Download audio (MP3)

In the first half hour we check in with California Senator Barbara Boxer about the economic crisis and the presidential campaign. In the second half hour we turn to Measure Q, a sales tax increase on the November ballot for North Bay voters which would fund a commuter train between Sonoma and Marin counties.

Host: Michael Krasny

Guests:

  • Barbara Boxer, U.S. senator from California, chair of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works and member of the foreign relations and commerce committees (first half hour)
  • Cynthia Murray, co-chair of the Yes on Q Campaign (second half hour)
  • Mike Arnold, co-chair of Northbay Citizens for Effective Transportation, a group which opposes Measure Q (second half hour)
