Some are overjoyed with the death of the country’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, but others are concerned about the safety of friends and loved ones in the region. The greater Los Angeles area has a huge concentration of Iranians. That includes LA city councilman Adrin Nazarian. He was born in Iran, but he and his family fled in 1981.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a way to tackle California’s notoriously high rents and home prices, state lawmakers have set their sights on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">bringing down the cost of construction.\u003c/a> One idea: building it in factories. \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The US Supreme Court has \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-transgender-students-california-cca311ae39d267f31c1392a0bcf780cd\">blocked a California law\u003c/a> that banned school employees from outing transgender students.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>LA councilmember, a native Iranian, provides unique perspective on war with Iran\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2026/03/03/nx-s1-5732968/iran-us-trump-war\">intensifying conflict in Iran\u003c/a> is leaving many Iranian Americans conflicted. On one hand, they’re celebrating the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2026/02/28/1123499337/iran-israel-ayatollah-ali-khamenei-killed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.\u003c/a> But there’s also concern about the safety of friends and family who are still in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles City Councilmember Adrin Nazarian was born in Iran before he and his family fled the country in 1981. He says he’s conflicted. “Obviously, it’s critically important and vital that this regime in Iran goes. Obviously it has its supporters in Iran, but anyone who is abroad, there’s a reason for their displacement similar to my family’s,” Nazarian said. “But at what human cost the military actions come is what concerns me. The way this was carried out raises more questions than it does provide solutions. Whether it’s endangering U.S. personnel lives and not really demonstrating what the end game of this is. ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To that point, Nazarian says the coming days and months will be vital in ensuring a potential regime change. “My fear is, if it’s not done appropriately, who’s gonna step in?

Some are overjoyed with the death of the country’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, but others are concerned about the safety of friends and loved ones in the region. The greater Los Angeles area has a huge concentration of Iranians. That includes LA city councilman Adrin Nazarian. He was born in Iran, but he and his family fled in 1981.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a way to tackle California’s notoriously high rents and home prices, state lawmakers have set their sights on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">bringing down the cost of construction.\u003c/a> One idea: building it in factories. \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The US Supreme Court has \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-transgender-students-california-cca311ae39d267f31c1392a0bcf780cd\">blocked a California law\u003c/a> that banned school employees from outing transgender students.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>LA councilmember, a native Iranian, provides unique perspective on war with Iran\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2026/03/03/nx-s1-5732968/iran-us-trump-war\">intensifying conflict in Iran\u003c/a> is leaving many Iranian Americans conflicted. On one hand, they’re celebrating the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2026/02/28/1123499337/iran-israel-ayatollah-ali-khamenei-killed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.\u003c/a> But there’s also concern about the safety of friends and family who are still in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles City Councilmember Adrin Nazarian was born in Iran before he and his family fled the country in 1981. He says he’s conflicted. “Obviously, it’s critically important and vital that this regime in Iran goes. Obviously it has its supporters in Iran, but anyone who is abroad, there’s a reason for their displacement similar to my family’s,” Nazarian said. “But at what human cost the military actions come is what concerns me. The way this was carried out raises more questions than it does provide solutions. Whether it’s endangering U.S. personnel lives and not really demonstrating what the end game of this is. ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To that point, Nazarian says the coming days and months will be vital in ensuring a potential regime change. “My fear is, if it’s not done appropriately, who’s gonna step in? Is there gonna be someone even more conservative, more hard-lined than Ali Khamenei? The void is now going to create a situation where we don’t know exactly where Iran is going to go,” he said. ” And what concerns me is that at the end of the day, it’s innocent individuals that are paying the price while international forces and the regime itself of Iran, current regime are playing this dance with one another. It’s the everyday Iranians that are suffering most.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12075043/its-expensive-to-build-housing-california-lawmakers-say-factory-built-is-the-future\">\u003cstrong>It’s expensive to build housing.

