Who’s to blame?\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California is already home to the nation’s highest prices at the pump. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And since the start of the war in Iran, we’ve been getting hit especially hard. 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. Operator Sable Offshore Inc. \u003ca href=\"https://sableoffshore.com/news/news-details/2026/Sable-Resumes-Oil-Flow-as-Ordered-by-the-Federal-DPA-with-Expected-Gross-Oil-Rate-of-50000-Bblsd-and-Expects-First-Sales-by-April-1-2026/default.aspx\">restarted oil flow this past weekend. \u003c/a>The pipeline had been offline since 2015, when a corroded portion of it burst, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/05/20/408176115/oil-spill-off-california-coast-fouls-4-miles-of-coastline\">causing more than 140,000 gallons of crude oil\u003c/a> to spill into the water and onto beaches in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rising gas prices have also led to renewed scrutiny on California’s signature climate program — called “cap and invest” — that charges carbon polluters like oil refineries, adding about 25 cents a gallon to the cost of gas. 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. He’s also calling on the state to suspend its gas tax. “To provide relief to people who are having to choose between paying the rent, putting food on the table, and filling up their car to get to work,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meredith Fowlie, at the Haas Energy Institute, says those moves would come with tradeoffs. “Yes, we need to be concerned about cost impacts,” she said. “I completely agree, but some of those cost impacts are generating revenues that are being used for other purposes.” The state’s gas tax, for example, funds road repair and public transit. And the cap-and-invest program raises billions of dollars every year, which Fowlie said go “to households, to industry, and to investments we need to make from wildfire risk mitigation to public transportation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Veterans express concerns about Trump nominee\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Veterans are calling for the protection of public lands in the Mojave Desert.

But veterans, together with native and environmental groups, say those benefits are now at risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steve Pearce, President Trump’s nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management, said at his confirmation hearing that he plans to consult stakeholders on protecting the Chuckwalla National Monument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Janessa Goldbeck, with the Vet Voice Foundation, said she’s skeptical. “He has said over and over again that he believes public lands should be sold off. And if he’s confirmed, he’ll oversee hundreds of millions of public land across the country and hundreds of thousands of acres here in California.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Who’s to blame?\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California is already home to the nation’s highest prices at the pump. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And since the start of the war in Iran, we’ve been getting hit especially hard. 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. Operator Sable Offshore Inc. \u003ca href=\"https://sableoffshore.com/news/news-details/2026/Sable-Resumes-Oil-Flow-as-Ordered-by-the-Federal-DPA-with-Expected-Gross-Oil-Rate-of-50000-Bblsd-and-Expects-First-Sales-by-April-1-2026/default.aspx\">restarted oil flow this past weekend. \u003c/a>The pipeline had been offline since 2015, when a corroded portion of it burst, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/05/20/408176115/oil-spill-off-california-coast-fouls-4-miles-of-coastline\">causing more than 140,000 gallons of crude oil\u003c/a> to spill into the water and onto beaches in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rising gas prices have also led to renewed scrutiny on California’s signature climate program — called “cap and invest” — that charges carbon polluters like oil refineries, adding about 25 cents a gallon to the cost of gas. 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. He’s also calling on the state to suspend its gas tax. “To provide relief to people who are having to choose between paying the rent, putting food on the table, and filling up their car to get to work,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meredith Fowlie, at the Haas Energy Institute, says those moves would come with tradeoffs. “Yes, we need to be concerned about cost impacts,” she said. “I completely agree, but some of those cost impacts are generating revenues that are being used for other purposes.” The state’s gas tax, for example, funds road repair and public transit. And the cap-and-invest program raises billions of dollars every year, which Fowlie said go “to households, to industry, and to investments we need to make from wildfire risk mitigation to public transportation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Veterans express concerns about Trump nominee\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Veterans are calling for the protection of public lands in the Mojave Desert.

