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics.1:42 Prop. 103 repeal?4:25 Changing the excise tax on cannabis?5:24 "A week of Lea/hs"6:19 Should Kamala Harris still be considered a frontrunner for California Governor?7:08 Polling on Democrats' attitudes8:11 Jason Sisney's Budget odds8:46 California and AI9:44 Amy O'Gorman Jenkins10:59 Origin story12:04 "Pot Girl"13:01 The change in attitude toward the cannabis industry15:02 #AB56418:03 The cannabis industry in crisis20:13 Illicit sales are still far larger than legal sales26:47 CA's cannabis excise tax is 124% higher than Michigan's27:27 Cannabis is taxed at 2.5 times the rate of tobacco and 6 times the rate of alcohol29:44 How dire is the crisis?30:51 about 68% of CA jurisdictions ban legal cannabis31:54 National cannabis legislation?33:32 "This is a heritage industry"37:53 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

In March, Assemblymember Buffy Wicks and a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced a 22-bill package aimed at reforming the building permitting process in California, an effort to fast-track housing development statewide. Wicks described the package as an effort to “slash red tape, remove uncertainty and to drastically reduce the time it takes to get new housing approved and built” in California. Asm. Wicks joined us to talk about the bills, why they are needed, and what it will take to get the package to the governor's desk this year.Next up, we're joined by Port of Long Beach CEO Mario Cordero to talk about the impact of the new Trump tariffs on the nation's busiest port.

We have a packed show today: first up, we chat with California Secretary of State Shirley Weber about The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, proposed federal legislation that would require all Americans to reregister to vote, in person, with either a birth certificate or passport. Weber outlines concerns that the law would effectively disenfranchise millions of voters who may not have access to their birth certificate, and those - like many married women - whose documents no longer match their birth name. And, perhaps an even bigger problem: who pays?  Counties project millions in costs to administrate, but the  legislation includes no funding mandate.We also spoke with Trans activist Ebony Harper, founding executive director of California TRANScends, and the author of The Trans Manifesto. Harper shared how she is responding to the current wave of anti-Trans sentiment, her reaction to Governor Newsom's recent podcast comments, and how Coast to Coast and NPR shaped her life.Plus - Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics?1:38 Capitol Weekly Update2:13 Correction: Dan Weintraub was the first California politics blogger3:33 Big Day of Giving: May 15:49 SOS Shirley Weber on the SAVE Act6:21 "What are they trying to save?"7:25 What does it do?8:41 Disproportionately affects women11:12 The fraud problem13:11 The cost to counties15:05 Impact on Trans people16:51 Litigation?18:01 Most states see this as an obstacle19:56 Ebony Harper24:01 How do you respond to the current moment?27:55 The Trans Manifesto30:09 The governor's comments carry a lot of weight, but..34:12 Anti-Trans messaging36:13 "The same playbook"37:13 Origin Story39:18 Coast to Coast and NPR42:37 "We're still coming out every day, even though it's a hostile environment"43:24 Where is Ebony Harper in five years?45:44 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Stocks were in free fall again Friday as markets saw their worst week in years. The trade war heated up as China responded to President Trump with their own 34 percent tariffs on imported U.S. goods. Markets fell further after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the tariffs are expected to lead to higher prices and weaken the economy. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Justin Wolfers.

