It’s for students in a career technical education program, and it travels to high school campuses across the Central Valley that offer criminal justice courses. It will stay at Matilda Torres for two weeks, then it moves on to schools in Clovis, Caruthers, Mendota, and other towns in Fresno and Madera counties – and it will return next year to make the same rounds once again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though the calls are simulated and powered by artificial intelligence, Matilda Torres High School senior Jacqueline Gutierrez said they felt real the moment she put on her headset. “It did feel really real, like in the adrenaline, your hands are shaking,” Gutierrez said. “You could hear gunshots going off in the background, it gets your nerves up. But you have to remind yourself to calm down, because you have to be calm in that situation, because you’re the one helping the person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The goal is simple: give students real-world training early, and prepare them for careers in public safety. Once students complete 20 hours in the trailer, they also earn college credits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reyna Martinez is a dispatch supervisor with the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office. She helps run the simulations, and she says the intensity of the training is intentional. “We can choose the voice, how the voice sounds like, if they’re panicked, if they’re polite, if they’re whispering, if they’re yelling,” Martinez said. “We can also create background noises, things like that, to make it as realistic as possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students answer the phone, ask questions, and gather all the critical details – just like in a real emergency. “I try to base it on actual calls that we have, the type of scenario,” Martinez said. “Other things will obviously be changed for them and then made so that it is appropriate for high school students.” When the call ends, an AI tool scores their performance based on how well they handled the emergency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of training is becoming increasingly important. Across the country, dispatch centers are struggling to find workers. In 2022, a study by the federal government estimated that nearly a third of emergency centers reported high vacancy rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/03/bonta-chad-bianco-ballots/\">\u003cstrong>Court denies California’s bid to halt Riverside sheriff’s recount of 2025 election ballots\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A California court on Tuesday quickly denied Attorney General Rob Bonta’s request to halt the Riverside County Sheriff Department’s effort to recount ballots from the November 2025 special election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an unprecedented move, Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, a Republican who is \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/california-governor-2026-election/\">running for governor\u003c/a>, seized roughly 650,000 ballots and began conducting a recount of votes. At a press conference Friday, he characterized the investigation as a “fact-finding mission” that is intended “just as much to prove the election is accurate as it is to show otherwise.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta’s office this month ordered Bianco and the Riverside County Sheriff Department to pause its work, citing “grave concerns” over the legality of the criminal investigation. The state Justice Department instructed the sheriff’s department to share any information that could substantiate its concerns in order to understand the basis for the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those orders went unheeded, according to court filings. Bonta’s lawsuit in the 4th District Court of Appeal, filed Monday, asked that the court intervene in order “to prevent further abuse of the criminal process.” But a three-judge panel struck down Bonta’s request, writing that he should have filed his complaint with the Riverside County court. Bonta’s office said they were “evaluating next steps to ensure a swift and appropriate resolution to this matter.” “The Sheriff has not identified any particular crime that may have been committed by anyone — a necessary predicate to obtain a criminal search warrant,” said the attorney general’s office in an earlier statement to CalMatters. “The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office is not equipped nor legally authorized to play the role of elections monitor. By all appearances, this investigation is little more than a fishing expedition meant to sow distrust and undermine public confidence in our elections.