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.",

But it’s up for sale now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen.

He says public funding should “ensure that the parks do not perpetuate historical inequities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>González says he values the “conservation opportunity” of the ranch and appreciates that the proposed budget includes equitable funding for park access. But he says the state should bring “diverse communities into the decision-making process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fact is that those who have held the land will continue to benefit through these deals,” he said. “These are not black and brown families that are getting millions of dollars” in state money, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Urban Initiatives\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ramya Sivasubramanian, deputy director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nrdc.org/about/healthy-people-thriving-communities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Environmental Justice, Healthy People & Thriving Communities Program\u003c/a> for the Natural Resources Defense Council, says that initiatives like the ones included in the governor’s budget to increase park access do provide good opportunities to “connect people in park poor communities to state parks.” But she said these alone are “insufficient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need some of those closer-to-home opportunities as well. Otherwise we’re not redressing the inequities that exist in the current distribution of our system\u003cem>.\u003c/em>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sivasubramanian pointed to several locations around Los Angeles that advocates would like California to purchase and run as a state park.

The plant, surrounded by one of the most densely populated neighborhoods along the entire coast, was set to close at the end of this year. But in November the California Public Utilities Commission \u003ca href=\"https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/business/energy-green/story/2019-11-07/concerned-about-future-power-shortages-utilities-commission-bumps-up-resource-requirements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">voted\u003c/a> to keep the plant running through 2022 amid concerns over the reliability of the state’s power supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sivasubramanian says advocates want the state to intervene in order to get the park built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s an even broader opportunity, too, which is not just looking at these places in a vacuum, but at where we can leverage park funds, affordable housing funds and other funds to meet multiple needs in a community,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Accessibility to Quality Parks\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates like Sivasubramanian argue that California should evaluate park projects in terms of public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers have found strong evidence for quality-of-life benefits from spending time in nature.

They are also subject to more criminal activity than parks in affluent white neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One \u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169204618304316\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">study\u003c/a> that looked at urban parks across the U.S. found that “inequities also emerged for park coverage, park spending per person, and park facilities, with majority-Latino cities being particularly disadvantaged.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Wilderness Society’s Urban to Wild director, Yvette Lopez-Ledesma says her job is partly to build a bridge between “nontraditional conservationists” concerned with these type of inequities and “traditional conservation groups.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The experience of the nontraditional conservationists hasn’t been valued,” she said. “But people are starting to listen.

The current drought of new parkland has surpassed that period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Newsom’s proposal is enough to stir the dormant passion of Mike Lynch, president of the California State Park Rangers Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If this thing goes, then the state is getting back in the park business again,” said Lynch. “We’ve had a huge, tremendous drought in new parks since the Great Recession.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lynch doesn’t disagree with efforts to increase access for park-poor communities. But even though the ranch doesn’t fit that bill, he sees it as an opportunity that the state needs to jump on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Opportunities are of the moment, right?” he said. “You can either take it or leave it. But it’s up for sale now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Bob Wieckowski, D-Fremont, called the available land a “once-in-a-generation” opportunity, providing accessible backcountry wilderness and protecting a watershed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s budget \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebudget.ca.gov/2020-21/pdf/BudgetSummary/FullBudgetSummary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">summary\u003c/a> acknowledges the gap in park access by framing the proposed millions of dollars of investment in the Department of Parks and Recreation as a “Parks for All” initiative. “Many Californians lack access to parks, open spaces, and natural and cultural amenities,” the section begins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The initiative has been \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/JenSiebelNewsom/status/1215804374921838592?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">championed\u003c/a> by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, California’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/first-partner/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">first partner\u003c/a> and the governor’s wife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But José González, founder of \u003ca href=\"https://latinooutdoors.org/about-us/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Latino Outdoors\u003c/a>, a group that advocates for diversifying parks, argues that California should prioritize creating parks around low-income communities of color whom the state has neglected in the past. He says public funding should “ensure that the parks do not perpetuate historical inequities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>González says he values the “conservation opportunity” of the ranch and appreciates that the proposed budget includes equitable funding for park access. But he says the state should bring “diverse communities into the decision-making process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fact is that those who have held the land will continue to benefit through these deals,” he said. “These are not black and brown families that are getting millions of dollars” in state money, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Urban Initiatives\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ramya Sivasubramanian, deputy director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nrdc.org/about/healthy-people-thriving-communities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Environmental Justice, Healthy People & Thriving Communities Program\u003c/a> for the Natural Resources Defense Council, says that initiatives like the ones included in the governor’s budget to increase park access do provide good opportunities to “connect people in park poor communities to state parks.” But she said these alone are “insufficient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need some of those closer-to-home opportunities as well. Otherwise we’re not redressing the inequities that exist in the current distribution of our system\u003cem>.