The men and women pray and eat in separate rooms. In the women’s room, on a Friday evening, mothers calmly asked their excited children to quiet down for prayer. After the prayer, worshippers broke the fast with a light snack of dates and samosas. Pebble Beach resident Seynabou Seck said going twelve hours without food is always a chance for self-reflection. “ I feel like there’s almost a cleansing aspect,” Seck said. “It’s not just not eating and not drinking, but I haven’t been watching reality TV, which is usually my guilty pleasure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, it’s not only spiritual. The communal gathering this evening also brings a bit of nostalgia for Seck, who is from Senegal.\u003ci> \u003c/i>At home, she says, “it’s very community-driven. We eat and gather often.” After the snacks, worshippers stand in line to get their iftar dinner. Every Friday and Saturday, various groups like Indonesians and Moroccans take turns to cook a feast for the worshippers.

The men and women pray and eat in separate rooms. In the women’s room, on a Friday evening, mothers calmly asked their excited children to quiet down for prayer. After the prayer, worshippers broke the fast with a light snack of dates and samosas. Pebble Beach resident Seynabou Seck said going twelve hours without food is always a chance for self-reflection. “ I feel like there’s almost a cleansing aspect,” Seck said. “It’s not just not eating and not drinking, but I haven’t been watching reality TV, which is usually my guilty pleasure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, it’s not only spiritual. The communal gathering this evening also brings a bit of nostalgia for Seck, who is from Senegal.\u003ci> \u003c/i>At home, she says, “it’s very community-driven. We eat and gather often.” After the snacks, worshippers stand in line to get their iftar dinner. Every Friday and Saturday, various groups like Indonesians and Moroccans take turns to cook a feast for the worshippers. Tonight, it was the Afghan community’s turn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As people settle to eat, high school student Tana Haddid shared what breaking the fast with others means for her. ”Something that I really appreciate is how all of our cultures mix really well.

That ballot measure set aside billions of dollars to add more mental health and addiction treatment beds across the state. But \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/homelessness/2026/03/prop-1-update/\">new reporting from our California newsroom partner, CalMatters\u003c/a>, has found the initiative hasn’t delivered a fraction of the support it promised.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It’s not just gas prices rising. The attacks on Iran are also causing fertilizer prices to surge by about 30%, just as the spring planting season gets underway in California. But some farmers here have been adopting techniques that aren’t just resilient to climate change, but also to the supply chain disruption of war.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Governor Gavin Newsom says his office is \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/iran-california-drones-newsom-trump-82afa326f0b362e0ae96b97e1e6c3d7e\">aware of reports\u003c/a> that Iran considered launching drones to attack unspecified targets in the state.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/homelessness/2026/03/prop-1-update/\">\u003cstrong>10 projects from Newsom’s mental health bond were supposed to open in 2025. That didn’t happen\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>None of the projects expected in 2025 under Gov. Gavin Newsom’s mental health ballot measure have opened, CalMatters has found, even though the governor says the bond is exceeding its goals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom promised that thousands of mental health treatment beds would come out of Proposition 1, a $6.4 billion bond California voters \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2024/03/election-result-proposition-1/\">passed\u003c/a> by a narrow margin in 2024. But projects in the initial round have hit delays, in some cases pushing back opening dates by two years, or been cancelled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/mental-health/2025/06/prop-1-mental-health-awards/\">awarded nearly half\u003c/a> of the money from the bond last spring, kicking off what Newsom described as the fastest distribution of bond funds in California history. When it rolled out that money, the state said it expected 10 of those first 124 projects would be finished by the end of last year. That didn’t happen. CalMatters has confirmed that nine of those projects were delayed, with new completion dates ranging from this summer to summer 2028. One project was cancelled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bond is a cornerstone of Newsom’s broader plan to help Californians living on the street with mental illness, and it’s supposed to provide some of the resources necessary for the governor’s \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/mental-health/2024/02/california-mental-health-history/\">other mental health programs\u003c/a> to succeed. Without the new in-patient beds, out-patient treatment slots and housing promised under Prop. 1, programs \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/homelessness/2025/12/care-court-homeless/\">such as CARE Court\u003c/a>, which uses the courts to get more people into treatment, won’t be as effective. The delays in getting Prop. 1 projects built highlight the difficulty of quickly scaling up treatment options to meet the demand for mental health care in California, as well as the challenges of building anything in the state’s expensive and highly competitive real estate market. They also mean some of the state’s most vulnerable residents will have to wait longer for help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration tried to fast-track Prop. 1 projects by smoothing some permitting and other hurdles, Newsom said during a news conference Wednesday. But he admitted there have been snags. “Some of that has been impacted by, candidly, tariffs, supply chain issues,” he said. “So there’s been some slippage in some of the projects. We’re deeply mindful and aware of that, but we’re just managing that on a daily basis.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom this week \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2026/03/11/ahead-of-schedule-governor-newsoms-prop-1-is-exceeding-goals-to-expand-capacity-and-treatment-statewide-helping-5m-californians/\">awarded the remaining $1.18 billion\u003c/a> from Prop. 1 for new treatment beds and outpatient slots. In all, the bond has funded 177 projects, which are supposed to create 6,919 residential treatment beds (119 more than originally promised) and 27,561 outpatient treatment slots (861 more than promised).

