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.",

"content": "\u003cp>The hottest thing on Capitol Hill this week is a document that no one in the outside world is allowed to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A secret four-page memorandum prepared by the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee has become a rallying cry for Republicans waging a sustained campaign against the FBI and the Justice Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The document, pulled together by Republican California Rep. Devin Nunes, alleges that the Obama administration abused the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in targeting the Trump campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The specifics aren't clear because it is classified and available only to members of Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is clear is that Nunes' colleagues who have read the memo say it must be public. But the process by which Congress could release a document involving classified information from the executive branch is fraught -- and Nunes has so far not taken the step of sharing it with the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the secrecy has not stopped Republicans from sounding an alarm about what they say is a scandal of epic proportions: a huge alleged abuse of surveillance power by the previous administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"4v6tLg4BKPIy8zFXGgXxbPATBbiA1Wxx\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, meanwhile, dismiss the memo as a new partisan attack on the FBI. They say it's part of a broader GOP campaign to undermine the bureau and, by extension, special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is a quick explanation of the memo and other developments in the churning politics surrounding the Russia probe.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Nunes Memo\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As the House Intelligence Committee sputtered into partisan mudslinging over Russian interference in the 2016 election, Nunes has conducted a parallel probe of his own into what he alleges was the Obama administration's abuse of the surveillance authority known as FISA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The memo is the outcome of Nunes' efforts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some 200 House Republicans have made a trip to a secure facility in the Capitol to read the document. Many have then taken to Twitter or cable news shows to warn of what they say are gross violations by the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, described the memo's conclusions as \"worse than Watergate,\" while Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said the document \"is so alarming the American people have to see this.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The baseline allegation appears to be that the Obama administration used surveillance tools to target the Trump campaign and that the Russia probe is at root a politically motivated investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's about \"the activities of the last administration, the crimes that, I believe, were committed and the total sham that this Mueller investigation is built on a false premise and rotten to the core,\" said Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaetz, the freshman from Florida's 1st District, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/11/11/563049577/as-white-house-makes-nice-with-mueller-gop-allies-sharpen-knives-for-special-cou\">has been out front in building the public case against Mueller\u003c/a>, threading together the 2010 sale of a uranium mining company to the Clinton Foundation and the need for the Justice Department to appoint another special counsel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"aZDvzX0992uTNqQK5zG0PTBiyyinC4W5\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Nunes' memo, it's unclear whether it will ever see the light of day. Republicans say they are searching for a way to declassify the document so it can be released to the public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The standard declassification process would involve sharing the document with the government agencies that own the classified information contained in the memo. Those agencies would review the material before its release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, at least, the FBI says it has not been allowed to see the document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The FBI has requested to receive a copy of the memo in order to evaluate the information and take appropriate steps,\" said FBI spokesman Andrew Ames. \"To date, the request has been declined.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Nunes spokesman did not respond to a question about whether the committee had requested an FBI classification review of the document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under House rules, the intelligence committee can vote to disclose information that it determines is in the public interest. If the vote passes, it would kick the matter to the executive branch for a review. The president can authorize or reject the material's release. The full House could vote to override a presidential objection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters on Tuesday that President Trump might have to be involved with the declassification if the process reaches that point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there is no requirement in law or other forcing function that would mandate the memo be released. And Republicans could calculate that their political hand is stronger if they can discuss the cards they're holding without revealing them.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Democrats: It's a Smoke Screen\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>House Democrats have dismissed the memo and its conclusions as a hit job with the aim of discrediting the Russia investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moreover, they argue, Russian-linked social media accounts have picked up the cause as part of the ongoing campaign of what intelligence officers call \"active measures\" aimed at the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fake online accounts began amplifying controversy and divisions among Americans since 2016 and have never stopped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Intelligence Committee ranking Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff and Senate Judiciary Committee ranking Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein, both of California, called on Facebook and Twitter to investigate the accounts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"l0efbUdWNNJ4d7vyRkSMttxeHTSJK1Hd\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If these reports are accurate, we are witnessing an ongoing attack by the Russian government through Kremlin-linked social media actors directly acting to intervene and influence our democratic process,\" they wrote. \"This should be disconcerting to all Americans, but especially your companies as, once again, it appears the vast majority of their efforts are concentrated on your platforms.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, the nine Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee called the memo a \"misleading set of talking points attacking the FBI.\" They said Republicans want to release it for the \"political purpose of spreading a false narrative and undermining legitimate investigations.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, joined in with a condemnation of his own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Judiciary Committee can no longer be silent while President Trump and his allies attempt to protect themselves by smearing career officials with lies and innuendo,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"1jQXD2aSiANXUhIFpGGV2I5YnxUeBjfo\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Wednesday afternoon, Schiff said Democrats were preparing their own classified memo that rebutted the Republicans' memo, one that also would be available to all the members of the House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Current and former FBI officials complain the nonstop political battles in Washington \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/22/579209787/criminal-cabal-fbi-fears-political-attacks-may-imperil-work-of-field-agents\">are taking a toll on the bureau's reputation\u003c/a> and could hurt the work of special agents doing their jobs in the field.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Text Messages\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Nunes memo is not the only chum in the political waters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans also have seized on anti-Trump text messages between senior FBI agent Peter Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page to support their allegations of political bias within the bureau.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Strzok worked on the Hillary Clinton email investigation and the Russia probe, although Mueller removed him after the text messages came to light.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"uFz7324W0xeNc7r731C9HkKAK2AMPePu\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department provided lawmakers on Capitol Hill with an initial tranche of nearly 400 text messages in December. It recently delivered thousands more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Justice Department also said that it cannot find texts that Strzok and Page sent between Dec. 14, 2016, and approximately May 17, 2017. It blamed a technical glitch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department said in a letter to Nunes that the FBI upgraded its phones to Samsung 7s at the time and that the phones \"did not capture or store text messages due to misconfiguration issues related to rollouts, provisioning, and software upgrades that conflicted with the FBI's collection capabilities.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI's failure to retain the messages over that critical period — during part of the presidential transition up to Mueller's appointment — has added fuel to the political fire and allegations of a \"deep state\" cover-up at the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have vowed to get to the bottom of the missing texts. Trump, meanwhile, took to Twitter to call the missing texts \"one of the biggest stories in a long time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The FBI now says it is missing five months worth of lovers Strzok-Page texts,\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955771016319590400\">he wrote\u003c/a>, \"perhaps 50,000, and all in prime time.