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta has taken particular issue with the sworn statements that Bianco has made to a Riverside County judge to obtain warrants allowing him to seize the ballots. The sheriff got two warrants in February and another last week after receiving a complaint about ballot discrepancies from a Riverside County citizens’ group. Bonta has said the sheriff’s department statements his office reviewed did not establish enough probable cause to justify seizing election materials. The citizens’ group claimed Riverside County elections officials overstated the number of ballots counted in the November special election over Democrat-drawn congressional maps. Registrar of Voters Art Tinoco has denied the group’s claims and told county supervisors last month the group was using incomplete data that did not include confidential, provisional and other ballots his office received.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/california-candidates-usc-debate/\">\u003cstrong>CA Democratic governor hopefuls not bowing out\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Ten weeks before the primary election, California Democrats still haven’t narrowed down the field of candidates enough to reduce the chances of splitting the vote so much that two Republicans make it to the ballot in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what \u003ca href=\"https://cadem.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/CA-Voter-Index-Baseline-Survey-03.23.26.pdf\">polling released by the Democratic Party\u003c/a> on Tuesday showed, with the two GOP candidates — Riverside County Sheriff \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/03/bonta-chad-bianco-ballots/\">Chad Bianco\u003c/a> and former Fox News host Steve Hilton — tied for the lead, and Democrats Rep. Eric Swalwell, billionaire Tom Steyer and former Rep. Katie Porter roughly tied behind them. The results mirrored other recent polls in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the first of several polls party chairperson Rusty Hicks intends to release in an effort to nudge some of the candidates to drop out. “If you’re polling at 1 to 2 percent, do you have a path to get to 20? That’s the question,” he said. “Do you have a path to put you in a position to win the primary election?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the lower-polling candidates remain \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/03/glut-of-democrats-governor/\">unlikely to bow out\u003c/a>. Former controller Betty Yee, polling at 1 to 2 percent, told reporters Tuesday afternoon that she’s “staying the course.” Yee is the former vice chairperson of the party and \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/02/democratic-convention-crowded-governors-race/\">placed second\u003c/a> in a tally of party delegates’ support last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The primary is June 2. About a quarter of likely voters remain undecided.\u003c/p>\n\n",

But you have to remind yourself to calm down, because you have to be calm in that situation, because you’re the one helping the person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The goal is simple: give students real-world training early, and prepare them for careers in public safety.

She helps run the simulations, and she says the intensity of the training is intentional. “We can choose the voice, how the voice sounds like, if they’re panicked, if they’re polite, if they’re whispering, if they’re yelling,” Martinez said. “We can also create background noises, things like that, to make it as realistic as possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

At a press conference Friday, he characterized the investigation as a “fact-finding mission” that is intended “just as much to prove the election is accurate as it is to show otherwise.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta’s office this month ordered Bianco and the Riverside County Sheriff Department to pause its work, citing “grave concerns” over the legality of the criminal investigation. The state Justice Department instructed the sheriff’s department to share any information that could substantiate its concerns in order to understand the basis for the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those orders went unheeded, according to court filings. Bonta’s lawsuit in the 4th District Court of Appeal, filed Monday, asked that the court intervene in order “to prevent further abuse of the criminal process.” But a three-judge panel struck down Bonta’s request, writing that he should have filed his complaint with the Riverside County court. Bonta’s office said they were “evaluating next steps to ensure a swift and appropriate resolution to this matter.” “The Sheriff has not identified any particular crime that may have been committed by anyone — a necessary predicate to obtain a criminal search warrant,” said the attorney general’s office in an earlier statement to CalMatters. “The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office is not equipped nor legally authorized to play the role of elections monitor. By all appearances, this investigation is little more than a fishing expedition meant to sow distrust and undermine public confidence in our elections.