It would have also made those changes permanent, removing a 2030 sunset date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday marked the bill’s first hearing of the year in the Assembly Judiciary Committee, where tenants and advocates pleaded with committee members to advance the bill. But, it faced stiff opposition from rental property and building trade groups, who said it would make housing construction more expensive and could push smaller landlords out of the market. The bill failed to get enough votes, and without any additional hearings scheduled, AB 1157 will likely die there. “I’m just really, really crushed because they talk about how they don’t want to hurt the property owners, they don’t want to have them take their properties off the market,” said Chula Vista renter Tammy Alvarado, who took a 13-hour bus ride to testify in support of the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, as the 2019 Tenant Protection Act moves closer towards its expiration date, Alvarado and other tenants are worried about what it means for their own housing security. She splits the monthly payment with her husband and two children for a two-bedroom, single-family home. In November, she said her rent jumped from $2,780 to $3,030 a month — a nearly 9% increase. She also had to pay more toward her security deposit. To make up the cost, she said she would have to miss payments for her gas and electricity bills. \u003cstrong>“\u003c/strong>Devastated,” she said. “Next time I come up here [to Sacramento], I will probably be homeless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/politics/ruling-federal-government-has-no-right-to-california-voters-sensitive-data\">\u003cstrong>Federal Government Has No Right To California Voters’ Sensitive Data, Judge Rules\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A federal judge ruled Thursday that the Trump administration is not entitled to personal information belonging to California’s 23 million voters.

That includes driver’s license, social security numbers and other sensitive data. DOJ officials said they needed the data to assess whether states were properly maintaining their voter rolls and ensuring “only American citizens are voting, only one time,” as Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said in a \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://x.com/AAGDhillon/status/2002134137088745937?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">social media post\u003c/a> in December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California refused, citing state and federal privacy law.

It would have also made those changes permanent, removing a 2030 sunset date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday marked the bill’s first hearing of the year in the Assembly Judiciary Committee, where tenants and advocates pleaded with committee members to advance the bill. But, it faced stiff opposition from rental property and building trade groups, who said it would make housing construction more expensive and could push smaller landlords out of the market. The bill failed to get enough votes, and without any additional hearings scheduled, AB 1157 will likely die there. “I’m just really, really crushed because they talk about how they don’t want to hurt the property owners, they don’t want to have them take their properties off the market,” said Chula Vista renter Tammy Alvarado, who took a 13-hour bus ride to testify in support of the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, as the 2019 Tenant Protection Act moves closer towards its expiration date, Alvarado and other tenants are worried about what it means for their own housing security. She splits the monthly payment with her husband and two children for a two-bedroom, single-family home. In November, she said her rent jumped from $2,780 to $3,030 a month — a nearly 9% increase. She also had to pay more toward her security deposit. To make up the cost, she said she would have to miss payments for her gas and electricity bills. \u003cstrong>“\u003c/strong>Devastated,” she said. “Next time I come up here [to Sacramento], I will probably be homeless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/politics/ruling-federal-government-has-no-right-to-california-voters-sensitive-data\">\u003cstrong>Federal Government Has No Right To California Voters’ Sensitive Data, Judge Rules\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A federal judge ruled Thursday that the Trump administration is not entitled to personal information belonging to California’s 23 million voters.

