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

The spread of the coronavirus, which has claimed more than 1,000 lives in Los Angeles County, has further clarified the issue’s importance, Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Easy access to health care is a huge priority for me, as is adding a public option,” Smith said. “I think this moment, more than any other in my lifetime, certainly speaks to the need for everybody to be able to have health care as a human right.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia, a former Navy fighter pilot, who declined to be interviewed, has advocated for repealing the Affordable Care Act. \u003ca href=\"https://soundcloud.com/thetalkofsantaclarita\">In a 2019 interview\u003c/a> with “The Talk of Santa Clarita” podcast, he called it “flawed enough to start over.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee spent nearly $1 million on a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orcWN1hipY0&\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">local cable ad\u003c/a> attacking Garcia’s health care positions, while declaring that “more than ever, we need a leader who will put our health and safety first.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But eager to retake the seat, Republicans are leveraging the coronavirus-induced economic crash to sharpen their focus on Smith’s most controversial vote in the state Legislature: her support of \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Assembly Bill 5\u003c/a>, which limits the number of California workers who are classified as independent contractors, rather than employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to make it easier right now for the gig economy to restart — to have independent contractors be able to go to work in whatever capacity they can during the stay at home,” Garcia said last week, during the lone debate of the special election campaign, which took place via video conference.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An ad buy from the National Republican Congressional Committee on cable and broadcast TV \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHlCsb9rl_Q&\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">slammed Smith\u003c/a> for “threatening jobs” with her vote, and asked voters to “imagine her recklessness during these frightening times.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the debate, Smith responded that if companies aren’t classifying workers as employees, they aren’t paying into “the very critical programs that we are trying to utilize in this exact moment, like our state’s unemployment insurance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Holding elected office has given Smith opportunities to project leadership during the pandemic. She’s held volunteer events in the district and was among the bipartisan group of assemblymembers who convened in Sacramento last week to demand more say in how Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11813179/state-lawmakers-want-more-say-in-californias-covid-19-response\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">spending money\u003c/a> in response to the crisis — moves her campaign was quick to tout in an ad \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUcG_KKQO_g&\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unveiled on Wednesday\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a time when what we need is leaders who are willing to step up and roll up their sleeves and get to work,” Smith said. “And so when I was called by my local senior center to say, ‘Hey, could you come spend an afternoon with us handing out meals for our Meals on Wheels program?’ I was all in.”\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\nBut Republicans have questioned Smith’s leadership ability by pointing to the cancellation of a March 4 hearing of the Joint Legislative Committee on Emergency Management, which she chairs. The meeting was scheduled to review an audit detailing the state’s ability to respond to natural disasters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think you’ve seen Christy Smith absolutely fail to lead on coronavirus,” said NRCC spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair. “She could have changed the meeting for it to be focused on the coronavirus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith said the committee has no direct oversight over the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, which has taken a leading role in the state’s pandemic response.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The spread of the coronavirus and the state’s subsequent stay-at-home order have precipitated more dramatic changes in how the election will be conducted — and in the ways both sides have tried to reach voters during a condensed campaign calendar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under an executive order signed by Newsom in late March, every voter in the 25th District will receive a mail-in ballot with a postage-paid return envelope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both \u003ca href=\"https://lavote.net/home/voting-elections/voting-options/early-voting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://recorder.countyofventura.