I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

As journalists and respected investigative groups tried to make sense of the incident, social media exploded with unfounded accusations from Hamas and its supporters that the missile had been fired by Israel and had killed close to 500 people.

They are being manipulated by other people, by state-sponsored actors, and by the very platforms, and we are no longer informed citizens.’[/pullquote]“Let’s start with Twitter. (I refuse to call it X.) They just get a big fat F,” Farid said. “It is clear that Twitter has become more of a hellhole than it was pre-Musk, and it continues to decline.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Elon Musk \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/27/technology/elon-musk-twitter-deal-complete.html\">bought Twitter last year\u003c/a> — and then changed its name to “X “— many observers say the social media platform, long influential among journalists, has increasingly become a \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/10/18/hamas-social-media-terror/\">de facto rebroadcaster \u003c/a>of \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/10/11/tiktok-youtube-israel-hamas-content-moderation/\">unfiltered war propaganda \u003c/a>posted on even more loosely moderated, conspiracy-prone platforms like Telegram.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if X gets an “F” from hate-speech watchers during this latest conflict, Meta, which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp and has considerably greater reach, gets something just north of F, said Callum Hood, head of research for the Center for Countering Digital Hate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I know that one of the most popular posts on Facebook — according to data that I know they have access to, as well — is footage of an execution, with no warnings on it, at all, I have very serious concerns about what they’re doing,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement to KQED, a Meta spokesperson pointed to a company blog post about its \u003ca href=\"https://about.fb.com/news/2023/10/metas-efforts-regarding-israel-hamas-war/\">special operations center\u003c/a> staffed with experts, including fluent Hebrew and Arabic speakers, “working around the clock to monitor our platforms while protecting people’s ability to use our apps to shed light on important developments happening on the ground.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘These are not new problems’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Content moderation is no easy task, especially when individuals with strong opinions post or repost factually inaccurate material, said Jillian York, director for international freedom of expression with the San Francisco-based Electronic Frontier Foundation. Last week, her group \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/10/social-media-platforms-must-do-better-when-handling-misinformation-especially\">posted an open letter\u003c/a> calling on social media companies to better handle misinformation, particularly during major international conflicts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These are not new problems,” York said. “We want platforms to ensure that their content moderation practices are transparent and consistent. We want them to sufficiently resource in every location in which they operate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every researcher KQED spoke to also lamented the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11905230/do-federal-lawmakers-have-the-stomach-to-rein-in-big-tech\">lack of federal regulation\u003c/a> of social media platforms. They noted how, in contrast, the European Union’s Digital Services Act went into effect a couple of months ago, requiring large platforms to \u003ca href=\"https://www.theverge.com/23845672/eu-digital-services-act-explained\">employ robust procedures\u003c/a> to tackle systemic risks and abuse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a blog post, Meta acknowledged growing concerns among users that Facebook and Instagram appeared to be algorithmically curtailing the reach of certain posts, a technique known as “shadow banning.” The company characterized those incidents as “bugs,” which it says have since been fixed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This bug affected accounts equally around the globe – not only people trying to post about what’s happening in Israel and Gaza – and it had nothing to do with the subject matter of the content,” Meta said in its blog post.[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"disinformation\"]But researchers say their ability to monitor what’s actually gaining traction on Meta’s platforms through the company’s application programming interfaces, or APIs, has been limited. Crowdtangle is another analytics tool researchers have found useful in monitoring content — one they say Meta bought but has failed to maintain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Facebook and Instagram is harder to study than ever. The truth is, I don’t think any organization has a very good grip on how disinformational hate is spreading on Facebook or Instagram right now because every possible tool that we once had for investigating it, they’re unusable,” Hood said. “Overall, maybe there’s less on these platforms, but we can’t actually say.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Hood and other researchers, a similar lack of transparency makes it impossible to independently assess the efforts of Tiktok, which\u003ca href=\"https://newsroom.tiktok.com/en-us/our-continued-actions-to-protect-the-tiktok-community-during-the-israelhamas-war\"> recently announced \u003c/a>it launched a command center that brings together “key members” of its “40,000-strong global team of safety professionals,” and was working to remove posts that support or incite violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hood and Farid, among many other observers, say these recent efforts are largely ineffective because they are overlaid on top of an ad-based business model designed to keep users on the platforms by promoting engaging content, regardless of its veracity.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘Stop getting your information from social media’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“People should be angry that when they go online, they are being lied to. They are being manipulated by other people, by state-sponsored actors, and by the very platforms, and we are no longer informed citizens,” Farid said. “We’re not arguing about how to do something or if to do something. We’re arguing about 1 + 1 = 2.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In contrast, Farid adds, most news organizations have structural incentives to try to get the facts right, even though \u003ca href=\"https://news.gallup.com/poll/512861/media-confidence-matches-2016-record-low.aspx?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email\">a large proportion of Americans\u003c/a> don’t trust them either. That is to say, journalists are concerned about maintaining their own credibility with news consumers and competitively assessing rivals’ news coverage to probe for weaknesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When things are unfolding as fast as they are, stop getting your information from social media,” he said. “I’m not saying that \u003cem>The Washington Post\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> and the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em> always get it right. But at least they’re trying to get it right. And you can’t say that about social media.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Farid says he finds hope for the future in emerging content authentication protocols and technologies. He points to new efforts like the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (\u003ca href=\"https://c2pa.org\">C2PA\u003c/a>), an alliance between Adobe, Intel, Microsoft and other major tech companies to develop technical standards for certifying the provenance of media content.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So if I am in Gaza, and I film the bombing of a hospital, I can now verify when that was taken, who took it, where it was taken, and what was recorded,” Farid said. “That technology, we know how to do it. It just has to get deployed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