Doctors worry more cases are coming amid a “super bloom” of death caps, sparked by early rains and warm temperatures in the fall. “We anticipate that these mushrooms could continue to be fruiting in abundance throughout the rainy season in California,” said Dr. Craig Smollin, medical director of the San Francisco division of the California Poison Control System.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrants from Mexico and China make up a disproportionate number of the cases, as death caps, or \u003cem>Amanita phalloides\u003c/em>, look very similar to edible mushrooms that grow in those countries. The California Department of Public Health released a\u003ca href=\"https://flow.page/poisonousmushroomsafety\"> series of fact sheets and videos\u003c/a> on Wednesday in multiple languages,\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtmNeRXD3Cg\"> including Mixteco\u003c/a>, an indigenous language of Mexico spoken by communities in Monterey County, where the first poisonings emerged in November. Since then, people have been treated in hospitals throughout the Bay Area after eating mushrooms found in the Oakland Hills, Stinson Beach and Pinnacles National Park, among other sites, though Smollin said that they grow along the West Coast and that no part of California is a death cap-free zone. Some dogs have also died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Symptoms of death cap poisoning include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, and can occur 6 to 24 hours after ingestion. Extreme cases can lead to liver failure, necessitating an urgent liver transplant or death. Cooking, boiling or freezing the mushrooms does not inactivate the toxin. “A single bite of the mushroom could cause significant toxicity,” Smollin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local mushroom experts and enthusiasts have bemoaned the state’s messaging around the poisonings as narrow and fear-based. Many would prefer to see an emphasis on education, rather than a prohibition on all foraging, and point out that touching, smelling and looking at mushrooms is safe. “There’s a lot more nuance,” said Debbie Viess, co-founder of the Bay Area Mycological Society. “It’s much more important to steer people to places where they can educate themselves about the safety and the dangers of eating wild mushrooms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12069825/federal-judges-uphold-californias-new-congressional-maps-favoring-democrats\">\u003cstrong>Federal Judges Uphold California’s New Congressional Maps Favoring Democrats\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A three-judge panel ruled Wednesday that the new congressional maps \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12062781/proposition-50-passes-in-california-boosting-democrats-in-fight-for-us-house-control\">created by California voters\u003c/a> in the fall are legal and should remain in place, handing a win to state Democrats who hope the new districts will swing five congressional seats for their party next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling denies a request by California Republicans and the Trump administration for the federal court in Los Angeles to issue a preliminary injunction blocking the maps \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12064834/how-prop-50-just-rewrote-californias-2026-congressional-map\">created by Proposition 50\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 117-page \u003ca href=\"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.994285/gov.uscourts.cacd.994285.216.0.pdf\">ruling\u003c/a>, the federal judges rejected GOP arguments that the new maps amounted to racial gerrymandering, which has been prohibited by the U.S. Supreme Court. The panel ruled 2-1, with the two Democratic appointees ruling for California and Judge Kenneth K. Lee, who was appointed by President Trump, dissenting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the opinion, Judge Josephine Staton wrote that the panel’s conclusion “probably seems obvious to anyone who followed the news” about Proposition 50 last year.

Doctors worry more cases are coming amid a “super bloom” of death caps, sparked by early rains and warm temperatures in the fall. “We anticipate that these mushrooms could continue to be fruiting in abundance throughout the rainy season in California,” said Dr. Craig Smollin, medical director of the San Francisco division of the California Poison Control System.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrants from Mexico and China make up a disproportionate number of the cases, as death caps, or \u003cem>Amanita phalloides\u003c/em>, look very similar to edible mushrooms that grow in those countries. The California Department of Public Health released a\u003ca href=\"https://flow.page/poisonousmushroomsafety\"> series of fact sheets and videos\u003c/a> on Wednesday in multiple languages,\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtmNeRXD3Cg\"> including Mixteco\u003c/a>, an indigenous language of Mexico spoken by communities in Monterey County, where the first poisonings emerged in November. Since then, people have been treated in hospitals throughout the Bay Area after eating mushrooms found in the Oakland Hills, Stinson Beach and Pinnacles National Park, among other sites, though Smollin said that they grow along the West Coast and that no part of California is a death cap-free zone. Some dogs have also died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Symptoms of death cap poisoning include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, and can occur 6 to 24 hours after ingestion. Extreme cases can lead to liver failure, necessitating an urgent liver transplant or death. Cooking, boiling or freezing the mushrooms does not inactivate the toxin. “A single bite of the mushroom could cause significant toxicity,” Smollin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Many would prefer to see an emphasis on education, rather than a prohibition on all foraging, and point out that touching, smelling and looking at mushrooms is safe. “There’s a lot more nuance,” said Debbie Viess, co-founder of the Bay Area Mycological Society. “It’s much more important to steer people to places where they can educate themselves about the safety and the dangers of eating wild mushrooms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12069825/federal-judges-uphold-californias-new-congressional-maps-favoring-democrats\">\u003cstrong>Federal Judges Uphold California’s New Congressional Maps Favoring Democrats\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A three-judge panel ruled Wednesday that the new congressional maps \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12062781/proposition-50-passes-in-california-boosting-democrats-in-fight-for-us-house-control\">created by California voters\u003c/a> in the fall are legal and should remain in place, handing a win to state Democrats who hope the new districts will swing five congressional seats for their party next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling denies a request by California Republicans and the Trump administration for the federal court in Los Angeles to issue a preliminary injunction blocking the maps \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12064834/how-prop-50-just-rewrote-californias-2026-congressional-map\">created by Proposition 50\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 117-page \u003ca href=\"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.994285/gov.uscourts.cacd.994285.216.0.pdf\">ruling\u003c/a>, the federal judges rejected GOP arguments that the new maps amounted to racial gerrymandering, which has been prohibited by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Ro Khanna described what he called the “systemic neglect” of more than 900 people currently held at the California City Detention Facility, a private prison in the Mojave Desert, which opened in late August under a contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “We’re treating these people like animals, not like human beings … It’s an embarrassment for the country,” he told KQED. “Whatever you think about the consequences for people who are undocumented, we should all agree that you treat people with dignity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khanna’s visit comes at a time when ICE is locking up more people than ever in its history — roughly 69,000 as of late December — as the Trump administration continues its massive ramp-up in immigration enforcement as part of an aggressive campaign to deport millions of non-citizens. Advocates have raised alarms over poor conditions in ICE detention as the number of in-custody deaths\u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2026/jan/04/ice-2025-deaths-timeline\"> surged\u003c/a> to its highest level in more than 20 years, with 32 people dying in 2025.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Congress has a legal right to inspect immigration detention centers, even unannounced. But over the past year, ICE has repeatedly denied access to politicians who have tried to exercise their power of oversight. Last July, several House \u003ca href=\"https://www.texasobserver.org/dems-congress-ice-detention-oversight-lawsuit/\">Democrats sued\u003c/a> the Trump administration after ICE issued a policy requiring seven days advance notice to schedule a visit.