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/CD-25-VBM-Information-For-Web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ventura\u003c/a> counties, where the seat resides, will also offer limited opportunities for in-person voting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although \u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/blog/will-mail-in-ballots-benefit-one-party/\">recent studies have suggested\u003c/a> that neither party necessarily benefits from all-mail elections, Democrats familiar with the district worry that a special election conducted predominately by mail will produce an older and whiter electorate that is more friendly to Garcia. It could also make a surge in turnout unlikely in the more Democratic cities of Lancaster and Palmdale, which were key to Hill’s 2018 victory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With the coronavirus, I think health care will be an issue. But that’s not what’s going to affect it, it’s going to be turnout,” said Steve Fox, the former Democratic assemblyman from Lancaster. “Republicans tend to vote by mail, they’re going to have a higher turnout because of that. Democrats are not going to come out during this virus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent data on vote-by-mail patterns in the 25th District back that up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With a little less than two weeks before the election, 29% of Republicans have returned their ballots — compared to 18% of Democrats, according to Political Data, Inc., a voter information firm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the March primary, Democratic voters in the district mailed back just 23% of ballots they received, compared with 33% sent back by Republican mail voters, a trend also reflected in the 2018 general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Motivating voters to send in their ballots has taken on a different look since California’s stay-at-home order went into effect — just weeks after Smith and Garcia finished atop the March 3 primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>”Like so many people are, we’re doing all kinds of Zoom get togethers, and we’re using the telephone quite a bit more than we ever had before,” Smith said. “So it has absolutely changed the way that we operate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Coverage\" postID=news_11815155,news_11812489,news_11813179] Conversations with supporters that might have taken place in living rooms or on canvass walks just months ago are now happening virtually — accompanied by the typical pitfalls. On Wednesday, Smith released an apology for comments she made about Garcia’s military service that were captured on a video conference with supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia’s campaign is also investing in phone banking to reach voters at home, said Mark Hershey, a local Republican activist, who chairs the GOP’s 38th Assembly District Central Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hershey said President Trump’s enthusiastic endorsement of Garcia could also help drive Republicans to vote in the special election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Knight’s campaign] tried to stay noncommittal, and the Trump voters probably didn’t come out like they could or should or would have if they had been more supportive,” Hershey said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Smith questions that logic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s an endorsement that helps that much,” Smith said. “The president lost this district resoundingly in 2016, and I don’t think voters have gained any affinity for him, particularly in the moment of this crisis, where the response has not only been lackluster, but it has put more Americans at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As voter mobilization is pursued virtually, the two parties have also sparred over the California law that allows voters to designate someone else to return their ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have called on Newsom to suspend what they call the “ballot harvesting” law in order to maintain physical distancing, but a spokesman for the California Secretary of State’s Office confirmed that the practice will remain on the books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the millions spent by both parties on the special election, the outcome could have little impact on the November rematch between Garcia and Smith, who will again face off in the general election for the full two-year term beginning in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ongoing spread and evolving toll of the coronavirus could reshape voter perceptions and necessitate changes to how the November election is conducted. And unlike a special election in May, the presidential election in November will have a higher voter turnout, which typically helps Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And whoever is elected in May will likely have to go on the record with positions on a range of issues responding to the pandemic. Votes on bills to provide aid to state and local governments or legislation on liability protections to shield hospitals and businesses from lawsuits could provide fodder for a whole new round of attack ads come fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The spread of the coronavirus, which has claimed more than 1,000 lives in Los Angeles County, has further clarified the issue’s importance, Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Easy access to health care is a huge priority for me, as is adding a public option,” Smith said. “I think this moment, more than any other in my lifetime, certainly speaks to the need for everybody to be able to have health care as a human right.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia, a former Navy fighter pilot, who declined to be interviewed, has advocated for repealing the Affordable Care Act. \u003ca href=\"https://soundcloud.com/thetalkofsantaclarita\">In a 2019 interview\u003c/a> with “The Talk of Santa Clarita” podcast, he called it “flawed enough to start over.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee spent nearly $1 million on a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orcWN1hipY0&\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">local cable ad\u003c/a> attacking Garcia’s health care positions, while declaring that “more than ever, we need a leader who will put our health and safety first.