CA Assemblyman Corey Jackson's Nonprofit Got $6 Million After He Named It "Nonprofit of the Year."

A California Assemblyman named his own nonprofit "Nonprofit of the Year" β€” three weeks before it received a $6 million line item in the state budget he helped pass.

Tonight we pull that budget page and show you the other names on it: a group tied to last year's LA riots that helped write the law shielding itself from scrutiny, and a program with a documented history of funding one of the country's most controversial advocacy organizations.

Plus: a UC Berkeley economist explains why "tax the rich" won't fix California's affordability crisis, and a new poll shows California Democrats don't trust their own party's brand.