That ballot measure set aside billions of dollars to add more mental health and addiction treatment beds across the state. But \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/homelessness/2026/03/prop-1-update/\">new reporting from our California newsroom partner, CalMatters\u003c/a>, has found the initiative hasn’t delivered a fraction of the support it promised.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It’s not just gas prices rising. The attacks on Iran are also causing fertilizer prices to surge by about 30%, just as the spring planting season gets underway in California. But some farmers here have been adopting techniques that aren’t just resilient to climate change, but also to the supply chain disruption of war.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Governor Gavin Newsom says his office is \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/iran-california-drones-newsom-trump-82afa326f0b362e0ae96b97e1e6c3d7e\">aware of reports\u003c/a> that Iran considered launching drones to attack unspecified targets in the state.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/homelessness/2026/03/prop-1-update/\">\u003cstrong>10 projects from Newsom’s mental health bond were supposed to open in 2025. That didn’t happen\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>None of the projects expected in 2025 under Gov. Gavin Newsom’s mental health ballot measure have opened, CalMatters has found, even though the governor says the bond is exceeding its goals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom promised that thousands of mental health treatment beds would come out of Proposition 1, a $6.4 billion bond California voters \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2024/03/election-result-proposition-1/\">passed\u003c/a> by a narrow margin in 2024. But projects in the initial round have hit delays, in some cases pushing back opening dates by two years, or been cancelled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/mental-health/2025/06/prop-1-mental-health-awards/\">awarded nearly half\u003c/a> of the money from the bond last spring, kicking off what Newsom described as the fastest distribution of bond funds in California history. When it rolled out that money, the state said it expected 10 of those first 124 projects would be finished by the end of last year. That didn’t happen. CalMatters has confirmed that nine of those projects were delayed, with new completion dates ranging from this summer to summer 2028. One project was cancelled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bond is a cornerstone of Newsom’s broader plan to help Californians living on the street with mental illness, and it’s supposed to provide some of the resources necessary for the governor’s \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/mental-health/2024/02/california-mental-health-history/\">other mental health programs\u003c/a> to succeed. Without the new in-patient beds, out-patient treatment slots and housing promised under Prop. 1, programs \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/homelessness/2025/12/care-court-homeless/\">such as CARE Court\u003c/a>, which uses the courts to get more people into treatment, won’t be as effective. The delays in getting Prop. 1 projects built highlight the difficulty of quickly scaling up treatment options to meet the demand for mental health care in California, as well as the challenges of building anything in the state’s expensive and highly competitive real estate market. They also mean some of the state’s most vulnerable residents will have to wait longer for help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But he admitted there have been snags. “Some of that has been impacted by, candidly, tariffs, supply chain issues,” he said. “So there’s been some slippage in some of the projects. We’re deeply mindful and aware of that, but we’re just managing that on a daily basis.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom this week \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2026/03/11/ahead-of-schedule-governor-newsoms-prop-1-is-exceeding-goals-to-expand-capacity-and-treatment-statewide-helping-5m-californians/\">awarded the remaining $1.18 billion\u003c/a> from Prop. 1 for new treatment beds and outpatient slots.

