"content": "\u003cp>My biggest concern on the morning of Jan. 7, 2025, was the wind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weather warnings said the Santa Anas would roll in hard with hurricane force velocity. Before sunset, mean wind gusts were already rattling windows and knocking over lawn furniture. Tree branches groaned and palm trees bowed toward the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We followed reports of a fire getting bigger out by the ocean, in the wealthy enclave of Pacific Palisades. Then, around 6:30 p.m., word got out of a brush fire igniting in Eaton Canyon, a few miles from my neighborhood on the southern edge of Altadena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By 7 p.m., people were voluntarily evacuating parts of east Altadena and north Pasadena, right below the canyon, as the wind-driven fire exploded and began its destructive western march, eventually tearing a six-mile path across the whole of Altadena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I headed out into the windstorm on foot, around 8:30 p.m. After two decades as a reporter in Southern California, I’ve seen how the Santa Anas can turn a modest brush fire into a virtually unstoppable destructive force that will erase neighborhoods. But this one felt different. There was a fury in the wind that I’d never experienced. And this was my own community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not even knowing what I’d do with the material, I started walking east, recording and narrating what I saw.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/KdII2e2Nw7s\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lake Avenue cuts through the middle of Altadena, cleaving it into two distinct halves. I could see a fiery glow to the northeast. Embers were starting to blow down like burning snowflakes. I picked up the unmistakable smell of burning structures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I crept out a few more times, snapping pictures and shooting video, trying to stay upright. The wind only seemed to grow angrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 2:30 a.m., I went out once last time. The windstorm of embers was bigger, and hotter, the fire obviously closer. A small fire crew from the city of Alhambra was just around the corner at the intersection of El Molino Avenue and Highland Street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two firefighters had pulled out a manhole cover and were somehow drawing water from the sewer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Get the f–k out of here, now!” one of the firefighters yelled through the howling winds. Houses just two blocks southeast were fully engulfed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I packed a few things and evacuated to the parking lot of a nearby grocery store, but returned on foot at sunrise. By then the winds had calmed, but the sky above West Altadena was black as ink, the sunrise extinguished.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The stay-behinds\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>One of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12033286/in-fire-scarred-altadena-these-residents-refused-to-leave\">first people I interviewed\u003c/a> after the fire was Justin Murphy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He and his brother evacuated their 94-year-old mom, Jane, from her home in East Altadena. Then they raced back up to the house to meet the fire head-on as it tore through the neighborhood. They saved Jane’s house and one across the street. Every other house on the cul-de-sac was destroyed.[aside postID=news_12033286 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/03/20250312_Stay-Behinds_JB_00010-1020x680.jpg']Murphy chose to stay behind after the fire, to mop up hot spots and protect the house from looters. Everyone else in the neighborhood was gone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, I lived through the fire, and I lived after the fire, and I lived kind of as an outcast really,” Murphy told me, still a bit rattled by his experience. “But in a weird way, it made me look at myself and do some self-review.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past year, I’ve kept walking Altadena, trying to make sense of what happened with as many people who would talk to me, including Eshele Williams. Her family has lived in the same West Altadena neighborhood for 60 years. They lost four houses, all within a block or two of each other. I asked Williams why she and her family have been so willing to tell their story and speak out at local town hall events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve grown up in this community and the only thing that I can do is shine a really bright light on it, on us, and who we have always been and potentially talk about where we should go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Loss and resurrection\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Eaton Fire not only brought flames of destructive fury, it created a demographic earthquake that will shake-up Altadena’s racial and class complexion for the foreseeable future. But that’s something Williams saw coming long before the fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Altadena has been in transition for a long time, when I grew up here all of my neighbors were Black,” Williams said. “And that has changed over the years, this gentrification of Altadena.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12071474\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1170px\">\u003ca href=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/IMG_3368.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12071474\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/IMG_3368.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"831\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/IMG_3368.jpg 1170w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/IMG_3368-160x114.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">From top left: Steven Cuevas, artist Alma Cielo, photographer James Bernal and journalist Sasha Khokha pose for a selfie on Dec. 28, 2025 at the site of Cielo’s former home and studio, which were completely destroyed in West Altadena during the Eaton fire. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Alma Cielo)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, I invited my old friend and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/program/the-california-report-magazine\">The California Report Magazine\u003c/a> host Sasha Khokha to come down from Northern California and see Altadena in the slow process of recovery. I wanted to introduce her to some of the people that I’ve featured in my stories over the past year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khokha arrived on a bright Sunday morning, so naturally, I took her to church. Since the fire, St. Mark’s Episcopal Church has been worshipping in the nearby East LA neighborhood of Eagle Rock after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12038756/an-historic-altadena-church-lost-to-the-eaton-fire-begins-the-long-journey-to-resurrection\">its entire campus in the heart of Altadena\u003c/a> burned down. After the service, senior Pastor Carri Grindon told us that even though this temporary space is a 20-minute drive from Altadena, they haven’t lost any parishioners. In fact, they’ve gained new ones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People need the community more than they’ve ever needed it before. They need that sense of, we’ve lost so much, but we have each other and we’re not going anywhere,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would compare it to when you’ve had a death in your family. There’s grief, but also there’s tasks. And now people are, at least in my experience, sharing, expressing and processing their grief,” Grindon continued.[aside postID=news_12038756 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/04/METTE.LAMPCOV.CHURCH.BELL-22-KQED-1020x680.jpg']I’ve talked a lot about grief and trauma over the past year with 94-year-old Jane Murphy. She’s been a mental health therapist for decades and still sees clients every week. Her expansive home, saved from the fire by her sons, is filled with light that floods in from large windows throughout the house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I love this house. I’ve lived here 64 years,” Murphy told us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Murphy walked us through her later years with grace, irrepressible wonder and with absolute appreciation for whatever or whomever is in front of her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s also very funny. Like her answer when I asked her how she’s doing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Well, I’ve been medium rare,” she said. Now, medium rare for me, is the comedy and the tragedy. Because I walk through all this tragedy every day,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That is literally true. An avid hiker for most of her life, Murphy still gets out and walks a couple of miles every day through her neighborhood, now peppered with vacant lots, reminders of lost homes and neighbors. And she says a blessing in her head as she passes each one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12068927\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-002-JB.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12068927\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-002-JB.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1332\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-002-JB.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-002-JB-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-002-JB-1536x1023.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jane Murphy, photographed at her home in Altadena, California, on Dec. 28, 2025. \u003ccite>(James Bernal/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“What I have done is I’ve blessed all these lots, blessed the people. I am deeply grateful more people did not die, but I’m very sad for the people in West Altadena who did die,” Murphy said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All but one of the nineteen people who lost their lives in the fire lived in West Altadena. Murphy and I may not have known them personally, but we all shared space together in our community, drove the same streets, hiked the same foothill trails, bought groceries or had our cars repaired at the same places. The connection is undeniable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like me and many others, Murphy worries about what comes next for Altadena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m hopeful that Altadena will resurrect,” she said. “My fear is that some builders will come in and want to build condos on lots and change the character,” she says, echoing the sentiments of Williams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As rebuilding slowly lurches to a start, outsiders are indeed swooping in and scooping up properties that belonged to Altadena families for decades. Real estate listing firms like Redfin find that roughly half of all vacant lots sold in Altadena since the fire were snapped up by corporate investors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire dealt a huge blow not only to homeowners but to renters as well. Scores of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12050296/for-altadenas-therapists-trauma-and-healing-from-wildfire-ripple-outwards\">Altadena renters, like Melissa Lopez\u003c/a>, had to scramble to find new places outside Altadena and typically at inflated prices. Standing on the vacant lot where her home once stood on Lake Avenue, Lopez told Khokha and me that coming back to the property is like visiting a grave site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12068936\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-013-JB.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12068936\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-013-JB.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1418\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-013-JB.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-013-JB-160x113.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/260107-Altadena-Anniversary-013-JB-1536x1089.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Left: Melissa Lopez photographed a year after her home in Altadena, California was destroyed by the Eaton fire.

It’ll find you, trust me,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[But] I find a certain level of comfort when I come, because in many ways, there’s still some foundations, there’s still some rubble, empty lots. It’s the one place where the outsides match my insides.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Living now about fifteen miles outside of Altadena, Melissa said renters like her have been largely left out of the re-building process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like we need a survey of — who commits to renting to fire survivors? Who’s committing to rent at reasonable prices?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People were starting to really gentrify Altadena even before the fire,” she continued. “There are people saying, yeah, we want renters back.

