Holmes planned to go to work last week, but her flu symptoms — a cough, fever and severe body aches that worsened overnight — had other ideas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It felt like somebody took a bat and beat my body up and down,\" said Holmes, 39, who works as a residential life director at California State University-Sacramento. \"I couldn't get out of bed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The nation is having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/summary.htm\">flu season\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flu is widespread in 46 states, including California, according to the latest reports to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationally, as of mid-December, at least 106 people had died from the infectious disease. \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-ln-flu-surge-20180106-htmlstory.html\">At least 27 Californians\u003c/a> younger than 65 had died as of Friday, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/FINALReport_201751.pdf\">seven of them\u003c/a> during the week before Christmas. And states across the country are reporting higher-than-average flu-related hospitalizations and emergency room visits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, flu struck surprisingly early and hard this season. The state's warmer temperatures typically mean people are less confined indoors and result in a later flu season compared with other regions. Health experts aren't sure why this season is different.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're seeing the worst of it right now,\" said Dr. Randy Bergen, a pediatrician who is leading Kaiser Permanente-Northern California's anti-flu effort. \"We're really in historic territory, and I just don't know when it's going to stop.\" (Kaiser Health News, which produces California Healthline, is not affiliated with Kaiser Permanente.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are five things you should know about this flu season:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. It's shaping up to be one of the worst in recent years.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The H3N2 influenza A subtype that appears to be most prevalent this year is \u003ca href=\"https://www.acsh.org/news/2018/01/02/some-bad-flu-news-h3n2-major-player-year-12350\">particularly nasty,\u003c/a> with more severe symptoms including fever and body aches. Australia, which U.S. public health officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1714916?query=featured_home&\">follow closely in their flu forecasting\u003c/a> in part because their winter is our summer, reported a record-high number of confirmed flu cases in 2017. Another influenza B virus subtype also is circulating, \"and that's no fun, either,\" Bergen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flu season in the U.S. typically starts in October and ends in May, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/season/flu-season.htm\">peaking between December and February\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. This season's flu vaccine is likely to be less effective than in previous years.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>U.S. flu experts say they won't fully know how effective this season's vaccine is until the end of the season. But Australia's experience suggests \u003ca href=\"http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1714916#t=article\">effectiveness was only about 10 percent\u003c/a>. In the U.S., it is 40 to 60 percent effective in an average season. Vaccines are less protective if strains are different than predicted and unexpected mutations occur.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. You should get the flu shot anyway.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Even if it is not a good match to the virus now circulating, the vaccine helps to ease the severity and duration of symptoms if you come down with the flu. Young children are considered among the most vulnerable to complications from the disease, and a shot can \u003ca href=\"http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2017/03/30/peds.2016-4244\">significantly reduce a child's chances of dying\u003c/a>. High-dose vaccines are recommended for elderly people, who also are exceptionally vulnerable to illness, hospitalization and death related to the flu, according to the CDC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"vBQxSP7Smy1GDafRzby3C9KSdsojMD85\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Some protection is better than no protection,\" Bergen said, \"but it's certainly disappointing to have a vaccine that's just not as effective as we'd like it to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shots may still be available from your doctor or local health clinic, as well as at some chain drugstores. Check the \u003ca href=\"https://vaccinefinder.org/\">Vaccine Finder website\u003c/a> for a location near you.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. Basic precautions may spare you and your family from days in bed.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As much as possible, avoid people who are sick. Wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your mouth, nose and eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Masks \u003ca href=\"https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/who-should-wear-a-mask-during-flu-season/?_r=0\">aren't particularly effective in keeping you from catching the flu,\u003c/a> although they may \u003ca href=\"https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/who-should-wear-a-mask-during-flu-season/?_r=0\">help keep sick people who wear them from spreading their germs further.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you are sick, cover your cough and stay home from work if you can, Bergen said. Remaining hydrated, eating nutritious foods and exercising can also help strengthen your immune system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because elderly people are so vulnerable to the flu, some nursing homes and assisted living facilities may limit visitors and resident activities, depending on the level of illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. Don't mistake flu symptoms for those of a common cold.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The hallmarks of flu are fever and body aches that accompany cough and congestion, Bergen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you feel as if you're having trouble breathing, or if your fever can't be controlled with medication like Tylenol, check with your doctor. It's even more important for patients to see a doctor if they have a chronic medical condition like diabetes or heart disease, or if they are young or elderly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaiser Permanente doctors now are being advised to prescribe antiviral drugs like Tamiflu — given as a pill or, for kids, an oral suspension — even without a lab test for influenza, Bergen said. According to a report in the \u003cem>Los Angeles Times,\u003c/em> however, Tamiflu \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-ln-flu-surge-20180106-htmlstory.html\">supplies are running low.