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta has taken particular issue with the sworn statements that Bianco has made to a Riverside County judge to obtain warrants allowing him to seize the ballots. The sheriff got two warrants in February and another last week after receiving a complaint about ballot discrepancies from a Riverside County citizens’ group. Bonta has said the sheriff’s department statements his office reviewed did not establish enough probable cause to justify seizing election materials. The citizens’ group claimed Riverside County elections officials overstated the number of ballots counted in the November special election over Democrat-drawn congressional maps. Registrar of Voters Art Tinoco has denied the group’s claims and told county supervisors last month the group was using incomplete data that did not include confidential, provisional and other ballots his office received.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/california-candidates-usc-debate/\">\u003cstrong>CA Democratic governor hopefuls not bowing out\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Ten weeks before the primary election, California Democrats still haven’t narrowed down the field of candidates enough to reduce the chances of splitting the vote so much that two Republicans make it to the ballot in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what \u003ca href=\"https://cadem.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/CA-Voter-Index-Baseline-Survey-03.23.26.pdf\">polling released by the Democratic Party\u003c/a> on Tuesday showed, with the two GOP candidates — Riverside County Sheriff \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/03/bonta-chad-bianco-ballots/\">Chad Bianco\u003c/a> and former Fox News host Steve Hilton — tied for the lead, and Democrats Rep. Eric Swalwell, billionaire Tom Steyer and former Rep. Katie Porter roughly tied behind them. The results mirrored other recent polls in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the first of several polls party chairperson Rusty Hicks intends to release in an effort to nudge some of the candidates to drop out. “If you’re polling at 1 to 2 percent, do you have a path to get to 20? That’s the question,” he said. “Do you have a path to put you in a position to win the primary election?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the lower-polling candidates remain \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/03/glut-of-democrats-governor/\">unlikely to bow out\u003c/a>. Former controller Betty Yee, polling at 1 to 2 percent, told reporters Tuesday afternoon that she’s “staying the course.” Yee is the former vice chairperson of the party and \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/02/democratic-convention-crowded-governors-race/\">placed second\u003c/a> in a tally of party delegates’ support last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

As mayor of San Francisco 20 years ago, he \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/SAN-FRANCISCO-Newsom-s-Switzerland-trip-2654797.php\">repeatedly attended\u003c/a> the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As governor, he’s continued to insert himself into geopolitics, particularly as a contrast to President Donald Trump on climate, including a \u003ca href=\"https://carnegieendowment.org/posts/2023/10/why-gavin-newsoms-china-trip-is-both-mundane-and-meaningful\">China trip\u003c/a> in 2023 and last year’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/11/26/california-delegation-wraps-historic-participation-at-cop30-new-global-partnerships-clean-energy-records-and-climate-leadership/\">visit to Brazil\u003c/a> for the U.N. Climate Conference, COP30. Part of that engagement can be chalked up to California’s size and international economic relevance. The state, Newsom loves to say, “punches above its weight.” If it were a country, it would \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/04/23/california-is-now-the-4th-largest-economy-in-the-world/\">rank fourth\u003c/a> in GDP after the U.S., China and Germany.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as Newsom eyes a potential 2028 presidential run — and positions himself as the Democratic Party’s chief foil to Trump — he also seems to be wading deeper into foreign policy. Even on issues that are politically sticky, like U.S. support for Israel. It’s a pivot any governor looking toward higher office has to make, said Dane Strother, a longtime Democratic political consultant. “When you reposition from governor toward the more national fields and position, you don’t become someone you’re not, but you explain who you are in a different way,” said Strother, who has worked for Democratic heavyweights including former President Bill Clinton and former Vice President Al Gore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Strother cited examples: Ronald Reagan reassuring voters he wouldn’t go after Social Security or Medicare. Bill Clinton branding himself as a “New Democrat” who supported welfare reform and tough-on-crime policies. George W. Bush painted himself as a “compassionate conservative.” “Gavin’s chiseling out right now his national identity,” Strother said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liz Mair, a Republican consultant who has advised three presidential candidates — the late Arizona Sen. John McCain, former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry — said it’s not always an easy transition. “McCain already had much more of a national profile, largely because of having been a POW,” Mair said. “But for everybody else, they have to somehow translate from the state level up to national. And it’s a really big leap. There’s a huge learning curve there. I think even (for) governors of big states … it’s not something that is automatically easy.” That could be particularly true, Mair said, coming from California, which many voters view “as so far off in left field.