His office first reached out to ICE on Dec. 4 to set up the visit, which took place Jan. 5, a staff member said. Khanna said he and an aide spent about three hours there, and took an official tour of the facility — which is set to become ICE’s largest in the state, with capacity for nearly 26,000 detainees. Khanna was reportedly told there were 1,428 detainees, including 215 women. The most recently available ICE data available, from Dec. 26, shows 922 detainees — although that number could have increased over the past two weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawmaker said he also had two group sessions where he was able to talk with 47 detained people who had signed up to meet him. No prison staff was present in the meetings, he said. “During the tour, [the warden and other prison officials] were showing us they were going by the book, and they took standards really seriously,” he said. “Then when we met the detainees, I was just floored.” Khanna said he spoke with a man who said he had blood in his urine and was still waiting for medical care after seven days. He said people described rocks in their food, undrinkable water, punishing lockdowns four times a day and no-contact visits with family members. “It was really dehumanizing, and many of them were in tears,” he said. “Some of them had been in this country for over a decade, paying taxes, and they’re just shocked that they had been sent to this facility.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Stockton Mass Shooting Survivors Call On Lawmakers To Allocate Funds For Community Healing\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Patrick Peterson was one of several people affected by gun violence in Stockton rallying at the state capitol Tuesday in support for adequate funding for crime victims.

I’m torn apart. My son is gone and he’s never coming back,” Peterson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Governor Gavin Newsom’s budget proposal includes nearly $200 million in new investments towards crime prevention. But advocates point out that no new ongoing funding for survivors was allocated. Tanish Hollins is with the non-profit Californians for Safety and Justice. “Despite clear evidence that when survivors receive the immediate help that they need with relocation, transportation, and basic needs, they are more likely to cooperate with investigations that actually help solve crimes,” Hollins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers last year approved $100 million in one-time funding, but survivors say that money is temporary and doesn’t meet the need. They’re asking funds be allocated towards free mental health services for children affected by gun violence, bring back flexible cash assistance to pay for funerals and healthcare and continue funding trauma recovery centers.\u003c/p>\n\n",