He points to new efforts like the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (\u003ca href=\"https://c2pa.org\">C2PA\u003c/a>), an alliance between Adobe, Intel, Microsoft and other major tech companies to develop technical standards for certifying the provenance of media content.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So if I am in Gaza, and I film the bombing of a hospital, I can now verify when that was taken, who took it, where it was taken, and what was recorded,” Farid said. “That technology, we know how to do it.

Laphonza Butler said Thursday she will not run for a full term in 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butler, a former labor leader and Democratic strategist, was appointed to the Senate seat earlier this month by Gov. Gavin Newsom, to fill the remainder of a term left open by the death of Sen. Dianne Feinstein. Her announcement was an unexpected twist in the state’s marquee political contest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Knowing you can win a campaign doesn’t always mean you should run a campaign,” Butler said, in her statement. “I know this will be a surprise to many because traditionally we don’t see those who have power let it go. It may not be the decision people expected but it’s the right one for me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butler could have run as an incumbent in the March 5 primary, where she would have joined a competitive field that also includes Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff, Katie Porter and Barbara Lee, along with Republicans Eric Early and Steve Garvey, the former baseball star.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to having more name recognition, the three high-profile Democratic candidates are months ahead when it comes to campaign war chests. Since January, Schiff has raised $21.5 million, Porter $22.1 million with Lee trailing with $3.3 million raised. Still, that head start in fundraising may have posed a challenge for Butler.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"California Sen. Laphonza Butler\"]‘I know this will be a surprise to many because traditionally we don’t see those who have power let it go. It may not be the decision people expected but it’s the right one for me.’[/pullquote]Butler, who previously helmed SEIU California, the state’s largest umbrella union, has strong labor connections that may have afforded her an advantage in a race where close relationships with unions could provide an advantage. And in her recent role leading EMILYs List, she was often a voice of encouragement for women weighing whether to run for office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Butler \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhnfVB0x6UY\">told FOX 11 in Los Angeles last week\u003c/a> that concerns for her own family and the “divisive nature of the harassment” would play a role in deciding whether she would run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My mother is 70 years old, she didn’t sign up for this. My daughter is 9, she didn’t sign up for this and so I’m thinking about my family and my family’s safety,” Butler said. “I have already gotten my first piece of hate mail and a stranger has shown up at my door and so that is a real contemplation for me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Lee is struggling to fundraise to the level of Schiff and Porter, Butler’s decision not to pursue a campaign may benefit Lee somewhat. Lee had initially hoped to be Newsom’s appointment to Feinstein’s seat after he promised to pick a Black woman, in light of Kamala Harris’ ascension to the vice presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Molly Watson, deputy director of the California Donor Table, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963215/laphonza-butler-senate-appointment-draws-praise-speculation-over-2024-plans\">previously told KQED\u003c/a> that a Butler run might complicate strategic decisions for donors in deciding how to back two Black progressive candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=science_1984492,news_11963066,news_11963215]“Sen. Butler