His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

The guide — which has been viewed or downloaded more than 2 million times, according to the organization — also offers a supplemental section on how to demand copies of Trump’s tax returns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is Trump colluding with Russia or enriching himself off the presidency? … Until we see Trump’s tax returns, we cannot be certain that foreign governments don’t have leverage over Trump that can be used to influence American policy,” says \u003ca href=\"https://www.indivisibleguide.com/resource/get-trumps-tax-returns/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the supplement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”ZqGfaqQmmLy4W6hycS06PTTc5V9AfMl3″]Yet this progressive political organization — which is founded and staffed by former congressional staffers — has not disclosed where its money is coming from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The California Report\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> requested financial statements and donor lists for the group. Indivisible spokespeople told us they’ve raised more than $2.2 million from 30,000 individual donations since they started accepting donations in January, including “some foundation money and dollars from high net worth individuals.” They declined repeated requests to name any of these individuals.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Nonprofit organizations often cite privacy concerns as a reason to not disclose their donor lists, and Indivisible says it is no different. Angel Padilla, a former Democratic congressional staffer and one of the founders of Indivisible, said those privacy concerns are the only thing stopping Indivisible from releasing the names of its donors.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sarah Bryner, research director for the \u003ca href=\"https://www.opensecrets.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Center for Responsive Politics\u003c/a>, a nonprofit that tracks money in politics, said Indivisible has no legal obligation to disclose its donors if it doesn’t run election ads supporting or opposing a particular candidate.

It was his group’s message — lower taxes and less government regulation — that resonated with voters and got them engaged, according to Budowich, as opposed to any specific tactics.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He is open, though, to the possibility that Indivisible could succeed like the Tea Party has and said it’s doing a good job of knocking on doors, protesting town halls and raising money.

It was his group’s message — lower taxes and less government regulation — that resonated with voters and got them engaged, according to Budowich, as opposed to any specific tactics.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He is open, though, to the possibility that Indivisible could succeed like the Tea Party has and said it’s doing a good job of knocking on doors, protesting town halls and raising money. But he argues its ties to the Democratic Party establishment make it fundamentally different from the Tea Party.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“We control literally every branch of government, and we’ve redefined what the Republican Party is,” said Budowich, of the Tea Party. “So, in many ways, this grass-roots movement has co-opted an institution.