Many have then taken to Twitter or cable news shows to warn of what they say are gross violations by the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, described the memo's conclusions as \"worse than Watergate,\" while Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said the document \"is so alarming the American people have to see this.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The baseline allegation appears to be that the Obama administration used surveillance tools to target the Trump campaign and that the Russia probe is at root a politically motivated investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's about \"the activities of the last administration, the crimes that, I believe, were committed and the total sham that this Mueller investigation is built on a false premise and rotten to the core,\" said Rep.

Republicans say they are searching for a way to declassify the document so it can be released to the public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The standard declassification process would involve sharing the document with the government agencies that own the classified information contained in the memo. Those agencies would review the material before its release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, at least, the FBI says it has not been allowed to see the document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The FBI has requested to receive a copy of the memo in order to evaluate the information and take appropriate steps,\" said FBI spokesman Andrew Ames. \"To date, the request has been declined.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Nunes spokesman did not respond to a question about whether the committee had requested an FBI classification review of the document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under House rules, the intelligence committee can vote to disclose information that it determines is in the public interest. If the vote passes, it would kick the matter to the executive branch for a review. The president can authorize or reject the material's release. The full House could vote to override a presidential objection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters on Tuesday that President Trump might have to be involved with the declassification if the process reaches that point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there is no requirement in law or other forcing function that would mandate the memo be released. And Republicans could calculate that their political hand is stronger if they can discuss the cards they're holding without revealing them.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Democrats: It's a Smoke Screen\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>House Democrats have dismissed the memo and its conclusions as a hit job with the aim of discrediting the Russia investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moreover, they argue, Russian-linked social media accounts have picked up the cause as part of the ongoing campaign of what intelligence officers call \"active measures\" aimed at the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fake online accounts began amplifying controversy and divisions among Americans since 2016 and have never stopped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Intelligence Committee ranking Democrat Rep.

