The moves comes a week after Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to cut grants to local governments that refuse to use local police or resources to enforce U.S. immigration law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's a rundown of the action each jurisdiction took:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Santa Clara County supervisors \u003ca href=\"http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Santa-Clara-County-Considers-Suing-President-Trump-412355773.html\">voted unanimously to move forward\u003c/a> with a lawsuit, similar to San Francisco's, challenging Trump's order to strip sanctuary cities and counties of federal funds.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Oakland \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/12/21/la-county-approves-3m-defense-fund-for-immigrants-facing-deportation/\">joined Los Angeles\u003c/a> and other cities that are putting public funds into deportation defense funds. The City Council \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Oakland-sets-up-300-000-fund-to-fight-10899021.php\">voted to put $300,000 \u003c/a>over the next 18 months \u003ca href=\"///Users/johnmyers/Downloads/View%20Report.pdf\">into a \"rapid response network\" made up of 12 \u003c/a>groups that will help local families facing deportations.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Santa Rosa's City Council voted to explore protecting their immigration population, possibly by becoming a sanctuary city. The vote came after people in favor of expanding immigration protections \u003ca href=\"http://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/6610224-181/santa-rosa-to-consider-sanctuary?artslide=0\">packed the City Council chambers wearing red shirts\u003c/a>. Councilman Ernesto Olivares said he was touched seeing the group, noting he was an immigrant who arrived in the U.S. as a child: \"These people are telling me I am welcome here. Nobody has ever told me that. I mean, it's assumed, but to see it and to see it in the faces of the audience -- the majority of them did not look like me, but yet they cared enough to come to the council to speak for everybody,\" he said. \"And that's what we need to be doing, (asking), 'How do I speak for everyone and not just my own special interests or needs?' \"\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Local officials said they aren't trying to pick a fight with Trump but are acting to keep their communities safe. Oakland officials, for example, noted in a \u003ca href=\"///Users/johnmyers/Downloads/View%20Report.pdf\">report\u003c/a> that more than 25 percent of its residents are immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many such residents won't feel comfortable sending their kids to school, seeking medical care or reporting crimes if they know that local officials are going to ask about their immigration status or turn them over to federal officials, San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his executive order, Trump stated that sanctuary jurisdictions \"willfully violate federal law in an attempt to shield aliens from removal of the United States,” and \"have caused immeasurable harm to the American people and to the very fabric of our republic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the lawsuit he filed, Herrera questioned who was violating federal law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“Obey the rule of law. Abide by the constitution. We are a nation of laws, not of men, right?\" he said. \"You're not an emperor who rules by fiat. We all have to abide by the rule of law and we are going to make that clear.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivares said Santa Rosa intends to defend other classes of citizens — such as LGBT individuals — who could face attack under a Trump presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"The issue is, how are people, residents in our community feeling?\" he asked. \"Are they going to feel safe?\"\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The moves comes a week after Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to cut grants to local governments that refuse to use local police or resources to enforce U.S. immigration law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's a rundown of the action each jurisdiction took:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Santa Clara County supervisors \u003ca href=\"http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Santa-Clara-County-Considers-Suing-President-Trump-412355773.html\">voted unanimously to move forward\u003c/a> with a lawsuit, similar to San Francisco's, challenging Trump's order to strip sanctuary cities and counties of federal funds.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Oakland \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/12/21/la-county-approves-3m-defense-fund-for-immigrants-facing-deportation/\">joined Los Angeles\u003c/a> and other cities that are putting public funds into deportation defense funds. The City Council \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Oakland-sets-up-300-000-fund-to-fight-10899021.php\">voted to put $300,000 \u003c/a>over the next 18 months \u003ca href=\"///Users/johnmyers/Downloads/View%20Report.pdf\">into a \"rapid response network\" made up of 12 \u003c/a>groups that will help local families facing deportations.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Santa Rosa's City Council voted to explore protecting their immigration population, possibly by becoming a sanctuary city. The vote came after people in favor of expanding immigration protections \u003ca href=\"http://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/6610224-181/santa-rosa-to-consider-sanctuary?artslide=0\">packed the City Council chambers wearing red shirts\u003c/a>. Councilman Ernesto Olivares said he was touched seeing the group, noting he was an immigrant who arrived in the U.S. as a child: \"These people are telling me I am welcome here. Nobody has ever told me that. I mean, it's assumed, but to see it and to see it in the faces of the audience -- the majority of them did not look like me, but yet they cared enough to come to the council to speak for everybody,\" he said. \"And that's what we need to be doing, (asking), 'How do I speak for everyone and not just my own special interests or needs?' \"\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Local officials said they aren't trying to pick a fight with Trump but are acting to keep their communities safe. Oakland officials, for example, noted in a \u003ca href=\"///Users/johnmyers/Downloads/View%20Report.pdf\">report\u003c/a> that more than 25 percent of its residents are immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many such residents won't feel comfortable sending their kids to school, seeking medical care or reporting crimes if they know that local officials are going to ask about their immigration status or turn them over to federal officials, San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Four senators who caucus with the Democrats crossed the aisle and joined all of the Republicans in voting for Tillerson. They were Democrats Mark Warner of Virginia, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Joe Manchin of West Virginia, as well as independent Angus King of Maine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, the former head of Exxon Mobil — the world’s largest and most powerful oil company — will now guide American foreign policy and be tasked with enacting Trump’s world view.