\u003c/em>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sivasubramanian pointed to several locations around Los Angeles that advocates would like California to purchase and run as a state park. The proposed areas include neglected 28-acre \u003ca href=\"https://www.cityprojectca.org/blog/archives/722\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Griffith Park \u003c/a>along the Los Angeles River, a concrete-slab that’s partially cordoned off with a chain-link fence and is covered in construction debris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Redondo Beach, a city of 68,000 in the L.A. area, Mayor Bill Brand’s two\u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2019-12-12/california-clean-energy-gas-plants\">–\u003c/a>decade \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2019-12-12/california-clean-energy-gas-plants\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crusade\u003c/a> to transform a waterfront power plant into a public park has hit a snag. The plant, surrounded by one of the most densely populated neighborhoods along the entire coast, was set to close at the end of this year. But in November the California Public Utilities Commission \u003ca href=\"https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/business/energy-green/story/2019-11-07/concerned-about-future-power-shortages-utilities-commission-bumps-up-resource-requirements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">voted\u003c/a> to keep the plant running through 2022 amid concerns over the reliability of the state’s power supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sivasubramanian says advocates want the state to intervene in order to get the park built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s an even broader opportunity, too, which is not just looking at these places in a vacuum, but at where we can leverage park funds, affordable housing funds and other funds to meet multiple needs in a community,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Accessibility to Quality Parks\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates like Sivasubramanian argue that California should evaluate park projects in terms of public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers have found strong evidence for quality-of-life benefits from spending time in nature. This is especially true for children, who score better on tests, exhibit improved emotional well-being and self-discipline, and are more attentive and physically active when they live within a half-mile of a park and spend a couple of hours a week there, one \u003ca href=\"https://www.niehs.nih.gov/research/supported/translational/peph/webinars/green_spaces/urban_green_space_disparities_and_health_508.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">study\u003c/a> out of the University of Southern California found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other research in recent years has \u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169204616300846\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">illuminated\u003c/a> a disparity in the quality of parks in different neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While low-income people of color may have access to nearby parks, those green spaces tend to be smaller, dirtier, more crowded and in worse condition. They are also subject to more criminal activity than parks in affluent white neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One \u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169204618304316\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">study\u003c/a> that looked at urban parks across the U.S. found that “inequities also emerged for park coverage, park spending per person, and park facilities, with majority-Latino cities being particularly disadvantaged.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Wilderness Society’s Urban to Wild director, Yvette Lopez-Ledesma says her job is partly to build a bridge between “nontraditional conservationists” concerned with these type of inequities and “traditional conservation groups.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The experience of the nontraditional conservationists hasn’t been valued,” she said. “But people are starting to listen. We are getting closer to — not a middle ground yet — but an awareness that we have to do something. We can’t just be the same conservation movement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Ranch Land\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the N3 ranch isn’t in the center of an urban area, it is within driving distance from most major cities in the Bay Area, which a slickly produced video presentation of the property highlights.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/l_Y1RHS0jN0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/l_Y1RHS0jN0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>California Outdoor Properties \u003ca href=\"https://www.californiaoutdoorproperties.com/listing/n3-cattle-company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lists\u003c/a> the property for sale at a cost of $72 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Broker Todd Renfrew said he’s been inundated with calls from reporters asking about the ranch, a property larger than the city of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A piece of land for sale that’s more than 50,000 acres so close to the Bay Area is unheard of,” said Renfrew. “It is really unique.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The largely untouched land is habitat for tule elk, deer, quail and other animals, as well as, evergreen and native oak trees, bay laurel, California buckeye, and gray and coulter pine, according to the listing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The property also includes 200 miles of private roads that could be used for hiking and mountain biking, and 14 hunting camps with cabins that could be transformed into backpacking huts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Having partners like the Trust for Public Lands is the kind of thing that makes projects like this work,” Lynch said. “Most new parks must have this kind of collaborative approach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Latino Outdoor’s González said the ranch is “an opportunity to protect and preserve as much of the ecological diversity of the landscape… and that’s fantastic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have an opportunity for a transition period,” he said. “As we continue to do traditional — quote unquote — land acquisition deals.

