POLITICO’s California Playbook

2025 has been a whirlwind year in California politics, from the creation and passage of Prop 50 to a growing field of gubernatorial candidates. The state has also been impacted by major decisions on the federal level, including an ongoing battle over extending certain healthcare subsidies to prevent premiums from skyrocketing. Blake Jones is the co-author of POLITICO’s California Playbook and joins Insight to talk about the latest political news, especially with 2026 and the midterms just around the corner.

Carolyn Thomas is the Site Director for the Sacramento Center for Employment Opportunities and Sergio Maldonado is a participant in the program. We’ll learn more about how it works.