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That world view, however, isn’t entirely clear. Trump has expressed nationalistic and protectionist views and even isolationist tendencies, but he has also said the U.S. needs to do more about ISIS. He has promised to “bomb the s*** out of them” and suggested it \u003ca href=\"http://www.militarytimes.com/story/military/election/2016/03/10/gop-debate-12-isis-va/81627892/\">could potentially take 30,000\u003c/a> troops to defeat them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”jwqUrI9fE2J8t6xoHQCYNWIbq8TONRXG”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to his \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2017/01/27/511861645/trumps-immigration-freeze-omits-those-linked-to-deadly-attacks-in-u-s\">controversial travel ban \u003c/a>instituted in the first days of his presidency, Trump has ordered the U.S. out of trade deals, threatened import tariffs with America’s adversaries (China) and allies (Mexico), questioned the importance of NATO, praised Russian President Vladimir Putin, said he thinks torture works and, during the campaign, floated the idea (that he \u003ca href=\"http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/nov/14/donald-trump/donald-trump-wrongly-tweets-he-never-said-more-cou/\">later seemed to walk back\u003c/a>) that perhaps more countries should have nuclear weapons to defend themselves without help from the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson will be tasked with defending the United States under Trump around the globe, while walking the line when he disagrees. Tillerson faced tough questioning from Republicans and was almost derailed because of his relationship with Putin. But Tillerson talked tough in those hearings about Russia and, unlike Trump, said he fully believes Russia was responsible for the hacks and leaks of the Democratic emails during the presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, who has no diplomatic experience aside from his myriad international business ties as Exxon Mobil’s chief, will be tasked with overseeing the State Department bureaucracy. He is not well-known in the State Department, but those who have briefed him are sounding fairly upbeat about his management style. As CEO of Exxon Mobil, he oversaw a vast company with employees working in dozens of countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The difference is that Exxon Mobil has one goal: drilling for oil and making money for shareholders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/511851709/511851710\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His job at the State Department may be especially complicated by apparent unrest in the ranks. NPR has reported that some 900 State Department officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/26/511851709/career-diplomats-leave-state-department-as-trump-presidency-begins\">signed a letter \u003c/a>that went viral within the agency decrying Trump’s visa and refugee ban as not making America safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the White House isn’t making the task of internal diplomacy any easier for Tillerson. White House spokesman Sean Spicer on Tuesday urged American diplomats to “get with the program” or go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But dissent is ingrained in State Department culture. In fact, the American Foreign Service Association, the professional association, \u003ca href=\"http://www.afsa.org/constructive-dissent-awards\">gives awards every year for it\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State Department’s manual says there can be no retribution for employees who use the dissent channel, and some in Congress concerned about Spicer’s comments are now looking into ways to codify those protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”XEz0ChQxpUCkwX81sX1ga7j78oebjk2B”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump, though, doesn’t exactly welcome dissent. While the new president is known for surrounding himself with differing factions — and even appeared to encourage his Cabinet nominees to have different points of view in their confirmation hearings — he also fired Acting Attorney General Sally Yates, an Obama holdover at the Justice Department, for speaking out against and refusing to defend the travel ban. And he said he has a “running war with the media.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So much of the media seems to be the opposition party,” Trump said Wednesday, echoing his chief strategist Steve Bannon. He added, “They’re very dishonest people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the State Department, Tillerson will be hearing from diplomats who are worried about where the Trump administration is heading and whether he and Trump will overlook human rights abuses in countries where Americans want to do business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/512799958/512799959\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, the mood in the State Department is uneasy. The Trump administration nudged out several professional diplomats even before naming anyone to replace them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One example is Tom Countryman, a career foreign service officer who was acting undersecretary for arms control. He was on \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/02/01/512799958/outgoing-state-department-official-urges-colleagues-to-stay-and-serve\">NPR’s Morning Edition\u003c/a> Wednesday, where he echoed a very powerful retirement speech he gave Tuesday to the State Department. He noted that State employees proudly serve in both Republican and Democratic administrations and implied they