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.",

It was linked to lettuce from the Yuma, Arizona, growing region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of those who became ill, federal health officials say 75 people were hospitalized. Earlier this month, federal officials announced that 39 people in California became sick from eating the lettuce, including one person who died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At that point, representatives for the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) refused to provide any details about the person who died, including where the death took place, citing laws protecting the privacy of medical patients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fundamental principle is that CDPH and local health departments are required to keep this information confidential and may not release information that could identify the subject of such a report,” the department said in a statement emailed to KQED in early May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For several weeks, KQED pressed agency officials to release the name of the county where the E. coli patient died and the department repeatedly refused. That changed on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is Madera County,” said Corey Egel, a CDPH spokesman, in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Health officials in Madera County confirmed the one death in their county attributed to the E. coli outbreak, noting a pathology report that linked the case to the recent strain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, like the state, they would not release any information about the patient’s gender and age, also citing privacy concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We really need to hold those details due to patient confidentiality,” said Sara Bosse, the county’s director of public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/Food/RecallsOutbreaksEmergencies/Outbreaks/ucm604254.htm#update\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Food and Drug Administration\u003c/a> is still looking for the source of the outbreak at farms and packaging plants around Yuma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FDA said it received confirmation from officials in Arizona that the romaine lettuce tied to the outbreak was no longer being produced and distributed. The agency added that it was unlikely that any romaine lettuce from the Yuma area was still available in stores or restaurants because it has a 21-day shelf life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal health officials say symptoms connected to the E. coli outbreak include severe stomach cramps and bloody diarrhea. Most people get better within five to seven days but a small percentage of those diagnosed with the particular strain can experience more severe symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Jerry Brown was sworn in seven years ago, he inherited a prison system that by most accounts was at a breaking point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Years of “tough on crime” laws had packed state lockups to the brim. Federal judges \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/24/us/24scotus.html\">told California leaders they needed to reduce the prison population by 40,000 inmates\u003c/a>, or else the court would start releasing prisoners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So one of Brown’s first big moves as governor was a \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2011/04/05/news16964/\">proposal to massively change how the state dealt with nonviolent offenders\u003c/a>: Assembly Bill 109 shifted their sentences from state prison to county jails, and let them report to county probation departments rather than state parole officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters, including state Sen. Mark Leno, said the change — dubbed “criminal justice realignment” — would let the state save money, reduce crowding and tackle its dismal recidivism rate, which saw 70 percent of offenders return to prison within three years of release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leno, a San Francisco Democrat, carried the \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201120120AB109\">663-page realignment bill\u003c/a> through the Senate, a proposal that Republicans opposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we can all acknowledge we have a failed very expensive system currently,” Leno told lawmakers during a March 2011 debate. “For example, if someone has a drug or alcohol problem, currently when they fail parole, we send them back to state prison at a cost of about $50,000 a year. And guess what — we’re not dealing with the problem. Locals, with the funding we will be providing, will be able to invest in a variety of different programs, to get to the core of the problem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The success of realignment \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11108031/five-years-later-many-see-criminal-justice-realignment-as-success\">is still being debated\u003c/a>. But it’s clear that the bill was just the beginning of a series of sweeping criminal justice reforms California would embrace over Brown’s two terms in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>Where the candidates stand\u003c/h3>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>“As governor, I will reverse the soft-on-crime laws of Jerry Brown and the California Democrats. Liberal laws like AB 109 and Propositions 47 and 57 have released thousands of criminals and sex offenders from jails and prisons and into our neighborhoods, feeding the explosion of homeless encampments, drug users and criminals in our neighborhoods.”\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>Travis Allen\u003c/cite>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>“As governor, I will help lead the difficult conversations that must happen between law enforcement and communities of color and emphasize a community-oriented approach to policing that builds stronger relationships and understanding.”\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>John Chiang\u003c/cite>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>“I’d take a very different approach than Jerry Brown’s. On day one as governor I would act to end the sanctuary state law. I will also advocate for full repeal of Prop. 47 and AB 109 to remove the criminal element plaguing our streets.”\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite> John Cox\u003c/cite>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>“I believe strongly that our next governor should lead efforts to eliminate the discriminatory cash bail system and take on the private prison industrial complex. Bail bondsmen and the for-profit prison industry should have no place in California’s future.”\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>Gavin Newsom\u003c/cite>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>“Research has made abundantly clear that investments in early care and education have significant impacts in improving educational outcomes.