It blamed a technical glitch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department said in a letter to Nunes that the FBI upgraded its phones to Samsung 7s at the time and that the phones \"did not capture or store text messages due to misconfiguration issues related to rollouts, provisioning, and software upgrades that conflicted with the FBI's collection capabilities.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI's failure to retain the messages over that critical period — during part of the presidential transition up to Mueller's appointment — has added fuel to the political fire and allegations of a \"deep state\" cover-up at the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have vowed to get to the bottom of the missing texts.

Jerry Brown says in his final State of the State speech Thursday at the state Capitol, there can be little disagreement that he is leaving his successor a much healthier California than the one he inherited from Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003cem>first\u003c/em> statewide address as governor that year, Brown didn't minimize the challenges ahead. He described the coming legislative session, which he predicted would be \"extraordinarily difficult and wrenching\" as the state grappled with a huge budget deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"California faces a crisis that is real and unprecedented,\" Brown told assembled legislators and guests, adding that \"kicking the can down the road by not owning an honest budget is simply out of the question.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documents.dgs.ca.gov/osp/GovernorsBudget/pdf/Governors_Budget_2011-2012.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first budget\u003c/a> he signed in June 2011 cut state spending by $15 billion, making changes that helped pave the way for California's economic recovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"GThLHF5jxub7xsNJcOUXNroeRt7HWgVP\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, the old investment advice \"buy low, sell high\" applies to politics as well.

Palmer with the state Department of Finance points out that Brown faced a budget deficit of more than $27 billion when he took office for the second time in 2011, having first served as governor from 1975 to '83. His administration will end with a state budget surplus of more than $6 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Absent an economic crisis or a natural disaster, the one thing that his successor will be able to enjoy,\" Palmer said, \"is the fact that the budget will be in good shape and that he or she will not have to immediately deal with the kind of budget crisis that Gov.

The state's economy has been strong. According to the Department of Finance, non-farm jobs have increased by more than 18 percent during Brown's most recent time in office. Voters also signed off on several tax increases, \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_30,_Sales_and_Income_Tax_Increase_(2012)\">Proposition 30 in 2012\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_55,_Extension_of_the_Proposition_30_Income_Tax_Increase_(2016)\">Proposition 55 in 2016\u003c/a>. But, Palmer notes, Brown has learned from the past, when one-time revenues were often committed to ongoing spending, only to be cut when a recession hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The governor doesn't want to make the mistake again,\" Palmer said. \"And so he has been very insistent on making sure that one-time revenues are put aside for things like rainy days and reserves and spending that is not higher and ongoing in nature that would have to be cut back dramatically in the event of an economic downturn.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown's tendency toward fiscal restraint is appreciated by Assemblyman Jay Obernolte (R-Hesperia). He serves as vice chair of the Assembly Budget Committee and said Brown has done a good job of reining in the majority-Democrat Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"CzzAk3IxqNbPHFBfSMmyq1wjUU8muWlV\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He is usually one of the few adult voices in the room when it comes to fiscal restraint in spending,\" Obernolte said. \"Although state spending has grown more than I would have liked to have seen it grow in recent years, it is true that he has restrained that level of spending.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Obernolte says Brown's restraint doesn't extend to tax increases.

Jerry Brown says in his final State of the State speech Thursday at the state Capitol, there can be little disagreement that he is leaving his successor a much healthier California than the one he inherited from Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003cem>first\u003c/em> statewide address as governor that year, Brown didn't minimize the challenges ahead. He described the coming legislative session, which he predicted would be \"extraordinarily difficult and wrenching\" as the state grappled with a huge budget deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"California faces a crisis that is real and unprecedented,\" Brown told assembled legislators and guests, adding that \"kicking the can down the road by not owning an honest budget is simply out of the question.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documents.dgs.ca.gov/osp/GovernorsBudget/pdf/Governors_Budget_2011-2012.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first budget\u003c/a> he signed in June 2011 cut state spending by $15 billion, making changes that helped pave the way for California's economic recovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, the old investment advice \"buy low, sell high\" applies to politics as well.

