On the next Your Call, we continue our On the Record series where we look at presidential candidates' voting records. Next up is former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. New York's murder rate dropped by 60 percent under Giuliani, but complaints about police brutality rose by 70 percent. Giuliani received international attention after 9/11 and since then, he founded a security consulting business and became a partner in a law firm. What does Giuliani’s record tell us about what kind of president he would make? It’s Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.