That measure has helped reduce the populations in county jails, and allowed thousands of people with past relevant felonies to petition the courts to have their records cleared. Any changes would need to be approved by voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics blame Proposition 47 for the \u003ca href=\"https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/crime-statistics/crimes-clearances\">slight increase\u003c/a> in property crimes seen statewide since 2014 and the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Property-crimes-violence-increases-in-San-12723981.php\">large spikes in some big cities\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’d take a very different approach than Jerry Brown’s,” Cox said in a statement to KQED. “On day one as governor I would act to end the sanctuary state law, I will also advocate for full repeal of Prop.47 and AB 109 to remove the criminal element plaguing our streets.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allen went even further, promising to “reverse the soft-on-crime laws of Jerry Brown and the California Democrats,” including Brown’s \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_57,_Parole_for_Non-Violent_Criminals_and_Juvenile_Court_Trial_Requirements_(2016)\">Proposition 57\u003c/a>, which made it easier for people who participate in rehabilitation programs to win their parole from prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allen also vowed to return to a tougher three strikes law; voters embraced \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/politics/article/3-strikes-law-revised-under-Prop-36-3930347.php\">changes to that law in 2012\u003c/a>.

Brown has named a far \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10869617/browns-judicial-appointments-reflect-shift-away-from-harsh-sentencing-policies\">more diverse set of judges\u003c/a> and parole board members than his predecessors, and allowed \u003ca href=\"http://www.kpbs.org/news/2014/mar/19/governor-brown-releasing-more-lifers/\">a record number of parole releases to go forward.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The appointments to the bench do have a very important, long-term effect,” said Kent Scheidegger, legal director of the conservative Criminal Justice Legal Foundation and a critic of Brown’s approach to criminal justice. “It’s a gradual one that doesn’t necessarily show up right away. But I think we are seeing California courts generally, and the California Supreme Court in particular, being more receptive to arguments made by defendants.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scheidegger said the governor’s political power — and fundraising strength — have also had an impact. Brown has put his sizable war chest behind promoting changes at the ballot box like 2016’s Proposition 57.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That measure chipped away at a legacy from Brown’s first terms as governor that many blame for the prison overcrowding: determinate sentencing, which sets a fixed prison term at the time of conviction. Proposition 57 gave the parole board more discretion on when to release an inmate. Scheidegger opposed Proposition 57, and believes the governor is “fundamentally mistaken on a lot of sentencing issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But criminal justice reform advocates like Lenore Anderson believe the changes of the last seven years are only the beginning. Anderson is director of Californians for Safety and Justice, which wrote Proposition 47.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s been so exciting to see in California over the last few years is the popularity of criminal justice reform being demonstrated at the ballot,” she said. “Realignment was enacted through the Legislature and at the time the common-sense thinking was that the public may not be ready for criminal justice reform. But what we found out through Prop. 47 and Prop. 57 is the reverse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anderson believes the next governor should tackle something that seemed impossible just seven years ago: closing state prisons and finally reducing the amount of money Californians spend on incarceration.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Brown has named a far \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10869617/browns-judicial-appointments-reflect-shift-away-from-harsh-sentencing-policies\">more diverse set of judges\u003c/a> and parole board members than his predecessors, and allowed \u003ca href=\"http://www.kpbs.org/news/2014/mar/19/governor-brown-releasing-more-lifers/\">a record number of parole releases to go forward.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The appointments to the bench do have a very important, long-term effect,” said Kent Scheidegger, legal director of the conservative Criminal Justice Legal Foundation and a critic of Brown’s approach to criminal justice. “It’s a gradual one that doesn’t necessarily show up right away. But I think we are seeing California courts generally, and the California Supreme Court in particular, being more receptive to arguments made by defendants.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scheidegger said the governor’s political power — and fundraising strength — have also had an impact. Brown has put his sizable war chest behind promoting changes at the ballot box like 2016’s Proposition 57.