The state's economy has been strong. According to the Department of Finance, non-farm jobs have increased by more than 18 percent during Brown's most recent time in office. Voters also signed off on several tax increases, \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_30,_Sales_and_Income_Tax_Increase_(2012)\">Proposition 30 in 2012\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_55,_Extension_of_the_Proposition_30_Income_Tax_Increase_(2016)\">Proposition 55 in 2016\u003c/a>. But, Palmer notes, Brown has learned from the past, when one-time revenues were often committed to ongoing spending, only to be cut when a recession hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The governor doesn't want to make the mistake again,\" Palmer said. \"And so he has been very insistent on making sure that one-time revenues are put aside for things like rainy days and reserves and spending that is not higher and ongoing in nature that would have to be cut back dramatically in the event of an economic downturn.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown's tendency toward fiscal restraint is appreciated by Assemblyman Jay Obernolte (R-Hesperia). He serves as vice chair of the Assembly Budget Committee and said Brown has done a good job of reining in the majority-Democrat Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He is usually one of the few adult voices in the room when it comes to fiscal restraint in spending,\" Obernolte said. \"Although state spending has grown more than I would have liked to have seen it grow in recent years, it is true that he has restrained that level of spending.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Obernolte says Brown's restraint doesn't extend to tax increases. He points to the governor's support for Proposition 30 and the recent hike in the gas tax, for which Brown campaigned hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you look at the fact that California has such a large budget surplus right now, it's evidence that taxes were raised too much,\" Obernolte said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Republican consultant Sean Walsh, who worked for Governors Pete Wilson and Arnold Schwarzenegger, says while the state coffers are in better shape, fundamental reforms to stabilize the budget long-term have not happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One percent of the state’s taxpayers pay nearly 50 percent of the state’s taxes,\" Walsh said. \"That is a very mobile class of individuals,\" suggesting the state's high tax rate could push wealthy residents to leave or stay away from California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, Brown's legacy -- a concept he resists -- will include a wide range of areas, including:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Criminal Justice\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Brown inherited a state prison system that was bulging at the seams and under court order to reduce the population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting with AB 109, commonly known as \"realignment,\" Brown started shifting responsibility for many non-serious, nonviolent criminals from the state to counties.

The recall campaign submitted 94,539 signatures, and 58,634 are needed to make it onto the ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recall leaders began seeking to oust Persky after he sentenced Brock Turner to six months in jail. A jury convicted Turner of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman behind a trash bin after an on-campus party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Persky cited Turner's previously spotless criminal record and adopted the recommendation of the county's probation office. Turner is also required to register as a sex offender for life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Persky's critics argue the sentence was too light.

Dance music started pumping after the gospel choir finished. The open bar was packed, and the smell of cigar smoke wafted across the outdoor patio. Assemblyman Travis Allen, a Republican candidate for governor, posed for selfies with party guests. Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher made the rounds with her adult daughter, chatting with colleagues and taking a quick spin on the dance floor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s fun, and that’s all it is to me,” said Gonzalez Fletcher, a San Diego Democrat who chairs the powerful Appropriations Committee. “The idea that something like that would ever affect how I vote on something is just atrocious and offensive. I can’t imagine it would influence anyone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also chatting with friends on the patio was lobbyist Pamela Lopez, who \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-matt-dababneh-harassment-20171204-story.html\">last month accused\u003c/a> Democratic Assemblyman Matt Dababneh of sexually assaulting her in a hotel bathroom.

