Bill Dodd is a State Senator for California's 3rd District, which encompasses Davis and Yolo county, Sonoma, Rohnert Park, and parts of Solano county. We discuss his path to elected office, his priorities for the remainder of the 2019 legislative session, and discuss at length the myriad issues surrounding wildfire liability for California utilities. Dodd also gives his candid thoughts on a potential end-of-session play for a statewide bond issuance to provide a financial backstop for utility liabilities.
