Ken and vicki, back to you. All right. Precept. A proposed state constitutional amendment to enshrine the right to organize and join a union is gaining ground in the state legislature. Kron fours capitol correspondent Eytan Wallace talked with the lawmaker who authored the measure. And has reaction from opponents. No loud chanting from this group, but the shirts and signs these pro Union Members brought to the State Capitol. Make their message clear. Ed writes for working people across california specifically they came to the capitol to urge support for sca 7, a proposal to enshrine the right to organize and unionize into the state constitution. We believe that car to find the right to collectively bargain is something thats important. And necessary to protect these rights for it. Whole new generation of workers. Sandra merritt is the president of the California State Building and construction trades council. He argues that ca 7 will help guarantee workers receive protection and wages they deserve being in a union is a pathway to the middle class is a pathway to a better life. We want that for a whole new generation of workers. This relatively modest proposal, assembly, 6 protect workers. Democratic state senator Tom Hamburger of santa ana authored the proposal. He says while california already has some of the strongest union and Worker Protection laws in the nation, he wants to keep it that way forever, especially if the country goes another direction weve seen in a whole number of states. That Worker Protections of actually been reversed in the last few years. And so in california, we simply want enshrine the constitution. What currently exists. For employees that employees can bargain over their wages. Boys can bargain over their working conditions. Make sure that should the United States Supreme Court decide to go otherwise that that were protected. But the proposal does have some opposition.

We sit down with the jose state professor on where things could go from here. But after the break. Developing now, elon musk is threatening to sue a nonprofit that research to an increase in hate speech on twitter now known as ax attorneys for say that the organization known as the center for countering digital hate intended to harm its business by driving advertisers away from the platform with the claims the Center Published several Research Reports documenting what they say was a rise in hate speech on the platform sense. Elon musk took over. They claim hes trying to silence its critics despite his claims to support free speech. For more insight on all this, san jose state professor doctor Sean Fletcher joins us live tonight to doctor fletcher. Thanks for joining us. Truth is a defense, right . If if this group says that they have evidence that hate speech is on the rise and they can prove that. There theres no grounds for a lawsuit. Is there . No, there absolutely is. And i think, was important to understand that when it comes to independent Academic Research that weve seen for many, many centers out there. The Pew Research Center deployed a number of different independent Research Companies and farms do a tremendous amount of work out there. That should be protected legally speaking, it is protected. But what were starting to see, many of these companies do and elon is setting a very dangerous precedent. Is there starting to attack the credibility of this independent research . And for someone like the line attacking the credibility, even if he doesnt win in the court of law is a victory for him. Well, okay, but professor, were talking about something thats measurable that you can show the statistics and it in which case, doesnt that just take all the air out of his sails . Weve seen that. It and weve you want to go back and forth when it comes down to the selfproclaimed free speech absolutist. I believe he called him. Until we start to critics come after him, weve seen that hes banned the number of journalists practice a freedom of we saying that hes come after a number of different thing takes on a number of different restarts research centers. It doesnt matter if its credible research. We understand the bottom line, though, that when it comes down to it is that he is protecting the Revenue Generating stream which is advertising over. 85 1 of twitter now revenue comes from advertising he could win by even independent research, he stands a good chance of attracting more appetizing. But if hes attracting the kinds of people who are engaging in hate spree speech, what kind advertisers want to be on that platform . Is that helping . Him in the long run. Well, that remains to be saying we saying that it has not been a deterrent for many until became bad for business. It was not much of a deterrent for many advertisers today. And we saw when he took over in october of last year, one of the first things that he did were strip away. Many of the different this information and misinformation, protective measures that were there even actually taking steps to get rid of the individual with that. So we we see thats not a tremendous value of his to the integrity of information thats passing across this platform. But we continue to say it again to dismay. That cash is king and these organizations continue to advertise and promote that platform will be interesting to say with the rising competition the rays and outlets present information from a business standpoint, it will be interesting to where advertisers go. Yeah, i want to play devils advocate here for a moment. I mean, it is a business as is threat to as is going to go. Theyre there to make money. So its understandable that, you know, he would want to protect his brand, but oftentimes some of the things that you see done is selfinflicted wounds. Yes, but i i dont have the statistics in front of me right now. But it seemed when the transition was a lot of advertisers decided to go so they theyve lost advertising. Before last that yeah, before this Research Even came out. Yeah, absolutely. Theyve lost advertisers and advertisers have come back that we hate speech on twitter is not a new phenomenon. It was just policed prior to elon taking it was a significant issue in its flights. Not surprisingly around. 26 pain around the election. A very divisive time in our country as we continue to stake. But it was not they know he was about least ripped away those accountability measures. And we saw advertisers, they they board. Again, i come from the Public Relations space until it becomes bad for business. We have seen advertisers stick with this platform. What i will be interested to is that now that it is almost become a toxic x has become a toxic brand. Now it is in bold crabber tie that to move their money and ill be interested to see where they move it to doctor Sean Fletcher from san jose state university. A lot to talk about here.