Gavin Newsom said recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The more than $122 million represents the biggest estimated Proposition 47 savings to date — a $44 million increase from the previous fiscal year — but it comes as the criminal justice reform faces its biggest challenge, in the form of an \u003ca href=\"https://www.oag.ca.gov/system/files/initiatives/pdfs/17-0044%20%28Reducing%20Crime%29.pdf\">initiative\u003c/a> slated for the November ballot that would roll back some of its provisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Lenore Anderson, founder and president of Californians for Safety and Justice, which wrote Proposition 47, said she sees the budget news as an opportunity to educate voters about the benefits of keeping the reforms in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are very excited that the amount of money saved annually keeps increasing — that’s certainly the goal,” she said. “The idea was not just reduce incarceration at the state level, but to reduce the imbalanced way that state public safety dollars are invested in the state. We can’t continue to put all the money at the back end in these sort of bloated and costly prisons and expect an effective approach to public safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 47, which was approved by 59% of voters in 2014, calls for many nonviolent crimes, such as drug possession and petty theft, to be charged as misdemeanors instead of felonies. That’s resulted in fewer people being sent to state prisons, providing the monetary savings reflected in Newsom’s budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11796447\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"3070\" height=\"2360\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47.png 3070w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-160x123.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-800x615.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1020x784.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1200x922.png 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1920x1476.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3070px) 100vw, 3070px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anderson said the result of that savings is two-fold: One, the money is reinvested in programs aimed at preventing future crimes from occurring. That includes trauma recovery services for victims and public school programs that support kids who are at risk of dropping out or are victims of crime themselves. It also includes grants for mental health, substance abuse and diversion programs for criminal offenders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The number one predictor of someone becoming a victim of crime in the future is if they have been a victim in the past,” Anderson said. “When we talk about giving victims a chance to recover from crime and get safe and get on a pathway to recovery, we are actually talking about preventing future victimization.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second impact: Californians are no longer being sent to costly private prisons in other states. Anderson said the benefits of that change are enormous as well, since inmates have a much better chance of succeeding once they exit prison if they’ve been able to stay connected with family and community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure has also allowed \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2015/08/30/435513407/their-crimes-reclassified-some-californian-felons-get-a-second-chance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">some Californians to turn their lives around\u003c/a>. The law allows people previously convicted of these nonviolent crimes to petition courts to have their sentences reduced to misdemeanors, a change that has allowed many people to leave prison or jail early, and to wipe clean past conviction records that can \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11692123/criminal-convictions-vex-8-million-californians-advocates-see-hope-for-relief\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">prevent ex-offenders from getting jobs\u003c/a> or participating in society in other ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11796451\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"3930\" height=\"2135\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1.png 3930w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1-160x87.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1-800x435.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1-1020x554.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1-1200x652.png 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1-1920x1043.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3930px) 100vw, 3930px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But law enforcement groups have long opposed the measure, saying it has resulted in an uptick of shoplifting and property crimes, such as car break-ins. They are running a ballot measure in November that would allow prosecutors to charge some theft and fraud crimes as felonies again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It would also require people who benefited from Proposition 47 by being charged with misdemeanors instead of felonies to hand over their DNA to state and federal government databases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State assemblyman Jim Cooper, D-Elk Grove, who was a 30-year law enforcement veteran before being elected to the Legislature, helped write the new ballot measure.

