How would Governor Jerry Brown's budget change California?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about the proposed California budget. The proposal includes $12.7 billion cuts in education and social services as well as an extension of current tax rates. Who'll be hit hardest--and who does it let off the hook? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. With the state facing a $26.6 billion budget gap, how should the state balance its budget? What do you welcome about the governor's plan? And what worries you? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