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But eager to retake the seat, Republicans are leveraging the coronavirus-induced economic crash to sharpen their focus on Smith’s most controversial vote in the state Legislature: her support of \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Assembly Bill 5\u003c/a>, which limits the number of California workers who are classified as independent contractors, rather than employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to make it easier right now for the gig economy to restart — to have independent contractors be able to go to work in whatever capacity they can during the stay at home,” Garcia said last week, during the lone debate of the special election campaign, which took place via video conference.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An ad buy from the National Republican Congressional Committee on cable and broadcast TV \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHlCsb9rl_Q&\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">slammed Smith\u003c/a> for “threatening jobs” with her vote, and asked voters to “imagine her recklessness during these frightening times.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the debate, Smith responded that if companies aren’t classifying workers as employees, they aren’t paying into “the very critical programs that we are trying to utilize in this exact moment, like our state’s unemployment insurance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Holding elected office has given Smith opportunities to project leadership during the pandemic. She’s held volunteer events in the district and was among the bipartisan group of assemblymembers who convened in Sacramento last week to demand more say in how Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11813179/state-lawmakers-want-more-say-in-californias-covid-19-response\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">spending money\u003c/a> in response to the crisis — moves her campaign was quick to tout in an ad \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUcG_KKQO_g&\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unveiled on Wednesday\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a time when what we need is leaders who are willing to step up and roll up their sleeves and get to work,” Smith said. “And so when I was called by my local senior center to say, ‘Hey, could you come spend an afternoon with us handing out meals for our Meals on Wheels program?’ I was all in.”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It could also make a surge in turnout unlikely in the more Democratic cities of Lancaster and Palmdale, which were key to Hill’s 2018 victory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With the coronavirus, I think health care will be an issue. But that’s not what’s going to affect it, it’s going to be turnout,” said Steve Fox, the former Democratic assemblyman from Lancaster. “Republicans tend to vote by mail, they’re going to have a higher turnout because of that. Democrats are not going to come out during this virus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent data on vote-by-mail patterns in the 25th District back that up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With a little less than two weeks before the election, 29% of Republicans have returned their ballots — compared to 18% of Democrats, according to Political Data, Inc., a voter information firm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the March primary, Democratic voters in the district mailed back just 23% of ballots they received, compared with 33% sent back by Republican mail voters, a trend also reflected in the 2018 general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Motivating voters to send in their ballots has taken on a different look since California’s stay-at-home order went into effect — just weeks after Smith and Garcia finished atop the March 3 primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>”Like so many people are, we’re doing all kinds of Zoom get togethers, and we’re using the telephone quite a bit more than we ever had before,” Smith said. “So it has absolutely changed the way that we operate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On Wednesday, Smith released an apology for comments she made about Garcia’s military service that were captured on a video conference with supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia’s campaign is also investing in phone banking to reach voters at home, said Mark Hershey, a local Republican activist, who chairs the GOP’s 38th Assembly District Central Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hershey said President Trump’s enthusiastic endorsement of Garcia could also help drive Republicans to vote in the special election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Knight’s campaign] tried to stay noncommittal, and the Trump voters probably didn’t come out like they could or should or would have if they had been more supportive,” Hershey said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Smith questions that logic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s an endorsement that helps that much,” Smith said. “The president lost this district resoundingly in 2016, and I don’t think voters have gained any affinity for him, particularly in the moment of this crisis, where the response has not only been lackluster, but it has put more Americans at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As voter mobilization is pursued virtually, the two parties have also sparred over the California law that allows voters to designate someone else to return their ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have called on Newsom to suspend what they call the “ballot harvesting” law in order to maintain physical distancing, but a spokesman for the California Secretary of State’s Office confirmed that the practice will remain on the books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the millions spent by both parties on the special election, the outcome could have little impact on the November rematch between Garcia and Smith, who will again face off in the general election for the full two-year term beginning in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ongoing spread and evolving toll of the coronavirus could reshape voter perceptions and necessitate changes to how the November election is conducted. And unlike a special election in May, the presidential election in November will have a higher voter turnout, which typically helps Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And whoever is elected in May will likely have to go on the record with positions on a range of issues responding to the pandemic. Votes on bills to provide aid to state and local governments or legislation on liability protections to shield hospitals and businesses from lawsuits could provide fodder for a whole new round of attack ads come fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And if you’ve been inside one of the 1,362 rooms or 138 suites on the building’s 39 floors, you’ve probably encountered something that has been cleaned by Larrilou Carumba.