His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

On Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin once again missed a deadline to turn over the president’s tax returns while awaiting guidance from the Justice Department.

But SB 50 is just one of dozens of bills that are being considered to fix a statewide housing crisis. California Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland, has introduced several housing measures, including one that would require landlords to annually report evictions and rent hikes at the properties they own.

And in November, a ballot measure with similar aims — Proposition 10 — was defeated by nearly 60% of voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The latest effort, AB 36, would have allowed, but not required, cities to place rent caps on units more than 20 years old, and on single-family homes owned by landlords who own more than 10 buildings. The bill was withdrawn by its author, Assemblyman Richard Bloom, D-Santa Monica, shortly before its consideration before the Assembly Housing and Community Development Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The controversial bill would have amended the nearly 25-year-old Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, which prevents California cities from placing rent control on single-family homes and condominiums, and on any units built after 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I am asking that AB 36 be moved to Rules so we can continue to work towards reasonable reforms to Costa-Hawkins to deliver meaningful protections to the millions of California renters who are struggling to remain housed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Assemblymember Bloom (@AsmRichardBloom) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AsmRichardBloom/status/1121294632241864705?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 25, 2019\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>A separate measure, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB1482\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AB 1482\u003c/a>, which was advanced Thursday by the same committee, would cap yearly rent increases at 5% plus the rate of inflation for the estimated 15 million California renters not covered by rent control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What this cap does is protect the most egregious increases in rent,\" said Assemblyman David Chiu, D-San Francisco. \"It provides a sense of certainty and stability.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds of landlords and renters crammed a small hearing room in the state Capitol to voice their opinions on the bill. Landlord groups, opposed to the legislation, argued that the bill could lead to tighter restrictions on rent increases in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our concerns are not as much about this current bill, but the future temptation and demands that the Legislature will face to lower the (cap),\" said Debra Carlton, senior vice president of public affairs with the California Apartment Association. \"AB 36 is something that would have been much more extreme. There was no way that there could be support for moving more units under a strict form of rent control, when next to it you had Mr. Chiu's bill.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In February, Oregon passed the first bill in the country to combat \"rent gouging,\" placing a limit on rent increases at 7% plus inflation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assembly members Brian Maienschein, D-San Diego, and Sharon Quirk-Silva, D-Fullerton, both moderates, helped swing the vote in favor of AB 1482. In supporting the bill, they asked that Chiu add language to make sure that the rent cap remains consistent in future years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the bill comes to the floor without additional types of assurances, I would reserve my vote as a no vote,\" Quirk-Silva said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of tenant activists attended the hearing after spending the previous night camped out in Gov. Gavin Newsom's office, pushing him to support both renter bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am grateful that members of the Assembly voted today to continue moving forward on one piece of the housing affordability solution — creating a renter protection package,\" Newsom said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, another push is underway to put rent control back on the ballot. The AIDS Healthcare Foundation, a backer of Proposition 10, filed an initiative last week to allow the statewide expansion of rent control with hopes of getting the measure on the 2020 ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