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means minefields ahead — for Newsom and the many other Democratic governors looking at a 2028 run. Take Newsom’s recent comments on Israel during his book tour for his memoir, Young Man in a Hurry. At an \u003ca href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/gavin-newsom-is-finally-comfortable-with-himself/id1192761536?i=1000753725429\">onstage interview\u003c/a> in Los Angeles with Pod Save America, Newsom was asked whether Israel pushed the U.S. into war with Iran. “The issue of Bibi (Netanyahu) is interesting because he’s got his own domestic issues. He’s trying to stay out of jail. He’s got an election coming up,” he said, adding that Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces pressure from hard-line allies who want to annex the West Bank. “I mean, (\u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> columnist Thomas) Friedman and others are talking about it appropriately, sort of an apartheid state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then in the same interview, he responded this way when pressed on whether the U.S. should reconsider its military support for Israel: “It breaks my heart because leadership in Israel is walking us down that path, where I don’t think you have a choice but that consideration,” he said. Those comments, particularly his use of the word apartheid, \u003ca href=\"https://foxbaltimore.com/news/nation-world/fetterman-says-he-was-shocked-by-newsom-calling-israel-an-apartheid-state-gavin-newsom-iran\">prompted outrage\u003c/a> from some Democrats. One member of Congress \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/RepJoshG/status/2030357821557227559?s=20\">asked\u003c/a> if it’s “really worth throwing Jews under the bus to advance your political ambitions?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for Democratic critics of Israel’s war in Gaza, Newsom’s comments reflect what they see as a moral and necessary political pivot. Tariq Habash resigned from the Biden administration’s Department of Education over its unwavering support for Israel and co-founded A New Policy, a nonprofit lobbying organization aimed at changing U.S. policy toward Israel. Habash noted \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2025/10/03/how-americans-view-the-israel-hamas-conflict-2-years-into-the-war/\">public opinion\u003c/a> on Israel has shifted to be more critical of Israel’s government and more sympathetic to Palestinians, particularly among the Democratic base. There’s also \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2026/02/22/dnc-2024-autopsy-harris-gaza\">evidence\u003c/a> that Biden’s support of Israel cost Kamala Harris votes in the 2024 election.

The practice violates the government’s own regulations, according to an informal network of immigration attorneys across the country, who suspected for months that the arrests were the result of a formal policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, a document unearthed in a federal district court case in Texas appears to confirm that suspicion. “Operation Guardian Trace,” as it’s called in the document, requires Immigration and Customs Enforcement to conduct in-person interviews with the relatives of undocumented children in federal custody, and detain and deport those adults who are “illegally present in the United States.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration attorneys say the policy represents a dramatic reversal in how the government handles the release of unaccompanied minors and treats their undocumented relatives, who were previously allowed to get their children back regardless of their immigration status. “This confirms what we’ve known for months,” said Mishan Wroe, directing attorney for immigration at the National Center for Youth Law in Oakland. “The government is explicitly and deliberately using children as bait to achieve their political goals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The children, who entered the U.S. alone and without authorization and have usually come to join family, are in the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. They’ve often fled violence or persecution in their home countries, Wroe said, and most apply for asylum or other legal status. They’re detained until the government can vet their relatives, or sponsors, to make sure the adults can \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://acf.gov/orr/policy-guidance/unaccompanied-children-program-policy-guide-section-2#:~:text=The%20process%20for%20the%20safe,;%20and%20post%2Drelease%20planning.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>“provide for the physical and mental well-being of children.” \u003c/u>\u003c/a>When a sponsor is detained, their application to claim the child is invalidated.