It might not totally unfurl this evening, but its stench — which has been likened to rotting flesh — will be the strongest tonight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The conservatory will be open until 9 p.m., with the last entry at 8:30 p.m, to accommodate visitors to Terra, and will reopen at 10 a.m. Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s happening,” said its Facebook post. “Smell you soon.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plant will reek for only a few days, but its collapse will also be something to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original post, June 13:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is no prouder parent than Sidney Price. On Monday morning, he savored a private visit with his “baby” at the \u003ca href=\"http://conservatoryofflowers.org/\">San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I always thought she’d be an early bloomer,” said Price, as he gazed at Terra the Titan, a 9-year-old corpse flower poised to unleash an overpowering stench that has been compared to decaying animal flesh, filthy socks, rotting garbage and human feces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it doesn’t repel people. Quite the contrary. When a corpse flower blooms, it is always a botanical blockbuster, drawing thousands of people who can’t get enough of its putrid smell and unearthly beauty. The last time this rare event occurred at the conservatory was in 2005, drawing about 16,000 visitors in four days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbKOVv5GII0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The largest unbranched inflorescence — or flowering structure — in the plant world, the corpse flower is also known as an \u003cem>Amorphophallus titanum\u003c/em> (giant misshapen penis) or \u003ca href=\"https://www.chicagobotanic.org/titan/about\">Titan Arum.\u003c/a> When one bloomed at the \u003ca href=\"http://botanicalgarden.berkeley.edu/\">UC Botanical Garden\u003c/a> in Berkeley in 2010, Price witnessed the phenomenon at its olfactory peak, which is usually no more than 48 hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was love at first sight,” recalled Price. “I’d never seen something so beautiful and that smelled so much. It was huuuuuge, as our president would say.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The odor reminded him of roadkill. “It smelled like dead possum,” Price said. “It was pretty pungent and intense. I grew up in Arkansas, so I know what dead possum smells like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though he lives in a small apartment in San Francisco’s Mission District, Price \u003cem>had\u003c/em> to have a corpse flower of his own. He bought a pot with two small plants at the shop in the botanical garden. The sprouts, the offspring of Trudy and Titania, had been propagated at UC a year and a half earlier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were sickly-looking, spindly and yellowish,” said the 64-year-old Price, a retired IT worker. “But I wanted one because they’re getting destroyed in their native habitat in Indonesia.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He placed them in his kitchen window, but the northern exposure wasn’t kind. Two months later, Price moved them to his bathroom, where bright sunlight transformed them from wimps into amazons, and a third sibling emerged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shower mist didn’t hurt either. “I’m very clean,” Price said. “I take a shower in the morning and another in the evening.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plants’ rampant growth began to resemble something out of a science-fiction movie. Price was thrilled but stunned, as he watched Terra overtake his bathroom. He also fretted about the consequences of an untimely bloom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was worried I’d be away on a trip and somebody would call the police and tear down my door because they thought a dead body was inside,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, when one of the gigantic leaves reached 7 feet, he realized it was time to say goodbye. One day in 2014, he called the Conservatory of Flowers. Three years later, Terra is poised to become its first permanent corpse flower to bloom — its 2005 predecessor was borrowed from UC Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11508296\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11508296\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Visitors take advantage of a rare open Monday at the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers on June 12, 2017.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/terra2-conservatory-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Visitors take advantage of a rare open Monday at the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers on June 12, 2017. \u003ccite>(Patricia Yollin/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>When Price visited Terra on Monday, he noted that he’s 5-foot-8 and the plant’s phalluslike spadix is just under 6 feet, and rising. He still can’t believe it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mothered this plant,” he said. “I just wanted it to survive so badly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price knows a thing or two about survival. The Ozark Mountains native moved to San Francisco in 1975 during its gay heyday — “Harvey Milk even hit on me” — and retired in 1996 when he was diagnosed with AIDS. But his timing was good: A new class of drugs kept him alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was like all the conditions came together for my survival,” he said. “And later, for the plants.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Price refers to Terra as a she, he’s well aware that the plant is a hermaphrodite, with male and female flowers. “It’s perfect for gay pride month,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terra produced its first-ever bud on May 1, and is growing 1 to 3 inches a day. The flowers reside out of sight in the base of the spadix, which looks like a baguette and is encircled by a spathe that resembles a ruffled, pleated skirt and will turn the color of red meat when it unfurls. The odor and color lure pollinators in the form of carrion beetles and flies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s total deception on the plant’s part,” said Lizzie Roeble, education coordinator at the conservatory. “We are ecstatic. We can’t talk or think about anything else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Janet Spellmann, a nursery specialist at the conservatory, helped relocate Price’s plants from their bathroom habitat to their tropical oasis in the Richmond district, where Terra is about to attain superstar status. “Now it needs to be wet all the time,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within days, or even hours, it will likely bloom, but Titan Arums are “notoriously unpredictable,” according to Roeble. Terra’s celebrity will be short-lived — just a few days — before it goes limp and collapses into total anonymity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11508300\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 320px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11508300\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-160x284.jpg\" alt=\"The Titan Arum plants that Sidney Price purchased as sprouts eventually outgrew the bathroom of his Mission District apartment.\" width=\"320\" height=\"569\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-160x284.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-240x427.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-375x667.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-520x924.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Titan Arum plants that Sidney Price purchased as sprouts eventually outgrew the bathroom of his Mission District apartment. \u003ccite>(Sidney Price)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Titan Arums grow on the hillsides of Sumatran rainforests, and “corpse flower” is the translation of its Indonesian name, \u003cem>bunga bangkai\u003c/em>.

She hopes that the hordes who descend on Terra will learn a bit about the plight of its relatives in the wild, as they sniff and marvel and recoil and take selfies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The conservatory is extending its hours for Terra’s coming-out party. It is usually closed on Mondays, but it opened at noon on June 12 so that people could visit the Titan Arum as it inched ever closer to blooming.