are feeling sidelined now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We still have a duty,” he told the State employees. “You have a duty — to stay and give your best professional guidance, with loyalty, to the new administration, because a foreign policy without professionals is — by definition — an amateur foreign policy. You will help to frame and make the choices. Because that is what we do. Our work is little understood by our fellow Americans, a fact that is sometimes exploited for political purpose. When I have the opportunity to speak to audiences across this amazing land, I explain, ‘We do not have a Department of State, we do not have a foreign policy, because we love foreigners. We do it because we love Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said something that directly relates to Trump (and perhaps even Tillerson). Countryman drew a distinction between business and diplomacy, and he seemed to dispute Trump’s foundational view of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Business made America great, as it always has been,” Countryman said, “and business leaders are among our most important partners. But let’s be clear: Despite the similarities — a dog is not a cat; baseball is not football; and diplomacy is not a business. Human rights are not a business. And democracy is, most assuredly, not a business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, “We want Americans to prosper, to sell the world’s best food and the world’s best products everywhere in the world. We want Americans to be protected and safe when they are abroad, whether they are missionaries, tourists, students, businessmen or (for those of you who have done consular work) the occasional false Messiah.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Trump has expressed nationalistic and protectionist views and even isolationist tendencies, but he has also said the U.S. needs to do more about ISIS. He has promised to “bomb the s*** out of them” and suggested it \u003ca href=\"http://www.militarytimes.com/story/military/election/2016/03/10/gop-debate-12-isis-va/81627892/\">could potentially take 30,000\u003c/a> troops to defeat them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to his \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2017/01/27/511861645/trumps-immigration-freeze-omits-those-linked-to-deadly-attacks-in-u-s\">controversial travel ban \u003c/a>instituted in the first days of his presidency, Trump has ordered the U.S. out of trade deals, threatened import tariffs with America’s adversaries (China) and allies (Mexico), questioned the importance of NATO, praised Russian President Vladimir Putin, said he thinks torture works and, during the campaign, floated the idea (that he \u003ca href=\"http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/nov/14/donald-trump/donald-trump-wrongly-tweets-he-never-said-more-cou/\">later seemed to walk back\u003c/a>) that perhaps more countries should have nuclear weapons to defend themselves without help from the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tillerson faced tough questioning from Republicans and was almost derailed because of his relationship with Putin. But Tillerson talked tough in those hearings about Russia and, unlike Trump, said he fully believes Russia was responsible for the hacks and leaks of the Democratic emails during the presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, who has no diplomatic experience aside from his myriad international business ties as Exxon Mobil’s chief, will be tasked with overseeing the State Department bureaucracy. He is not well-known in the State Department, but those who have briefed him are sounding fairly upbeat about his management style. As CEO of Exxon Mobil, he oversaw a vast company with employees working in dozens of countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The difference is that Exxon Mobil has one goal: drilling for oil and making money for shareholders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/511851709/511851710\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His job at the State Department may be especially complicated by apparent unrest in the ranks. NPR has reported that some 900 State Department officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/26/511851709/career-diplomats-leave-state-department-as-trump-presidency-begins\">signed a letter \u003c/a>that went viral within the agency decrying Trump’s visa and refugee ban as not making America safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the White House isn’t making the task of internal diplomacy any easier for Tillerson. White House spokesman Sean Spicer on Tuesday urged American diplomats to “get with the program” or go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But dissent is ingrained in State Department culture. In fact, the American Foreign Service Association, the professional association, \u003ca href=\"http://www.afsa.org/constructive-dissent-awards\">gives awards every year for it\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State Department’s manual says there can be no retribution for employees who use the dissent channel, and some in Congress concerned about Spicer’s comments are now looking into ways to codify those protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump, though, doesn’t exactly welcome dissent. While the new president is known for surrounding himself with differing factions — and even appeared to encourage his Cabinet nominees to have different points of view in their confirmation hearings — he also fired Acting Attorney General Sally Yates, an Obama holdover at the Justice Department, for speaking out against and refusing to defend the travel ban. And he said he has a “running war with the media.