At the CenterHow the State Legislature Impacts Local GovernmentsTuesday, Feb. 19, 2013As someone who has served on a school board, city council, board of supervisors, and in the state assembly and senate, Joe Simitian has the experience to comment on how various levels of government can work together more effectively.
