Then a sex trafficking bill introduced by state Sen. Shannon Grove in Sacramento is causing a kerfuffle with all sorts of LA implications.
Also, will the debate between Gov. Gavin Newson and Gov. Ron DeSantis actually happen?
And a look at how a political force in the San Fernando Valley is being honored for her work after being recently diagnosed with terminal cancer.