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So much of the media seems to be the opposition party,” Trump said Wednesday, echoing his chief strategist Steve Bannon. He added, “They’re very dishonest people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the State Department, Tillerson will be hearing from diplomats who are worried about where the Trump administration is heading and whether he and Trump will overlook human rights abuses in countries where Americans want to do business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/512799958/512799959\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, the mood in the State Department is uneasy. The Trump administration nudged out several professional diplomats even before naming anyone to replace them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One example is Tom Countryman, a career foreign service officer who was acting undersecretary for arms control. He was on \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/02/01/512799958/outgoing-state-department-official-urges-colleagues-to-stay-and-serve\">NPR’s Morning Edition\u003c/a> Wednesday, where he echoed a very powerful retirement speech he gave Tuesday to the State Department. He noted that State employees proudly serve in both Republican and Democratic administrations and implied they are feeling sidelined now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We still have a duty,” he told the State employees. “You have a duty — to stay and give your best professional guidance, with loyalty, to the new administration, because a foreign policy without professionals is — by definition — an amateur foreign policy. You will help to frame and make the choices. Because that is what we do. Our work is little understood by our fellow Americans, a fact that is sometimes exploited for political purpose. When I have the opportunity to speak to audiences across this amazing land, I explain, ‘We do not have a Department of State, we do not have a foreign policy, because we love foreigners. We do it because we love Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said something that directly relates to Trump (and perhaps even Tillerson). Countryman drew a distinction between business and diplomacy, and he seemed to dispute Trump’s foundational view of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Business made America great, as it always has been,” Countryman said, “and business leaders are among our most important partners. But let’s be clear: Despite the similarities — a dog is not a cat; baseball is not football; and diplomacy is not a business. Human rights are not a business. And democracy is, most assuredly, not a business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, “We want Americans to prosper, to sell the world’s best food and the world’s best products everywhere in the world. We want Americans to be protected and safe when they are abroad, whether they are missionaries, tourists, students, businessmen or (for those of you who have done consular work) the occasional false Messiah.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For the first time this year, they're trying to cover every block, so they’ll know how many homeless people are in each city, even down to the census tract.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roughly 150 guides and more than 400 volunteers have been enlisted in Alameda County, according to Elaine de Coligny, executive director of EveryOne Home, an organization set up by the county to coordinate efforts to stop homelessness. The guides will be conducting surveys over the next two weeks with homeless people to get more information about how they became homeless, how long they’ve been homeless, their health and other issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the last count in 2015, volunteers estimated 4,040 people were homeless -- 2,397 of them without shelter.

It's a strategy some other counties already use, but in past years Alameda County sent volunteers to sites where homeless people get services, and used surveys to estimate how many people are homeless. For the first time this year, they're trying to cover every block, so they’ll know how many homeless people are in each city, even down to the census tract.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roughly 150 guides and more than 400 volunteers have been enlisted in Alameda County, according to Elaine de Coligny, executive director of EveryOne Home, an organization set up by the county to coordinate efforts to stop homelessness. The guides will be conducting surveys over the next two weeks with homeless people to get more information about how they became homeless, how long they’ve been homeless, their health and other issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the last count in 2015, volunteers estimated 4,040 people were homeless -- 2,397 of them without shelter.

"content": "\u003cp>It's been a tense week for immigrants and people of color throughout the country, but there was some good news in California: a \u003ca href=\"http://publications.nclr.org/handle/123456789/1678\">new study\u003c/a> by the advocacy group National Council of La Raza points out that the state's Latinos, as a group, are doing much better in many areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Latinos in the Golden State: An Analysis of Economic and Demographic Trends\" reveals an increase in the median household income for the state's Latinos, and a decrease in their poverty rate. Median incomes for California Latinos rose more than $5,000 annually, and the poverty level dropped 2.4 percentage points (a larger dip than for the state's non-Hispanic white households). And more Latino children now have health insurance: between 2013 and 2014, California \"had the largest decrease in the number of uninsured Latino children,\" according to the study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state's drop in those numbers accounted for a 44 percent drop in uninsured Latino children nationwide, although the report points out \"the Latino child uninsurance rate (4 percent) is still double that of non-Hispanic white children (2 percent).\" Further, children who have access to health care are an indicator that covered children \"are more likely to surpass the economic status of their parents than those who lack coverage.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Latino-owned enterprises are also on the rise: \"The number of businesses owned by Latinos in California increased by 43.9 percent between 2005 and 2011.\" They generated $98.9 million in gross receipts in 2012, a 23 percent increase from $80 million in 2007. Since 1990, Latino purchasing power rose by 367 percent to $320 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"91jWfu7eVw1Yz9jSBEjnlbKou9iRo6LQ\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the increased prosperity may be attributable to more Latinos earning college degrees, a figure that increased by 25 percent from 2011 to 2015, nearly three times the increase for non-Hispanic white Californians (8.8 percent). There was a similar bump for associate's degrees earned in the same period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News for pre-collegiate Latinos is more sobering. While almost half of all students in California classrooms are Latino, less than half of Latino fourth-graders were reading at grade level in 2015. (In comparison, over three-quarters of white fourth-graders had grade-level proficiency.)

