"bio": "\u003ca href=\"http://www.MarkFiore.com\">MarkFiore.com\u003c/a> | \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/markfiore\">Follow on Twitter\u003c/a> | \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Mark-Fiore-Animated-Political-Cartoons/94451707396?ref=bookmarks\">Facebook\u003c/a> | \u003ca href=\"mailto:mark@markfiore.com\">email\u003c/a>\r\n\r\nPulitzer Prize-winner, Mark Fiore, who the Wall Street Journal has called “the undisputed guru of the form,” creates animated political cartoons in San Francisco, where his work has been featured regularly on the San Francisco Chronicle’s web site, SFGate.com. 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.",

Newsom’s trip to Scotland would have been his most significant international trip as governor so far, providing him a global platform to highlight his agenda while pushing world leaders to do the same.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Coming off after beating the recall, he’s got a buzz and of course he’s going to move on from governor to something else [someday]. It is a missed opportunity, so of course you have to think it’s something serious with his family,” said Shaun Bowler, a UC Riverside political science professor. “That’s what these events do, they give you good press at home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom is up for reelection in 2022 and is a heavy favorite to remain in office for a second term. Under California law, governors are limited to two terms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom had only recently decided to attend the conference, which starts Sunday, sending staff, media organizations and other lawmakers scrambling to prepare for the trip without much notice. His decision not to go was equally abrupt and more surprising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think we want to read something into it,” said state Senate Majority Leader Bob Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys, who is attending the conference. “My sense is the person who’s probably most disappointed that he’s not going is Gavin Newsom, because I don’t think I’ve ever walked into his office without him talking about climate change. He loves this issue, he cares about it a lot. It’s a big deal to him, and I’m sure he desperately wanted to go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hertzberg credited Newsom for putting his children first, while noting that the governor’s plan to attend virtually has become far more common since it became all but standard during the worst of the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nor will it be too costly politically, Hertzberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe he might miss some photo ops that might be happening,” he said. “The fact that he’s there or not there doesn’t impact California’s importance in this discussion on the one hand, and certainly doesn’t impact the political aspects in California, where he has to get reelected in the primary and the general [election].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At some point, as much as we want to be out there in politics, you’re a human being. You’ve got to take care of your family,” Hertzberg said. And he’s doing it, and I think that’s a good thing.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Newsom’s trip to Scotland would have been his most significant international trip as governor so far, providing him a global platform to highlight his agenda while pushing world leaders to do the same.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Coming off after beating the recall, he’s got a buzz and of course he’s going to move on from governor to something else [someday]. It is a missed opportunity, so of course you have to think it’s something serious with his family,” said Shaun Bowler, a UC Riverside political science professor. “That’s what these events do, they give you good press at home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom is up for reelection in 2022 and is a heavy favorite to remain in office for a second term. Under California law, governors are limited to two terms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom had only recently decided to attend the conference, which starts Sunday, sending staff, media organizations and other lawmakers scrambling to prepare for the trip without much notice. His decision not to go was equally abrupt and more surprising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think we want to read something into it,” said state Senate Majority Leader Bob Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys, who is attending the conference. “My sense is the person who’s probably most disappointed that he’s not going is Gavin Newsom, because I don’t think I’ve ever walked into his office without him talking about climate change. He loves this issue, he cares about it a lot. It’s a big deal to him, and I’m sure he desperately wanted to go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hertzberg credited Newsom for putting his children first, while noting that the governor’s plan to attend virtually has become far more common since it became all but standard during the worst of the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nor will it be too costly politically, Hertzberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe he might miss some photo ops that might be happening,” he said. “The fact that he’s there or not there doesn’t impact California’s importance in this discussion on the one hand, and certainly doesn’t impact the political aspects in California, where he has to get reelected in the primary and the general [election].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At some point, as much as we want to be out there in politics, you’re a human being. You’ve got to take care of your family,” Hertzberg said. And he’s doing it, and I think that’s a good thing.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Richard Pan of Sacramento, a Democrat and pediatrician who chairs the Senate Health Committee. “You don’t want schools having to close, and people having to be sent home and quarantined.