Unfortunately, horrifically, unethically, immorally and illegally — wrongly, if you will — some people are starting to respond in violent ways.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

As proposed, the rule would pertain specifically to adults ages 19 to 64 who qualify for Medicaid as part of an expansion under the Affordable Care Act. Pregnant women, parents and caregivers of young children, and people with mental and physical disabilities would be exempt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. David Valadao, a California Republican who represents portions of the San Joaquin Valley that have some of the highest Medicaid enrollment, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBNAOogpqGs\">told ABC’s Bakersfield affiliate\u003c/a> that work requirements are a fair ask.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For those who are able-bodied with no dependents and you choose not to try to make that effort to go get a job, go to school or volunteer, do something in your community, yeah you’re probably going to be affected by this, but the average person who is working really hard to provide for their family thinks that’s the right thing to do,” Valadao said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rep. Laura Friedman, a California Democrat representing Los Angeles, said it is the responsibility of the government to help people stay safe and healthy, but work requirements would do the opposite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They want to make it so hard for you and your family to access care with these onerous work requirements that you say ‘I’m not even going to bother, I’ll just try not to get sick,’” Friedman said during a press conference this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friedman said the proposed cuts and requirements in the House bill would lead to more uncompensated care costs for clinics and hospitals, which ultimately could lead to reduced services for entire communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://calmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/052825_WorkRequirements_JC_CM_02-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Two people sit across from each other at a white table in a brightly lit community center.

States would have the option to start earlier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to the work rules, the House budget bill proposes several other changes, including requiring these enrollees to verify their income every six months, rather than once a year. A separate measure seeks to financially penalize states that offer non-emergency Medicaid coverage to undocumented people, even if it’s with state-only funds, as California does. And less federal funding may force states to reduce benefits or enrollment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The federal proposals are on top of changes that Gov. Gavin Newsom is already eyeing that could also force people to lose their health insurance. In his most recent budget proposal, Newsom proposed \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2025/05/newsom-freeze-medi-cal-undocumented-immigrants/\">benefit reductions, a premium charge and enrollment freezes\u003c/a> for undocumented residents as the state deals with a projected $12 billion shortfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of the proposals at the federal and state level are bound to result in confusion and disruption for patients, Alfaro said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Last year we were doing a bunch of promotion around how easier it is to get health insurance,” she said. “And it seems like now we’re going a step backwards.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Arkansas and New Hampshire experience\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Currently about 5 million Californians with Medi-Cal are eligible because of the Affordable Care Act’s Medicaid expansion. The 2010 health law allowed states to add adults without children or a disability to their rolls. It’s this group of enrollees that would be subject to the work requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Urban Institute’s estimate of more than a million of them losing coverage in 2026 is based on multiple factors, including trends and experiences observed in Arkansas and New Hampshire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2018, Arkansas became the first state to implement work rules as a condition for Medicaid coverage. The rule applied to adults ages 30 to 49 who had to show 80 hours of work a month. Within six months, 18,000 adults had lost their coverage. In 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/27/707425729/federal-judge-strikes-down-medicaid-work-requirements-in-arkansas-and-kentucky\">a federal judge struck down\u003c/a> the state’s work requirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers in New Hampshire said they’d do a better job than Arkansas in rolling out their own 2019 work requirement, but they faced similar challenges. The state had \u003ca href=\"https://www.unionleader.com/news/health/spreading-the-word-on-medicaid-work-requirement-proves-challenging/article_740b99e7-9f48-52d4-b2d8-030167e66af8.html\">a difficult time reaching enrollees\u003c/a> and notifying them about the changes, news reports at the time show. On track to lose thousands of people more than anticipated, the state suspended its rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Based on the experience of other states, even if you spend a ton of energy on outreach, a lot of people just don’t realize what they have to do,” said Nari Rhee, director of the Retirement Security Program at the UC Berkeley Labor Center. “People have a bunch of questions: ‘Am I exempt? What do I have to do?’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even in New Hampshire, where they thought they were being gentle about the rollout, people had a hard time getting through (phone lines) to ask questions,” Rhee said. “So you can expect a pretty large percentage of people who could meet the requirements just fine, basically falling through the cracks and losing coverage because they just didn’t know or couldn’t get the information they needed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2025/05/medicaid-work-requirement-california-congress/\">originally published on CalMatters\u003c/a> and was republished under the \u003ca href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/\">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives\u003c/a> license.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

