What's happening in the foreclosure crisis in California?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about high foreclosure rates in the state. Attorney General Kamala Harris pulled out of negotiations with the nation's biggest banks, calling the proposal "inadequate for California homeowners." And California House Democrats have criticized the administration's policy on home foreclosures. So what is the best way out of the foreclosures crisis? Join us live at 10 or send an email to feedback@yourcallradio.org. Who's been hit the hardest? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Anna Georges Eshoo, the U.S. Representative for California's 14th congressional district
John Atlas, the author of Seeds of Change, The Story of ACORN, America's Most Controversial Antipoverty Organizing Group
Kevin Stein, the Associate Director of the California Reinvestment Coalition