He still can’t believe it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mothered this plant,” he said. “I just wanted it to survive so badly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price knows a thing or two about survival. The Ozark Mountains native moved to San Francisco in 1975 during its gay heyday — “Harvey Milk even hit on me” — and retired in 1996 when he was diagnosed with AIDS. But his timing was good: A new class of drugs kept him alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was like all the conditions came together for my survival,” he said. “And later, for the plants.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Price refers to Terra as a she, he’s well aware that the plant is a hermaphrodite, with male and female flowers. “It’s perfect for gay pride month,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terra produced its first-ever bud on May 1, and is growing 1 to 3 inches a day. The flowers reside out of sight in the base of the spadix, which looks like a baguette and is encircled by a spathe that resembles a ruffled, pleated skirt and will turn the color of red meat when it unfurls. The odor and color lure pollinators in the form of carrion beetles and flies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s total deception on the plant’s part,” said Lizzie Roeble, education coordinator at the conservatory. “We are ecstatic. We can’t talk or think about anything else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Janet Spellmann, a nursery specialist at the conservatory, helped relocate Price’s plants from their bathroom habitat to their tropical oasis in the Richmond district, where Terra is about to attain superstar status. “Now it needs to be wet all the time,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within days, or even hours, it will likely bloom, but Titan Arums are “notoriously unpredictable,” according to Roeble. Terra’s celebrity will be short-lived — just a few days — before it goes limp and collapses into total anonymity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11508300\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 320px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11508300\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-160x284.jpg\" alt=\"The Titan Arum plants that Sidney Price purchased as sprouts eventually outgrew the bathroom of his Mission District apartment.\" width=\"320\" height=\"569\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-160x284.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-240x427.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-375x667.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom-520x924.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Titaninbathroom.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Titan Arum plants that Sidney Price purchased as sprouts eventually outgrew the bathroom of his Mission District apartment. \u003ccite>(Sidney Price)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Titan Arums grow on the hillsides of Sumatran rainforests, and “corpse flower” is the translation of its Indonesian name, \u003cem>bunga bangkai\u003c/em>. They’re vulnerable because their habitats are being wiped out by agricultural production and timber logging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It makes me incredibly sad,” Price said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roeble agreed. She hopes that the hordes who descend on Terra will learn a bit about the plight of its relatives in the wild, as they sniff and marvel and recoil and take selfies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The conservatory is extending its hours for Terra’s coming-out party. It is usually closed on Mondays, but it opened at noon on June 12 so that people could visit the Titan Arum as it inched ever closer to blooming.

It’s body snatchers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One woman seemed to think the entire pollination process would be on display.

Feinstein seemed miffed but resigned by his refusal to answer most of her questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein and Harris were the only California lawmakers in the room, but Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu, who’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.cosmopolitan.com/politics/a9957538/ted-lieu-trump-twitter-interview/\">made headlines for his pull-no-punches Twitter feed\u003c/a>, was clearly watching.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/tedlieu/status/874722860945858561\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Rep.

Both houses of the Legislature wanted nearly a billion dollars of the new revenue to be directed toward reimbursement boosts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"When we impose taxes on the populace of California, I think we’re obligated to spend those taxes for the purposes that we represent to the public,\" said Assembly Budget Vice Chair Jay Obernolte (R-Hesperia). \"\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was very much the legislature versus the administration on this.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The final deal will provide $546 million to reimbursements, with increases for doctors, dentists, family planning providers and providers serving the developmentally disabled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One important caveat: The rate increases are contingent upon approval from the federal government. Republicans in Congress have been supportive of reimbursement rate increases for doctors, but may not be as likely to approve a waiver for a $50 million increase in rates for women's health service providers like Planned Parenthood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I had a Magic 8 Ball to guess what the Trump administration would do, then we could plan our budget that way,\" said Assembly Budget chair Phil Ting (D-San Francisco). \"But we can't live life that way.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers were on a tight timeline to approve a final budget deal. Proposition 54, passed in November, requires legislation (including the budget) be in print for 72 hours before a final vote is taken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the language unveiled on Tuesday was \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/09/california-lawmakers-make-progress-on-budget-but-issues-remain/\">agreed upon in conference committee\u003c/a> last week, while later deals were worked out on issues that included tobacco tax spending.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Funding Increases for Child Care, Tax Credits\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Democratic gains in the budget agreement were paved by a compromise with Governor Jerry Brown on projected state revenues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget for the upcoming fiscal year sticks to the Governor’s more conservative estimate of next year's revenues, but adopts the legislature’s projections of a larger property tax windfall. These dollars help cover a larger portion of required school funding, thereby \u003ca href=\"http://calbudgetcenter.org/blog/increases-local-property-tax-revenues-help-states-general-fund/\">freeing up\u003c/a> other general fund money for new spending priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The revenue projections opened the door for legislative Democrats to fund eligibility expansions for child care subsidies and the state's \u003ca href=\"http://audio.californiareport.org/archive/R201706020850/e\">earned income tax credit.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tax credit will now cover Californians living off of a minimum-wage, and those who are self-employed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"By expanding the CalEITC, state policymakers will help more hard-working Californians to afford the basics and advance economically,\" said Chris Hoene, executive director of the nonpartisan California Budget & Policy Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Housing, Cap and Trade Left Unaddressed\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The budget deal was silent on new revenues to address California's affordable housing crisis, as well as plans to extend the state's cap-and-trade program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An Assembly proposal to spend $400 million on affordable housing, originally proposed by Brown, was killed in budget committee last week. Speaker Anthony Rendon called that sum \"somewhat anemic\" and said the Assembly would continue to address housing in policy bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"We do need a continuous source of funding,\" he added. \"I think that’s a much better alternative than just having money come out of the budget anyway.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Brown had hoped to extend the state's cap-and-trade program with a two-thirds vote this month, as it nears a 2020 expiration date. The marketplace system allows businesses to buy and sell credits to pollute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It doesn’t necessarily have to get done this year, but the conversations are occurring as we speak,\" said Rendon. \"The conversations are still in the nascent stages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement praising the legislative unity around the budget deal, Brown said he is \"confident that we can do the same to extend our critical cap-and-trade program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But later on Tuesday, the Governor showed less faith that he could rely on getting nearly all Democrats to support a plan, which would be necessary for a supermajority approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking about an extension at an international gathering focused on climate change policy, he said “I’m very confident that the key to that objective is Republicans.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