In his most recent budget proposal, Newsom proposed \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2025/05/newsom-freeze-medi-cal-undocumented-immigrants/\">benefit reductions, a premium charge and enrollment freezes\u003c/a> for undocumented residents as the state deals with a projected $12 billion shortfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of the proposals at the federal and state level are bound to result in confusion and disruption for patients, Alfaro said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Last year we were doing a bunch of promotion around how easier it is to get health insurance,” she said. “And it seems like now we’re going a step backwards.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Arkansas and New Hampshire experience\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Currently about 5 million Californians with Medi-Cal are eligible because of the Affordable Care Act’s Medicaid expansion. The 2010 health law allowed states to add adults without children or a disability to their rolls. It’s this group of enrollees that would be subject to the work requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Urban Institute’s estimate of more than a million of them losing coverage in 2026 is based on multiple factors, including trends and experiences observed in Arkansas and New Hampshire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2018, Arkansas became the first state to implement work rules as a condition for Medicaid coverage. The rule applied to adults ages 30 to 49 who had to show 80 hours of work a month. Within six months, 18,000 adults had lost their coverage. In 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/27/707425729/federal-judge-strikes-down-medicaid-work-requirements-in-arkansas-and-kentucky\">a federal judge struck down\u003c/a> the state’s work requirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers in New Hampshire said they’d do a better job than Arkansas in rolling out their own 2019 work requirement, but they faced similar challenges. The state had \u003ca href=\"https://www.unionleader.com/news/health/spreading-the-word-on-medicaid-work-requirement-proves-challenging/article_740b99e7-9f48-52d4-b2d8-030167e66af8.html\">a difficult time reaching enrollees\u003c/a> and notifying them about the changes, news reports at the time show. On track to lose thousands of people more than anticipated, the state suspended its rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Based on the experience of other states, even if you spend a ton of energy on outreach, a lot of people just don’t realize what they have to do,” said Nari Rhee, director of the Retirement Security Program at the UC Berkeley Labor Center. “People have a bunch of questions: ‘Am I exempt? What do I have to do?’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even in New Hampshire, where they thought they were being gentle about the rollout, people had a hard time getting through (phone lines) to ask questions,” Rhee said. “So you can expect a pretty large percentage of people who could meet the requirements just fine, basically falling through the cracks and losing coverage because they just didn’t know or couldn’t get the information they needed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2025/05/medicaid-work-requirement-california-congress/\">originally published on CalMatters\u003c/a> and was republished under the \u003ca href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/\">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives\u003c/a> license.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The era of soaring city budgets and deteriorating street conditions is over.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the jobs on the chopping block are currently vacant, according to the mayor’s office. Only about 100 positions are currently filled, and those include positions where employees are slated for retirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not exactly clear which positions will be eliminated, but officials said vacant job cuts are spread across 40 departments, while filled positions to be cut will affect 17 departments\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most grant-making departments will face some level of reduction over the next two years, mayor’s office officials said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unions have already fired back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Layoffs are totally unnecessary. We can find the funds to save jobs and uphold San Francisco values,” Rudy Gonzalez, secretary-treasurer of the San Francisco Building & Construction Trades Council, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12020020\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12020020\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2300/12/GettyImages-2174968250-e1736293413905.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco City Hall in November 2024. \u003ccite>(James Carter-Johnson/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Organized labor representatives pointed to ongoing lawsuits from major tech companies like Google and Airbnb, claiming they were forced to overpay taxes, collectively seeking about $415 million back from the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is the budget that Airbnb wants. None of these job cuts should be on the table, but the mayor has decided that tax breaks for Airbnb are more important than public services,” Sarah Perez, a city employee and San Francisco vice president for the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers Local 21, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perez added that “cutting public jobs often means handing over important work to for-profit companies, increasing costs and inviting corruption.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many departments will see their overall budgets shrink, the mayor’s office will see an increase. Officials said that’s due to previously negotiated wage hikes, not new positions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are deeply disappointed that the mayor has chosen to cut crucial public services that San Francisco residents and small businesses rely on, rather than working with city workers on the pathway forward that we laid out five months ago,” SEIU 1021 President Theresa Rutherford said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie, a moderate Democrat, acknowledged that there would be tough budget decisions ahead in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12020613/daniel-lurie-hope-for-san-francisco-first-day-celebration\">his inaugural address\u003c/a> in January.

The Police Department, Fire Department and Sheriff’s Department will also not face dramatic cuts, along with 911 dispatchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie’s proposal also sets aside $400 million in reserves to prepare for potential federal funding clawbacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the event that when we face federal cuts, particularly Medicaid, which we were anticipating, we can use that money to offset some of these cuts so that people can continue to have care,” Chan said. “This is really critical.