Gavin Newsom said recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The more than $122 million represents the biggest estimated Proposition 47 savings to date — a $44 million increase from the previous fiscal year — but it comes as the criminal justice reform faces its biggest challenge, in the form of an \u003ca href=\"https://www.oag.ca.gov/system/files/initiatives/pdfs/17-0044%20%28Reducing%20Crime%29.pdf\">initiative\u003c/a> slated for the November ballot that would roll back some of its provisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Lenore Anderson, founder and president of Californians for Safety and Justice, which wrote Proposition 47, said she sees the budget news as an opportunity to educate voters about the benefits of keeping the reforms in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are very excited that the amount of money saved annually keeps increasing — that’s certainly the goal,” she said. “The idea was not just reduce incarceration at the state level, but to reduce the imbalanced way that state public safety dollars are invested in the state. We can’t continue to put all the money at the back end in these sort of bloated and costly prisons and expect an effective approach to public safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 47, which was approved by 59% of voters in 2014, calls for many nonviolent crimes, such as drug possession and petty theft, to be charged as misdemeanors instead of felonies. That’s resulted in fewer people being sent to state prisons, providing the monetary savings reflected in Newsom’s budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11796447\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"3070\" height=\"2360\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47.png 3070w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-160x123.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-800x615.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1020x784.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1200x922.png 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/prop-47-1920x1476.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3070px) 100vw, 3070px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anderson said the result of that savings is two-fold: One, the money is reinvested in programs aimed at preventing future crimes from occurring. That includes trauma recovery services for victims and public school programs that support kids who are at risk of dropping out or are victims of crime themselves. It also includes grants for mental health, substance abuse and diversion programs for criminal offenders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The number one predictor of someone becoming a victim of crime in the future is if they have been a victim in the past,” Anderson said. “When we talk about giving victims a chance to recover from crime and get safe and get on a pathway to recovery, we are actually talking about preventing future victimization.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second impact: Californians are no longer being sent to costly private prisons in other states. Anderson said the benefits of that change are enormous as well, since inmates have a much better chance of succeeding once they exit prison if they’ve been able to stay connected with family and community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure has also allowed \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2015/08/30/435513407/their-crimes-reclassified-some-californian-felons-get-a-second-chance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">some Californians to turn their lives around\u003c/a>.

"content": "\u003cp>Declaring that moral persuasion and economic incentives aren’t working to bring people in from the sidewalks, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s task force on homelessness called Monday for a “legally enforceable mandate” that would force municipalities and the state to house the growing number of homeless Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal, which came as Newsom kicked off a \u003ca href=\"https://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2020/01/12/gov-newsom-to-embark-on-week-long-homeless-tour-throughout-state/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">weeklong tour\u003c/a> of the state aimed at drawing attention to the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-homelessness-crisis-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homelessness crisis\u003c/a>, urged the Legislature to put a measure on the November ballot that would force California cities and counties to take steps to provide housing for the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-homelessness-crisis-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">more than 150,000\u003c/a> homeless people in the state, or face legal action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such a measure would require a two-thirds vote of both legislative houses to be brought to voters. California law does not currently penalize the state or local governments for failing to reduce homeless populations, or to make housing sufficiently available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf\"]'Housing is health. And to recognize that health dollars should appropriately be used to support housing is a very important part of our recommendations.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Los Angeles County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas and Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg, who co-chair the governor’s 13-member Council of Regional Homeless Advisors, have been \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/commentary/california-should-make-clear-there-is-a-right-to-housing-not-simply-shelter/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">advocating \u003c/a>some sort of enforceable “right” to sleep indoors since the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit \u003ca href=\"https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2018/09/04/15-35845.