Firefighters Sound the Alarm at Bass’s Doorstep

Hour 1 - L.A. firefighters deliver a stark warning to Mayor Karen Bass: without urgent funding, the city could be headed toward a public safety crisis. Guest Rich Ramirez, VP of United Firefighters in Los Angeles, joins the show to explain why he believes Los Angeles needs a dedicated sales tax for fire protection — before disaster strikes.