They have little control over how much state money they get, and are wary of committing to higher wages and benefits without knowing how they’ll pay for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another financial challenge has been the end of pandemic relief money. California \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2024/03/funding-for-schools/#:~:text=California%20schools%20got%20%2423.4%20billion,issues%20that%20affect%20all%20Californians.\">schools received\u003c/a> more than $23.4 billion in one-time grants intended to help students recover from pandemic-related learning loss. State and federal authorities advised schools to spend the money on temporary tutors, after-school and summer programs and other short-term expenses. But some districts, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-09-22/l-a-teachers-to-receive-5-percent-raise-and-bonuses\">Los Angeles Unified\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://timesofsandiego.com/education/2021/06/27/san-diego-unified-agrees-to-teacher-salary-staffing-increases-to-accelerate-learning/\">San Diego Unified\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kron4.com/news/sf-teachers-could-see-6-raise-in-tentative-new-agreement/\">San Francisco Unified\u003c/a>, used some of their funds to increase teacher pay or hire permanent staff, which they’re now struggling to pay for after the grant money ended.

Lesly Rodriguez Gutierrez, 28, and her two sons, who are 4 and 6 years old, were arrested on Tuesday as she attended a routine asylum check-in appointment in the city, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/nr/ne/yr26/yr26rel11.asp\">state Superintendent Tony Thurmond\u003c/a> said during a news conference on Friday. He said at the time of their detention, the 6-year-old, who is deaf, did not have his hearing aids and remains without access to necessary medical devices. “We are calling for the immediate return of this young man and his family,” Thurmond said. “This is a student who needs access to medical devices, hearing aids, and he needs to be in a program where he can receive support and care — not in some detention center, not in some cell living in squalor and poor conditions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikolas De Bremaeker, an attorney with Centro Legal De La Raza, said that in the days since their arrest, advocates have been trying to locate the family and have been misled about their whereabouts by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials. “We were told at every point that the family was at a different location, and even up to last night when I spoke with ICE, they told me a different location than where they actually were,” he told reporters. “This is no way for a democracy to work. This is a complete obstruction of access to council.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>De Bremaeker said he was able to speak with Rodriguez Gutierrez and confirm that she and her sons were deported to Colombia. Gutierrez migrated to the U.S from Colombia four years ago. She had no criminal record, according to De Bremaeker. De Bremaeker said that when they were arrested, another family member was located outside of the ICE office on 478 Tehama St. in San Francisco with the medical equipment that Rodriguez Gutierrez’s son needed, but was prevented from delivering it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s inhumane, it’s illegal, and it’s unconstitutional for this to happen,” he said Friday, adding that sign language in Colombia is different from the American Sign Language that the young student had been learning here. The child attends the California School for the Deaf in Fremont, and had been home sick on Tuesday. “It’s incredibly cruel to rip a child, as they are thriving and not only using the assistive devices that they need … out of this incredibly brave and strong progress that he has made,” De Bremaeker said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/politics/2026/03/06/desmond-files-to-run-in-congressional-district-held-by-issa\">\u003cstrong>Issa to retire, endorses Desmond to succeed him in 48th Congressional District\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Congressman Darrell Issa (R-Alpine) announced late Friday he will retire at the end of this term. “This decision has been on my mind for a while and I didn’t make it lightly,” Issa said in a statement. “Today I’m announcing my enthusiastic endorsement of Supervisor Jim Desmond for Congress – to represent California’s new 48th district.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier on Friday, San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond withdrew as a candidate from the race for the 49th Congressional District seat. The district is currently held by Democrat Mike Levin, Instead, Desmond began the filing process to run in the 48th District. That seat is currently held by Issa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These last minute changes come following the November passage of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/proposition-50\">Proposition 50,\u003c/a> which redrew California’s congressional district boundaries to be more favorable toward Democratic candidates.\u003c/p>\n\n",