Longtime political columnist Dan Walters joins us to talk about his fifty years covering state capitol politics. Walters began covering politics in 1975 - just months after Jerry Brown was sworn in for his first term as Governor - and hasn't stopped since. He began writing his column for the Sacramento Union in 1981 and continued when he moved to the Union's crosstown rival The Sacramento Bee in 1984. He has been with CalMatters since 2017.  Walters spoke with us about how the capitol has changed in the half century he has been covering it, shared his favorite Jerry Brown story, and finally came clean about how he scooped the rest of the press corp on the state Budget story, over and over again.  Plus - Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics?:58 A viral story2:16 Capitol Insiders Survey3:44 California Insurance Crisis4:45 Welcome Dan Walters5:32 most notable changes in 50 years?8:22 Vic Pollard12:40 The two groups who came out of nowhere13:21 The Third House15:33 How DID you get the Budget in advance?17:36 "All hell broke loose"20:15 Down at David's Brass Rail21:40 Apocalypse Right Now27:28 Thoughts on "This is Gavin Newsom" 31:36 The Great Mentioners34:39 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Claire Conlon has a long history in the capitol community. She got her start as a legislative aide in 2011, and has held a wide variety of roles since, including Press Secretary for Senate leader Kevin de León and Chief of Staff to Asm. Cottie Petrie-Norris. While building that impressive resume, she did something unusual: she left. In 2017 Conlon left the capitol, the state, and eventually the country, traveling the world for a full year - job title "Vagabond" on her Linkedin. Returning to the state in 2018, she picked up where she had left off. In 2023, she left the capitol again - this time for private industry. She is currently the Senior Director of State Government Affairs for Biocom California, where she manages and implements their state legislative policy agenda.Claire shared stories from her capitol journey and other travels, offers advice for new legislators, and talks about her new role in California's second largest industry.  Plus - Who had the Worst Week in CA Politics?1:11 First time on a podcast!3:55 What was it like to be a Press Sec. for a Legislative leader?4:15 Dee Dee Myers shout-out5:21 Origin story9:12 From school to the capitol11:40 Around the world15:33 What did the trip change for you?18:06 Advice for new legislators20:37 Thoughts on gender parity in the Senate21:43 New role at Biocom23:02 Second-largest industry in California24:14 St. Patrick's Day dancers at the capitol25:27 Favorite state capitol?26:38 Hot topics: Drug affordability and access29:38 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Crypto derivatives exchange Bybit just became the latest victim of North Korea's elite hacking unit, the Lazarus Group. They didn't brute-force their way in. They didn't exploit some obscure vulnerability. Instead, they tricked a trusted developer, slipped in malicious code, and took off with a fortune. How did this happen? Why was $1.5 billion sitting in a single wallet? What mistakes did Bybit and Safe make? And, more importantly, what needs to change to stop this from happening again? This week, Mudit Gupta, chief information security officer at Polygon, joins Unchained to expose the security failures, the sophisticated tactics Lazarus used, and why crypto still hasn't learned its lesson.

The Aussie market continued its losing streak, falling 1.3% and hitting a one-month low, weighed down by declines in financial and materials stocks. Banks, particularly ANZ, struggled after recent strong gains, while mining giants Fortescue and Rio Tinto disappointed with lower profits. Despite a challenging environment, some bright spots emerged—Telstra surged after announcing a dividend increase and a $750 million buyback, while tech firm Megaport jumped 18% on strong earnings.

We're joined today by Dr. Shirley Weber, California's Secretary of State. Governor Newsom appointed the four-term assembly member as Secretary of State in 2020 to fill the remainder of Alex Padilla's term when Padilla went to the US Senate. Voters elected her to a full term on November 8, 2022.  Serving as the state's chief elections officer is a natural fit for Weber, whose family left Arkansas during the Jim Crow era after her father was threatened for agitating in favor of voting rights. The family settled in southern California, where her mother became a longtime poll worker, with the family home often serving as a polling place.Hosts Rich Ehisen and Tim Foster spoke with Weber about administrating elections, why it takes so long to get results in some districts, and how to inspire young Californians to care as much about voting as Weber's family does.

We hear a lot of discussion about what it takes to campaign for Governor of California, but, as in the 1972 film The Candidate, not so much about what it takes to govern the state.

Ranked Choice Voting had a bit of a "moment" in 2022, helping send Democrat Mary Peltola to congress in Alaska, and clearing a first-ballot hurdle for statewide acceptance in Nevada. This year, proponents of the RCV process got proposals on the ballot in four states (Colorado, Idaho, Oregon, and the confirmation vote in NV), but ultimately found themselves on defense, losing all four, and also losing a Missouri ballot measure to ban the method from use in the state.  A measure to repeal RCV in Alaska failed by just 743 votes. Conversely, use of RCV continues to expand in cities and other localities. In Washington DC, a measure to introduce RCV passed with over 70% of the vote this year.Our guest today, Josh Rosa, is on the Steering Committee of Better Ballot Sacramento, an organization promoting adoption of Ranked Choice Voting in Sacramento.  Rosa is a lecturer at Sacramento State and has a long history in the capitol community, including a stint in the Schwarzenegger administration. We chat about the various types of RCV and look at the pros and cons of the system.Plus - Who had the Worst Week in California Politics?Show Notes:3:06 What is Ranked Choice Voting?6:26 Benefits10:29 Downsides13:23 What is driving newfound opposition to RCV?17:05 How does the Sacramento plan stack up?20:02 Insights?26:47 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?
