New Gov. Gavin Newsom's Budget Proposal Is Full Of Progressive- And Pricey -Programs

Marisa Lagos/KQED

A healthy economy and a fresh perspective have prompted new Governor Gavin Newsom to propose some of the most progressive programs and sweeping investments in a California state budget blueprint in years.  For the most part, majority Democrats in the Legislature like the budget proposal, while Republicans have questions and concerns.  Here's more in a report from KVCR's Ken Vincent and Captial Public Radio's Ben Adler.

Ken Vincent has retired. We appreciate the way he shared his expertise with many of our young interns and reporters over the nearly eight years he spent as KVCR's lead journalist and Morning Edition host. We wish him a happy and relaxing retirement as he spends more time in his garden and, as he mentioned, more time on the golf course. Thanks Ken!
