Opinion: Anthony Rendon’s real legacy: Backing up Roger Hernandez and killing California’s gig economy
Who knows? Maybe that’s what Rendon meant by being “forgiving” and giving second chances.
To be fair to Rendon it’s doubtful he would have ever governed in a way that would have impressed me, a fairly conservative guy. If I try to look at this from a Democrat’s perspective, I might be pleased that he helped boost funding for countless government programs. But I’d also have to be disappointed with the results.
Rendon helped pass an increase in the minimum wage, economic policy so bad that then-Gov. Jerry Brown said it didn’t make sense “economically.” He drove the cost of gas even higher. It’s not from a lack of effort. In 2022 alone nearly 1,000 bills became law – over a seven year period, that’s a lot of laws!