His office first reached out to ICE on Dec. 4 to set up the visit, which took place Jan. 5, a staff member said. Khanna said he and an aide spent about three hours there, and took an official tour of the facility — which is set to become ICE’s largest in the state, with capacity for nearly 26,000 detainees. Khanna was reportedly told there were 1,428 detainees, including 215 women. The most recently available ICE data available, from Dec. 26, shows 922 detainees — although that number could have increased over the past two weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawmaker said he also had two group sessions where he was able to talk with 47 detained people who had signed up to meet him. No prison staff was present in the meetings, he said. “During the tour, [the warden and other prison officials] were showing us they were going by the book, and they took standards really seriously,” he said. “Then when we met the detainees, I was just floored.” Khanna said he spoke with a man who said he had blood in his urine and was still waiting for medical care after seven days. He said people described rocks in their food, undrinkable water, punishing lockdowns four times a day and no-contact visits with family members. “It was really dehumanizing, and many of them were in tears,” he said. “Some of them had been in this country for over a decade, paying taxes, and they’re just shocked that they had been sent to this facility.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Stockton Mass Shooting Survivors Call On Lawmakers To Allocate Funds For Community Healing\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Patrick Peterson was one of several people affected by gun violence in Stockton rallying at the state capitol Tuesday in support for adequate funding for crime victims. His 14-year-old son Amari was one of three children and an adult killed in \u003ca href=\"https://www.capradio.org/articles/2025/12/01/investigators-urge-witnesses-of-the-deadly-shooting-at-a-childs-party-in-stockton-to-come-forward/\">a mass shooting in November\u003c/a> at a 2-year-old’s birthday party. 13 others were wounded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m appalled, I’m distraught. I’m torn apart. My son is gone and he’s never coming back,” Peterson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Governor Gavin Newsom’s budget proposal includes nearly $200 million in new investments towards crime prevention. But advocates point out that no new ongoing funding for survivors was allocated. Tanish Hollins is with the non-profit Californians for Safety and Justice. “Despite clear evidence that when survivors receive the immediate help that they need with relocation, transportation, and basic needs, they are more likely to cooperate with investigations that actually help solve crimes,” Hollins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers last year approved $100 million in one-time funding, but survivors say that money is temporary and doesn’t meet the need. They’re asking funds be allocated towards free mental health services for children affected by gun violence, bring back flexible cash assistance to pay for funerals and healthcare and continue funding trauma recovery centers.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Newsom mounted a defense of his record on homelessness and climate leadership, while advancing proposals to crack down on corporate homeownership and reform how the state’s education system is governed.

We have found a way to build the future, over and over,” Newsom said in a fiery opening to his speech. “But today, that spirit is being tested. We face an assault on our values unlike anything I have seen in my lifetime.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Newsom mounted a defense of his record on homelessness and climate leadership, while advancing proposals to crack down on corporate homeownership and reform how the state’s education system is governed. He cited a huge growth in revenues — more than $40 billion higher than forecast last year — and touted California’s progressive tax system, which relies far more on top earners than many other states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among his specific proposals, Newsom called for new laws to make it harder for private equity firms and other large investors to snap up huge numbers of properties, saying it is driving up housing prices and moving homeownership out of reach. And, he said the state should implement long-talked-about reforms to its education system, moving the Department of Education into the executive branch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of an expected run for president in 2028, Newsom continued his sharp criticism of President Donald Trump, calling the federal government “unrecognizable” and corrupt. “For 175 years, California has been a marvel of invention and reinvention, disaster and recovery, grit and ingenuity. We have found a way to build the future, over and over,” Newsom said in a fiery opening to his speech. “But today, that spirit is being tested. We face an assault on our values unlike anything I have seen in my lifetime.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

While the vast majority of displaced Venezuelans are elsewhere in Latin America, roughly 10% live in the U.S., often after traveling dangerous overland routes. The Biden administration offered them certain humanitarian protections, which the Trump administration has since withdrawn, leaving hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans vulnerable to deportation. Several thousand are estimated to live in the Bay Area; Florida, on the other hand, is home to nearly half of the Venezuelans in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Privacy advocate Brian Hofer calls many local approaches “performative,” arguing that city councils and city attorneys frequently approve surveillance programs without providing effective oversight. His concerns echo findings by the California \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-advises-california-law-enforcement-legal-uses-and\">Attorney General’s office\u003c/a> two years ago, after a state audit found “the majority of California law enforcement agencies collect and use images captured by ALPR cameras, but few have appropriate usage and privacy policies in place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if they do, federal laws supersede state laws. “If we get a federal court warrant, we’re still going to have to respond to it. We’re gonna still have to turn over the data,” Hofer said. “That’s why privacy folks like me are, like, don’t collect the data in the first place.
