Senator Adam Schiff joins Michael Monks to break down California’s complicated future. Despite the state now ranking as the fourth-largest economy in the world, Schiff explains why a booming economy hasn't solved California’s worsening housing crisis or protected its signature industry, Hollywood. They also tackle the fallout from immigration policies, national security concerns at the Pentagon, and Schiff’s push for new legislation to keep California competitive.  Plus, Michael sits down with KFI News Anchor, actress, and Emmy-winning journalist Heather Brooker to discuss the urgent challenges facing California’s film industry. They explore the state's efforts to expand tax incentives, the growing global competition, and why protecting local production is critical for California’s economic future.
