The role new Sen. Laphonza Butler could play in Congress
California Gov. Gavin Newsom tapped Laphonza Butler to fill the Senate seat long held by Diane Feinstein, who died last week. Butler is the second Black woman to represent California in the Senate, following Vice President Kamala Harris, who swore her in today. The appointment heats up the Democratic primary race to permanently fill the seat. Geoff Bennett discussed that with Marisa Lagos of KQED.
