Long Beach schools to get more dollars for needy students

Those who will benefit most from the proposal are English-language learners, foster youth and low-income families.  Hear from the student activists as they traveled to Sacramento to lobby for the bill, on Voicewaves.[youtube=http://youtu.be/p5_cLntHwJ8]