These programs integrate long-term housing with voluntary, flexible support services like addiction treatment and case management to provide people with stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration’s efforts for the current funding cycle were struck down in court. But if this year’s requirements are similar, about 50 people in Monterey and San Benito counties would likely lose their housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a Sunday evening in late January, Tim Heavin is on the mic at KHDC, a small radio station in Salinas. Heeding a listener’s request, he plays a Charlie Puth song. Then he queues up an original, “Heir to Everything.” “This one’s hot right now, so I’ll play this one,” he says. Heavin is a musician and DJ by night, but he also has a rare perspective on homelessness. He experienced it, then got out of it, and now spends most of his time as a community health worker and advocate for unhoused people. But he says that never would have happened if it weren’t for the Helping Hands Program in Hollister. “If I didn’t get in that program, and if I would’ve stayed homeless, who knows where I’d be?” he said while sitting on a bench at a park near KHDC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November 2025, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published a Notice of Funding Opportunity—known as a NOFO in the grant writing sphere. The NOFO was for a program called Continuum of Care, the single biggest source of federal homelessness prevention funding. But this NOFO required counties to use less than 30% of the grant for permanent housing programs—like the one that helped lift Heavin out of homelessness. “We were shocked by the 30% cap on permanent housing,” said Katrina McKenzie, the Executive Director of the Coalition of Homeless Services Providers for Monterey and San Benito counties. “That was really a gut punch to our Continuum of Care.” In 2024, CHSP spent about two-thirds of its HUD grant on permanent housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A judge forced HUD to reinstate the previous grant criteria for the 2025 NOFO. But McKenzie with CHSP is bracing for a similar effort this year. “That 2025 NOFO that dropped in November was the precursor of what the future’s gonna look like,” she said. “I strongly believe that, for the majority of wild and crazy things in that NOFO, that is what’s going to drop in July of 2026.” If that happens, dozens of people in the region could fall back into homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Protests, celebrations held following military strikes in Iran\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Many Iranian Americans across California celebrated this weekend following the US-Israeli military strikes in Iran that killed the country’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Los Angeles, thousands of people took to the streets downtown and in Westwood. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2026/03/01/nx-s1-5731430/iranians-in-los-angeles-react-to-the-strikes-on-iran\">People waved American flags and Israeli flags\u003c/a> and carried signs that said, thank you, Trump. But some Iranian Americans had mixed feelings about the attack. Mehdi Yahyanejad is a pro-democracy activist in LA. He says since the mass protests in January in Iran and the brutal crackdown that followed, when the Iranian regime killed thousands, maybe tens of thousands of people, Iranians have been wanting something to happen, some retaliation for the killing. But then came news reports that a girls’ school in Iran was hit during the attack, killing more than 100 people. Yahyanejad says if that keeps happening, we might not see so many celebrations. “What’s important next is to make sure the collateral damage is minimal,” he said. “Otherwise, the people’s attitude can change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amir Parstabar runs a marketing agency in Los Angeles. He left Iran when he was 15. Like so many Iranians, since the January protests, he’s constantly on his phone trying to get news from Iran. His wife’s good friend from high school lost a son in the protests. He was 18. The family says he was shot in the chest by security forces. And Parstabar says Iranians became hopeless after the crackdown. “They just don’t see a future. They say, we have nothing to lose,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The greater Los Angeles area is home to one of the largest, if not the largest Iranian populations outside of Iran itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other parts of the state, there were celebrations, but also protests against the latest US military action. That includes in San Francisco. Yasmine Mortazavi, an Iranian American and member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, said she learned of the strikes after waking up Saturday morning. “I’m still in a bit of shock,” she told KQED. “I’m not surprised. This is what I would expect from a U.S.-Israeli action like this.” Mortazavi said her immediate family members were recently in Iran and that she has extended family there as well. She has not heard from her immediate family since the strikes but said friends are evacuating.

These programs integrate long-term housing with voluntary, flexible support services like addiction treatment and case management to provide people with stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration’s efforts for the current funding cycle were struck down in court. But if this year’s requirements are similar, about 50 people in Monterey and San Benito counties would likely lose their housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a Sunday evening in late January, Tim Heavin is on the mic at KHDC, a small radio station in Salinas. Heeding a listener’s request, he plays a Charlie Puth song. Then he queues up an original, “Heir to Everything.” “This one’s hot right now, so I’ll play this one,” he says. Heavin is a musician and DJ by night, but he also has a rare perspective on homelessness. He experienced it, then got out of it, and now spends most of his time as a community health worker and advocate for unhoused people. But he says that never would have happened if it weren’t for the Helping Hands Program in Hollister. “If I didn’t get in that program, and if I would’ve stayed homeless, who knows where I’d be?” he said while sitting on a bench at a park near KHDC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November 2025, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published a Notice of Funding Opportunity—known as a NOFO in the grant writing sphere. The NOFO was for a program called Continuum of Care, the single biggest source of federal homelessness prevention funding. But this NOFO required counties to use less than 30% of the grant for permanent housing programs—like the one that helped lift Heavin out of homelessness. “We were shocked by the 30% cap on permanent housing,” said Katrina McKenzie, the Executive Director of the Coalition of Homeless Services Providers for Monterey and San Benito counties. “That was really a gut punch to our Continuum of Care.” In 2024, CHSP spent about two-thirds of its HUD grant on permanent housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But McKenzie with CHSP is bracing for a similar effort this year. “That 2025 NOFO that dropped in November was the precursor of what the future’s gonna look like,” she said. “I strongly believe that, for the majority of wild and crazy things in that NOFO, that is what’s going to drop in July of 2026.” If that happens, dozens of people in the region could fall back into homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Protests, celebrations held following military strikes in Iran\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Many Iranian Americans across California celebrated this weekend following the US-Israeli military strikes in Iran that killed the country’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Los Angeles, thousands of people took to the streets downtown and in Westwood. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2026/03/01/nx-s1-5731430/iranians-in-los-angeles-react-to-the-strikes-on-iran\">People waved American flags and Israeli flags\u003c/a> and carried signs that said, thank you, Trump. But some Iranian Americans had mixed feelings about the attack. Mehdi Yahyanejad is a pro-democracy activist in LA. He says since the mass protests in January in Iran and the brutal crackdown that followed, when the Iranian regime killed thousands, maybe tens of thousands of people, Iranians have been wanting something to happen, some retaliation for the killing. But then came news reports that a girls’ school in Iran was hit during the attack, killing more than 100 people. Yahyanejad says if that keeps happening, we might not see so many celebrations. “What’s important next is to make sure the collateral damage is minimal,” he said. “Otherwise, the people’s attitude can change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amir Parstabar runs a marketing agency in Los Angeles. He left Iran when he was 15. Like so many Iranians, since the January protests, he’s constantly on his phone trying to get news from Iran. His wife’s good friend from high school lost a son in the protests. He was 18. The family says he was shot in the chest by security forces. And Parstabar says Iranians became hopeless after the crackdown. “They just don’t see a future. They say, we have nothing to lose,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The greater Los Angeles area is home to one of the largest, if not the largest Iranian populations outside of Iran itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other parts of the state, there were celebrations, but also protests against the latest US military action. That includes in San Francisco. Yasmine Mortazavi, an Iranian American and member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, said she learned of the strikes after waking up Saturday morning. “I’m still in a bit of shock,” she told KQED. “I’m not surprised. This is what I would expect from a U.S.-Israeli action like this.” Mortazavi said her immediate family members were recently in Iran and that she has extended family there as well. She has not heard from her immediate family since the strikes but said friends are evacuating. She acknowledged that Iranian Americans hold a range of political views, including some who support U.S. intervention, but said she believes the future of Iran should be determined by its people.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/lausd-board-places-superintendent-alberto-carvalho-on-leave-fbi-search\">\u003cstrong>LAUSD board places superintendent on leave following federal searches\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Los Angeles Unified School Board voted unanimously Friday to place Superintendent Alberto Carvalho on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI searched Carvalho’s home and district offices Wednesday.

