The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association President Jon Coupal joins Bill to continue the conversation on three tax reform proposals on the November ballot. The epicenter of the debate is the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act, which supporters say would close a loophole in Proposition 13 and ensure more transparency, but which opponents claim would have a catastrophic effect on public safety and California's economy.

California’s water problems are truly unlike anywhere else in the US. The topography of farmland, desert, mountains, and coastline create an infinitely complex situation to manage the state’s water supply.

In this episode, California Water For All’s Paul Helicker discusses our state’s water problems, and what legislation is in the pipeline that might help alleviate our seemingly never-ending water crisis.