Freshly cut wood slats are sinking into freshly poured foundation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But before anyone was drawing up blueprints for a rebuild, others, like Alma Cielo and her husband Paul, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12060753/a-look-at-prop-50-meet-the-duduk-whisperer-altadena-homeowners-resettling-in-rvs\">returned with trailers and RVs\u003c/a> to homestead on their scorched lots.[aside postID=news_12050296 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/2-Gabby-Raices-2000x1500.jpg']They’re going to rebuild their place too, in West Altadena, but they’re not quite ready just yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just want to stand here and feel the land healing, and then we’ll be able to know where to go from there,” Alma Cielo said, standing near a cluster of blooming morning glories and next to a fig tree that’s leafing out again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m feeling very grateful, actually, and at peace,” she added. The fire took away a lot of the things that I had been carrying that were simply weight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cielo lost about thirty years of journals that were destroyed in the fire, notes she thought would be the foundation of a memoir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And if I go through those books, you just see a lot of the same cycles of ignorance and trauma. And I really had wanted to burn them years ago, but I didn’t know how I could do that safely.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe that’s how she starts the new book, I suggested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes,” she continued, “about how it was time to write a whole new story without having to constantly reference the past.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I told Cielo about feeling something similar, about how the fire drew me back to journalism after I’d felt burnt out from covering news for 25 years. The fire gave me a renewed purpose.

Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, who represents the 14th district, has been at the forefront of that work. But, it’s still really expensive to build. This year, she is chairing the newly established Select Committee on Housing and Construction Innovation.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Immigration arrests in and around San Diego \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2026/01/san-diego-immigration-arrest-surge/\">surged nearly 1500% in 2025.\u003c/a> And many of the people who’ve been arrested have no history of criminal convictions.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California lawmakers \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/housing-homelessness/los-angeles-fires-california-home-cleaning-contamination-bill-harabedian\">want to set new standards\u003c/a> for cleaning homes after toxic fires.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Lawmaker Leads Effort To Build More Housing\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers passed a handful of bills in 2025 aimed at cutting some of the red tape when it comes to building new homes. But will it actually lead to more building?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area Assemblymember Buffy Wicks chairs the newly established Select Committee on Housing and Construction Innovation, which has already held two meetings this month. “What we’re looking at is how do we bring down the cost of construction? Homes in California are just a lot more expensive to build,” Wicks said. “So one of the things we’re really looking at is what are the newer innovative models of construction that we can really hope to spur and to create here in California to bring down the cost.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wicks said that prefab and modular housing, which many cities and countries use around the world, definitely need to be explored. “In the fall, I went to Sweden and looked at their whole industry and how they’ve done this. 85% of their new single-family homes are built in factories. It is efficient. It’s more environmentally friendly. It’s done faster. It’s been cheaper. There’s a real synergy with the timber industry there in terms of supply and demand. The cities are actually developers there. So there was a lot to learn in Sweden,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with finding less expensive building options, Wicks said lawmakers are working to make home ownership easier for Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title entry-title--with-subtitle\">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2026/01/san-diego-immigration-arrest-surge/\">\u003cstrong>Immigration Arrests Surge By 1,500% In San Diego Area\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp class=\"has-drop-cap\">While the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/donald-trump/\">Trump administration’s\u003c/a> immigration blitz hit Midwestern cities like Chicago and Minneapolis, a quieter escalation unfolded in San Diego late last year with agents making thousands of arrests in and around the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Government data analyzed by CalMatters show nearly a 1500% increase in arrests for May to October compared to the same time period a year earlier. The arrests occurred in San Diego and Imperial counties, a region the federal government refers to as its San Diego area of responsibility.

Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, who represents the 14th district, has been at the forefront of that work. But, it’s still really expensive to build. This year, she is chairing the newly established Select Committee on Housing and Construction Innovation.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Immigration arrests in and around San Diego \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2026/01/san-diego-immigration-arrest-surge/\">surged nearly 1500% in 2025.\u003c/a> And many of the people who’ve been arrested have no history of criminal convictions.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California lawmakers \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/housing-homelessness/los-angeles-fires-california-home-cleaning-contamination-bill-harabedian\">want to set new standards\u003c/a> for cleaning homes after toxic fires.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Lawmaker Leads Effort To Build More Housing\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers passed a handful of bills in 2025 aimed at cutting some of the red tape when it comes to building new homes. But will it actually lead to more building?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area Assemblymember Buffy Wicks chairs the newly established Select Committee on Housing and Construction Innovation, which has already held two meetings this month. “What we’re looking at is how do we bring down the cost of construction? Homes in California are just a lot more expensive to build,” Wicks said. “So one of the things we’re really looking at is what are the newer innovative models of construction that we can really hope to spur and to create here in California to bring down the cost.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wicks said that prefab and modular housing, which many cities and countries use around the world, definitely need to be explored. “In the fall, I went to Sweden and looked at their whole industry and how they’ve done this. 85% of their new single-family homes are built in factories. It is efficient. It’s more environmentally friendly. It’s done faster. It’s been cheaper. There’s a real synergy with the timber industry there in terms of supply and demand. The cities are actually developers there. So there was a lot to learn in Sweden,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with finding less expensive building options, Wicks said lawmakers are working to make home ownership easier for Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title entry-title--with-subtitle\">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2026/01/san-diego-immigration-arrest-surge/\">\u003cstrong>Immigration Arrests Surge By 1,500% In San Diego Area\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp class=\"has-drop-cap\">While the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/donald-trump/\">Trump administration’s\u003c/a> immigration blitz hit Midwestern cities like Chicago and Minneapolis, a quieter escalation unfolded in San Diego late last year with agents making thousands of arrests in and around the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It’s Not Clear Why\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>For the second year in a row, Gov. \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/gavin-newsom/\">Gavin Newsom\u003c/a> is celebrating California’s declining homicide rate while using it as a cudgel against his political foes. “Your state’s homicide rate is 117% higher than California’s,” he \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1934678145078288487?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told a Missouri congressman\u003c/a> who needled Newsom on social media last summer. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders caught his attention, too. “Your homicide rate is literally DOUBLE California’s,” he \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1932849253459898732?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote on social media addressing\u003c/a> her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s been clear for the last three years is that homicides are down in Los Angeles and San Francisco — but also in \u003ca href=\"https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/crime/article314216233.html\">Fresno\u003c/a>, Oakland, Richmond and Lodi. “California cities are seeing record-low homicide rates,” \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/01/gavin-newsom-state-of-state/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Newsom said\u003c/a> in his state of the state speech earlier this month. “Oakland, the lowest since 1967; LA, the lowest since 1966; and San Francisco, the lowest since 1954.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reason why is far less clear. To put it in the language of crime researchers, the answer is “multifactorial.” Magnus Lofstrom, policy director of criminal justice at nonpartisan think tank the Public Policy Institute of California, said the spike of homicides during the pandemic may have been the result of disruptions in government activities: Schools were shut down, people were out of work, community-based programs for violence prevention and many basic public services were put on pause, Lofstrom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2020 numbers were a shock. After years of decline, the homicide rate in California surged by 31% in 2020 to 5.5 homicides per 100,000 people. In 2021, it rose again, to about 6 per 100,000 people. But that trend began to turn in 2022, when the number of homicides dropped by 7%, then in 2023 by 14% and in 2024 by another 12%. By the end of 2024, the homicide rate in California was down to 4.3 per 100,000 people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A long-range look at crime statistics, particularly homicide data, shows that the 2020-21 crime rate nationally and in California was still a fraction of its highs in the early 1990s. Simply counting the year-over-year changes belies a larger truth: Crime throughout the 2020s has been down significantly compared to the rate 20 or 30 years ago. As with the long-term homicide rate declines, the recent tapering in California is part of a nationwide trend. A \u003ca href=\"https://counciloncj.org/crime-trends-in-u-s-cities-year-end-2025-update/\">report published Thursday\u003c/a> by the Council on Criminal Justice, a nonpartisan Washington, D.C., think tank found that among 35 major cities nationwide, homicides dropped by 21% between 2024 and 2025.