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carumba has worked as a housekeeper at the Marriott Marquis for eight years. She estimates that she’s changed tens of thousands of beds and folded hundreds of thousands of towels. But because of the coronavirus pandemic, she has been without work now for a month and a half — and counting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of income has been hard. Carumba is a single mom with three kids. She said she's spent the last two years saving tips and taking on extra shifts to pay off $35,000 in credit card debt from a toxic relationship that she escaped. Carumba was getting close to debt free, she said, until last year, when her landlord raised the rent by $800 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11813762\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11813762 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/Larrilou-Carumba-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Larrilou Carumba has been a housekeeper at the Marriott Marquis for eight years, but has been out of work for weeks due to the coronavirus pandemic.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/Larrilou-Carumba-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/Larrilou-Carumba-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/Larrilou-Carumba-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/Larrilou-Carumba.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Larrilou Carumba has been a housekeeper at the Marriott Marquis for eight years, but has been out of work for weeks due to the coronavirus pandemic. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Unite Here!

She managed her health with pills and diet for the next nine years and through two more pregnancies until her doctor noticed the tired look in her eyes again. He ordered her to begin dialysis and to sign up for the waiting list for a kidney transplant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was strange and scary, Jimenez said, waiting for someone to die so she could live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s sitting in your mind, it just can never leave you alone,” she said. “You’re just thinking about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then the coronavirus pandemic hit. California officials ordered everyone to stay at home, except to get fresh air and go to medical appointments. On day two, in March, Jimenez got in her car in San Pablo, waved goodbye to her 3-year-old son and drove to her regular Wednesday dialysis appointment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The roads were deserted.

"content": "\u003cp>A large picture of the Golden Gate Bridge hangs above the couch in Krystal McMorris’ living room, a nod to her hometown of San Francisco. Her walls are decorated with family photos of her fiance and his 13-year-old son.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've made this a home,” McMorris, 29, said of their two-bedroom apartment in Alameda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A third room serves as McMorris’ office, where she works as the on-site property manager for the complex Playa Del Alameda Apartments. As part of her employment package, she lives there rent free. In exchange, she collects rent and handles any resident concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because it's a small site, I pretty much did everything,” McMorris said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But all of that changed when she received notice that the company she had worked with for six years was laying her off. The notice was dated March 19, two days after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11806988/sheltering-in-place-what-you-need-to-know\">Bay Area counties began rolling out shelter-in-place orders\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was pretty shocked. It was a slap in the face, just being with a company for so long,” McMorris said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company also told her she had 30 days to move out. And she became afraid of having to look for a place, as fears of the coronavirus were ramping up. As California’s shelter-in-place order went into effect, McMorris was among millions of Californians who lost their jobs, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809833/stressed-about-paying-your-april-rent-check-here-first\">with many unable to pay rent\u003c/a>, as non-essential businesses were forced to close.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the end of March, right when everyone realized this is serious,” she said. “All this stuff is happening. I thought the least they could do is give me a little time to transition.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McMorris wrote a personal plea to the company, FPI Management, a real-estate corporation with a portfolio of over 100,000 units nationwide. She told them she was 10 weeks pregnant with her first child and wanted more time to safely find housing after the COVID-19 health emergency had passed. She worried she would be putting herself, and her unborn child, at risk by attending open houses and interacting with strangers in the middle of a pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Anne Tamiko Omura, executive director of the Eviction Defense Center, an Oakland-based tenant rights group\"]'Corporations are getting bailouts. Small businesses are getting bailouts. But tenants are still expected to make good on their financial obligations down to the penny.