Four-term U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer joins us to talk about California’s drought, her push to raise the federal minimum wage and the Democrats’ fight to retain control of the Senate, among other issues facing the state and the nation. We’ll also ask her about how the Netflix series “House of Cards” (which she binge-watches) compares to real-life Washington.