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Bergen cautioned that these medications are only partly effective, reducing the time of illness by just a day or two.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced by \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://khn.org/\">\u003cem>Kaiser Health News\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>, which publishes California Healthline, an editorially independent service of the California Health Care Foundation.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, flu struck surprisingly early and hard this season. The state's warmer temperatures typically mean people are less confined indoors and result in a later flu season compared with other regions. Health experts aren't sure why this season is different.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're seeing the worst of it right now,\" said Dr. Randy Bergen, a pediatrician who is leading Kaiser Permanente-Northern California's anti-flu effort. \"We're really in historic territory, and I just don't know when it's going to stop.\" (Kaiser Health News, which produces California Healthline, is not affiliated with Kaiser Permanente.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are five things you should know about this flu season:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. It's shaping up to be one of the worst in recent years.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The H3N2 influenza A subtype that appears to be most prevalent this year is \u003ca href=\"https://www.acsh.org/news/2018/01/02/some-bad-flu-news-h3n2-major-player-year-12350\">particularly nasty,\u003c/a> with more severe symptoms including fever and body aches. Australia, which U.S. public health officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1714916?query=featured_home&\">follow closely in their flu forecasting\u003c/a> in part because their winter is our summer, reported a record-high number of confirmed flu cases in 2017. Another influenza B virus subtype also is circulating, \"and that's no fun, either,\" Bergen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flu season in the U.S. typically starts in October and ends in May, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/season/flu-season.htm\">peaking between December and February\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. This season's flu vaccine is likely to be less effective than in previous years.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>U.S. flu experts say they won't fully know how effective this season's vaccine is until the end of the season. But Australia's experience suggests \u003ca href=\"http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1714916#t=article\">effectiveness was only about 10 percent\u003c/a>. In the U.S., it is 40 to 60 percent effective in an average season. Vaccines are less protective if strains are different than predicted and unexpected mutations occur.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. You should get the flu shot anyway.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Even if it is not a good match to the virus now circulating, the vaccine helps to ease the severity and duration of symptoms if you come down with the flu. Young children are considered among the most vulnerable to complications from the disease, and a shot can \u003ca href=\"http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2017/03/30/peds.2016-4244\">significantly reduce a child's chances of dying\u003c/a>. High-dose vaccines are recommended for elderly people, who also are exceptionally vulnerable to illness, hospitalization and death related to the flu, according to the CDC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Some protection is better than no protection,\" Bergen said, \"but it's certainly disappointing to have a vaccine that's just not as effective as we'd like it to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shots may still be available from your doctor or local health clinic, as well as at some chain drugstores. Check the \u003ca href=\"https://vaccinefinder.org/\">Vaccine Finder website\u003c/a> for a location near you.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. Basic precautions may spare you and your family from days in bed.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As much as possible, avoid people who are sick. Wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your mouth, nose and eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Masks \u003ca href=\"https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/who-should-wear-a-mask-during-flu-season/?_r=0\">aren't particularly effective in keeping you from catching the flu,\u003c/a> although they may \u003ca href=\"https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/who-should-wear-a-mask-during-flu-season/?_r=0\">help keep sick people who wear them from spreading their germs further.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you are sick, cover your cough and stay home from work if you can, Bergen said. Remaining hydrated, eating nutritious foods and exercising can also help strengthen your immune system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because elderly people are so vulnerable to the flu, some nursing homes and assisted living facilities may limit visitors and resident activities, depending on the level of illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. Don't mistake flu symptoms for those of a common cold.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The hallmarks of flu are fever and body aches that accompany cough and congestion, Bergen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you feel as if you're having trouble breathing, or if your fever can't be controlled with medication like Tylenol, check with your doctor. It's even more important for patients to see a doctor if they have a chronic medical condition like diabetes or heart disease, or if they are young or elderly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaiser Permanente doctors now are being advised to prescribe antiviral drugs like Tamiflu — given as a pill or, for kids, an oral suspension — even without a lab test for influenza, Bergen said. According to a report in the \u003cem>Los Angeles Times,\u003c/em> however, Tamiflu \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-ln-flu-surge-20180106-htmlstory.html\">supplies are running low.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Bergen cautioned that these medications are only partly effective, reducing the time of illness by just a day or two.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced by \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://khn.org/\">\u003cem>Kaiser Health News\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>, which publishes California Healthline, an editorially independent service of the California Health Care Foundation.