Governor Gavin Newsom says he wants them to come back into the office starting this summer — many still work remotely part time following the pandemic. But state worker unions hope \u003ca href=\"https://www.capradio.org/articles/2026/02/23/union-backed-bill-would-require-telework-options-for-california-state-workers/\">a new bill will protect their ability to telework\u003c/a> indefinitely.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Humboldt County, low wages are leading to high rates of poverty and \u003ca href=\"https://www.ijpr.org/food-and-agriculture/2026-02-26/far-northern-california-uses-food-assistance-more-than-rest-of-state\">greater enrollment in the state food program CalFresh.\u003c/a> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Along the coast of San Mateo County, elephant seals at Año Nuevo State Park could be experiencing \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/2000206/officials-confirm-small-bird-flu-outbreak-in-elephant-seals-at-ano-nuevo-state-park\">a “small outbreak” of bird flu\u003c/a>, according to scientists.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2 class=\"page-title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.capradio.org/articles/2026/02/23/union-backed-bill-would-require-telework-options-for-california-state-workers/\">\u003cstrong>Union-backed bill would require telework options for California state workers\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On any given day before the pandemic, hundreds of workers would walk the sidewalks circling the State Capitol in Sacramento on their lunch breaks. But it isn’t as busy in the downtown Capitol corridor as it used to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A big part of that is state workers are still working remotely a few days a week. Sacramento County is home to California’s largest concentration of state employees – just under 90,000 workers. Gina Garcia-Smith is one of them. She is a former school teacher and now works as a program consultant for the California Department of Education located in downtown Sacramento. Garcia-Smith said the option to work from home has allowed her more flexibility, especially after becoming a new parent. “I’m able to do my job remotely for three days out of the week, that really has improved my quality of life and the amount of time I’m able to spend with my daughter,” Garcia-Smith said. “I’m not, you know, stuck in traffic. I’m able to be present.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Governor Gavin Newsom has ordered most state employees to return to the office four days a week starting July 1, 2026, up from a required twice per week. The mandate received pushback from state workers, including Garcia-Smith, who said the ability to telework is a big draw for state jobs. “If we really want to attract and retain quality state workers, it’s really important to be able to provide some incentive because clearly pay is not the incentive that’s being provided,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia-Smith’s union, SEIU Local 1000 is backing a \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260AB1729\">bill\u003c/a> this year that would require state agencies to continue offering telework. Other unions representing state workers also support the measure, including CAPS UAW Local 1115, AFSCME 2620, CASE, and PECG. Democratic Assemblymember Alex Lee of Milpitas authored the legislation. His district encompasses Silicon Valley where private-sector telework is typical. Lee argued state workers should continue to benefit from that same opportunity. “This has allowed for people to move further away from Sacramento in places that are more affordable, close to their family networks, instead of all being concentrated in one area. And this has a lot of great potential benefits for the workers themselves,” Lee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A 2025 State Auditor \u003ca href=\"https://www.auditor.ca.gov/reports/2024-118/\">report\u003c/a> estimated that continued telework for state employees would save California around $225 million a year in real estate and facility costs. Supporters of remote work argue the state should consider that projected savings especially \u003ca href=\"https://www.capradio.org/articles/2026/01/09/california-faces-a-bleak-budget-year-but-not-as-gloomy-as-some-expected/\">as it faces a bleak budget outlook\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArtP-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.ijpr.org/food-and-agriculture/2026-02-26/far-northern-california-uses-food-assistance-more-than-rest-of-state\">\u003cstrong>Far Northern California uses food assistance more than rest of state\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp class=\"ArtP-subheadline\">Almost a quarter of adults in Humboldt County are enrolled in CalFresh.