He is a service foreman in the Oakland Sprinkler Fitters and teaches those apprenticeship classes he had once hoped to take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had no experience, I didn’t even really know how to use a measuring tape,” he remembers. “Being able to go to the job resource center, me being able to get into the Laborers’ Local, they actually gave me the foundation to which I built everything else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>An opportunity in East Oakland\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The successes and lessons of the Army base redevelopment deals offer insight into how a long-anticipated community benefit agreement tied to the Coliseum sale could yield similar results, said Kate O’Hara, the executive director of the East Bay Alliance for a Sustainable Economy (EBASE).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the biggest opportunities we have in Oakland and Alameda County to expand on what we’ve done at the Army base is the Coliseum project,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both the city of Oakland and the Oakland A’s, the Coliseum’s joint owners, reached deals last year to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12036060/oakland-pushes-coliseum-sale-next-year-delaying-funds-again\">sell to the African American Sports and Entertainment Group\u003c/a>, a local and Black-owned development group that hopes to revitalize the hole left in East Oakland by the departures of all three of the city’s major sports teams — the Warriors, Raiders and now the A’s — since 2019.[aside postID=news_12021914 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/241010-RiseEastDeepDown-33-BL-1536x1024.jpg']The pro sports exodus has cut local jobs and hurt business at nearby commercial stores, compounding \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12021914/rise-east-unlocks-100-million-to-reimagine-east-oakland\">decades of disinvestment in the neighborhood\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Included in AASEG’s sale agreement with Oakland is a provision that it create a community benefit agreement with local stakeholders, many of whom helped secure the Army base deals, including EBASE and other community groups.

For the formerly city-owned property, that meant workers who lived in low-income parts of Oakland, and for the port-owned half, it included single parents, long-term unemployed people, recently incarcerated or emancipated people, and those on welfare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report found that on the city’s side of construction, Oakland residents accounted for 45% of infrastructure construction work done, including nearly 20% by apprentices.[aside postID=news_12033094 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/03/20250327_As-Vendor-Fund_DMB_00007-1020x680.jpg'] The port’s side was even more dominated by local workers: Nearly 66% of work hours were performed by Oaklanders, and more than 23% by apprentices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both jurisdictions exceeded their targets for hiring local apprentices from marginalized communities, and in total, individual contractors who didn’t meet the local hiring targets paid more than a quarter-million dollars in damages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The best benefit is that it provided a lot of really good jobs for the community of Oakland,” said Andrew Jaeger, the UC Berkeley Labor Center study’s author. “It brought in hundreds of new local apprentices who probably would not have become apprentices under other conditions, if it wasn’t for this agreement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those job openings are what led Whittington to complete his parole in Oakland rather than San Francisco or Contra Costa County, where he grew up. He said other jurisdictions also didn’t have resources like those he could access at the West Oakland Job Resource Center, which was created by the Army base deal. That included skill-building classes and growth opportunities in addition to stable work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of these things gave me a step to get to where I am today,” Whittington said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Bringing the community to the table\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The uses for the Coliseum land are more flexible, O’Hara said, and negotiations could secure benefits beyond jobs — like community spaces and neighborhood services that East Oaklanders need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AASEG managing partner Ray Bobbitt and fellow member Shonda Scott told KQED in September that the entertainment group had over the last few years sought input from over 50 community organizations as well as relatives, residents and young people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oftentimes those young people’s voices aren’t part of the discussion,” Scott said at the time. “And that’s really what this project is for. It’s not for us to sit under the shade of the tree. This is for us to put these trees up and then have shade for the next generation.

