As the News Blitz comes to an end, Randy Wang reflects on the past three years of hosting the show and announces his departure from the 5 pm time slot. But before saying goodbye, he dives into the latest debate over street vending in Los Angeles, where candidates Karen Bass and Nithia Rahman have taken opposing sides on the issue.

The debate over street vending has been heating up in the LA Mayor's race, with some arguing that it's a vital part of the city's culture and others claiming it's an unfair advantage to those who don't have to follow the same regulations as brick and mortar restaurants. Randy Wang explores the complexities of the issue, discussing the benefits of street vendors, such as providing a platform for entrepreneurs to sell their wares, but also the concerns about safety and health regulations.

Randy Wang also touches on a related issue, the proposal to eliminate the sales tax on restaurant meals in California. Investor John Pimentel is leading the charge, arguing that this would be a significant relief for families and small businesses. However, state business professor Dr. Caroline Chen warns that this could lead to a significant loss of revenue for cities and counties.

Tune in to the final episode of the News Blitz to hear Randy Wang's thoughts on these issues and more.