But now the intensity is escalating, she said. “This level of violence is becoming more common and is increasingly embraced as just the routine course of operations,” she said. “High-profile harms to people, where they end up in the hospital, their car window is smashed … that tracks with a new level of political acceptance and encouragement that we’re seeing from the Trump administration.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Lesly Rodriguez Gutierrez, 28, and her two sons, who are 4 and 6 years old, were arrested on Tuesday as she attended a routine asylum check-in appointment in the city, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/nr/ne/yr26/yr26rel11.asp\">state Superintendent Tony Thurmond\u003c/a> said during a news conference on Friday. He said at the time of their detention, the 6-year-old, who is deaf, did not have his hearing aids and remains without access to necessary medical devices. “We are calling for the immediate return of this young man and his family,” Thurmond said. “This is a student who needs access to medical devices, hearing aids, and he needs to be in a program where he can receive support and care — not in some detention center, not in some cell living in squalor and poor conditions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikolas De Bremaeker, an attorney with Centro Legal De La Raza, said that in the days since their arrest, advocates have been trying to locate the family and have been misled about their whereabouts by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials. “We were told at every point that the family was at a different location, and even up to last night when I spoke with ICE, they told me a different location than where they actually were,” he told reporters. “This is no way for a democracy to work. This is a complete obstruction of access to council.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>De Bremaeker said he was able to speak with Rodriguez Gutierrez and confirm that she and her sons were deported to Colombia. Gutierrez migrated to the U.S from Colombia four years ago. She had no criminal record, according to De Bremaeker. De Bremaeker said that when they were arrested, another family member was located outside of the ICE office on 478 Tehama St. in San Francisco with the medical equipment that Rodriguez Gutierrez’s son needed, but was prevented from delivering it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s inhumane, it’s illegal, and it’s unconstitutional for this to happen,” he said Friday, adding that sign language in Colombia is different from the American Sign Language that the young student had been learning here. The child attends the California School for the Deaf in Fremont, and had been home sick on Tuesday. “It’s incredibly cruel to rip a child, as they are thriving and not only using the assistive devices that they need … out of this incredibly brave and strong progress that he has made,” De Bremaeker said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/politics/2026/03/06/desmond-files-to-run-in-congressional-district-held-by-issa\">\u003cstrong>Issa to retire, endorses Desmond to succeed him in 48th Congressional District\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Congressman Darrell Issa (R-Alpine) announced late Friday he will retire at the end of this term. “This decision has been on my mind for a while and I didn’t make it lightly,” Issa said in a statement. “Today I’m announcing my enthusiastic endorsement of Supervisor Jim Desmond for Congress – to represent California’s new 48th district.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier on Friday, San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond withdrew as a candidate from the race for the 49th Congressional District seat.

Robinson said the fire changed all of that, consuming more than two-thirds of Altadena’s tree life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So now, we’re down 30% of what we had, and it’s become fever-pitch important,” Robinson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need the trees for the heat protection, we need the trees for the protection they provided for the fire, we need them for the sense of history and place. I’m determined that we save every last tree we can.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire also destroyed Robinson’s home, just a short walk from the park. But none of that has slowed the group’s efforts on the ground. In recent months, Amigos de los Rios has adopted and is actively rehabilitating over 3,500 damaged trees across some four hundred Altadena properties. Plenty of other local advocates are also fighting to preserve surviving trees and restore those lost in the fire. In times like these, dependable services such as \u003ca href=\"https://fastfirewatchguards.com/oklahoma/tulsa/\">Tulsa Fire Watch Guards\u003c/a> help reinforce safety and vigilance while communities rebuild and recover.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One mile north of Triangle Park, where the concrete gives way to the steep foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, Wynne Wilson surveyed the rugged mix of urban and national forest land.[aside postID=news_12071233 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-003-JB.jpg']“We are literally right at the toe of the mountains, we have bear[s], we have wildlife coming through here,” Wilson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The handsome adobe home she shared with her husband for 30 years used to sit at the back of a roughly half-acre parcel filled with native trees and foliage, much of which withstood the flames. The house, however, did not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wilson has welcomed thousands of people to the property over the years. Some people come to learn about native plants, or to pick up new gardening strategies. Others simply enjoy the property’s serene, park-like setting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the fire, Wilson co-founded a nonprofit called Altadena Green and organized an intervention aimed at stopping the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from removing native trees that were considered “in the way” – or misidentified as dead or dying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We went to meetings at 6:30 in the morning,” Wilson said. “They made it really challenging for us to intervene. But we didn’t stop, and then ultimately we created a following where hundreds of people were ready to march.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kids were going to draw [pictures of] their trees and march with posters of their trees,” she said. “I told [U.S. Army Corps of Engineers] that this is where we’re at, so what are we going to do? How are we going to slow down the destruction of the tree canopy that is left?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effort worked, saving scores of trees which are now being rehydrated and rehabilitated so they can return to their full, pre-fire health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And it’s not just us,” Wilson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s multiple groups working on this, so I really see positive change for the future.

