Today Kempa sits down with his old friend Bobby Roy, lead negotiator for SEIU Local 1000, to discuss the 100,000-strong state worker union's decision to go on strike for the first time in history this Wednesday, October 21.

California governor Gavin Newsom and the billionaire class are showing once more where their allegiances lie, and it looks like workers aren't going to take it without a fight. We look at what this means for Newsom's 2028 presidential prospects, and for worker solidarity in the country moving forward.