Median incomes for California Latinos rose more than $5,000 annually, and the poverty level dropped 2.4 percentage points (a larger dip than for the state's non-Hispanic white households). And more Latino children now have health insurance: between 2013 and 2014, California \"had the largest decrease in the number of uninsured Latino children,\" according to the study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state's drop in those numbers accounted for a 44 percent drop in uninsured Latino children nationwide, although the report points out \"the Latino child uninsurance rate (4 percent) is still double that of non-Hispanic white children (2 percent).\" Further, children who have access to health care are an indicator that covered children \"are more likely to surpass the economic status of their parents than those who lack coverage.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Latino-owned enterprises are also on the rise: \"The number of businesses owned by Latinos in California increased by 43.9 percent between 2005 and 2011.\" They generated $98.9 million in gross receipts in 2012, a 23 percent increase from $80 million in 2007. Since 1990, Latino purchasing power rose by 367 percent to $320 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the increased prosperity may be attributable to more Latinos earning college degrees, a figure that increased by 25 percent from 2011 to 2015, nearly three times the increase for non-Hispanic white Californians (8.8 percent). There was a similar bump for associate's degrees earned in the same period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

This agreement is the first of a series of steps required to avert substantial\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\"> climate change. The Earth’s climate is entering a state that has not been experienced in human history. Continuing to produce greenhouse gases at current rates will have catastrophic, unstoppable consequences for our environment, our economy, and our country. Bold and decisive action may still avoid the worst scenarios, allow for adaptation to the changes, mitigate the damage, and bring new economic opportunities to our country. To this end, we ask that you ensure America’s place as the global leader on climate action.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c11\">With this letter, we aim to express the degree to which the scientists and intellectual leaders of our state, speaking for themselves and not on behalf of their respective employers, agree on the facts of climate change. Despite misleading portrayals, there is widespread consensus in the scientific and academic communities that human-caused climate change is real, with consequences that are already being felt.\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\"> The science of how greenhouse gases trap heat is unimpeachable. Climate records are being broken as human-caused changes add onto natural oscillations (e.g., El Niño) in the climate system. Fossil records from pre-human times show much higher sea levels and a reorganization of vegetation patterns when greenhouse gases were higher and Earth’s climate was much warmer than today. Increasing levels of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere set in motion regional variations in weather, weather extremes, the loss of major ice sheets, and declining biodiversity that has been associated with mass extinctions in Earth’s past.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">Scientists have warned for decades of the dangers of overreliance on fossil fuels. The world has been slow to respond and, as a result, we run an increasing risk of major damage to America’s economy and security. We have had an unusually large number of serious natural disasters in the past decade that are in line with climate change predictions. The Southeast and West suffer from increasing droughts. Miami floods at high tide as sea levels rise. Major cities on the Eastern and Gulf coasts regularly suffer major damage from violent weather. Western forests die because winters are insufficiently cold to prevent insect infestation of drought-stressed trees. Left unchecked, the frequency and severity of these climate change events will increase with time, as will their economic impact. To secure and conserve our way of life, our economy, and our environment, we need immediate action.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">The United States now has a unique opportunity to lead the world in developing innovative ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. By investing in and incentivizing clean energy and carbon sequestration technologies now, we position ourselves to be the economic and political leaders of the 21st century. To do otherwise cedes these opportunities to others and undermines our national security, food security, water security, and the future of our children and grandchildren. For these reasons, we ask you to maintain and increase our country’s commitment to taking action on climate change, beginning with the current Paris Climate Agreement.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c11\">Signed by\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\">,\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">2344 \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/2kNeOSa\">faculty members\u003c/a>, (as of 5 p.m. Tuesday) listed on \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/2kNeOSa\">the following pages\u003c/a>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",

