Extra Edition: New Laws in California.

Just days ahead of the deadline, California Gov. Newsom signed a number of bills allowing immigrants to gain access to more social services and protections, including allowing state IDs, expanding farm worker union rights, raising wages for fast food workers, expanding paid family leave to low-wage workers, and allowing vendors to sell food on streets. He also signed into law a plan requiring California schools to serve only domestic-made foods. He also vetoed a bill providing unemployment benefits for undocumented workers. Journalists explain details about those pieces of legislation.

Guests: Laura Díaz, Reporter, The Fresno Bee, Central Valley News Collaborative, Fresno, CA; Melissa Montalvo, Reporter, The Fresno Bee, Fresno, CA; Others TBA.