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That measure chipped away at a legacy from Brown’s first terms as governor that many blame for the prison overcrowding: determinate sentencing, which sets a fixed prison term at the time of conviction. Proposition 57 gave the parole board more discretion on when to release an inmate. Scheidegger opposed Proposition 57, and believes the governor is “fundamentally mistaken on a lot of sentencing issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But criminal justice reform advocates like Lenore Anderson believe the changes of the last seven years are only the beginning. Anderson is director of Californians for Safety and Justice, which wrote Proposition 47.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s been so exciting to see in California over the last few years is the popularity of criminal justice reform being demonstrated at the ballot,” she said. “Realignment was enacted through the Legislature and at the time the common-sense thinking was that the public may not be ready for criminal justice reform. But what we found out through Prop. 47 and Prop. 57 is the reverse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Uber is the latest corporation to join the national-TV-corporate-apology bandwagon. It is now riding along with Facebook and Wells Fargo. If you watched any of the Warriors-Rockets playoff series, you’ve probably seen all three ads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The message: Please trust us again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s no surprise these three companies are buying prime-time air space. They’ve all majorly screwed up in very public ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Wells Fargo scandal has been going on the longest. Several years ago news broke that bankers at the company were \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11127101\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">opening fake accounts in order to hit sales goals\u003c/a>. That practice brought a number of lawsuits and eventually fines from the Securities and Exchange Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of last year was a public image disaster for Uber. First, users faulted Uber for appearing unsympathetic to anti-Trump protesters. Then, a former employee wrote about a culture of misogyny. News also came out about how little drivers earned. Many of the corporate culture issues were tied to the former CEO, Travis Kalanick, who has since been replaced. (Note: This is probably why the new CEO is front and center narrating the apology ad). Since all these scandals, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11643681/lyft-gains-on-uber-by-appealing-to-progressive-political-ideals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Uber has lost significant market share to Lyft\u003c/a>, which has stayed out of the headlines while branding itself as the more socially conscious alternative-ride service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMZyw5lPKgE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People have been increasingly \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11657315\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">criticizing Facebook ever since the 2016 election\u003c/a>, but the criticism peaked over news that data from as many as 87 million user profiles ended up in the hands of an advertising company working for the Trump campaign. The news got so bad that CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified in front of Congress. Even though there has been a bunch of backlash, Facebook hasn’t appeared to take a hit. Its quarterly earnings were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/25/facebook-earnings-q1-2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">well above the projected amount.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As you might expect, each of these apology ads is filled with platitudes and sloganlike rhetoric. They also all follow a similar pattern. First we hear about the company’s successes and accomplishments. Then there is the mistake and mishaps. And finally, promises of redemption.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/1rrivHxCeeY\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Wells Fargo ad trumpets its history, showing us the trusty stagecoach that is the bank’s emblem. The Uber ad talks up how it has helped people get places and has provided opportunities. Facebook filled its ad with lots of cute pictures of babies, friends and birthday parties. It accompanied the feel-good imagery with a narrator who talks about how the service makes us feel just a little bit less alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then comes the moment of the mistake. And the ads all handle this a little bit differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wells Fargo talks about how the company “lost its way,” but it doesn’t bring up the specifics of how it went astray. Uber is even less direct. It doesn’t talk about a past problem, but the new CEO says if “there are times when we fall short, we commit to being open, taking responsibility for the problem, and fixing it.” Facebook has a particularly clever way of bringing up its problems without admitting guilt. And it has to do with how the video is narrated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The narrator is a Facebook user, not someone from the company or the company itself. This user point of view helps Facebook frame its problems as something that just occurred rather than something caused directly by its policies. This is literally what the narrator says: “Then something happened.

