Senator Bob Huff on State Government Successes and Failures

State Senator Bob Huff, who represents Monrovia, gives an end-of-session wrap up. A few items ...

- Pension reform: "The good news: The State Legislature finally got around to passing pension reform legislation. The bad news: It doesn't solve most of our problems."

- On workers compensation: "Republicans and Democrats reached across the aisle to pass legislation that will reduce costs on employers while increasing benefits for workers who are injured on the job."

- CEQA: "The Legislature missed a golden opportunity to open up the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to a series of reforms during the final two weeks of legislative session. If there is any good news out of this failure, it's this: There is a new coalition building in favor of CEQA reform."