In fact, Indivisible has an organization committed solely to Royce’s 39th Congressional District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Royce is well-known and well-liked by many voters in his district.

"content": "\u003cp>One way or another, two words are likely to dominate the complicated politics of California’s housing crisis in 2018: rent control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next week state lawmakers will hear a \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB1506\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">proposal\u003c/a> from Assemblyman Richard Bloom, Democrat from Santa Monica, that would allow cities to dramatically restrict what landlords can charge tenants year-over-year. The bill couldn’t even get a hearing last year amid intense opposition from landlords.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But looming over legislators’ heads this time around is a potential ballot \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/initiatives/pdfs/Title%20and%20Summary%20%2817-0041%29.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">initiative\u003c/a> supported by tenants’ rights groups that would do much of the same. If the bill stalls, experts say there’s a good chance you’ll see rent control on your November ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What should your average Californian know about a rent control debate poised to gobble up so much political oxygen? Here are five key points:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. Under current state law, a wide swath of California’s housing stock can’t be placed under rent control.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Rent control or rent stabilization policies come in different shapes and sizes depending on the city you may find them in. Some place a hard cap on how much a landlord can raise rents year over year, others may be indexed to inflation. Currently, 15 California cities have some form of rent control on the books, including major population centers like San Francisco, Los Angeles and Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But current state law prohibits any locality in California from imposing rent control on properties built after 1995. That’s the year the state passed the Costa-Hawkins Act, which also prohibited cities that already had rent control laws on their books from updating them for new properties. Thus, in Los Angeles, rent control only applies to buildings constructed before 1978, and in San Francisco, rent control only applies to buildings built before 1980.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://infogram.com/bay-area-rent-control-laws-1g0n2on0nrd9p4y\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bit of background: After some cities responded to tenants’ concerns about rising rents in the 1970s and '80s by adopting rent control ordinances, real estate interests first tried to stop them in the courts. Unsuccessful there, they focused on the Legislature. Bills to preempt local rent control would routinely pass the Assembly and then die in the Senate, held up by then-Senate President Pro Tem David Roberti, a West Hollywood Democrat. The year after he was termed out of office, Costa-Hawkins passed by a one-vote margin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Bloom’s bill (as it is currently written) and the initiative would fully repeal Costa Hawkins, massively expanding the number of properties on which cities could impose rent control. That includes single-family homes, which Costa-Hawkins also excluded from rent control protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. Most economists -- left or right -- think rent control is bad.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Economists have a hard time agreeing on most things. But regardless of partisan leaning, most economists would say rent control is not great policy. Even prominent progressives like Paul Krugman have expressed opposition to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rent control is quite literally the textbook example of a “price ceiling” -- undergrad economics textbooks will often feature problem sets with questions about what’s wrong with rent control. The classic microeconomic downsides include killing the incentive to build more housing, causing landlords to neglect maintenance and repair, and inflated prices for non-rent-controlled units. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.igmchicago.org/surveys/rent-control\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">poll\u003c/a> of ideologically diverse economists found that only 2 percent agreed with the statement that rent control had had a positive impact on housing affordability in cities like New York and San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. Scholars in other fields are generally bigger fans. And if you took away rent control, the results could be disastrous for affordability.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Many urban planners and other scholars studying gentrification and displacement cite rent control as an effective policy to keep long-time residents in the communities in which they live and work. And because rent control has become so deeply embedded in the housing markets of some cities, taking it away -- no matter how economically inefficient it may be -- could spell disaster for current residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://infogram.com/rent-control-key-to-affording-san-francisco-1hnq41n8pk3x63z\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area Council Economic Institute -- a business-aligned policy think tank -- ran a simulation of 20 policy changes that could improve or worsen housing affordability in San Francisco. The policy that would make things worst? Getting rid of rent control, which they found would plunge 16,000 households into an unaffordable housing situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. One of the best studies of rent control shows that it primarily benefits older households at the expense of households without rent control.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There actually aren’t a ton of empirical studies looking at how rent control plays out in practice. But a groundbreaking Stanford University \u003ca href=\"https://web.stanford.edu/~tmcquade/rentcontrol.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> released last year on San Francisco’s rent control experience has shed new light on who wins and who loses from the policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking at a roughly 20-year span of proprietary rental and migration data, the study authors found that rent-controlled tenants age 40 or over saw average savings of nearly $120,000 from rent control; by contrast, younger rent-controlled tenants only saved an average of $40,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because younger households were more likely to move out of rent-controlled apartments because of various life milestones -- a new job, a new family, buying a house in the suburbs, etc.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. The study also found that rent control paradoxically fueled gentrification, as landlords converted units to condos.