Proposition 32 is a familiar proposal, as it seeks to raise the minimum wage in California - this time up to $18 per hour. This would place California as the state with the highest minimum wage across the country. But what economic effects would this increase have? And would it really help minimum wage workers? Join me as we cover our final ballot initiative together on this week's episode of The California Conversation!

Proposition 34 regulates how healthcare entities can spend revenues they earn through drug discount programs. But is this proposition really meant to help patients, or are there deeper motivations underneath the surface? I’m your host Tess Abraham, and we will be covering what I think is one of the most interesting propositions on our ballot this election on this week’s episode of The California Conversation!

On another note, we have covered 8 propositions so far, and have just 2 to go including Prop. 34 today – so it is more important than ever to get the word out and stay informed on everything coming your way in November! Join me for this week's discussion of Proposition 34!

Proposition 6 seeks to change the language in the California constitution to remove the ability of the state to use involuntary servitude as a form of punishment for crime. Supporters of the proposition argue that this amounts to modern-day slavery and is both inhumane and reprehensible. Does the state constitution allow slavery? Or is there more to understand?

On another note, we have covered 7 propositions so far, and have just 3 to go including Prop. 6 today – so it is more important than ever to get the word out and stay informed on everything coming your way in November! Join me for this week's discussion of Proposition 6!