Both houses of the Legislature wanted nearly a billion dollars of the new revenue to be directed toward reimbursement boosts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"When we impose taxes on the populace of California, I think we’re obligated to spend those taxes for the purposes that we represent to the public,\" said Assembly Budget Vice Chair Jay Obernolte (R-Hesperia). \"\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was very much the legislature versus the administration on this.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The final deal will provide $546 million to reimbursements, with increases for doctors, dentists, family planning providers and providers serving the developmentally disabled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One important caveat: The rate increases are contingent upon approval from the federal government. Republicans in Congress have been supportive of reimbursement rate increases for doctors, but may not be as likely to approve a waiver for a $50 million increase in rates for women's health service providers like Planned Parenthood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I had a Magic 8 Ball to guess what the Trump administration would do, then we could plan our budget that way,\" said Assembly Budget chair Phil Ting (D-San Francisco). \"But we can't live life that way.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers were on a tight timeline to approve a final budget deal. Proposition 54, passed in November, requires legislation (including the budget) be in print for 72 hours before a final vote is taken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the language unveiled on Tuesday was \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/09/california-lawmakers-make-progress-on-budget-but-issues-remain/\">agreed upon in conference committee\u003c/a> last week, while later deals were worked out on issues that included tobacco tax spending.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Funding Increases for Child Care, Tax Credits\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Democratic gains in the budget agreement were paved by a compromise with Governor Jerry Brown on projected state revenues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget for the upcoming fiscal year sticks to the Governor’s more conservative estimate of next year's revenues, but adopts the legislature’s projections of a larger property tax windfall. These dollars help cover a larger portion of required school funding, thereby \u003ca href=\"http://calbudgetcenter.org/blog/increases-local-property-tax-revenues-help-states-general-fund/\">freeing up\u003c/a> other general fund money for new spending priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The revenue projections opened the door for legislative Democrats to fund eligibility expansions for child care subsidies and the state's \u003ca href=\"http://audio.californiareport.org/archive/R201706020850/e\">earned income tax credit.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tax credit will now cover Californians living off of a minimum-wage, and those who are self-employed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"By expanding the CalEITC, state policymakers will help more hard-working Californians to afford the basics and advance economically,\" said Chris Hoene, executive director of the nonpartisan California Budget & Policy Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Housing, Cap and Trade Left Unaddressed\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The budget deal was silent on new revenues to address California's affordable housing crisis, as well as plans to extend the state's cap-and-trade program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An Assembly proposal to spend $400 million on affordable housing, originally proposed by Brown, was killed in budget committee last week. Speaker Anthony Rendon called that sum \"somewhat anemic\" and said the Assembly would continue to address housing in policy bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"We do need a continuous source of funding,\" he added. \"I think that’s a much better alternative than just having money come out of the budget anyway.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Brown had hoped to extend the state's cap-and-trade program with a two-thirds vote this month, as it nears a 2020 expiration date. The marketplace system allows businesses to buy and sell credits to pollute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It doesn’t necessarily have to get done this year, but the conversations are occurring as we speak,\" said Rendon. \"The conversations are still in the nascent stages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement praising the legislative unity around the budget deal, Brown said he is \"confident that we can do the same to extend our critical cap-and-trade program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But later on Tuesday, the Governor showed less faith that he could rely on getting nearly all Democrats to support a plan, which would be necessary for a supermajority approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking about an extension at an international gathering focused on climate change policy, he said “I’m very confident that the key to that objective is Republicans.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