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Stanford study also found that rent-controlled buildings were 10 percent more likely to be converted to a condominium or some other type of non-rental property, as landlords searched for ways to evade the law. Those units being drawn off the market partly drove up rental prices for tenants searching for apartments in San Francisco. In this sense, the study authors argue, rent control paradoxically contributed to the well-publicized gentrification the city has experienced over the past few decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://infogram.com/does-rent-control-actually-keep-a-community-together-1hmr6goxj8784nl\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the study also found that rent-controlled tenants were more likely to stay in the city than tenants without rent control, the gap may not be as wide as you think. After 10 years, about 11 percent of tenants without rent control were living at the same San Francisco address. Tenants with rent control? Thirteen percent stayed put.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How to participate in the debate: The rent control bill will be heard by the Assembly Housing and Community Development Committee on Thursday, Jan. 11 at 9 a.m., and will include a public comment period. You can watch the hearing—which should be pretty lively as far as legislative hearings go \u003ca href=\"http://www.calchannel.com/live-webcast/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CALmatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.

The bill couldn’t even get a hearing last year amid intense opposition from landlords.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But looming over legislators’ heads this time around is a potential ballot \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/initiatives/pdfs/Title%20and%20Summary%20%2817-0041%29.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">initiative\u003c/a> supported by tenants’ rights groups that would do much of the same. If the bill stalls, experts say there’s a good chance you’ll see rent control on your November ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What should your average Californian know about a rent control debate poised to gobble up so much political oxygen? Here are five key points:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. Under current state law, a wide swath of California’s housing stock can’t be placed under rent control.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Rent control or rent stabilization policies come in different shapes and sizes depending on the city you may find them in. Some place a hard cap on how much a landlord can raise rents year over year, others may be indexed to inflation. Currently, 15 California cities have some form of rent control on the books, including major population centers like San Francisco, Los Angeles and Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But current state law prohibits any locality in California from imposing rent control on properties built after 1995. That’s the year the state passed the Costa-Hawkins Act, which also prohibited cities that already had rent control laws on their books from updating them for new properties. Thus, in Los Angeles, rent control only applies to buildings constructed before 1978, and in San Francisco, rent control only applies to buildings built before 1980.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://infogram.com/bay-area-rent-control-laws-1g0n2on0nrd9p4y\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bit of background: After some cities responded to tenants’ concerns about rising rents in the 1970s and '80s by adopting rent control ordinances, real estate interests first tried to stop them in the courts. Unsuccessful there, they focused on the Legislature. Bills to preempt local rent control would routinely pass the Assembly and then die in the Senate, held up by then-Senate President Pro Tem David Roberti, a West Hollywood Democrat. The year after he was termed out of office, Costa-Hawkins passed by a one-vote margin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Bloom’s bill (as it is currently written) and the initiative would fully repeal Costa Hawkins, massively expanding the number of properties on which cities could impose rent control. That includes single-family homes, which Costa-Hawkins also excluded from rent control protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. Most economists -- left or right -- think rent control is bad.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Economists have a hard time agreeing on most things. But regardless of partisan leaning, most economists would say rent control is not great policy. Even prominent progressives like Paul Krugman have expressed opposition to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rent control is quite literally the textbook example of a “price ceiling” -- undergrad economics textbooks will often feature problem sets with questions about what’s wrong with rent control. The classic microeconomic downsides include killing the incentive to build more housing, causing landlords to neglect maintenance and repair, and inflated prices for non-rent-controlled units. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.igmchicago.org/surveys/rent-control\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">poll\u003c/a> of ideologically diverse economists found that only 2 percent agreed with the statement that rent control had had a positive impact on housing affordability in cities like New York and San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. Scholars in other fields are generally bigger fans. And if you took away rent control, the results could be disastrous for affordability.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Many urban planners and other scholars studying gentrification and displacement cite rent control as an effective policy to keep long-time residents in the communities in which they live and work. And because rent control has become so deeply embedded in the housing markets of some cities, taking it away -- no matter how economically inefficient it may be -- could spell disaster for current residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://infogram.com/rent-control-key-to-affording-san-francisco-1hnq41n8pk3x63z\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area Council Economic Institute -- a business-aligned policy think tank -- ran a simulation of 20 policy changes that could improve or worsen housing affordability in San Francisco. The policy that would make things worst? Getting rid of rent control, which they found would plunge 16,000 households into an unaffordable housing situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. One of the best studies of rent control shows that it primarily benefits older households at the expense of households without rent control.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There actually aren’t a ton of empirical studies looking at how rent control plays out in practice. But a groundbreaking Stanford University \u003ca href=\"https://web.stanford.edu/~tmcquade/rentcontrol.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> released last year on San Francisco’s rent control experience has shed new light on who wins and who loses from the policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking at a roughly 20-year span of proprietary rental and migration data, the study authors found that rent-controlled tenants age 40 or over saw average savings of nearly $120,000 from rent control; by contrast, younger rent-controlled tenants only saved an average of $40,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because younger households were more likely to move out of rent-controlled apartments because of various life milestones -- a new job, a new family, buying a house in the suburbs, etc.