Later this spring, forestry students will conduct an updated field assessment of Altadena’s tree canopy while continuing to sponsor more tree giveaways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also hyper-local, DIY efforts to “regreen” Altadena, plant by plant and seed by seed. After the Eaton Fire tore through Laurie Scott’s West Altadena neighborhood, taking the backyard garden she’d cultivated for years with it, she got the idea for \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/regrow_altadena/\">Regrow Altadena\u003c/a>, a free plant and seed giveaway program that she operates from her front yard in West Altadena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to fix everything, I wanted everything to be fixed. I wanted to make it all to be better, and I knew that I couldn’t,” Scott explained while standing alongside the large plant stand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But I thought that maybe I could make one thing better for some people, so I started picking up bits of succulents that I found and propagating everything that I can get my hands on,” Scott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been so hard for all of us. We all need home. We need comfort. And I’ve heard from a few folks that [a plant] really did make just all the difference.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Robinson said the fire changed all of that, consuming more than two-thirds of Altadena’s tree life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So now, we’re down 30% of what we had, and it’s become fever-pitch important,” Robinson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need the trees for the heat protection, we need the trees for the protection they provided for the fire, we need them for the sense of history and place. I’m determined that we save every last tree we can.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire also destroyed Robinson’s home, just a short walk from the park. But none of that has slowed the group’s efforts on the ground. In recent months, Amigos de los Rios has adopted and is actively rehabilitating over 3,500 damaged trees across some four hundred Altadena properties. Plenty of other local advocates are also fighting to preserve surviving trees and restore those lost in the fire. In times like these, dependable services such as \u003ca href=\"https://fastfirewatchguards.com/oklahoma/tulsa/\">Tulsa Fire Watch Guards\u003c/a> help reinforce safety and vigilance while communities rebuild and recover.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One mile north of Triangle Park, where the concrete gives way to the steep foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, Wynne Wilson surveyed the rugged mix of urban and national forest land.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But we didn’t stop, and then ultimately we created a following where hundreds of people were ready to march.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kids were going to draw [pictures of] their trees and march with posters of their trees,” she said. “I told [U.S. Army Corps of Engineers] that this is where we’re at, so what are we going to do? How are we going to slow down the destruction of the tree canopy that is left?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effort worked, saving scores of trees which are now being rehydrated and rehabilitated so they can return to their full, pre-fire health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And it’s not just us,” Wilson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s multiple groups working on this, so I really see positive change for the future.

Prop 50, which was overwhelmingly approved by California voters last fall, redrew congressional district lines across the state. The move came as Democratic leaders sought to counter political efforts in Texas to redraw congressional maps in favor of Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California’s rural San Joaquin Valley, one of the communities that has landed in a newly configured district is Coalinga. This agricultural town of 17,000 in western Fresno County will now be part of Congressional District 18. The district covers a region that stretches over 100 miles northwest to Gilroy, Salinas, and even San Jose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The town, which is tucked in the western hills of the Valley, is surrounded by oil fields and farmland. It’s the kind of place where people grow up, leave, and then return. It’s also a place where everybody knows everybody. Robert Pimentel, the chancellor of the West Hills Community College District, has lived that life. He calls Coalinga, “a little jewel out here on the west side.” He says Coalinga used to be powered by prisons, a state hospital, and oil fields. Slowly, that’s been changing – just as political representation has. Before Prop 50, Coalinga belonged to Congressional District 13 and was represented by Democratic Congressman Adam Gray. Now under District 18, the town will be represented by Democratic Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren if she is reelected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this politically conservative town, that shift has sparked mixed reactions. In 2024, most voters here supported President Donald Trump. Theresa Dancses says she sees the change as being part of a “tit-for-tat” over redistricting going on nationally, and she worries about losing Republican representation in the process.

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