I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Because he's putting his plan on the ballot, where it will compete with the City Hall/union proposal.

"content": "\u003cp>The Legislature had its dramatic moments tonight as it considered next year's state budget. Lawsuits were threatened, or promised. Democratic members of the Senate broke with party leadership for a time over their displeasure with some aspects of the package. Republicans complained that they'd been frozen out of the budget-making process as Democrats crafted and passed a package that (they argued) contained no new taxes and thus needed no GOP votes for passage. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/06/ufwflag.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/06/ufwflag.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"UFW Flag\" width=\"240\" height=\"156\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-32614\">\u003c/a>But the evening's real drama at the Capitol only unfolded only after the Legislature was done voting. Governor Jerry Brown vetoed a widely watched piece of farm-labor legislation: \u003ca href=\"http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/sen/sb_0101-0150/sb_104_bill_20110112_introduced.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">SB 104\u003c/a>, the farmworker \"card-check\" bill. The bill would have changed how agricultural union elections are held. Instead of voting by secret ballot on whether to join a union, as provided under current law, workers would express their preference by \"card check\"—in essence, by submitting a petition accompanied by individual authorization cards. The cards could be filled out anywhere—on the job or at home. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The United Farm Workers backed the bill, introduced by Senate President pro tem Darrell Steinberg, a Sacramento Democrat. Steinberg, the UFW, and their allies say the change was necessary because farm employers have intimidated workers voting in secret elections held at job sites. Opponents of the bill, which predictably include agriculture interests, say the card-check system would make workers vulnerable to coercion from unions. (Here's\u003ca href=\"http://www.californiaprogressreport.com/site/node/9056\" target=\"_blank\"> the union's view\u003c/a> of the bill. And here's this week's Los Angeles Times editorial \u003ca href=\"http://http://articles.latimes.com/2011/jun/23/opinion/la-ed-cardcheck-20110623\" target=\"_blank\">urging Brown to veto the bill\u003c/a>.) \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back to the Capitol: UFW supporters have been camped out there all week, holding a fast and vigil to try to persuade the governor to sign the bill (Brown's predecessor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, had rejected it).

Democratic members of the Senate broke with party leadership for a time over their displeasure with some aspects of the package. Republicans complained that they'd been frozen out of the budget-making process as Democrats crafted and passed a package that (they argued) contained no new taxes and thus needed no GOP votes for passage. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/06/ufwflag.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/06/ufwflag.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"UFW Flag\" width=\"240\" height=\"156\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-32614\">\u003c/a>But the evening's real drama at the Capitol only unfolded only after the Legislature was done voting. Governor Jerry Brown vetoed a widely watched piece of farm-labor legislation: \u003ca href=\"http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/sen/sb_0101-0150/sb_104_bill_20110112_introduced.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">SB 104\u003c/a>, the farmworker \"card-check\" bill. The bill would have changed how agricultural union elections are held. Instead of voting by secret ballot on whether to join a union, as provided under current law, workers would express their preference by \"card check\"—in essence, by submitting a petition accompanied by individual authorization cards. The cards could be filled out anywhere—on the job or at home. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The United Farm Workers backed the bill, introduced by Senate President pro tem Darrell Steinberg, a Sacramento Democrat. Steinberg, the UFW, and their allies say the change was necessary because farm employers have intimidated workers voting in secret elections held at job sites. Opponents of the bill, which predictably include agriculture interests, say the card-check system would make workers vulnerable to coercion from unions. (Here's\u003ca href=\"http://www.californiaprogressreport.com/site/node/9056\" target=\"_blank\"> the union's view\u003c/a> of the bill. And here's this week's Los Angeles Times editorial \u003ca href=\"http://http://articles.latimes.com/2011/jun/23/opinion/la-ed-cardcheck-20110623\" target=\"_blank\">urging Brown to veto the bill\u003c/a>.) \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back to the Capitol: UFW supporters have been camped out there all week, holding a fast and vigil to try to persuade the governor to sign the bill (Brown's predecessor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, had rejected it). Some had traveled hundreds of miles to be there, and according to KQED Sacramento Bureau Chief John Myers, they were angry and dejected when the word came that Brown had vetoed SB 104. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UFW President Arturo Rodriguez was on the scene.

Under well-established rules, any women who had a claim of denial of equal pay or promotion into management at any time since December 26, 1998, those claims today are not too late to bring… We’ve already interviewed over 12,000 women around the country, we’re getting thousands more contacting us.

A class action automatically freezes the statute of eliminations, or the time period for filing the claim as long as the class action is pending. And that means because of the rules in the case, the class goes back to the end of 1998. So women who had any claims at any time since that time are not too late. Their claims have been frozen and they now have the statutory time periods to go to the EEOC or to file their own lawsuit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nSo it sounds like instead of putting a flurry of cases through courts, that flurry is now going to move to the EEOC… \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both places.

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