The data does not make clear how sponsor arrests have impacted that increase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationwide, more than 100 sponsors have been arrested while trying to get their kids out of detention since July, 2025, according to internal government data obtained by The California Newsroom. That means roughly one in four sponsors who came in for interviews or I.D. checks were arrested. It’s unclear how many have been deported, or were later released and allowed to sponsor their kids.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The state, Newsom loves to say, “punches above its weight.” If it were a country, it would \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/04/23/california-is-now-the-4th-largest-economy-in-the-world/\">rank fourth\u003c/a> in GDP after the U.S., China and Germany.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as Newsom eyes a potential 2028 presidential run — and positions himself as the Democratic Party’s chief foil to Trump — he also seems to be wading deeper into foreign policy. Even on issues that are politically sticky, like U.S. support for Israel. It’s a pivot any governor looking toward higher office has to make, said Dane Strother, a longtime Democratic political consultant. “When you reposition from governor toward the more national fields and position, you don’t become someone you’re not, but you explain who you are in a different way,” said Strother, who has worked for Democratic heavyweights including former President Bill Clinton and former Vice President Al Gore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Strother cited examples: Ronald Reagan reassuring voters he wouldn’t go after Social Security or Medicare. Bill Clinton branding himself as a “New Democrat” who supported welfare reform and tough-on-crime policies. George W. Bush painted himself as a “compassionate conservative.” “Gavin’s chiseling out right now his national identity,” Strother said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

John McCain, former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry — said it’s not always an easy transition. “McCain already had much more of a national profile, largely because of having been a POW,” Mair said. “But for everybody else, they have to somehow translate from the state level up to national. And it’s a really big leap. There’s a huge learning curve there. I think even (for) governors of big states … it’s not something that is automatically easy.” That could be particularly true, Mair said, coming from California, which many voters view “as so far off in left field.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means minefields ahead — for Newsom and the many other Democratic governors looking at a 2028 run. Take Newsom’s recent comments on Israel during his book tour for his memoir, Young Man in a Hurry. At an \u003ca href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/gavin-newsom-is-finally-comfortable-with-himself/id1192761536?i=1000753725429\">onstage interview\u003c/a> in Los Angeles with Pod Save America, Newsom was asked whether Israel pushed the U.S. into war with Iran. “The issue of Bibi (Netanyahu) is interesting because he’s got his own domestic issues. He’s trying to stay out of jail. He’s got an election coming up,” he said, adding that Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces pressure from hard-line allies who want to annex the West Bank. “I mean, (\u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> columnist Thomas) Friedman and others are talking about it appropriately, sort of an apartheid state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then in the same interview, he responded this way when pressed on whether the U.S. should reconsider its military support for Israel: “It breaks my heart because leadership in Israel is walking us down that path, where I don’t think you have a choice but that consideration,” he said. Those comments, particularly his use of the word apartheid, \u003ca href=\"https://foxbaltimore.com/news/nation-world/fetterman-says-he-was-shocked-by-newsom-calling-israel-an-apartheid-state-gavin-newsom-iran\">prompted outrage\u003c/a> from some Democrats. One member of Congress \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/RepJoshG/status/2030357821557227559?s=20\">asked\u003c/a> if it’s “really worth throwing Jews under the bus to advance your political ambitions?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for Democratic critics of Israel’s war in Gaza, Newsom’s comments reflect what they see as a moral and necessary political pivot. Tariq Habash resigned from the Biden administration’s Department of Education over its unwavering support for Israel and co-founded A New Policy, a nonprofit lobbying organization aimed at changing U.S. policy toward Israel. Habash noted \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2025/10/03/how-americans-view-the-israel-hamas-conflict-2-years-into-the-war/\">public opinion\u003c/a> on Israel has shifted to be more critical of Israel’s government and more sympathetic to Palestinians, particularly among the Democratic base. There’s also \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2026/02/22/dnc-2024-autopsy-harris-gaza\">evidence\u003c/a> that Biden’s support of Israel cost Kamala Harris votes in the 2024 election.