Despite misleading portrayals, there is widespread consensus in the scientific and academic communities that human-caused climate change is real, with consequences that are already being felt.\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\"> The science of how greenhouse gases trap heat is unimpeachable. Climate records are being broken as human-caused changes add onto natural oscillations (e.g., El Niño) in the climate system. Fossil records from pre-human times show much higher sea levels and a reorganization of vegetation patterns when greenhouse gases were higher and Earth’s climate was much warmer than today. Increasing levels of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere set in motion regional variations in weather, weather extremes, the loss of major ice sheets, and declining biodiversity that has been associated with mass extinctions in Earth’s past.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">Scientists have warned for decades of the dangers of overreliance on fossil fuels. The world has been slow to respond and, as a result, we run an increasing risk of major damage to America’s economy and security. We have had an unusually large number of serious natural disasters in the past decade that are in line with climate change predictions. The Southeast and West suffer from increasing droughts. Miami floods at high tide as sea levels rise. Major cities on the Eastern and Gulf coasts regularly suffer major damage from violent weather. Western forests die because winters are insufficiently cold to prevent insect infestation of drought-stressed trees. Left unchecked, the frequency and severity of these climate change events will increase with time, as will their economic impact. To secure and conserve our way of life, our economy, and our environment, we need immediate action.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">The United States now has a unique opportunity to lead the world in developing innovative ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. By investing in and incentivizing clean energy and carbon sequestration technologies now, we position ourselves to be the economic and political leaders of the 21st century. To do otherwise cedes these opportunities to others and undermines our national security, food security, water security, and the future of our children and grandchildren. For these reasons, we ask you to maintain and increase our country’s commitment to taking action on climate change, beginning with the current Paris Climate Agreement.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c11\">Signed by\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\">,\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">2344 \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/2kNeOSa\">faculty members\u003c/a>, (as of 5 p.m. Tuesday) listed on \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/2kNeOSa\">the following pages\u003c/a>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Crowding is a big reason people are unhappy, though the most recent customer survey found that passengers who manage to get a seat are generally much more pleased with their BART experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fewer seats wouldn't seem likely to make the masses any less crabby. And as BART itself has noted, passenger dissatisfaction is likely a factor in a ridership decline that, although small so far, could affect the agency's bottom line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a difficult situation right now,\" Saltzman said. \"Ideally, we'd have a lot more space for people both to sit and to stand. But we're at the point of making a decision: Do we have more places for people to sit? Or are some people going to be passed up entirely and not be able to ride BART?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a BART survey, the most popular alternative seating configuration was replacing the double seats along one side of the train with seven single seats.

Removing seven seats from each of those cars would result in a loss of 2,660 seats. BART staff calculates, though, that about three people will be able to stand in each space where a seat has been removed. Our back of the envelope math suggests that would result in a theoretical net capacity gain of about 5,000 passengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The seat removal project would take most of the year to complete and cost $1.7 million.

Crowding is a big reason people are unhappy, though the most recent customer survey found that passengers who manage to get a seat are generally much more pleased with their BART experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fewer seats wouldn't seem likely to make the masses any less crabby. And as BART itself has noted, passenger dissatisfaction is likely a factor in a ridership decline that, although small so far, could affect the agency's bottom line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a difficult situation right now,\" Saltzman said. \"Ideally, we'd have a lot more space for people both to sit and to stand. But we're at the point of making a decision: Do we have more places for people to sit? Or are some people going to be passed up entirely and not be able to ride BART?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a BART survey, the most popular alternative seating configuration was replacing the double seats along one side of the train with seven single seats. BART says 54 percent of passengers surveyed after riding those cars said the trip was better than on the agency's regular cars; 32 percent said the ride was worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11295525\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey.png\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11295525\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey-800x564.png\" alt=\"BART surveyed riders about three alternative seating configurations. \" width=\"800\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey-800x564.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey-160x113.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey-240x169.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey-375x265.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey-520x367.png 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/bartsurvey.png 930w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">BART surveyed riders about three alternative seating configurations. \u003ccite>(BART)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In addition to being somewhat more popular with riders, that configuration \"is the one that really opens up the car so there's no choke point,\" Saltzman said. \"There's not the narrow aisle down the car, people can spread out quite a bit and there's room for luggage, strollers, things like that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its meeting next week, the board is expected to act on a December staff proposal to modify 380 cars with the new layout. Removing seven seats from each of those cars would result in a loss of 2,660 seats. BART staff calculates, though, that about three people will be able to stand in each space where a seat has been removed. Our back of the envelope math suggests that would result in a theoretical net capacity gain of about 5,000 passengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The seat removal project would take most of the year to complete and cost $1.7 million.