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12071380/california-lawmakers-want-to-raise-taxes-on-for-profit-immigrant-detention-operators\">\u003cstrong>California Lawmakers Want To Raise Taxes On For-Profit Immigrant Detention Operators\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/california\">California\u003c/a> lawmakers are seeking to target the deep pockets of for-profit contractors key to the Trump administration’s growing deportation campaign, amid outrage over the killing of U.S. citizens by federal \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/immigration\">immigration\u003c/a> agents in Minneapolis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A new state bill would raise taxes on companies that contract with the federal government to run immigration detention facilities, which hold thousands of men and women in California. \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260AB1633\">AB-1633\u003c/a>, introduced by Assemblymember Matt Haney, D-San Francisco, on Tuesday, would tax operators’ detention contract revenue by 50% annually and reinvest those funds into services supporting immigrant communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first-in-the-nation bill aims to mitigate economic, emotional and social harms caused to the state as immigration authorities detain more residents, businesses lose workers and students skip school due to deportation fears, Haney said during a press conference on the bill on Wednesday. “We will not allow these for-profit corporations to make hundreds of millions of dollars off of human suffering and family separation,” Haney said, flanked by Democratic lawmakers, gubernatorial candidate Tony Thurmond and immigrant advocates. “If you are going to impose this kind of terror on our state and on our people, we are going to tax you for the pain and harm that you’re causing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This comes as the fatal shootings of protesters Alex Pretti, an intensive care unit nurse, and Renee Macklin Good, a mother of three, have\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12071018/california-governor-candidates-denounce-ice-at-san-francisco-forum\"> generated intense backlash\u003c/a> in spaces as varied as professional basketball games, social media influencers’ baking feeds and Trump\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/transcripts/nx-s1-5688870\"> voter\u003c/a> surveys.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArtP-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-01-28/inland-empire-democrats-demand-for-dhs-secretary-kristi-noems-removal\">\u003cstrong>Inland Empire Democrats Demand For DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s Removal\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Democratic members of Congress from the Inland Empire on Wednesday called for the removal of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, citing what they described as aggressive and deadly immigration enforcement across the country. They’re also demanding immediate reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a news conference outside ICE’s field office in San Bernardino, Democratic Reps. Pete Aguilar, Raul Ruiz and Mark Takano, joined by immigrant rights advocates, called for Noem’s removal or impeachment and outlined a series of reforms. Those demands included limits on enforcement operations, greater transparency at detention facilities and accountability for agents involved in shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant rights advocates who joined the news conference said federal immigration enforcement under the Trump administration has fueled fear in working-class and immigrant communities, while diverting public resources away from healthcare, education and worker protections. “Instead of investing in things that would actually improve people’s lives, this administration is using billions of our tax dollars to sponsor an agenda of brutality and violence against the most vulnerable,” said Yunuen Trujillo, director of workers’ rights and labor legal services with the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ruiz said he was denied entry to the Adelanto ICE Processing Center while attempting to conduct congressional oversight. Ruiz said he followed DHS protocol, which asks members of Congress to provide seven days’ notice before visiting detention facilities. He alleged ICE failed to respond to his notice and said he waited nearly an hour before receiving a response. When he did, Ruiz said he was read a scripted denial over the phone by an ICE agent. “If we’re seeing the brutality and the violence in the open, in public, then what are we not seeing inside these detention facilities?” Ruiz said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It’s Not Clear Why\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>For the second year in a row, Gov. \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/gavin-newsom/\">Gavin Newsom\u003c/a> is celebrating California’s declining homicide rate while using it as a cudgel against his political foes. “Your state’s homicide rate is 117% higher than California’s,” he \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1934678145078288487?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told a Missouri congressman\u003c/a> who needled Newsom on social media last summer. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders caught his attention, too. “Your homicide rate is literally DOUBLE California’s,” he \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1932849253459898732?