California state workers FIGHT to work remotely as Newsom MANDATES they return to office
The countdown is on, after six years of COVID-induced tele-work, July 1st marks the date that Governor Newsom is ordering state workers back to the office four days a week. The proposal, which has been delayed already, is being met by opposition from unions who are warning of a "mass exodus" of state workers if the mandate pans out. All this, as State Assemblymember Alex Lee (D-San Jose) is pushing legislation that would allow state agencies to determine where their employees work from, justifying the need for in-office mandates. Lee joins Sandra Mitchell and Micah Ohlman to discuss his legislation, possibilities of a "mass exodus," and the benefits of tele-work. June 29, 2026.
