In this 12/12/2022 podcast episode of KNX News On Demand, Weingart Center President & CEO, Senator Kevin Murray (ret), offers great insight into the State of Emergency that newly-appointed L.A. Mayor, Karen Bass, declared on her first day in office.

At the top of the episode, when asked, “what does the State of Emergency actually change,” Senator Murray explains, “[…] some people think it’s symbolic; [but] it actually does give the mayor some power […].”

Senator Murray goes on to explain what the State of Emergency means, what opponents and supporters alike can expect, and how this declaration sets the legal framework necessary to push forward with an aggressive plan to address the homeless crisis in the City of Los Angeles.