Many wore black, a statement inspired by Hollywood actresses at this month’s Golden Globes to highlight efforts to stop sexual misconduct.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And party organizers decided to scrap the rapper they had planned to bring as the headline performer—Too Short, known for songs like “\u003ca href=\"https://play.google.com/music/preview/Trpkkhn35lxvufptuw35nyqgdki?lyrics=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=search&utm_campaign=lyrics&pcampaignid=kp-lyrics\">Blowjob Betty\u003c/a>”, “\u003ca href=\"https://play.google.com/music/preview/Tqfko75lz3yyydskmgayari5xl4?lyrics=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=search&utm_campaign=lyrics&pcampaignid=kp-lyrics\">I’m a Player\u003c/a>” and “\u003ca href=\"https://genius.com/Too-short-call-her-a-bitch-lyrics\">Call her a Bitch\u003c/a>”—after learning he was \u003ca href=\"https://www.bet.com/music/2017/03/03/too-short-is-reportedly-under-investigation-for-rape.html\">accused\u003c/a> last year of rape, an allegation he \u003ca href=\"https://www.bet.com/music/2017/03/04/too-short-issues-statement-denying-recent-rape-allegations.html\">denies\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the evening opened with a gospel choir singing “Oh Happy Day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Providing a memorable evening of free booze and entertainment is one way the groups try to wield influence—not only on the Capitol’s powerbrokers but on the junior staff who are frequently gatekeepers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David Quintana, the lobbyist who first organized the bash 13 years ago, said he originally conceived of it as a way to do something fun for young staff members. It has since grown to become one of the Capitol’s main social events of the year—timed to the beginning of the legislative session to foster professional camaraderie before the inevitable showdowns that come with politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Very soon the whole environment we’re involved in devolves into one of partisanship and fighting over bills,” said Quintana, a lobbyist whose clients have included Indian tribes and electronic cigarette companies. “Why not give people one opportunity to have fun?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11643834\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11643834\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-800x552.jpg\" alt=\"Lots of goodies are available at the annual Back to Session Bash in Sacramento.\" width=\"800\" height=\"552\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-800x552.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-160x110.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-1020x703.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-1180x814.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-960x662.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-240x166.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-375x259.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/BashSign-520x359.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lots of goodies are available at the annual Back to Session Bash in Sacramento. \u003ccite>(Laurel Rosenhall/CALmatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In past years, the party kicked off with welcoming remarks from the Legislature’s elected leaders. This year, legislative leaders were hundreds of miles away— Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon on a trade mission in Mexico, Senate leader Kevin de León attending meetings in his Los Angeles district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many legislators still attended—but most of them huddled in the private VIP room or mingled discreetly in public areas. None of them climbed on stage, as happened in 2014 when a handful of legislators \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=29&v=W0bzJ76O9-w\">danced with rapper\u003c/a> Coolio—a moment that devolved into a political nightmare when video of the partying lawmakers showed up in an election attack ad. Its target, Assemblywoman Sharon Quirk Silva, lost re-election that year, then won her seat back in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not that there was any shortage of revelry at this year’s bash. Dance music started pumping after the gospel choir finished. The open bar was packed, and the smell of cigar smoke wafted across the outdoor patio. Assemblyman Travis Allen, a Republican candidate for governor, posed for selfies with party guests. Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher made the rounds with her adult daughter, chatting with colleagues and taking a quick spin on the dance floor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s fun, and that’s all it is to me,” said Gonzalez Fletcher, a San Diego Democrat who chairs the powerful Appropriations Committee. “The idea that something like that would ever affect how I vote on something is just atrocious and offensive. I can’t imagine it would influence anyone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also chatting with friends on the patio was lobbyist Pamela Lopez, who \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-matt-dababneh-harassment-20171204-story.html\">last month accused\u003c/a> Democratic Assemblyman Matt Dababneh of sexually assaulting her in a hotel bathroom.