If you watched any of the Warriors-Rockets playoff series, you’ve probably seen all three ads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The message: Please trust us again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s no surprise these three companies are buying prime-time air space. They’ve all majorly screwed up in very public ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Wells Fargo scandal has been going on the longest. Several years ago news broke that bankers at the company were \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11127101\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">opening fake accounts in order to hit sales goals\u003c/a>. That practice brought a number of lawsuits and eventually fines from the Securities and Exchange Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of last year was a public image disaster for Uber. First, users faulted Uber for appearing unsympathetic to anti-Trump protesters. Then, a former employee wrote about a culture of misogyny. News also came out about how little drivers earned. Many of the corporate culture issues were tied to the former CEO, Travis Kalanick, who has since been replaced. (Note: This is probably why the new CEO is front and center narrating the apology ad). Since all these scandals, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11643681/lyft-gains-on-uber-by-appealing-to-progressive-political-ideals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Uber has lost significant market share to Lyft\u003c/a>, which has stayed out of the headlines while branding itself as the more socially conscious alternative-ride service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The news got so bad that CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified in front of Congress. Even though there has been a bunch of backlash, Facebook hasn’t appeared to take a hit. Its quarterly earnings were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/25/facebook-earnings-q1-2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">well above the projected amount.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As you might expect, each of these apology ads is filled with platitudes and sloganlike rhetoric. They also all follow a similar pattern. First we hear about the company’s successes and accomplishments. Then there is the mistake and mishaps. And finally, promises of redemption.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/1rrivHxCeeY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/1rrivHxCeeY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The Wells Fargo ad trumpets its history, showing us the trusty stagecoach that is the bank’s emblem. The Uber ad talks up how it has helped people get places and has provided opportunities. Facebook filled its ad with lots of cute pictures of babies, friends and birthday parties. It accompanied the feel-good imagery with a narrator who talks about how the service makes us feel just a little bit less alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then comes the moment of the mistake. And the ads all handle this a little bit differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wells Fargo talks about how the company “lost its way,” but it doesn’t bring up the specifics of how it went astray. Uber is even less direct. It doesn’t talk about a past problem, but the new CEO says if “there are times when we fall short, we commit to being open, taking responsibility for the problem, and fixing it.” Facebook has a particularly clever way of bringing up its problems without admitting guilt. And it has to do with how the video is narrated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The narrator is a Facebook user, not someone from the company or the company itself. This user point of view helps Facebook frame its problems as something that just occurred rather than something caused directly by its policies. This is literally what the narrator says: “Then something happened. We had to deal with spam, clickbait, fake news and data misuse.” There’s no indication of how or why Facebook allowed all of this to occur.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/Q4zd7X98eOs'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/Q4zd7X98eOs'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Finally, we get to the promises.