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">struck down laws against homeless camping\u003c/a>. That ruling, which the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/why-boise-matters-kamala-harris-poll-numbers-endangered-species-and-rehabilitation-through-college/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">U.S. Supreme Court let stand\u003c/a> just last month, dramatically limited cities’ enforcement options, finding it to be cruel and unusual punishment to prosecute people for sleeping on the street if sufficient shelter isn’t available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“California mandates free public education for all of its children and subsidized health insurance for its low-income residents. It requires its subdivisions to provide services to people with developmental disabilities and foster children,” the council wrote in a letter signed by both elected officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yet everything that state, county and city governments do to alleviate this crisis is voluntary. There is no mandate to ensure people can live indoors, no legal accountability for failing to do so, no enforceable housing production standard and no requirement to consolidate and coordinate funding streams across jurisdictions. The results speak for themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The council’s recommendation stops short of Steinberg’s and Ridley-Thomas’ initial call for a “right to shelter,” which would not only have required cities to provide immediate beds, but also obligated people experiencing homelessness to come inside. But it adds momentum to the strategy of elevating litigation as a tool to accomplish what compassion and money haven’t been able to do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, visiting a homelessness program in Nevada County, \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/CAgovernor/videos/2568716870024650/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">said Monday\u003c/a> he “would lean in the direction” of speedily deploying a legal “obligation” to supply sufficient services and housing, adding that “a number of cities and counties” have volunteered to do demonstration projects over the next several months, “not the next few years.” (Ridley-Thomas later said he would propose such a pilot in L.A. County this week.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I broadly have been encouraging this debate about obligations,” the governor said, adding that “there’s a distinction between rights and obligations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without elaborating on that distinction, he seconded the task force’s point that many of the state’s responsibilities stem from legal mandates: “We do it in almost every other respect,” Newsom said. “On this issue we don’t, and I think that’s missing. The question is how do you do it ... . This is not black and white. This is tough stuff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Municipalities made it clear they would need more clarification.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A legally enforceable mandate can only work with clarity of who’s obligated to do what and what new sustainable resources will fund it; that’s the ticket for clear expectations and accountability,” said Graham Knaus, executive director of the California State Association of Counties, in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steinberg, meanwhile, called Monday’s proposal an improvement on the original “right to shelter” concept, saying a mandate by any name would still have the force of law. The point, the mayor said, is to give the courts a legal “last resort” to address pleas to supersede political gridlock, just as federal laws have in the past armed judges to combat other social crises. “It’s analogous to desegregation,” Steinberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/klnd87KdQSE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The task force’s proposal would let a “designated public official” sue the government for not doing enough to offer emergency and permanent housing to the homeless. A judge could then intervene to force a city to approve an emergency shelter, for example, or redirect budget funds to homelessness services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal, however, so far lacks specifics on how taxpayers would pay for such a mandate. The letter released by the task force, which includes local elected officials from large and small cities, states that “more state resources will undoubtedly be required” but includes no estimate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State and local governments in recent years have poured billions into combating homelessness, only to watch the problem worsen as ever-rising rents drive Californians to the streets faster than they can be re-housed. On Friday, for the second straight year, Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2020/01/gavin-newsom-budget-california-trump-housing-homelessness-schools-wildfire-surplus/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">proposed more than $1 billion in new state funds\u003c/a> to fight homelessness, calling it “the issue that defines our times” in California. But the state’s “point-in-time” homeless count jumped 17% between 2018 and last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Diego County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher, a task force member, said leverage is needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do the things we are required to do first ... then for everything else we try very hard,” Fletcher said. “Absent a legally enforceable obligation, I believe people will continue to try very hard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a legal mandate would arm jurisdictions to tackle “the underlying problem which is poverty,” rather than appease communities with shelter beds, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Putting the Onus on Government \u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Steinberg and Ridley-Thomas \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-08-07/newsom-sidesteps-right-to-shelter-plan-but-says-homeless-on-streets-cannot-persist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">floated the idea\u003c/a> of a statewide “right to shelter” law last year. Spurred by decades-old litigation, \u003ca href=\"https://www.marketplace.org/2015/09/30/behind-new-yorks-right-shelter-policy/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York state\u003c/a> has a “right to shelter” policy that makes its state and local governments legally liable for having emergency shelter beds available for every unhoused person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many credit “right to shelter” for New York’s success in reducing the number of people sleeping on the streets, Newsom and advocates for the homeless have balked at the idea. Some advocates fear it would divert finite funding from \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-homelessness-crisis-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">permanent supportive housing\u003c/a>, which experts say is a more long-term, albeit expensive solution; others worry about cost and potential civil liberties violations that might arise from requiring a homeless person to accept shelter if it’s available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"homelessness\"]“The reason why right to shelter is a mistake is because it diverts resources from the solution, which is housing, not shelter,” said Sharon Rapport, California policy director for the Corporation for Supportive Housing and a member of the task force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the policy proposed by the task force, a local government would be required to develop a plan to house the vast majority of its homeless people within “an aggressive but reasonable period of time.” “Reasonable” is not defined in the letter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However Steinberg