Assemblyman Warren Furutani, D-Lakewood, in collaboration the non-profit group Next 10, will host a town hall meeting about the California budget Saturday in Torrance.

Next 10 has created an innovative budget challenge simulation that mirrors the decisions the Legislature will have to make to balance the state's budget deficit. The simulation contains accurate figures for California's revenues and expenditures, the governor's proposed cuts and alternatives so that the audience can make the decisions.

The free event will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Halldale Avenue Elementary School, 21514 Halldale Ave., in Torrance.
