If elected, would you support a raise to $20 an hour for IHSS workers. If you disagree with the union's proposed dollar 20 an hour, what number would you support? I would support [a raise to $20 an hour for IHSS workers], but to me, it's too low. The fact that we're paying these folks that take care of our most vulnerable populations, that type of wages, is just ridiculous. And I say that as the son of a home care worker, retiree. (32:54–32:58)

CLAIM

Asserts support for raising IHSS workers' wages to $20 an hour, but considers it insufficient.