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote on social media addressing\u003c/a> her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s been clear for the last three years is that homicides are down in Los Angeles and San Francisco — but also in \u003ca href=\"https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/crime/article314216233.html\">Fresno\u003c/a>, Oakland, Richmond and Lodi. “California cities are seeing record-low homicide rates,” \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/01/gavin-newsom-state-of-state/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Newsom said\u003c/a> in his state of the state speech earlier this month. “Oakland, the lowest since 1967; LA, the lowest since 1966; and San Francisco, the lowest since 1954.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reason why is far less clear. To put it in the language of crime researchers, the answer is “multifactorial.” Magnus Lofstrom, policy director of criminal justice at nonpartisan think tank the Public Policy Institute of California, said the spike of homicides during the pandemic may have been the result of disruptions in government activities: Schools were shut down, people were out of work, community-based programs for violence prevention and many basic public services were put on pause, Lofstrom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2020 numbers were a shock. After years of decline, the homicide rate in California surged by 31% in 2020 to 5.5 homicides per 100,000 people. In 2021, it rose again, to about 6 per 100,000 people. But that trend began to turn in 2022, when the number of homicides dropped by 7%, then in 2023 by 14% and in 2024 by another 12%. By the end of 2024, the homicide rate in California was down to 4.3 per 100,000 people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Simply counting the year-over-year changes belies a larger truth: Crime throughout the 2020s has been down significantly compared to the rate 20 or 30 years ago. As with the long-term homicide rate declines, the recent tapering in California is part of a nationwide trend. A \u003ca href=\"https://counciloncj.org/crime-trends-in-u-s-cities-year-end-2025-update/\">report published Thursday\u003c/a> by the Council on Criminal Justice, a nonpartisan Washington, D.C., think tank found that among 35 major cities nationwide, homicides dropped by 21% between 2024 and 2025.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12071380/california-lawmakers-want-to-raise-taxes-on-for-profit-immigrant-detention-operators\">\u003cstrong>California Lawmakers Want To Raise Taxes On For-Profit Immigrant Detention Operators\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/california\">California\u003c/a> lawmakers are seeking to target the deep pockets of for-profit contractors key to the Trump administration’s growing deportation campaign, amid outrage over the killing of U.S. citizens by federal \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/immigration\">immigration\u003c/a> agents in Minneapolis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A new state bill would raise taxes on companies that contract with the federal government to run immigration detention facilities, which hold thousands of men and women in California. \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260AB1633\">AB-1633\u003c/a>, introduced by Assemblymember Matt Haney, D-San Francisco, on Tuesday, would tax operators’ detention contract revenue by 50% annually and reinvest those funds into services supporting immigrant communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first-in-the-nation bill aims to mitigate economic, emotional and social harms caused to the state as immigration authorities detain more residents, businesses lose workers and students skip school due to deportation fears, Haney said during a press conference on the bill on Wednesday. “We will not allow these for-profit corporations to make hundreds of millions of dollars off of human suffering and family separation,” Haney said, flanked by Democratic lawmakers, gubernatorial candidate Tony Thurmond and immigrant advocates. “If you are going to impose this kind of terror on our state and on our people, we are going to tax you for the pain and harm that you’re causing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This comes as the fatal shootings of protesters Alex Pretti, an intensive care unit nurse, and Renee Macklin Good, a mother of three, have\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12071018/california-governor-candidates-denounce-ice-at-san-francisco-forum\"> generated intense backlash\u003c/a> in spaces as varied as professional basketball games, social media influencers’ baking feeds and Trump\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/transcripts/nx-s1-5688870\"> voter\u003c/a> surveys.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArtP-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-01-28/inland-empire-democrats-demand-for-dhs-secretary-kristi-noems-removal\">\u003cstrong>Inland Empire Democrats Demand For DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s Removal\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Democratic members of Congress from the Inland Empire on Wednesday called for the removal of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, citing what they described as aggressive and deadly immigration enforcement across the country. They’re also demanding immediate reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a news conference outside ICE’s field office in San Bernardino, Democratic Reps. Pete Aguilar, Raul Ruiz and Mark Takano, joined by immigrant rights advocates, called for Noem’s removal or impeachment and outlined a series of reforms. Those demands included limits on enforcement operations, greater transparency at detention facilities and accountability for agents involved in shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant rights advocates who joined the news conference said federal immigration enforcement under the Trump administration has fueled fear in working-class and immigrant communities, while diverting public resources away from healthcare, education and worker protections. “Instead of investing in things that would actually improve people’s lives, this administration is using billions of our tax dollars to sponsor an agenda of brutality and violence against the most vulnerable,” said Yunuen Trujillo, director of workers’ rights and labor legal services with the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