said that, in the case of Sacramento, “aggressive but reasonable” might mean a 1,500-person annual reduction in the city’s 5,500-plus homeless population, and housing the “the vast majority” within five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates on the homelessness issue said more specifics are needed, but applauded the task force’s recommendations as a philosophical pushback, at least, against efforts to criminalize living on the streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any kind of policies that are promoting locking up people or warehousing people or punishing people for being homeless, the council is saying those policies have been very ineffective in the past,” Rapport said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city of Bakersfield recently proposed ramping up enforcement of low-level drug offenses to get people off the streets there, and advocates have expressed concern that the Trump administration’s threats to do something about homelessness in California may involve heavier use of law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Homelessness Czar\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The task force also called for a single point-person on homelessness, a Newsom campaign promise that devolved in his first year into confusion over who, at any given point, was his “homelessness czar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Various administration members, including Steinberg and Ridley-Thomas, Secretary of Health and Human Services Mark Ghaly and adviser Jason Elliott, have filled the role — so many that last week, Newsom headed off press questions by declaring tartly, “You want to know who’s the homeless czar? I’m the homeless czar in the state of California.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the issue of who is actually overseeing the state’s disparate homelessness initiatives — across multiple bureaucracies from prisons to health care — is still pressing, at least according to the homelessness task force. One of their key recommendations would “create a single point of authority of homelessness in state government,” suggesting a high-level official that reports directly to Newsom. Another calls for a comprehensive accounting of existing funding for homelessness, housing, mental health and substance abuse treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still other recommendations have already been incorporated into Newsom’s proposed homelessness budget, including a “flexible fund” that service providers can tap for uses from emergency rental assistance to building shelters. The task force also proposed revamping the state’s health insurance program to draw down more federal dollars for homelessness-related services, a key pillar of the strategy Newsom unveiled last week. Doing so would require a waiver from the federal government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, a member of the task force, said that Medi-Cal reform proposal is key to the their blueprint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Housing is health,” she said. “And to recognize that health dollars should appropriately be used to support housing is a very important part of our recommendations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More controversial proposals included an executive order expanding the state’s new rent-gouging law to cover more households and legislation exempting from environmental review any new housing project for people at risk of homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California has strict laws that make it difficult to detain mentally ill people against their will for a prolonged period of time. Families of homeless loved ones struggling with schizophrenia or other disorders often blame the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2018/08/california-homeless-mental-illness-conservatorship-law/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lanterman-Petris-Short Act\u003c/a>, a late 1960s law intended to curb the overuse of asylums, for precluding necessary care. New York’s commitment laws are less stringent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Newsom talked vaguely of reforming the law last week, such reforms are conspicuously absent from the task force’s report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CalMatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

I’m the homeless czar in the state of California.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the issue of who is actually overseeing the state’s disparate homelessness initiatives — across multiple bureaucracies from prisons to health care — is still pressing, at least according to the homelessness task force. One of their key recommendations would “create a single point of authority of homelessness in state government,” suggesting a high-level official that reports directly to Newsom. Another calls for a comprehensive accounting of existing funding for homelessness, housing, mental health and substance abuse treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still other recommendations have already been incorporated into Newsom’s proposed homelessness budget, including a “flexible fund” that service providers can tap for uses from emergency rental assistance to building shelters. The task force also proposed revamping the state’s health insurance program to draw down more federal dollars for homelessness-related services, a key pillar of the strategy Newsom unveiled last week. Doing so would require a waiver from the federal government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, a member of the task force, said that Medi-Cal reform proposal is key to the their blueprint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Housing is health,” she said. “And to recognize that health dollars should appropriately be used to support housing is a very important part of our recommendations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More controversial proposals included an executive order expanding the state’s new rent-gouging law to cover more households and legislation exempting from environmental review any new housing project for people at risk of homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California has strict laws that make it difficult to detain mentally ill people against their will for a prolonged period of time. Families of homeless loved ones struggling with schizophrenia or other disorders often blame the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2018/08/california-homeless-mental-illness-conservatorship-law/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lanterman-Petris-Short Act\u003c/a>, a late 1960s law intended to curb the overuse of asylums, for precluding necessary care. New York’s commitment laws are less stringent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Newsom talked vaguely of reforming the law last week, such reforms are conspicuously absent from the task force’s report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CalMatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
