City to Cut Watchdog Programs to Save Layoffs

Hosted by

The Los Angeles City Budget is being cut, squeezed and trimmed by the Mayor and the City Council.  Are they taking the opportunity to reduce the power of two agencies created by voters to increase citizen participation and make sure elected officials observe campaign limits and regulations?  Also, what caused the Jesusita Fire near Santa Barabara? On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, President Obama is just one supporter of gay rights who draws the line at same-sex marriage. We talk about a movement that's been picking up speed, and efforts to speed it up as well as slow it down
