State Sen. Tom Umberg (D-Santa Ana) is a retired Army colonel, a former federal prosecutor and he once served as a deputy drug czar under President Bill Clinton. He’s known for his pragmatism, his ability to reach across the aisle and now, in his position of senate judiciary committee chair, as a gatekeeper of artificial intelligence regulations being proposed in Sacramento.
Umberg joins Marisa and Scott to talk about those regulations, the state’s drug crisis and a political sea change in Orange County.
