b'Today\\u2019s pod is a Candid Conversation with the Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass. On day one the newly elected mayor declared a State of Emergency in LA\\xa0 to deal with the crisis of the unhoused, and 100 days in she\\u2019s tackling the problem with the urgency it deserves, and the heart and humility of a new kind of leader. So far the program, which is aligning every level of government, is truly making a difference, and if the second biggest city in America can pull it off, these are programs that can be rolled out across the country. Successful policies are contagious. Whether those are negative policies like abortion bans or trans bans, or positive programs like dealing with homelessness or expanded school lunch programs, once they\\u2019re working they can spread. That\\u2019s why it\\u2019s essential we put the right leaders, with the right values, in positions of power.\\xa0\\n\\nGuest social:\\nhttps://mayor.lacity.gov/\\n\\nTwitter: \\t@MayorOfLA\\nInsta: \\tmayorofla\\n\\nPlease RATE and SUBSCRIBE so we can grow the show, open the dialogue, and inspire change moving forward!\\n\\xa0\\nAll show links here!: https://linktr.ee/politicsgirl\\n\\xa0\\nThank you to today\\u2019s sponsors!\\nwww.lomi.com/politicsgirl PromoCode: PoliticsGirl'
