Getting California Back On Track

Much has been said and written about the recall of Gov. Gray Davis, but the fact remains that California is facing a monumental financial crisis. While there is hope abound that Gov-elect Scwarzenegger will right the ship and get California back on its feet, there's no denying that Arnold faces the same structural problems that put Governor Davis in such a pickle. As Arnold rounds up his transition team and plans for the selection of his key cabinet appointments, the Legislature likewise is gearing up to work with the new administration. MIR is pleased to present this interview with Assemblyman Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento), in which he addresses the root causes of the recall election and offers his prescription for restoring the fiscal and political health of the state.