But usage in the far northern portion of the state is much higher, according to \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://ucdavis.app.box.com/s/eplylnar0l5ipuo1133faf8bqk70wzok\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a report\u003c/a> from the \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.ucdavis.edu/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">University of California, Davis\u003c/a>. In Del Norte County, total participation is 24.8%, in Humboldt County, it’s 22.4%, Siskiyou County is 22.3%, and it’s 20.2% in Trinity County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report noted that higher participation in CalFresh often aligns with other indicators of economic insecurity, including poverty and unemployment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://ucdavis.app.box.com/s/txzfnjf75xlnbmx20h3g9u6f9dmxh1uq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">analysis from UC Davis\u003c/a>, using data from 2014 to 2024, found workers in Humboldt County earn less than those in the rest of California. Median household income in Humboldt County rose about $17,000 over 10 years, adjusted for inflation, while it increased by about $38,000 statewide. That means income grew by about 43% in Humboldt County compared to almost 62% statewide. Despite an unemployment rate typically below the state average, more than 6% of people in Humboldt work full-time, year round and still live in poverty. That share has almost doubled since 2014, while decreasing statewide.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/2000206/officials-confirm-small-bird-flu-outbreak-in-elephant-seals-at-ano-nuevo-state-park\">\u003cstrong>Officials confirm small bird flu ‘outbreak’ in elephant seals at Año Nuevo State Park\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Scientists have confirmed that seven weaned northern elephant seal pups at Año Nuevo State Park tested positive for highly pathogenic avian influenza, known as H5N1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The confirmation, provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Veterinary Services Laboratory, marks \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/california\">California\u003c/a>’s first confirmed detection of the virus in a marine mammal. Researchers estimate that about 30 seals, mostly recently weaned pups, plus one adult male, have died so far. Additional samples are still being processed, and officials say the outbreak appears to have been caught early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Field teams already monitoring the colony noticed a slight uptick in dead seals late last week and observed animals showing neurological symptoms, including tremors, weakness and seizure-like activity. During a post-mortem exam on one known female weaned pup, veterinarians found signs that the disease moved quickly. “The animal was in excellent nutritional condition,” said Megan Moriarty, a wildlife veterinarian at UC Santa Cruz. “That means she likely died quickly from a disease process that happened rapidly, as opposed to something more chronic.” Moriarty said the seal showed significant damage to the brain and lungs — findings consistent with the neurological symptoms researchers had observed in the seals out in the field.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Governor Gavin Newsom says he wants them to come back into the office starting this summer — many still work remotely part time following the pandemic. But state worker unions hope \u003ca href=\"https://www.capradio.org/articles/2026/02/23/union-backed-bill-would-require-telework-options-for-california-state-workers/\">a new bill will protect their ability to telework\u003c/a> indefinitely.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Humboldt County, low wages are leading to high rates of poverty and \u003ca href=\"https://www.ijpr.org/food-and-agriculture/2026-02-26/far-northern-california-uses-food-assistance-more-than-rest-of-state\">greater enrollment in the state food program CalFresh.\u003c/a> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Along the coast of San Mateo County, elephant seals at Año Nuevo State Park could be experiencing \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/2000206/officials-confirm-small-bird-flu-outbreak-in-elephant-seals-at-ano-nuevo-state-park\">a “small outbreak” of bird flu\u003c/a>, according to scientists.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2 class=\"page-title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.capradio.org/articles/2026/02/23/union-backed-bill-would-require-telework-options-for-california-state-workers/\">\u003cstrong>Union-backed bill would require telework options for California state workers\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On any given day before the pandemic, hundreds of workers would walk the sidewalks circling the State Capitol in Sacramento on their lunch breaks. But it isn’t as busy in the downtown Capitol corridor as it used to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A big part of that is state workers are still working remotely a few days a week. Sacramento County is home to California’s largest concentration of state employees – just under 90,000 workers. Gina Garcia-Smith is one of them. She is a former school teacher and now works as a program consultant for the California Department of Education located in downtown Sacramento. Garcia-Smith said the option to work from home has allowed her more flexibility, especially after becoming a new parent. “I’m able to do my job remotely for three days out of the week, that really has improved my quality of life and the amount of time I’m able to spend with my daughter,” Garcia-Smith said. “I’m not, you know, stuck in traffic. I’m able to be present.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Governor Gavin Newsom has ordered most state employees to return to the office four days a week starting July 1, 2026, up from a required twice per week. The mandate received pushback from state workers, including Garcia-Smith, who said the ability to telework is a big draw for state jobs. “If we really want to attract and retain quality state workers, it’s really important to be able to provide some incentive because clearly pay is not the incentive that’s being provided,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia-Smith’s union, SEIU Local 1000 is backing a \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260AB1729\">bill\u003c/a> this year that would require state agencies to continue offering telework. Other unions representing state workers also support the measure, including CAPS UAW Local 1115, AFSCME 2620, CASE, and PECG. Democratic Assemblymember Alex Lee of Milpitas authored the legislation. His district encompasses Silicon Valley where private-sector telework is typical. Lee argued state workers should continue to benefit from that same opportunity. “This has allowed for people to move further away from Sacramento in places that are more affordable, close to their family networks, instead of all being concentrated in one area. And this has a lot of great potential benefits for the workers themselves,” Lee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Median household income in Humboldt County rose about $17,000 over 10 years, adjusted for inflation, while it increased by about $38,000 statewide. That means income grew by about 43% in Humboldt County compared to almost 62% statewide. Despite an unemployment rate typically below the state average, more than 6% of people in Humboldt work full-time, year round and still live in poverty.