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11890715/newsom-enacts-first-in-nation-statewide-student-vaccine-mandate\">vaccine mandate announced last week\u003c/a> will take effect as soon as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration fully approves the vaccine for younger age groups. The Newsom administration expects the first vaccine deadline for grades 7-12 to be July 1, 2022, or possibly earlier. The COVID-19 vaccine has so far \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-approves-first-covid-19-vaccine\">only been fully approved by the FDA for those 16 and over\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mandate, however, allows for personal belief exemptions. This means students and staff could opt out of the COVID-19 vaccine for religious or ideological reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The process for personal belief exemptions for vaccinations varies across the country for students and employees, according to Dorit Reiss, a UC Hastings law professor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some just ask to check a box on a form,” she said. “Others have a different process like submitting a letter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan has long worked to strengthen vaccine rules for students. In 2012, he authored \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201120120AB2109\">a law that required parents seeking a personal belief exemption to consult with a medical expert\u003c/a> about the benefits and risks of vaccinations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2015, he co-authored \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160SB277\">a law that eliminated the personal belief exemption\u003c/a> for childhood immunizations altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"vaccine-mandates\"]Pan then successfully \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB276\">tightened regulations on medical exemptions\u003c/a> in 2019 with a bill that required the California Department of Public Health to audit all medical exemptions at schools with immunization rates less than 95%, as well as any doctor who submits more than five medical exemptions per calendar year. \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/inside-california-capitol/2019/09/california-legislature-protest-menstrual-blood-ani-vaccine/\">Anti-vaccine protesters opposed the bill.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friday’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate revived the issue of the personal belief exemption because the 2015 law requires any immunization requirements issued by the state health department without a vote from the Legislature to include the provision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At the time, we were more concerned about routine vaccinations. We were thinking, why have a fight that doesn’t really matter?” Pan said. “The laws that we wrote for school mandates were not written with pandemics in mind. That’s why that provision is in there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan says he’ll consider authoring legislation that would eliminate the exemption if COVID-19 cases spike across the state or if districts report a high number of students and staff who abuse this provision to avoid the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A possible bill, Pan said, would require the COVID vaccine to be treated like the 10 required inoculations that don’t allow for a personal belief exemption.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The problem with the personal belief exemption is that if there are too many people who use it, we’ll have schools that are unsafe,” he said. “We need to be sure kids can stay in school and learn and not have to be sent home for two weeks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics released a statement in support of the mandate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The eradication of smallpox and polio, as well as prevention of meningitis, measles and whooping cough, show that vaccines work,” said chapter Chair Yasuko Fukuda. “New vaccines are developed and evaluated by a long-standing rigorous process to ensure effectiveness and safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Catherine Martin, executive director of the California Immunization Coalition, a public-health advocacy group, said she understands the concerns of the parents who are hesitant about the COVID-19 vaccine, but agrees that the personal belief exemption should be eliminated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The No. 1 reason to eliminate the personal belief exemption is to be consistent,” Martin said. “This vaccine is no riskier than any other vaccine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martin said her organization will spend the coming months supporting pediatricians and school administrators as they explain the benefits and risks of the COVID-19 vaccine to students and their families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Parents are suffering because they really are scared,” she said. “Doctors are really going to need to up their game in terms of taking time and answering their questions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Martin has less sympathy for teachers and school staff who refuse to get vaccinated for political reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they’re not believing in the science or if it’s a political belief, perhaps they need to find other work,” she said. “Perhaps this is going to weed out folks who don’t believe in the science.