And if we want to win, we need to make our tent bigger and not smaller,” said DCCC member Emma Hare, who authored the resolution. “A lot of boys and men don’t feel heard by the Democratic Party right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than half of young men between the ages of 18–29 voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election — making a nearly 32% leap from 2020, according to an \u003ca href=\"https://www.americansurveycenter.org/newsletter/2024-election-edition-young-men-swing-toward-trump/\">Associated Press poll\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even in deep-blue San Francisco, Trump gained ground between his first and second terms across the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resolution calls on Democrats to draw men back to the party by expanding access to services such as universal paid parental leave and behavioral health resources for men, and recruiting more male teachers and child care providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also notes that men experience higher rates of addiction and suicide, incarceration and barriers to paid paternal leave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s been a lot of conversation about what are the issues you need for young men. And one, I think, is opportunity,” said Jim Ross, a political consultant. “Opportunity in terms of economics, opportunity in terms of access to education, opportunity for employment. All of those things are really important and really, I think crucial to the success, in particular, of young men.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jason Fong, a freshman at UC Berkeley who grew up in San Francisco, said he doesn’t hear Democrats talking about the issues his male friends are experiencing in their everyday lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many of my floormates and guys that I’ve talked to at Berkeley have been struggling with social isolation. They face heavy stress with school and work, and I think they all lack clear guidance,” said Fong, 19, who gave input on the resolution. “A core value of the Democratic Party, to me, means making sure that no one is left behind, and that includes young men who are struggling and often in silence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12039390 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/05/IMG_1018-1020x765.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the idea has also drawn skepticism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rather than addressing these policies in a substantive way, they’re fighting what they perceive to be the problem of performative politics with more performative policies,” said Eric Jaye, a political consultant. “And if it wasn’t so sad, it would be laughable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Men still make up the majority of the highest elected positions in the country. Women, particularly women of color, earn less than men on average. Across the country, abortion rights have been rolled back, diversity efforts slashed in both public and private sectors and rights for transgender people and LGBTQ groups face constant threat from President Trump’s agenda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resolution does not acknowledge how Black and Latino men disproportionately experience the struggles all men face around mental health, college readiness and income disparity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, Black men earn about 30% less in a given year compared with white men, according to the American Institute for Boys and Men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t have that big of an issue with [the resolution], but from the Party perspective, I believe there’s a better way to support young men than describing symptoms of disaffection. It feels like [it’s] pathologizing young men,” progressive DCCC member John Avalos, who abstained from the vote, shared in a text message. “For me, it’s better to address the root causes of disaffection and disenchantment — that our society fails to empower young men and provide emotional and vocational sustenance that can lead to self-actualization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats at the national level are also exploring ways to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/us/politics/democratic-party-voters.html\">reach more young male voters\u003c/a>. Some strategists are seeking to raise $20 million towards one effort that aims to boost online popularity for the party through advertisements in video games, from influencers and other digital channels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s completely off base. It hasn’t worked and it won’t work,” Jaye said. “It boils down to this trope, that Kamala Harris should have gone on ‘Joe Rogan.’ It doesn’t matter if you’re on ‘Joe Rogan’ or not. It matters what you say on ‘Joe Rogan.’ So, what would she have said?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such an approach could also be difficult in a social media environment run largely by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12023367/what-big-tech-sees-in-donald-trump\">Trump-aligned tech billionaires\u003c/a> like Elon Musk, who owns X (formerly Twitter), and Mark Zuckerberg, who owns Instagram and Facebook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know if it’s just advertising that’s going to get it done. I think that you really need to put out some strong proposals and strong ideas that are going to really attract folks and get them excited about the party again,” Ross said. “Just saying that we need to do more for young men is not going to attract men to the party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his own effort to hold more open conversations between Republicans and Democrats, Gov. Gavin Newsom, once the mayor of San Francisco, recently started bringing on\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12030376/newsom-splits-with-democrats-on-trans-athletes-in-sports\"> guests to his podcast like Charlie Kirk\u003c/a>, a right-wing political activist popular among conservative young men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom received blowback from some saying he’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12033818/lgbtq-activists-rally-at-newsoms-home-demand-stronger-trans-rights-commitment\">straying from party values\u003c/a> by finding common ground with conservatives opposing transgender rights like playing sports, and others calling the move plain cringy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, supporters of the resolution said that singling out certain identity groups has left some male voters wondering where they fit within the Democratic Party, sending them toward Trump or away from the polls entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ernesto Cuellar, 26, gave input alongside Fong and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the lack of alternatives that we are giving men, right? We are really trying to show that there is masculinity in kindness, there is masculinity in caring for others,” said Cuellar, president of San Francisco Young Democrats. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be aggressive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters, which include progressive DCCC member and Working Families Party leader Jane Kim, also said Democrats shifting away from alienating discourse should not come at the expense of efforts to support traditionally marginalized groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The policy recommendations in the resolution are in line with the values of our Democratic Party and the values in San Francisco,” Hare said. “The Democratic Party needs to wake up and look in the mirror about what really, really went wrong in November.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