Researchers estimate that about 30 seals, mostly recently weaned pups, plus one adult male, have died so far. Additional samples are still being processed, and officials say the outbreak appears to have been caught early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Field teams already monitoring the colony noticed a slight uptick in dead seals late last week and observed animals showing neurological symptoms, including tremors, weakness and seizure-like activity. During a post-mortem exam on one known female weaned pup, veterinarians found signs that the disease moved quickly. “The animal was in excellent nutritional condition,” said Megan Moriarty, a wildlife veterinarian at UC Santa Cruz. “That means she likely died quickly from a disease process that happened rapidly, as opposed to something more chronic.” Moriarty said the seal showed significant damage to the brain and lungs — findings consistent with the neurological symptoms researchers had observed in the seals out in the field.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

This comes a day after \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/fbi-raid-lausd-superintendent-alberto-carvalho\">federal investigators raided his home\u003c/a> and office at the district’s headquarters.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">An agent who is reportedly with the Department of Homeland Security is set to appear in court in Riverside Friday.

They were there to discuss immigration concerns in light of aggressive and at-times-violent immigration enforcement recently carried out in Minneapolis and other cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had representatives from our Khmer community, our Lao community, our Mien community, and our Hmong community,” said May Gnia Her, who was in the front row of the gathering at The Fresno Center, a non-profit organization that serves members of Southeast Asian and other diaspora in the Fresno area. Her is the executive director of a different non-profit: Stone Soup Fresno, which runs a preschool and other services for both kids and adults.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her is Hmong – an indigenous ethnic group from Southeast Asia and China – and she explains\u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kvpr.org/community/2025-12-18/weve-come-such-a-long-way-the-valleys-hmong-community-at-50-from-ashes-of-war-to-seeds-of-hope\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \u003cu>that the Hmong-American story is unique\u003c/u>\u003c/a>. Many Hmong people fled to the U.S. as refugees beginning in the 1970s. During the Vietnam War, countless Hmong people had risked their lives fighting alongside the U.S. in a parallel “Secret War” in neighboring Laos. As a result, tens of thousands of Hmong people died, and hundreds of thousands were no longer welcome in their communities. “We were left with no homeland,” Her said. “We were left with no villages, no place to go back.” Today, decades later, many who came to the U.S. as refugees have become naturalized U.S. citizens, and younger generations of Hmong-Americans who were born here were granted birthright citizenship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, many say they’re afraid of being detained and even deported under a federal immigration crackdown by the second Trump administration. Local law enforcement agencies don’t have solid answers for the community, either. When asked whether federal immigration officials have ramped up their presence in the Valley, representatives of the Fresno Police Department and the Fresno and Madera County sheriff’s offices couldn’t say – though they did all confirm they don’t cooperate directly with ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the absence of information about whether the landscape is changing, some locals have taken it upon themselves to be immigration vigilantes, flooding social media with photos and videos purporting to show ICE agents in the community. And although a few of these videos likely did capture ICE agents, many were other local law enforcement operations. For instance, the Merced County Sheriff’s Office in mid-January confirmed that\u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.facebook.com/streetnews.merced/posts/pfbid0VWcSR8SEtMDZRJsUssDQyb4fnewj7kiL9oKgMiz7EqWz4fmzbv5N7Rw5AZpQQwspl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \u003cu>a set of videos claiming to shed light on ICE operations\u003c/u>\u003c/a> in fact captured a\u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://themercedfocus.org/sheriff-says-arrest-operation-in-merced-was-not-ice-as-social-media-rumors-circulate/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \u003cu>massive law enforcement operation being carried out by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation\u003c/u>\u003c/a> and a handful of other law enforcement agencies. Misinformation in times like these can backfire, said Gregorio Matiaz, an immigration program manager with the non-profit Centro Binacional para el Desarrollo Indígena Oaxaqueño that provides services to the local indigenous Mexican community. “It’s causing more uncertainty and fear amongst the community,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/fbi-raid-lausd-superintendent-alberto-carvalho\">\u003cstrong>FBI raids LAUSD superintendent’s home and office\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Federal agents searched Los Angeles Unified School District headquarters and the San Pedro home of Superintendent Alberto Carvalho on Wednesday morning, the Department of Justice confirmed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reason for the searches is unknown.

Put the car in fucking park.” Deputies said Rodriguez wore a badge around his neck and identified himself as law enforcement. On video, Rodriguez is seen commanding the truck’s driver to get out of the car and sit on the curb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department arrested Rodriguez at his home after investigators obtained a search warrant and collected evidence related to the incident. Rodriguez was arraigned in December, according to records obtained by KVCR, where he was charged with assault with a deadly weapon, child endangerment and false imprisonment. Rodriguez pleaded not guilty, and his private attorney, Michael Scaffidi, did not return calls requesting comment. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said the case is still under investigation. The agency would not confirm or deny that Rodriguez was employed by the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees both ICE and Border Protection. ICE officials have told multiple media outlets that Rodriguez was not employed by their agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Johnson is the dean of the UC Davis School of Law, who considers Rodriguez’s situation an “extraordinary case.” “It’s really rare for a state prosecutor’s office or a county prosecutor’s office to bring these kinds of charges against a federal law enforcement officer,” Johnson said. “And I assume at some point, there’ll be efforts to dismiss it before there’s any plea.” Johnson, an expert on immigration law, said that state court cases involving federal agents are often moved to federal court to be resolved. He added that in many cases, the federal government attempts to intervene to defend its employees.\u003c/p>\n\n",