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. The study also found that rent control paradoxically fueled gentrification, as landlords converted units to condos.\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Stanford study also found that rent-controlled buildings were 10 percent more likely to be converted to a condominium or some other type of non-rental property, as landlords searched for ways to evade the law. Those units being drawn off the market partly drove up rental prices for tenants searching for apartments in San Francisco. In this sense, the study authors argue, rent control paradoxically contributed to the well-publicized gentrification the city has experienced over the past few decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://infogram.com/does-rent-control-actually-keep-a-community-together-1hmr6goxj8784nl\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the study also found that rent-controlled tenants were more likely to stay in the city than tenants without rent control, the gap may not be as wide as you think. After 10 years, about 11 percent of tenants without rent control were living at the same San Francisco address. Tenants with rent control? Thirteen percent stayed put.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How to participate in the debate: The rent control bill will be heard by the Assembly Housing and Community Development Committee on Thursday, Jan. 11 at 9 a.m., and will include a public comment period. You can watch the hearing—which should be pretty lively as far as legislative hearings go \u003ca href=\"http://www.calchannel.com/live-webcast/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And this year, Emily's List has already trained 2,500 women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The wave extends well beyond Emily's List, and is part of an unprecedented surge in candidates. As of December 18, according to Rutgers University's Center for American Women and Politics, there were more than double the women running for Congress than at that point in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That growth is overwhelmingly on the Democratic side. For example, as of mid-December, there were 307 Democratic women running for the U.S. House, compared to 126 at this point in the 2016 cycle. Growth among Republicans wasn't nearly as steep, at 76 in mid-December compared to 62 at that point two years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Trump factor\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think probably the most significant factor in creating this surge is the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, both the combination of Hillary Clinton losing and Donald Trump getting elected,\" according to Deborah Walsh, director at Rutgers' Center for American Women and Politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Women at the New Hampshire training cited both of those as motivating factors behind their interest in running for office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it was a huge letdown for women all across the country when she fell just short,\" said Shelby Guzzetta, a teacher who lives in Boston. \"So I think [it's] partly frustration but also partly now we've seen somebody come that close and it feels more real.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I realized how much I personally was invested in her winning — how much I wanted to see her win,\" she added. \"And it just felt very personal in a way that I don't know that I can fully explain.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other women at the training cited Trump more than Clinton. Debra Altschiller, who in 2016 won a seat in the New Hampshire House of Representatives, went to the training to hone her skills before she defends her seat in November. She believes the allegations of sexual misconduct against Donald Trump — allegations he has denied — and thinks that they have driven more women into the candidate pool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a sexual assaulter in the White House,\" she said. \"I mean, there can't be any larger motivation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know one moment in the presidential campaign that was disturbing to me was the 'grab 'em' comment made by Donald Trump with the leaked tapes,\" said Jordan Taylor, who ran for the House in South Carolina in 2016 and plans on running again in the coming years. She was referring to the infamous \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2016/10/07/497087141/donald-trump-caught-on-tape-making-vulgar-remarks-about-women\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cem>Access Hollywood\u003c/em> tape\u003c/a> in which the then-Republican nominee seemed to brag about committing sexual assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just really felt in that moment that there wasn't really anyone who was qualified to deal with and analyze how that affected so many people on a deep level,\" Taylor said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not all about Trump and Clinton personally; for every woman, there is a unique batch of issues and reasons why she wants to run. For Sierran Lucey, an academic adviser from Portsmouth, N.H., preserving the Affordable Care Act is issue one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\"\u003c/em>In grad school I just didn't have a job that afforded me the opportunity to have health insurance, so luckily I was able to stay on my parents' insurance because of [the ACA],\" she said. \"And ever since then it's just been important to me that everybody has the same opportunities that I had.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Combine these Democratic women's policy concerns with a president they overwhelmingly dislike (\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/08/21/544430491/women-are-a-huge-reason-why-trumps-poll-numbers-are-so-bad\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">much more than Democratic men\u003c/a>) and a \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/05/16/528505512/in-trump-era-men-have-grown-far-more-confident-about-the-u-s-future-than-women\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">newly deepened sense of pessimism\u003c/a> about the nation's future, and it's a recipe for a woman-packed candidate field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think they're feeling in ways they haven't in the recent past — really a sense that elections have consequences and that they cannot afford to sit on the sidelines and let someone else do politics,\" Walsh said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What do women learn that men don't?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the Manchester training, Coyne-McCoy started the session by approaching every training attendee (and reporters), shaking their hands and asking them to say something about themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a time-consuming exercise, but she had a reason.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you're a candidate, you begin to collect people,\" she said. \"I'm not going to this room or an event and hanging at the bar or staying in the kitchen. I have a strategy.