And one, I think, is opportunity,” said Jim Ross, a political consultant. “Opportunity in terms of economics, opportunity in terms of access to education, opportunity for employment. All of those things are really important and really, I think crucial to the success, in particular, of young men.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jason Fong, a freshman at UC Berkeley who grew up in San Francisco, said he doesn’t hear Democrats talking about the issues his male friends are experiencing in their everyday lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many of my floormates and guys that I’ve talked to at Berkeley have been struggling with social isolation. They face heavy stress with school and work, and I think they all lack clear guidance,” said Fong, 19, who gave input on the resolution. “A core value of the Democratic Party, to me, means making sure that no one is left behind, and that includes young men who are struggling and often in silence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Women, particularly women of color, earn less than men on average. Across the country, abortion rights have been rolled back, diversity efforts slashed in both public and private sectors and rights for transgender people and LGBTQ groups face constant threat from President Trump’s agenda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resolution does not acknowledge how Black and Latino men disproportionately experience the struggles all men face around mental health, college readiness and income disparity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, Black men earn about 30% less in a given year compared with white men, according to the American Institute for Boys and Men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t have that big of an issue with [the resolution], but from the Party perspective, I believe there’s a better way to support young men than describing symptoms of disaffection. It feels like [it’s] pathologizing young men,” progressive DCCC member John Avalos, who abstained from the vote, shared in a text message. “For me, it’s better to address the root causes of disaffection and disenchantment — that our society fails to empower young men and provide emotional and vocational sustenance that can lead to self-actualization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats at the national level are also exploring ways to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/us/politics/democratic-party-voters.html\">reach more young male voters\u003c/a>. Some strategists are seeking to raise $20 million towards one effort that aims to boost online popularity for the party through advertisements in video games, from influencers and other digital channels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s completely off base. It hasn’t worked and it won’t work,” Jaye said. “It boils down to this trope, that Kamala Harris should have gone on ‘Joe Rogan.’ It doesn’t matter if you’re on ‘Joe Rogan’ or not. It matters what you say on ‘Joe Rogan.’ So, what would she have said?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such an approach could also be difficult in a social media environment run largely by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12023367/what-big-tech-sees-in-donald-trump\">Trump-aligned tech billionaires\u003c/a> like Elon Musk, who owns X (formerly Twitter), and Mark Zuckerberg, who owns Instagram and Facebook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know if it’s just advertising that’s going to get it done. I think that you really need to put out some strong proposals and strong ideas that are going to really attract folks and get them excited about the party again,” Ross said. “Just saying that we need to do more for young men is not going to attract men to the party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his own effort to hold more open conversations between Republicans and Democrats, Gov. Gavin Newsom, once the mayor of San Francisco, recently started bringing on\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12030376/newsom-splits-with-democrats-on-trans-athletes-in-sports\"> guests to his podcast like Charlie Kirk\u003c/a>, a right-wing political activist popular among conservative young men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom received blowback from some saying he’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12033818/lgbtq-activists-rally-at-newsoms-home-demand-stronger-trans-rights-commitment\">straying from party values\u003c/a> by finding common ground with conservatives opposing transgender rights like playing sports, and others calling the move plain cringy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, supporters of the resolution said that singling out certain identity groups has left some male voters wondering where they fit within the Democratic Party, sending them toward Trump or away from the polls entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ernesto Cuellar, 26, gave input alongside Fong and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the lack of alternatives that we are giving men, right? We are really trying to show that there is masculinity in kindness, there is masculinity in caring for others,” said Cuellar, president of San Francisco Young Democrats. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be aggressive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters, which include progressive DCCC member and Working Families Party leader Jane Kim, also said Democrats shifting away from alienating discourse should not come at the expense of efforts to support traditionally marginalized groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The policy recommendations in the resolution are in line with the values of our Democratic Party and the values in San Francisco,” Hare said. “The Democratic Party needs to wake up and look in the mirror about what really, really went wrong in November.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The governor said the spending plan is allowable under the ballot measure, while doctors, hospitals, clinics and others who support the measure are crying foul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rising costs are making Medi-Cal, the state’s health insurance for low-income people, unsustainable, triggering a controversy over use of funds that voters earmarked for specific health costs, such as doctor’s pay and women’s reproductive health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to reallocating the Prop. 35 funds, the governor wants to move $500 million in supplemental payments that are added to the state tobacco tax into the state’s general fund instead. That money, which voters approved in a 2016 ballot measure, is supposed to support family planning and women’s health care, among other services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Health advocates say the governor’s proposals for shifting the money will weaken the state’s health safety net and hamstring reproductive health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Planned Parenthood said the double hit from Newsom’s Prop. 35 and tobacco tax proposals in the state budget could cripple its services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jodi Hicks, chief executive of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California and co-chair of the Yes on Prop. 35 campaign, called Newsom’s proposal “shocking” and “plain cruel.” She said Planned Parenthood would lose a third of its budget if it is approved by the Legislature next month. Lower-income patients would have to contend with longer wait times, fewer appointment options and potentially need to drive further to access care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our footprint is so large in sexual and reproductive health care in California.

Included is cutting off all federal funding for Planned Parenthood.

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