They were there to discuss immigration concerns in light of aggressive and at-times-violent immigration enforcement recently carried out in Minneapolis and other cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had representatives from our Khmer community, our Lao community, our Mien community, and our Hmong community,” said May Gnia Her, who was in the front row of the gathering at The Fresno Center, a non-profit organization that serves members of Southeast Asian and other diaspora in the Fresno area. Her is the executive director of a different non-profit: Stone Soup Fresno, which runs a preschool and other services for both kids and adults.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her is Hmong – an indigenous ethnic group from Southeast Asia and China – and she explains\u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kvpr.org/community/2025-12-18/weve-come-such-a-long-way-the-valleys-hmong-community-at-50-from-ashes-of-war-to-seeds-of-hope\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \u003cu>that the Hmong-American story is unique\u003c/u>\u003c/a>. Many Hmong people fled to the U.S. as refugees beginning in the 1970s. During the Vietnam War, countless Hmong people had risked their lives fighting alongside the U.S. in a parallel “Secret War” in neighboring Laos. As a result, tens of thousands of Hmong people died, and hundreds of thousands were no longer welcome in their communities. “We were left with no homeland,” Her said. “We were left with no villages, no place to go back.” Today, decades later, many who came to the U.S. as refugees have become naturalized U.S. citizens, and younger generations of Hmong-Americans who were born here were granted birthright citizenship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, many say they’re afraid of being detained and even deported under a federal immigration crackdown by the second Trump administration. Local law enforcement agencies don’t have solid answers for the community, either. When asked whether federal immigration officials have ramped up their presence in the Valley, representatives of the Fresno Police Department and the Fresno and Madera County sheriff’s offices couldn’t say – though they did all confirm they don’t cooperate directly with ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Based on their income, they’ll pay a certain percentage of the rent and the government pays the rest. Recipients include seniors, veterans, people with disabilities and children. But the Trump administration is expected to introduce new rules to these programs in the coming months.

Several housing experts told NPR a time limit alone could be considered an implied work requirement. But last year, Housing Secretary Scott Turner and three other Cabinet members wrote a \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/opinion/trump-welfare-medicaid-requirements.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>New York Times opinion piece\u003c/u>\u003c/a> calling on Congress to expand work requirements across safety net programs.

Gavin Newsom and state lawmakers set out a plan to create the largest universal preschool program in the country for 4-year-olds, through a massive ramp-up of an elementary grade known as transitional kindergarten, or TK. At a \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06TKLOg9Smw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>news conference\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, Newsom \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/early-childhood-education-pre-k/newsom-proposes-making-transitional-kindergarten-available-to-all-4-year-olds\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">called it\u003c/a> “a commitment that all 4-year-olds will get high quality instructional education,” and said that the investment could close learning gaps. “People aren’t left behind, as often as they start behind,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state set a deadline that every district offer transitional kindergarten to all eligible 4-year-olds by fall 2025, and in the intervening years, schools have enrolled more than 175,000 children in TK. They’ve also had \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/california-transitional-kindergarten-teacher-credential-classroom-visit\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">to hire new teachers\u003c/a> and \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/early-childhood-education-pre-k/california-transitional-kindergarten-tk-classroom-space-facilities-bonds\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">modify classrooms\u003c/a> so that kids have enough space and quick access to \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/california-public-school-system-preschool-transitional-kindergarten-undertaking\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">smaller-sized bathrooms\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LAist spoke to more than a half dozen early childhood researchers who say a key piece has been missing in the state’s implementation: California itself hasn’t evaluated the program as it’s expanded, nor does it have plans to going forward. This, despite studies showing how critical the early years are for a child’s learning, and research from another state’s public preschool program that found students tested lower on state assessments and had more behavioral problems compared to those who weren’t in that program. “ It is a huge mistake to not evaluate the implementation of TK and whether or not the classrooms are providing developmentally appropriate practice,” said Jade Jenkins, associate professor of education at the University of California, Irvine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The criticism comes as California has invested \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/4968\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>$1.2 billion to expand TK\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, and is paying about \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Education/EdBudget/Details/1076\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>$3.9 billion this year\u003c/u>\u003c/a> to administer the new grade level. “ We need to know whether this investment is actually lifting kids. We know it’s a huge economic windfall for parents, and that’s a great boost for families. But is it lifting kids without government research?” said Bruce Fuller, a professor emeritus of education and public policy at UC Berkeley. A spokesperson for the California Department of Education said money for research has not been allocated in the state budget, and the department would “welcome a legislative appropriation” to “study the impacts of TK on students and families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/immigration-firing-range-ice-escondido-2b5eac653df205e1d208f877f15d792a\">\u003cstrong>Escondido to meet over ICE contract\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers training at a local gun range largely went unnoticed by residents of one Southern California city for more than a decade, until \u003cspan class=\"LinkEnhancement\">\u003ca class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" href=\"https://apnews.com/article/census-bureau-immigration-trump-us-population-7130f180e3d8c03185932e3e6f9974e8\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\">President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown\u003c/a>\u003c/span> and the recent fatal shootings of U.S. citizens by federal agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The arrangement in Escondido, a city of about 150,000 people north of San Diego, has sparked weeks of demonstrations.