That's where the measure hit a snafu late Friday night, triggering the stalemate. The House later passed the 17-day extension by a 266-150 vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly before the Monday procedural vote was set to begin, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., announced that he would vote to reopen the government along with enough Democrats needed to advance the bill. After 24 hours of furious negotiation over plans to consider immigration legislation in the coming weeks, the Senate voted to move forward with the continuing resolution, which would fund the government through Feb. 8.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In exchange for his support, Schumer said, he has received assurances from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., that if an agreement isn't reached by then, the GOP leader will bring a vote to the floor on legislation to grant legal status to those protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, roughly 700,000 immigrants who are in the country illegally after being brought here as children. The bill also extends the expired Children's Health Insurance Program for six years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McConnell says Democrats caved because they realized holding out for a DACA deal tied to the funding deal was not wise politically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think if we've learned anything during this process it's that a strategy to shut down the government over the issue of illegal immigration is something that the American people didn't understand,\" McConnell said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schumer, however, argued that blame for the weekend-long stalemate lay at the president's feet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The reason the Republican majority had such difficulty finding consensus is they could never get a firm grip on what the president of their party wanted to do. These days, you never know who to deal with when it comes to the Republicans,\" Schumer said. \"The Republican leaders told me to work out a deal with the White House. The White House said, work it out with Republican leaders on the Hill. Separately, President Trump turned away from not one, but two, bipartisan compromises. Each would have avoided this shutdown.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement later Monday, Trump said that with the government on the path to reopening, the administration would work on immigration legislation — but \"only if it's good for our country.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am pleased that Democrats in Congress have come to their senses and are now willing to fund our great military, border patrol, first responders and insurance for vulnerable children,\" Trump said. \"As I've always said, once the government is funded, my administration will work towards solving the problem of very unfair illegal immigration. We will make a long-term deal on immigration if and only if it's good for our country.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders dodged questions at the daily briefing as to whether that would include a path to citizenship for DACA recipients, which many hard-line conservatives oppose. And she insisted that the president has been clear about what he wants in an immigration bill, despite shifting positions over the past week that even GOP leaders have complained about.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the measure moving forward, it will now be hard for Democrats to argue they extracted many concessions from GOP leaders. McConnell's promise is just that — a promise. \"Some of us struggle to trust him,\" Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/22/579645748/democrats-want-immigration-issues-solved-before-vote-on-budget\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told NPR's Morning Edition\u003c/a>, \"because of the famously vulgar way that President Trump sort of blew up the last time that Sens. [Lindsey] Graham and [Dick] Durbin offered him a bipartisan deal [on immigration].\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats were trying to frame the deal as a temporary victory, though. Senate Minority Whip Durbin took the floor to call the DACA issue the \"civil rights issue of our time\" and underscore the importance of passing an immigration bill by the new deadline, which he said McConnell had assured them would be on a level playing field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many Senate Democrats had remained entrenched in their opposition to any funding deal that didn't include a DACA fix, a growing number of moderate lawmakers were wary of an extended shutdown fight. Most of the endangered Democrats who are up for re-election in 2018 in states that Trump won all voted to advance the measure, except for Montana Sen. Jon Tester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., who faces a potentially competitive re-election this fall, sounded optimistic about the agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What you have is pretty much an ironclad commitment that if we don't resolve this -- and that's what we're going to try to do with the Graham bill -- resolve the DACA issue by Feb. 8, the commitment is you go to the floor with a neutral bill, like a shell, and you let the Senate process work,\" Nelson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Democrats had worried that the Republican talking point --that Democrats were siding with \"illegal immigrants\" over the military and government -- would resonate with voters as the stalemate extended into the workweek Monday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955426609326100480\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tweeted that argument\u003c/a> himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955426609326100480\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., who has argued for tougher immigration standards, also echoed that sentiment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Shutting down the government and depriving American citizens of services because you want amnesty for illegal immigrants is a massive political blunder,\" said Cotton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has generally kept a low profile during the shutdown. He canceled a planned trip to Florida, where he hoped to celebrate the first anniversary of his inauguration with a high-dollar fundraising party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aides say the president spent the weekend telephoning lawmakers and working with staff to minimize fallout from shuttered government operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders pushed back on allegations from Schumer and other Democrats that Trump was absent from negotiations over the weekend and never reached out to their side. \"What the president did clearly worked,\" Sanders countered. \"The vote just came in 81-18.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A group of about 20 senators met for several hours on Saturday and again on Sunday afternoon to hash out the plan that ultimately allowed both sides to back down from their increasingly entrenched positions and vote to reopen the government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representatives from those talks briefed leaders Sunday afternoon, but the suspense dragged out for nearly six hours before McConnell made his announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several of the senators in the bipartisan group said they worried a prolonged shutdown could become harder to fix and would cause greater damage to the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., who is one of several Democrats up for re-election in states where Trump won in 2016, joined the talks. \"One of the things we learned from the last shutdown was that as time goes on, positions harden,\" Heitkamp said. \"Resolution gets more difficult the longer we wait.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, more liberal senators -- including several potential 2020 hopefuls such as Cory Booker of New Jersey, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Kamala Harris of California and Bernie Sanders of Vermont -- all voted against the measure, standing firm over the DACA issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two conservative GOP senators, Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky, also voted no, though they have repeatedly opposed on principle any continuing resolutions as a way to keep the government funded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House still has to vote on the new legislation. Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., said Sunday on CBS' \u003cem>Face the Nation\u003c/em> that he would support a spending bill like the one being discussed in the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[McConnell] is going to bring up a bill keeping things funded to Feb. 8,\" Ryan said. \"We have agreed that we would accept that in the House.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One potential issue is that the deal to vote on immigration proposals applies only to the Senate. The House could choose to ignore whatever the Senate takes up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR White House correspondent Scott Horsley and NPR congressional correspondent Susan Davis contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

