Los Angeles County supervisors approve new sales tax hike to fund healthcare

Madison Alworth reports on the approval of a sales tax hike in Los Angeles County, which would raise the current 9.75% rate to 10.25% if approved by voters. While intended to cover healthcare costs, the lone Republican supervisor, Kathryn Barger, voted against it, expressing concern that the funds might be misused rather than specifically allocated for healthcare, and highlighting that sales taxes disproportionately affect lower-income individuals.