That partnership ended after California passed a law in 2017 limiting such collaboration with immigration officials. Protesters in Escondido said they were unaware of the contract allowing ICE to train at the gun range in the city’s hillsides until advocates found the agreement online. They said they fear word of the deal will make immigrants afraid to report crimes to local police, weakening public safety in a city where Latinos make up about half the population.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Based on their income, they’ll pay a certain percentage of the rent and the government pays the rest. Recipients include seniors, veterans, people with disabilities and children. But the Trump administration is expected to introduce new rules to these programs in the coming months. Some lawmakers argue that could make assistance harder to access. \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California’s \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/education/early-childhood-education-pre-k/california-legislature-newsom-transitional-kindergarten-budget-research\">investing billions of dollars\u003c/a> into a new grade for 4-year-olds called transitional kindergarten.

This, despite studies showing how critical the early years are for a child’s learning, and research from another state’s public preschool program that found students tested lower on state assessments and had more behavioral problems compared to those who weren’t in that program. “ It is a huge mistake to not evaluate the implementation of TK and whether or not the classrooms are providing developmentally appropriate practice,” said Jade Jenkins, associate professor of education at the University of California, Irvine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The criticism comes as California has invested \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/4968\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>$1.2 billion to expand TK\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, and is paying about \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Education/EdBudget/Details/1076\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>$3.9 billion this year\u003c/u>\u003c/a> to administer the new grade level. “ We need to know whether this investment is actually lifting kids. We know it’s a huge economic windfall for parents, and that’s a great boost for families. But is it lifting kids without government research?” said Bruce Fuller, a professor emeritus of education and public policy at UC Berkeley. A spokesperson for the California Department of Education said money for research has not been allocated in the state budget, and the department would “welcome a legislative appropriation” to “study the impacts of TK on students and families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/immigration-firing-range-ice-escondido-2b5eac653df205e1d208f877f15d792a\">\u003cstrong>Escondido to meet over ICE contract\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers training at a local gun range largely went unnoticed by residents of one Southern California city for more than a decade, until \u003cspan class=\"LinkEnhancement\">\u003ca class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" href=\"https://apnews.com/article/census-bureau-immigration-trump-us-population-7130f180e3d8c03185932e3e6f9974e8\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\">President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown\u003c/a>\u003c/span> and the recent fatal shootings of U.S. citizens by federal agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The arrangement in Escondido, a city of about 150,000 people north of San Diego, has sparked weeks of demonstrations.

Tucked in the corner of an office park between two county health agencies, you’d hardly know it was there. Which is why a group of volunteer court observers shows up on a daily basis — to keep tabs on immigration policies that seem to change by the week, and to channel resources to people facing deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People feel comforted by just seeing us there, especially that we are people of faith,” said Jennifer Coria, who coordinates the immigration court observer program for the group Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice, or \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.cluejustice.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">CLUE\u003c/a>. Observers come from churches and other religious entities across Orange County and L.A. They’re encouraged to wear something that signals their faith, or, if they’re clergy, to show up in religious attire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want the judges to know that we are coming from a faith community and they see that there’s moral presence in these spaces,” Coria said. The immigration court observer program is among dozens of grassroots efforts that have popped up around Southern California and across the country in response to the Trump administration’s mass deportation campaign. Other groups are patrolling neighborhoods to alert residents of ICE raids, delivering food boxes to immigrant families scared to leave their homes, and posting up at Home Depots to accompany day laborers who have been a frequent target of the raids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court observers in Santa Ana aren’t there to protest inside courtrooms or try to block deportation orders. But they say they’ll keep showing up to offer pro bono legal resources and, at the least, moral support for vulnerable members of their community. “They’re my neighbors. It’s like, why wouldn’t I defend them?” said Diedre Gaffney, one of the court observers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last summer, when the Trump administration began its crackdown in earnest, ICE officers would often sit inside, or just outside courtrooms, and \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://apnews.com/article/immigration-courts-deportations-trump-administration-8b9fab5475c0da4c0f13f3381de91448\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">take people into custody\u003c/a> as soon as their case was dismissed. At the time, the court observers concentrated on getting personal information from the detainees so they could contact their families and help them locate their loved ones in ICE facilities. These days, observers say they haven’t seen ICE agents in courtrooms since the fall. So the observers’ mission has shifted to trying to get legal representation for people facing deportation proceedings without a lawyer.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12074265/widespread-kaiser-strike-to-end-after-4-weeks-with-no-deal-yet\">\u003cstrong>Widespread Kaiser strike end after 4 weeks with no deal yet\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A four-week strike by thousands of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/kaiser-permanente\">Kaiser Permanente\u003c/a> health care workers in California and Hawaii ended Tuesday morning, even though no contract deal has been reached, according to the union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The walkout \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12071014/kaiser-strike-sees-thousands-walk-out-in-california-this-time-with-no-end-in-sight\">initially involved\u003c/a> up to 31,000 nurses, physician assistants, physical therapists and others. Following significant movement at the bargaining table over the weekend, according to the union, no picket lines were held on Monday as return-to-work agreements are finalized. “Returning members to their patients and their livelihoods is the clearest path to securing a final agreement and building on the progress achieved during the strike,” said a statement by United Nurses Associations of California/Union of Health Care Professionals, which notified Kaiser that the strike concluded at 7 a.m. Tuesday. Kaiser, the nation’s largest private nonprofit health care organization, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pressure had been mounting on both parties to end the walkout, which began Jan. 26 and was dubbed the largest open-ended strike by nurses and other health care workers in the U.S. Top priorities in negotiations for Kaiser employees were staffing levels and compensation, common concerns for health care workers nationwide. The company tried to minimize disruptions to patients by hiring contingency staff, rescheduling non-urgent surgeries and modifying other appointments at affected locations.