However, there are also some areas where women need different guidance than men. Some of it is tactical, like dealing with the perils of campaigning online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\"\u003c/i>I think there's some aspects to social media that may be different for women,\" said Walsh, who also helps Rutgers' center run its own bipartisan training program. \"We certainly know that women suffer a little bit more of that kind of online harassment and violence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the advice is superficial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I look forward to the day when I train women and I don't have to talk about the way they dress or the way their hair looks or the kind of makeup they should buy,\" Coyne-McCoy told NPR. \"But until we eliminate that double standard, I do address the ways to dress on a campaign.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her main advice on that front is more common sense than blowouts or makeovers: a candidate should \"look like her constituency.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But altogether, a lot of the advice amounts to letting women know that, as candidates, they may have to present themselves in a different way than men do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We do know from research that there is an assumption of qualifications for men who run for office, whereas women have to prove those qualifications,\" Walsh said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even figuring out how to appeal to voters on a basic level can be a minefield for women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's also a kind of a likability factor that we have found in politics, where women have to be not only qualified but they also have to be likable,\" Walsh added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Training is about more than skills\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Altschiller had already won a race, but she came to the training to make sure her 2018 campaign would be fine-tuned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Every blind squirrel gets a nut every once in a while, and I wanted to make sure that it wasn't just me as a blind squirrel,\" she said. \"I know that I'd done some of the right things, but, you know, I was making it up as I went along, and so was our team.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Altschiller had a specific aim in going to the training: improving her fundraising skills. But not everyone comes in with one particular idea in mind. According to Walsh, there's a degree to which simply attending training makes some women feel better about running.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think women are oftentimes — they're being 'good girls,' right? They want to take the class, and it's like reading the self-help book or taking the class that makes you certified to be able to run for office,\" Walsh said. \"They're ready to run right now, but they need to feel like they did their homework and that they're coming into it as prepared as possible. And so I think that's part of what these campaign trainings do.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One other thing that separates men and women candidates: their likelihood of running. Men are more likely to run without outside encouragement, according to Walsh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've consistently found that the men are more likely to wake up one morning, look in the mirror and say they'd be a great elected official, and the women are more likely to say they ran the first time because somebody recruited them,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And training events help with that — aside from functioning as classrooms, they function as recruitment in and of themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even for those candidates who aren't formally recruited, there can be other external motivation. For Guzzetta, it was a conversation with friends the day after the 2016 election that inspired her to look into running.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As we were talking to each other, consoling each other, we all went to a bar, and the topic just came up and we started talking about like, well why don't more women run and like why couldn't you run or why couldn't I run?\" she said. \"And I think that was kind of just like a moment for me where it kind of planted the seed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guzzetta just might be a case study in how well recruitment can work. The night before the training, she was thinking it might be six years or more before she ran for office. She wanted to move back to Indiana, where she's from, and finish law school first. But just partway through the training, that was changing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Given some of the presentations, I've been thinking maybe I want to get involved sooner than I was originally thinking — maybe even, you know, in the next couple of years — and then kind of see where that goes,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If training programs like this are effective, however, the organizers hope they won't just inspire women like Guzzetta to run.