And in November, a ballot measure with similar aims — Proposition 10 — was defeated by nearly 60% of voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The latest effort, AB 36, would have allowed, but not required, cities to place rent caps on units more than 20 years old, and on single-family homes owned by landlords who own more than 10 buildings. The bill was withdrawn by its author, Assemblyman Richard Bloom, D-Santa Monica, shortly before its consideration before the Assembly Housing and Community Development Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The controversial bill would have amended the nearly 25-year-old Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, which prevents California cities from placing rent control on single-family homes and condominiums, and on any units built after 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I am asking that AB 36 be moved to Rules so we can continue to work towards reasonable reforms to Costa-Hawkins to deliver meaningful protections to the millions of California renters who are struggling to remain housed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Assemblymember Bloom (@AsmRichardBloom) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AsmRichardBloom/status/1121294632241864705?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 25, 2019\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>A separate measure, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB1482\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AB 1482\u003c/a>, which was advanced Thursday by the same committee, would cap yearly rent increases at 5% plus the rate of inflation for the estimated 15 million California renters not covered by rent control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What this cap does is protect the most egregious increases in rent,\" said Assemblyman David Chiu, D-San Francisco. \"It provides a sense of certainty and stability.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds of landlords and renters crammed a small hearing room in the state Capitol to voice their opinions on the bill. Landlord groups, opposed to the legislation, argued that the bill could lead to tighter restrictions on rent increases in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our concerns are not as much about this current bill, but the future temptation and demands that the Legislature will face to lower the (cap),\" said Debra Carlton, senior vice president of public affairs with the California Apartment Association. \"AB 36 is something that would have been much more extreme. There was no way that there could be support for moving more units under a strict form of rent control, when next to it you had Mr. Chiu's bill.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In February, Oregon passed the first bill in the country to combat \"rent gouging,\" placing a limit on rent increases at 7% plus inflation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assembly members Brian Maienschein, D-San Diego, and Sharon Quirk-Silva, D-Fullerton, both moderates, helped swing the vote in favor of AB 1482. In supporting the bill, they asked that Chiu add language to make sure that the rent cap remains consistent in future years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the bill comes to the floor without additional types of assurances, I would reserve my vote as a no vote,\" Quirk-Silva said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of tenant activists attended the hearing after spending the previous night camped out in Gov. Gavin Newsom's office, pushing him to support both renter bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am grateful that members of the Assembly voted today to continue moving forward on one piece of the housing affordability solution — creating a renter protection package,\" Newsom said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, another push is underway to put rent control back on the ballot. The AIDS Healthcare Foundation, a backer of Proposition 10, filed an initiative last week to allow the statewide expansion of rent control with hopes of getting the measure on the 2020 ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They said, 'Well, we can't get you on anything else, but we'll get you on this.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nimmo said he accepted the ticket and went down to Loaves & Fishes, which provides services to the homeless, to use their legal aid services to get it taken care of. He wound up with six hours of community service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was really upset,\" Nimmo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local officials say homeless camping along the American River Parkway, a 23-mile stretch along the American River, has always been an issue. The dense trees and brush make it easy to be discreet. But around this time of the year, when the river rises, it forces residents to move away from the water and to more visible spaces, such as levees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to this year, rangers would often ticket homeless residents during these seasons for camping on the parkway. But then the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the \u003ca href=\"https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2018/09/04/15-35845.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Martin v. City of Boise\u003c/a> decision in 2018, which argued that citing homeless people for camping — when there's nowhere else for them to go — falls under cruel and unusual punishment and therefore is unconstitutional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Basically what it did was say, effectively, you cannot as a park ranger or a city cop give a ticket for camping,\" said Tamara Edge, legal director at Loaves & Fishes. \"If anything, the harassment has increased, not decreased.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edge said that, along with the rash of ticketing for specific offenses, they're seeing three or four under one citation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So, on average, they'd get like six hours for one citation. But now they're getting close to 12 or 24 hours because they're cited for three different things,\" Edge said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Park officials said they do not take housing status into account when writing citations, and that anyone on the parkway performing these actions would be ticketed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County officials also argue they have a responsibility to the ecological health of the parkway as much as to the homeless residents who live there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have to be an advocate for both constituencies,\" said Sacramento County Supervisor Phil Serna, whose district is bisected by the parkway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have an equal responsibility to express compassion and whatever authority I can exercise to influence the application of resources to help house people, to help shelter people, to help them reach stability if they are suffering substance abuse and mental health challenges,\" Serna said. \"I also have that same responsibility to my constituents that live in neighborhoods adjacent to the parkway, who are feeling the impacts of having people live atop the crowns of the levee.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the issue, according to some advocates, is a lack of shelter space for homeless people — a problem that Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg has made one of his central issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That stereotype, 'Oh, people don't want help,' isn't true, if you engage them in a consistent and assertive way and build that trust. We're doing that,\" Steinberg said. \"We need a low-barrier shelter. We haven't had that in Sacramento. We are now committed to creating 800 units.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But until those beds open, advocates argue that ticketing homeless people along the parkway for issues like having a shopping cart could fall under the same Boise decision and be considered cruel and unusual punishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've really seen a dramatic increase, not only in other citations written for homeless people, but also in terms of arrests — misdemeanor arrests, felony arrests, etc. Those jumped pretty dramatically as well,\" said Bob Erlenbusch, executive director of the Sacramento Regional Coalition to End Homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erlenbusch said they're consulting with the National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty in Washington, D.C., which was part of the Boise decision, to see if the county's actions violate the law.