Tucked in the corner of an office park between two county health agencies, you’d hardly know it was there. Which is why a group of volunteer court observers shows up on a daily basis — to keep tabs on immigration policies that seem to change by the week, and to channel resources to people facing deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People feel comforted by just seeing us there, especially that we are people of faith,” said Jennifer Coria, who coordinates the immigration court observer program for the group Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice, or \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.cluejustice.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">CLUE\u003c/a>. Observers come from churches and other religious entities across Orange County and L.A. They’re encouraged to wear something that signals their faith, or, if they’re clergy, to show up in religious attire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want the judges to know that we are coming from a faith community and they see that there’s moral presence in these spaces,” Coria said. The immigration court observer program is among dozens of grassroots efforts that have popped up around Southern California and across the country in response to the Trump administration’s mass deportation campaign. Other groups are patrolling neighborhoods to alert residents of ICE raids, delivering food boxes to immigrant families scared to leave their homes, and posting up at Home Depots to accompany day laborers who have been a frequent target of the raids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court observers in Santa Ana aren’t there to protest inside courtrooms or try to block deportation orders. But they say they’ll keep showing up to offer pro bono legal resources and, at the least, moral support for vulnerable members of their community. “They’re my neighbors. It’s like, why wouldn’t I defend them?” said Diedre Gaffney, one of the court observers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Following significant movement at the bargaining table over the weekend, according to the union, no picket lines were held on Monday as return-to-work agreements are finalized. “Returning members to their patients and their livelihoods is the clearest path to securing a final agreement and building on the progress achieved during the strike,” said a statement by United Nurses Associations of California/Union of Health Care Professionals, which notified Kaiser that the strike concluded at 7 a.m. Tuesday. Kaiser, the nation’s largest private nonprofit health care organization, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pressure had been mounting on both parties to end the walkout, which began Jan. 26 and was dubbed the largest open-ended strike by nurses and other health care workers in the U.S. Top priorities in negotiations for Kaiser employees were staffing levels and compensation, common concerns for health care workers nationwide. The company tried to minimize disruptions to patients by hiring contingency staff, rescheduling non-urgent surgeries and modifying other appointments at affected locations.

Nine women and six men were on the trip, with five women and one man among the survivors. Their identities have not been released, but Placer County Sheriff Wayne Woo said one of those who died is the spouse of a member of the Tahoe Nordic Search and Rescue Team, a volunteer team that responded to the incident. “This has not only been challenging for our community, it’s been a challenging rescue,” Woo said. “It’s also been challenging emotionally for our team and our organization.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12073593/heavy-rain-and-snow-shut-down-roads-across-bay-area-and-sierra-nevada\">A major storm hit the Lake Tahoe region this week\u003c/a>, producing high avalanche danger.

The warning notes high avalanche danger — the fourth level on a five-point scale — and says travel in or around backcountry avalanche terrain is not recommended. “Rapidly accumulating snowfall, weak layers in the existing snowpack, and gale-force winds that blow and drift snow have created dangerous avalanche conditions in the mountains,” the warning reads. “Natural avalanches are likely, and human-triggered avalanches large enough to bury or injure people are very likely.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/02/sanders-billionaire-tax-rally/\">\u003cstrong>Bernie Sanders warns of ‘billionaire class’ as California wealth tax fight intensifies\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>U.S. Sen.

The revenue would go into a special fund with 90% reserved for health care and 10% reserved for K-12 education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of targeting income, like most taxes, this one aims at individuals’ collected wealth. “They’re saying there’s nothing you can do about it. Well, we’ve got some bad news for them, starting right here in California,” Sanders told the L.A. crowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Service Employees International Union-United Healthcare Workers West and St. John’s Community Health in Los Angeles, the sponsors of the proposal, are gathering signatures to place the measure on the ballot in November amid opposition from some other unions. It’s also a risky proposition for Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is eyeing a 2028 presidential run and needs the support of the deep pockets in Silicon Valley, to whom he has been close for years. He and the leading Democrats who are running to replace him have come out against the tax as part of a larger opposition push expected to ramp up in the coming weeks. They argue that they support making wealthy people pay more, but this specific measure would drive billionaires out of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Strike set for USC-affiliated medical centers\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>More than \u003ca href=\"https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/la-nurses-to-hold-strikes-beginning-feb-19\">1,400 registered nurses are set to strike\u003c/a> at University of Southern California affiliated medical centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nurses at USC Keck Hospital and Norris Cancer Center say they are striking for a week over higher out-of-pocket costs for their own health insurance, as contract negotiations continue. ICU nurse Kerri Dodgens is a member of the bargaining team. “They’re using it as a bargaining chip, saying we’ll give you the free health care back, but you have to accept this offer that has a lot of takeaways,” Dodgens said. “And that has poor pay that doesn’t keep pace with our competitors in the area, that doesn’t improve our staffing to increase patient safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Keck Medicine of USC says they remain committed to reaching a fair deal that offers competitive compensation.