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was afraid of what would happen to my family,” she said. “Just in the midst of us being uprooted so drastically, like there's no way we could have known this was coming at any point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But FPI Management refused to budge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email reply, her manager said the company could have kicked her out after three days because her housing was tied to her job, which she no longer had. They went on to threaten her with legal action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the courts are closed out of concern for public safety during the coronavirus pandemic, landlords are still starting the eviction process and threatening to remove tenants, according to housing rights advocates in the Bay Area. It’s unclear how many renters are facing eviction threats, but some attorneys say they’re getting concerned calls from tenants every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would say this is the most egregious for sure, but there's definitely eviction activity going on, despite everything that's happening right now,” said Anne Tamiko Omura, executive director of the Eviction Defense Center, an Oakland-based tenant rights group representing McMorris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omura said landlords don’t have the legal right to enforce an eviction until the state’s moratorium is lifted, likely months from now. But that hasn’t stopped companies like FPI Management from trying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Krystal McMorris\"]'I have to speak up and speak for what's right, or me and my family will be homeless.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McMorris’ case even prompted the Alameda City Attorney’s Office to get involved. After several conversations with FPI, \u003ca href=\"https://www.alamedaca.gov/Shortcut-Content/News-Media/State-and-local-laws-limit-unnecessary-evictions-during-COVID-19-pandemic\">the city issued a press statement\u003c/a> that said, despite an unusual rent arrangement, McMorris is still protected under the local and state eviction moratoriums. “We managed to get them to understand the laws and that this person can’t be evicted in this moment,” City Attorney Yibin Shen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omura said McMorris, like other renters who are unable to pay, might be able to stay put for now. But the eviction moratoriums don’t prevent landlords from demanding back rent once those protections are lifted. Omura said that renters should be in line for some aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Corporations are getting bailouts. Small businesses are getting bailouts. But tenants are still expected to make good on their financial obligations down to the penny,” Omura said. “Nobody’s waiving a dime for them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, FPI Management emailed McMorris saying they could charge her $3,030 a month in rent if she sticks around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"resource\" label=\"coronavirus resources\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>FPI Management Chief Operating Officer David Divine said in an emailed statement to KQED, “FPI is compassionate to Ms. McMorris’ situation,” and has not forced her to pay April rent. “FPI’s actions have been and shall remain consistent with all applicable laws, orders and eviction moratoriums in effect.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at her apartment, McMorris has started packing her belongings. Her walls are now bare, except for a black-and-white ultrasound photo from her first doctor’s appointment. Despite the stress of an uncertain living arrangement, McMorris remains determined to fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With this I have to fight. I have a baby on the way. It’s not just me anymore. It's not just my fiance and my step child. It’s a whole new baby that I'm 100% responsible for,” McMorris said. “I have to speak up and speak for what's right, or me and my family will be homeless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, she’s still looking for a new job and affordable housing — two things that seem insurmountable when she, like everyone in the Bay Area, is still sheltering in place.\u003c/p>\n\n",

She told them she was 10 weeks pregnant with her first child and wanted more time to safely find housing after the COVID-19 health emergency had passed.

The same goes for drilling down to the accompanying tables showing stay-at-home trends and week-over-week changes. It takes some work.

This order applies to the six Bay Area counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara, as well as the City of Berkeley, an independent public health jurisdiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new order eases some restrictions from the previous order, including:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Certain construction projects, so long as the project complies with the safety protocols in the order.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Some businesses that operate primarily outdoors, like wholesale and retail nurseries, landscapers, gardeners and other businesses that provide outdoor services. This \u003cstrong>does not\u003c/strong> include restaurants or bars with outdoor seating.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Certain outdoor activities — like skate parks, golf courses and fields — that were previously shut down can resume, so long as there is no shared equipment or physical contact.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The order also allows certain child care facilities, including \"summer camps and other educational or recreational institutions or programs,\" to reopen for the children of essential workers.
