About this listen

LAUSD Board Member Nick Melvoin joins us to discuss the critical role of local elected leaders in shaping community policies and the importance of down-ballot races in elections. There are long-term consequences of voter apathy towards local elections, state propositions, and the need for civic engagement in governance reform. Local decisions can often outpace federal changes and the significance of understanding local ballot measures that directly affect schools and community infrastructure.