The practice violates the government’s own regulations, according to an informal network of immigration attorneys across the country, who suspected for months that the arrests were the result of a formal policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, a document unearthed in a federal district court case in Texas appears to confirm that suspicion. “Operation Guardian Trace,” as it’s called in the document, requires Immigration and Customs Enforcement to conduct in-person interviews with the relatives of undocumented children in federal custody, and detain and deport those adults who are “illegally present in the United States.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration attorneys say the policy represents a dramatic reversal in how the government handles the release of unaccompanied minors and treats their undocumented relatives, who were previously allowed to get their children back regardless of their immigration status. “This confirms what we’ve known for months,” said Mishan Wroe, directing attorney for immigration at the National Center for Youth Law in Oakland. “The government is explicitly and deliberately using children as bait to achieve their political goals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The children, who entered the U.S. alone and without authorization and have usually come to join family, are in the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. They’ve often fled violence or persecution in their home countries, Wroe said, and most apply for asylum or other legal status. They’re detained until the government can vet their relatives, or sponsors, to make sure the adults can \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://acf.gov/orr/policy-guidance/unaccompanied-children-program-policy-guide-section-2#:~:text=The%20process%20for%20the%20safe,;%20and%20post%2Drelease%20planning.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>“provide for the physical and mental well-being of children.” \u003c/u>\u003c/a>When a sponsor is detained, their application to claim the child is invalidated.

That’s led to a new round of political blame game between President Trump, Governor Newsom and even some Democrats.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Governor Newsom criticized Trump for the war in Iran. “We’ve seen gas prices spike because of his decision, cause and effect,” Newsom said. But gas prices in California — currently averaging $5.50 a gallon, per AAA — have long been the highest in the nation. The Trump administration is blaming California’s resistance to oil production. “California has fought foolishly to prevent new American oil to go into their own state,” Energy Secretary Chris Wright told NBC News. To that end, citing the decades-old Defense Production Act, the Trump administration has ordered a pipeline off the Santa Barbara Coast to restart operations.

Last week, more than a dozen Democrats in the state legislature — who all voted for cap-and-invest last year — wrote a letter calling on the Newsom administration to “reconsider” its implementation of the law. That call was echoed by two Democrats running to succeed Newsom in California’s wide open race for governor — former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan. “In a state that says it cares about working people and a party that says it cares about working people, we ought to show it,” Mahan said.

The proposed bills attack the country’s housing shortage at multiple angles: from innovating construction methods to simplifying federal programs to encouraging localities to plan for more housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local housing activists say Congress’ bills are unlikely to result in big changes here, but that some could support California’s goal of building \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/05/14/governor-newsom-unveils-proposal-to-cut-red-tape-and-fast-track-housing-and-development/\">2.5 million homes by 2030\u003c/a> by jumpstarting construction innovation and further streamlining existing laws. “The federal government could be doing a lot more to really put the pedal to the metal, but this is a good first step,” said Laura Foote, executive director of YIMBY Action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both the House and Senate have been working on bipartisan bill packages since last year, which were consolidated \u003ca href=\"https://www.banking.senate.gov/newsroom/minority/scott-warren-release-21st-century-road-to-housing-act-legislative-package-to-boost-housing-supply-and-bring-down-costs\">earlier this month\u003c/a> into the \u003ca href=\"https://www.banking.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/MIR26311.pdf\">21st Century ROAD to Housing Act\u003c/a>. Last week, the Senate approved the package, but House leaders have called for a conference to discuss changes to the bill. At the center of the debate is a recently added provision, which limits large institutional investors from buying single-family homes, a proposed rule President Donald \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2026/02/13/housing-deal-faces-new-hurdle-as-trump-pushes-investor-ban-00779021\">Trump requested in February\u003c/a>. On Friday, he announced his own set of reforms: two executive orders aiming to tackle both supply and demand. One order seeks to \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2026/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-removes-regulatory-barriers-to-affordable-home-construction/\">remove regulatory barriers, such as green building mandates, from\u003c/a> permitting requirements, while the other \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2026/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-promotes-access-to-mortgage-credit/\">loosens mortgage lending regulations\u003c/a> for community banks, according to the White House’s fact sheets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California experts say, should Congress’ suite of bills pass, it could amplify or complement efforts locally in some of the key areas they say have been clogging the housing production pipeline for years: old construction methods, lengthy environmental reviews and outdated regulations. Reforming some of those outdated federal regulations could help boost the state’s factory-built housing industry, which local lawmakers are \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">paying close attention\u003c/a> to this year. Congress’ package includes multiple provisions to improve financing for modular housing and removes \u003ca href=\"https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/COMPS-10382\">outdated safety standard\u003c/a>s that industry experts argue makes manufactured housing more expensive. If passed, the federal regulations could work in lockstep with local bills encouraging modular and factory-built housing