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Teachers Association President E. Toby Boyd released a statement last week supporting the vaccine mandate for students, saying the vast majority of teachers have already been fully vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While recognizing the need for medical and religious exemptions, we believe vaccinations are key for both student and educator safety, keeping our schools open for in-person instruction and for combating this pandemic,” Boyd said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CTA Spokesperson Lisa Gardiner declined to comment on whether the union would support the elimination of the personal belief exemption if legislators were to propose a bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McFadden, from the Nevada Joint Union High School District, expects that most of his employees, even those opposing the mandate, will eventually get their vaccines so they can keep their jobs. He said when \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/2021/08/california-teacher-vaccines-mandate-newsom/\">the governor issued a previous mandate requiring teachers to be vaccinated\u003c/a> or undergo regular testing, many teachers complained, but most came around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They said, ‘I don’t want to do this,’ but then they realized they have to pay the rent,” he said. “I might have five or 10 that don’t get vaccinated, and they’ll leave.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"entry-content\">\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was originally published by \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2021/10/student-covid-vaccination-loophole/\">CalMatters\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\n",

The Newsom administration expects the first vaccine deadline for grades 7-12 to be July 1, 2022, or possibly earlier. The COVID-19 vaccine has so far \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-approves-first-covid-19-vaccine\">only been fully approved by the FDA for those 16 and over\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mandate, however, allows for personal belief exemptions. This means students and staff could opt out of the COVID-19 vaccine for religious or ideological reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The process for personal belief exemptions for vaccinations varies across the country for students and employees, according to Dorit Reiss, a UC Hastings law professor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some just ask to check a box on a form,” she said. “Others have a different process like submitting a letter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan has long worked to strengthen vaccine rules for students.

We were thinking, why have a fight that doesn’t really matter?” Pan said. “The laws that we wrote for school mandates were not written with pandemics in mind. That’s why that provision is in there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan says he’ll consider authoring legislation that would eliminate the exemption if COVID-19 cases spike across the state or if districts report a high number of students and staff who abuse this provision to avoid the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A possible bill, Pan said, would require the COVID vaccine to be treated like the 10 required inoculations that don’t allow for a personal belief exemption.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The problem with the personal belief exemption is that if there are too many people who use it, we’ll have schools that are unsafe,” he said. “We need to be sure kids can stay in school and learn and not have to be sent home for two weeks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics released a statement in support of the mandate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The eradication of smallpox and polio, as well as prevention of meningitis, measles and whooping cough, show that vaccines work,” said chapter Chair Yasuko Fukuda. “New vaccines are developed and evaluated by a long-standing rigorous process to ensure effectiveness and safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Catherine Martin, executive director of the California Immunization Coalition, a public-health advocacy group, said she understands the concerns of the parents who are hesitant about the COVID-19 vaccine, but agrees that the personal belief exemption should be eliminated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The No. 1 reason to eliminate the personal belief exemption is to be consistent,” Martin said. “This vaccine is no riskier than any other vaccine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martin said her organization will spend the coming months supporting pediatricians and school administrators as they explain the benefits and risks of the COVID-19 vaccine to students and their families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Parents are suffering because they really are scared,” she said. “Doctors are really going to need to up their game in terms of taking time and answering their questions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Martin has less sympathy for teachers and school staff who refuse to get vaccinated for political reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they’re not believing in the science or if it’s a political belief, perhaps they need to find other work,” she said. “Perhaps this is going to weed out folks who don’t believe in the science.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Teachers Association President E. Toby Boyd released a statement last week supporting the vaccine mandate for students, saying the vast majority of teachers have already been fully vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While recognizing the need for medical and religious exemptions, we believe vaccinations are key for both student and educator safety, keeping our schools open for in-person instruction and for combating this pandemic,” Boyd said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CTA Spokesperson Lisa Gardiner declined to comment on whether the union would support the elimination of the personal belief exemption if legislators were to propose a bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McFadden, from the Nevada Joint Union High School District, expects that most of his employees, even those opposing the mandate, will eventually get their vaccines so they can keep their jobs. He said when \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/2021/08/california-teacher-vaccines-mandate-newsom/\">the governor issued a previous mandate requiring teachers to be vaccinated\u003c/a> or undergo regular testing, many teachers complained, but most came around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
