California at 175 Conference: "First in Taxes, First in Results?"

USC Dornsife Center for the Political Future (CPF) presents the "California at 175: Stuck or Moving Forward?" conference on Wednesday, March 4, 2026. Panels featuring experts in politics, policy, campaigns, and strategy analyzed the most pressing questions facing the Golden State today, explored California’s evolving role in national politics, and analyzed what recent moments reveal about California’s political future. This conference was in partnership with the USC Open Dialogue Project and USC Casden Institute, as well as the student organizations USC Political Union (a chapter of BridgeUSA), Trojan Democrats, and USC College Republicans. Panel 3: "First in Taxes, First in Results?" Former Los Angeles Controller Ron Galperin moderated a conversation with political experts David Crane, Bob Hertzberg, and Richard Leib on how California's tax structure compares nationally.