construction across California. State Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, a Democrat from Berkeley, plans to soon introduce a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">package of state bills\u003c/a> aimed at the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArtP-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kcbx.org/environment-and-energy/2026-03-17/state-officials-threaten-legal-action-after-federal-order-restarts-oil-pipeline-near-santa-barbara\">\u003cstrong>State officials threaten legal action after federal order restarts oil pipeline near Santa Barbara\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California officials are preparing for possible legal action after the Trump administration ordered the restart of a controversial offshore oil operation along the state’s Central Coast. The California State Lands Commission held an emergency meeting Monday after Texas-based Sable Offshore Corp. resumed sending oil through the Santa Ynez pipeline system near the Gaviota Coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Company officials say they restarted the pipeline Saturday under a federal order issued by U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright using the Defense Production Act, a Cold War-era law that allows the federal government to direct private companies to prioritize production tied to national defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California officials argue the move bypasses state environmental and safety laws and existing court rulings. “Today what we’re doing here is putting the federal government and any entities that use state lands on notice,” said Malia Cohen, who chairs the commission. “We have jurisdiction over public trust lands and tidelands in California, and any attempt to circumvent our jurisdiction will be challenged.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Ynez pipeline system has been largely idle since the Refugio oil spill in 2015, when a ruptured pipeline sent thousands of gallons of crude oil into the ocean, damaging coastal habitats and fisheries. Environmental groups and advocates have urged regulators to block the restart, warning it could increase the risk of another spill and argue the project has not undergone a new environmental review. “A defective pipeline operating at high pressure with no legal guardrails is a threat to public safety, to our economy, and to the entire coast,” said Environmental Defense Center Executive Director Alex Katz.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The proposed bills attack the country’s housing shortage at multiple angles: from innovating construction methods to simplifying federal programs to encouraging localities to plan for more housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local housing activists say Congress’ bills are unlikely to result in big changes here, but that some could support California’s goal of building \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/05/14/governor-newsom-unveils-proposal-to-cut-red-tape-and-fast-track-housing-and-development/\">2.5 million homes by 2030\u003c/a> by jumpstarting construction innovation and further streamlining existing laws. “The federal government could be doing a lot more to really put the pedal to the metal, but this is a good first step,” said Laura Foote, executive director of YIMBY Action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both the House and Senate have been working on bipartisan bill packages since last year, which were consolidated \u003ca href=\"https://www.banking.senate.gov/newsroom/minority/scott-warren-release-21st-century-road-to-housing-act-legislative-package-to-boost-housing-supply-and-bring-down-costs\">earlier this month\u003c/a> into the \u003ca href=\"https://www.banking.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/MIR26311.pdf\">21st Century ROAD to Housing Act\u003c/a>. Last week, the Senate approved the package, but House leaders have called for a conference to discuss changes to the bill. At the center of the debate is a recently added provision, which limits large institutional investors from buying single-family homes, a proposed rule President Donald \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2026/02/13/housing-deal-faces-new-hurdle-as-trump-pushes-investor-ban-00779021\">Trump requested in February\u003c/a>. On Friday, he announced his own set of reforms: two executive orders aiming to tackle both supply and demand. One order seeks to \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2026/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-removes-regulatory-barriers-to-affordable-home-construction/\">remove regulatory barriers, such as green building mandates, from\u003c/a> permitting requirements, while the other \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2026/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-promotes-access-to-mortgage-credit/\">loosens mortgage lending regulations\u003c/a> for community banks, according to the White House’s fact sheets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California experts say, should Congress’ suite of bills pass, it could amplify or complement efforts locally in some of the key areas they say have been clogging the housing production pipeline for years: old construction methods, lengthy environmental reviews and outdated regulations. Reforming some of those outdated federal regulations could help boost the state’s factory-built housing industry, which local lawmakers are \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">paying close attention\u003c/a> to this year. Congress’ package includes multiple provisions to improve financing for modular housing and removes \u003ca href=\"https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/COMPS-10382\">outdated safety standard\u003c/a>s that industry experts argue makes manufactured housing more expensive. If passed, the federal regulations could work in lockstep with local bills encouraging modular and factory-built housing construction across California. State Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, a Democrat from Berkeley, plans to soon introduce a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">package of state bills\u003c/a> aimed at the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArtP-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kcbx.org/environment-and-energy/2026-03-17/state-officials-threaten-legal-action-after-federal-order-restarts-oil-pipeline-near-santa-barbara\">\u003cstrong>State officials threaten legal action after federal order restarts oil pipeline near Santa Barbara\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California officials are preparing for possible legal action after the Trump administration ordered the restart of a controversial offshore oil operation along the state’s Central Coast.