"content": "\u003cp>The U.S. House of Representatives voted down the so-called farm bill Friday on a \u003ca href=\"http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2018/roll205.xml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">213-198 vote\u003c/a>. The bill’s failure proved a high-stakes embarrassment to GOP leadership, which spent days attempting to wrangle enough votes for the massive piece of legislation setting agriculture and food policy, with a price tag of $857 billion over 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As expected, all Democrats voted against the measure. They were also joined by 30 Republicans, many of them members of the House Freedom Caucus, who voted “no” after failing to get concessions on spending and a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/17/politics/conservative-bill-immigration-daca-negotiations/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">future vote on immigration\u003c/a> in exchange for their support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the big picture, the farm bill would have continued subsidies for farmers. But a key sticking point in the measure, particularly for Democrats, was proposed changes to food stamps — officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP — which helps \u003ca href=\"https://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-snap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">42 million Americans, \u003c/a>including one in 10 Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi characterized the bill as “cruel” and “destructive,” and summed up her party’s stiff opposition just two hours before the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/NancyPelosi/status/997488952369143808\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Agriculture and Nutrition Act of 2018 \u003c/a>proposed to shift billions of dollars to employment and training programs, while substantially increasing the number of people who would need to prove they are working or enrolled in job training to get the monthly nutrition benefits, which average $126 per person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While opponents argued the changes would lead to more low-income Americans going hungry, supporters said they would help move people out of poverty and strengthen the country’s workforce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Food stamps should be for the neediest in our community,” said \u003ca href=\"https://denham.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Jeff Denham\u003c/a> (R-Turlock), a member of the \u003ca href=\"https://agriculture.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">House Committee on Agriculture\u003c/a>, who voted for the farm bill in committee last month. “If you’re able-bodied and you are work-capable, we want to make sure you find a job and you get the training that you need to lift yourself out of poverty.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationwide, adults ages 18 to 49 who don’t have dependents or disabilities must prove they are working or in job training at least 20 hours per week to receive SNAP benefits for more than three months. The bill would have substantially expanded the requirement to include adults up to age 59 and parents with children older than age 5. Recipients would have had to show they were meeting the new rules on a monthly basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Denham represents a portion of the Central Valley, a region where SNAP, called\u003ca href=\"http://www.cdss.ca.gov/food-nutrition/calfresh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> CalFresh\u003c/a> in California, helps reduce more poverty than elsewhere in the state, according to an \u003ca href=\"http://calbudgetcenter.org/resources/calfresh-cuts-poverty-congressional-districts/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">analysis\u003c/a> by the California Budget & Policy Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Denham acknowledged the potential difficulty for low-income Californians who are already struggling to get by. But he said his own family was able to get off the food aid when he was growing up to achieve greater financial stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, when my parents were on food stamps it was a challenging situation where my mom needed to go back out and get new training to be able to get a new job,” Denham said. “It’s very difficult, I get it. But I also understand that you are able to improve your life by working and actually having a job.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spending on SNAP and other nutrition programs makes up the largest portion of the farm bill’s cost, about 76 percent. Last year, the federal government spent $68 billion on the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the failed bill, about 1.2 million people would have stopped receiving SNAP benefits as a result of the tighter work requirements in 2028, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbpp.org/blog/6-takeaways-from-cbo-estimate-of-house-agriculture-committee-snap-proposals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according\u003c/a> to the nonpartisan Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. The majority of them would have been parents with older kids — although children receiving the benefit would not be affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For food banks, that spelled bad news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any cuts to SNAP guarantee that we will see an increase of individuals, families in our food pantry lines. And we are not prepared to meet that need,” said Natalie Caples, chief operations officer at\u003ca href=\"http://www.communityfoodbank.net/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Community Food Bank\u003c/a>, which serves Fresno and four other counties in the Central Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caples said that for every 12 meals that SNAP provides, food banks in the\u003ca href=\"http://www.feedingamerica.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Feeding America\u003c/a> network make up just one meal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s no way,” she said. “We don’t have the resources to make up those additional meals that SNAP currently provides in our service area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11668977\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11668977\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People wait their turn to get bags of fresh vegetables, bread and other staples at a food pantry volunteers set up by a park in Mendota, California, on May 10, 2018. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At a food pantry that volunteers set up in a parking lot in\u003ca href=\"http://ci.mendota.ca.us/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Mendota\u003c/a>, a small city surrounded by agricultural fields, Maria Escobar awaited her turn to reach for a Community Food Bank cardboard box with cabbage and broccoli, bread, a chicken and other staples.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Escobar, 30, said she sometimes supplements her household’s CalFresh benefits with additional food from the pantry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With my kids, it’s really difficult, because food is so expensive,” Escobar said.