McConnell's promise is just that — a promise. \"Some of us struggle to trust him,\" Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/22/579645748/democrats-want-immigration-issues-solved-before-vote-on-budget\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told NPR's Morning Edition\u003c/a>, \"because of the famously vulgar way that President Trump sort of blew up the last time that Sens. [Lindsey] Graham and [Dick] Durbin offered him a bipartisan deal [on immigration].\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats were trying to frame the deal as a temporary victory, though. Senate Minority Whip Durbin took the floor to call the DACA issue the \"civil rights issue of our time\" and underscore the importance of passing an immigration bill by the new deadline, which he said McConnell had assured them would be on a level playing field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many Senate Democrats had remained entrenched in their opposition to any funding deal that didn't include a DACA fix, a growing number of moderate lawmakers were wary of an extended shutdown fight. Most of the endangered Democrats who are up for re-election in 2018 in states that Trump won all voted to advance the measure, except for Montana Sen. Jon Tester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., who faces a potentially competitive re-election this fall, sounded optimistic about the agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What you have is pretty much an ironclad commitment that if we don't resolve this -- and that's what we're going to try to do with the Graham bill -- resolve the DACA issue by Feb. 8, the commitment is you go to the floor with a neutral bill, like a shell, and you let the Senate process work,\" Nelson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Democrats had worried that the Republican talking point --that Democrats were siding with \"illegal immigrants\" over the military and government -- would resonate with voters as the stalemate extended into the workweek Monday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955426609326100480\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tweeted that argument\u003c/a> himself.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tom Cotton, R-Ark., who has argued for tougher immigration standards, also echoed that sentiment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Shutting down the government and depriving American citizens of services because you want amnesty for illegal immigrants is a massive political blunder,\" said Cotton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has generally kept a low profile during the shutdown. He canceled a planned trip to Florida, where he hoped to celebrate the first anniversary of his inauguration with a high-dollar fundraising party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aides say the president spent the weekend telephoning lawmakers and working with staff to minimize fallout from shuttered government operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders pushed back on allegations from Schumer and other Democrats that Trump was absent from negotiations over the weekend and never reached out to their side. \"What the president did clearly worked,\" Sanders countered. \"The vote just came in 81-18.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A group of about 20 senators met for several hours on Saturday and again on Sunday afternoon to hash out the plan that ultimately allowed both sides to back down from their increasingly entrenched positions and vote to reopen the government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representatives from those talks briefed leaders Sunday afternoon, but the suspense dragged out for nearly six hours before McConnell made his announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several of the senators in the bipartisan group said they worried a prolonged shutdown could become harder to fix and would cause greater damage to the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., who is one of several Democrats up for re-election in states where Trump won in 2016, joined the talks. \"One of the things we learned from the last shutdown was that as time goes on, positions harden,\" Heitkamp said. \"Resolution gets more difficult the longer we wait.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, more liberal senators -- including several potential 2020 hopefuls such as Cory Booker of New Jersey, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Kamala Harris of California and Bernie Sanders of Vermont -- all voted against the measure, standing firm over the DACA issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two conservative GOP senators, Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky, also voted no, though they have repeatedly opposed on principle any continuing resolutions as a way to keep the government funded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House still has to vote on the new legislation. Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., said Sunday on CBS' \u003cem>Face the Nation\u003c/em> that he would support a spending bill like the one being discussed in the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[McConnell] is going to bring up a bill keeping things funded to Feb. 8,\" Ryan said. \"We have agreed that we would accept that in the House.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One potential issue is that the deal to vote on immigration proposals applies only to the Senate. The House could choose to ignore whatever the Senate takes up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR White House correspondent Scott Horsley and NPR congressional correspondent Susan Davis contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