Halfway through the event, protesters marched down the block to the west end of the facility to make sure the music could be heard more clearly by the people being held inside. “We moved to this side because we got some calls from inside from people saying they couldn’t hear us,” said Pablo Alvarado, executive director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NDLON representatives later said some people with loved ones inside the facility confirmed they were able to hear the music after the group moved. Caleb Soto, an attorney with NDLON, said advocates believe the conditions inside the privately run detention center reflect DHS’ cruelty against immigrant communities. “The people who are being killed inside there aren’t being killed just because of neglect,” said Soto. “It’s because of what’s called organized abandonment.

Teachers usually talk to their colleagues from the same grade level and follow pre-designed lesson plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steven Kellner, director of district leadership and state policy for the nonprofit California Education Partners, said that creates a “herky-jerky” learning experience for students. “‘Kindergarten’s this way and first grade’s that way,’ and they have nothing to do with each other,” he said of districts’ typical approach. “Transitional kindergarten is great, but if it’s not connected to the other grades, it’s not super helpful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-03-16/activists-gather-for-protest-concert-at-adelanto-ice-detention-center\">\u003cstrong>Advocates call attention to plight of undocumented detainees at Adelanto facility\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A caravan of immigrant rights activists and musicians drove to the Adelanto ICE Processing Center near Victorville on Saturday to stage a protest concert and caravan outside the detention center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 30 cars and three charter buses traveled roughly 70 miles from Pasadena to the Adelanto ICE facility and arrived around 3:30 p.m. The caravan was organized by the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON) and its affiliate organizations, whose representatives said the event was meant to draw attention to the \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-03-05/scngs-ryanne-mena-letters-describe-isolation-medical-concerns-inside-adelanto-ice-facility\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>conditions inside the facility\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, the \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-03-09/second-death-linked-to-adelanto-ice-facility-reported-in-two-weeks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>deaths reported at the Adelanto detention facility\u003c/u>\u003c/a> over the past year, and to raise the spirits of the people inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the caravan arrived, musicians from several bands — including headliners \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.instagram.com/losjornalerosdelnorte/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>Los Jornaleros del Norte\u003c/u>\u003c/a> — jumped on a mobile stage truck and began performing. Protesters throughout the afternoon danced and chanted as the group performed songs calling for the closure of the facility and release of workers detained there. Halfway through the event, protesters marched down the block to the west end of the facility to make sure the music could be heard more clearly by the people being held inside. “We moved to this side because we got some calls from inside from people saying they couldn’t hear us,” said Pablo Alvarado, executive director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NDLON representatives later said some people with loved ones inside the facility confirmed they were able to hear the music after the group moved. Caleb Soto, an attorney with NDLON, said advocates believe the conditions inside the privately run detention center reflect DHS’ cruelty against immigrant communities. “The people who are being killed inside there aren’t being killed just because of neglect,” said Soto. “It’s because of what’s called organized abandonment. It’s on purpose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