The bill’s failure proved a high-stakes embarrassment to GOP leadership, which spent days attempting to wrangle enough votes for the massive piece of legislation setting agriculture and food policy, with a price tag of $857 billion over 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As expected, all Democrats voted against the measure. They were also joined by 30 Republicans, many of them members of the House Freedom Caucus, who voted “no” after failing to get concessions on spending and a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/17/politics/conservative-bill-immigration-daca-negotiations/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">future vote on immigration\u003c/a> in exchange for their support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the big picture, the farm bill would have continued subsidies for farmers. But a key sticking point in the measure, particularly for Democrats, was proposed changes to food stamps — officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP — which helps \u003ca href=\"https://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-snap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">42 million Americans, \u003c/a>including one in 10 Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi characterized the bill as “cruel” and “destructive,” and summed up her party’s stiff opposition just two hours before the vote.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Jeff Denham\u003c/a> (R-Turlock), a member of the \u003ca href=\"https://agriculture.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">House Committee on Agriculture\u003c/a>, who voted for the farm bill in committee last month. “If you’re able-bodied and you are work-capable, we want to make sure you find a job and you get the training that you need to lift yourself out of poverty.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationwide, adults ages 18 to 49 who don’t have dependents or disabilities must prove they are working or in job training at least 20 hours per week to receive SNAP benefits for more than three months. The bill would have substantially expanded the requirement to include adults up to age 59 and parents with children older than age 5. Recipients would have had to show they were meeting the new rules on a monthly basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Denham represents a portion of the Central Valley, a region where SNAP, called\u003ca href=\"http://www.cdss.ca.gov/food-nutrition/calfresh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> CalFresh\u003c/a> in California, helps reduce more poverty than elsewhere in the state, according to an \u003ca href=\"http://calbudgetcenter.org/resources/calfresh-cuts-poverty-congressional-districts/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">analysis\u003c/a> by the California Budget & Policy Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Denham acknowledged the potential difficulty for low-income Californians who are already struggling to get by. But he said his own family was able to get off the food aid when he was growing up to achieve greater financial stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, when my parents were on food stamps it was a challenging situation where my mom needed to go back out and get new training to be able to get a new job,” Denham said. “It’s very difficult, I get it. But I also understand that you are able to improve your life by working and actually having a job.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spending on SNAP and other nutrition programs makes up the largest portion of the farm bill’s cost, about 76 percent. Last year, the federal government spent $68 billion on the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the failed bill, about 1.2 million people would have stopped receiving SNAP benefits as a result of the tighter work requirements in 2028, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbpp.org/blog/6-takeaways-from-cbo-estimate-of-house-agriculture-committee-snap-proposals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according\u003c/a> to the nonpartisan Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. The majority of them would have been parents with older kids — although children receiving the benefit would not be affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For food banks, that spelled bad news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any cuts to SNAP guarantee that we will see an increase of individuals, families in our food pantry lines. And we are not prepared to meet that need,” said Natalie Caples, chief operations officer at\u003ca href=\"http://www.communityfoodbank.net/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Community Food Bank\u003c/a>, which serves Fresno and four other counties in the Central Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caples said that for every 12 meals that SNAP provides, food banks in the\u003ca href=\"http://www.feedingamerica.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Feeding America\u003c/a> network make up just one meal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s no way,” she said. “We don’t have the resources to make up those additional meals that SNAP currently provides in our service area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11668977\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11668977\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RS30999_IMG_1665-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People wait their turn to get bags of fresh vegetables, bread and other staples at a food pantry volunteers set up by a park in Mendota, California, on May 10, 2018. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At a food pantry that volunteers set up in a parking lot in\u003ca href=\"http://ci.mendota.ca.us/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Mendota\u003c/a>, a small city surrounded by agricultural fields, Maria Escobar awaited her turn to reach for a Community Food Bank cardboard box with cabbage and broccoli, bread, a chicken and other staples.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Escobar, 30, said she sometimes supplements her household’s CalFresh benefits with additional food from the pantry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With my kids, it’s really difficult, because food is so expensive,” Escobar said.