took on the enormous responsibility of filling an open senate seat with grace, integrity, and a deep commitment to delivering for the people of California. I look forward to continuing our work together for the remainder of her term,” Lee said in a statement on Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without the pressure of that competition, Aimee Allison — a vocal ally of Rep. Lee and founder of She the People, which helps elect women of color to office — hoped Butler would now turn her support to helping Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She has the opportunity to be — once again — a queenmaker, this time for the next Senator of California,” Allison said, in a statement. “We sincerely hope her next step is to join California leaders and the Congressional Black Caucus PAC in endorsing Barbara Lee. That way, she will keep the door wide open for Black women’s representation and the trusted progressive leadership only Barbara Lee can bring to the Senate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butler’s previous consulting work at Bearstar Strategies \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2023/10/17/laphonza-butler-airbnb-payout-00122076?nname=california-playbook-pm&nid=00000177-6f21-d412-abff-6ff78f190000&nrid=00000171-e293-de31-a777-fedb26e20000&nlid=2693079\">complicated those union relationships\u003c/a>, however. While much of the labor community was excited about Butler’s appointment, some, like UC Irvine professor and labor expert Veena Dubal, criticized Butler’s consulting for Uber in particular as it battled Assembly Bill 5, an effort to grant Uber drivers full employment status. Dubal\u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/02/us/laphonza-butler-senate-california.html\"> told \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> this month\u003c/a> that many in labor “were really angry and really felt like this was treachery.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Butler may not be running for the Senate, she has other options: \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/newsletters/california-playbook/2023/10/12/laphonza-butler-has-options-00121146\">\u003cem>Politico\u003c/em> cited sources\u003c/a> close to Newsom who said Butler would make a strong candidate for governor in 2026.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story is developing and will be updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

HASAN I’m here because this girl on the poster is a neighbor of my mother. I was raised and born in Kibbutz Nicholas. And on last Friday night, we were celebrating with friends. And someone all of a sudden said, there are rockets over Israel. And we tried to ignore. But then someone said, oh, my terrorists have crossed the border in Gaza. And immediately I felt like, oh, this is so serious. This is like the one worst nightmare I had as a child. I called my mother. She didn’t really know. And I told her, shut off the TV, go into the Mahmoud secure room and close the door, closed the TV, everything. And so we were we are five siblings, so we were following her the entire day until at midnight she was rescued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 10: \u003c/strong>She’s physically fine, but she’s part of a shattered community.

I don’t know if we have enough synonyms. Just nightmare. All that is just. There are no words anymore. There are no words You don’t liberate by kidnaping, abducting people, slaughtering them. Stop with the equation that Hamas is Palestinian. It’s actually hurting the Palestinians. In my humble opinion, the Hamas is the sole responsible for these atrocities, and this is regardless of any political argument or conflict.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 7: \u003c/strong>Would you mind stating your first and last name real quick, and your title?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Josh Becker: \u003c/strong> Sure, Josh Becker California State Senator, District 13.

And vice chair of the California Legislative Jewish Caucus. We’ve been in touch with our U.S. senators, our State Department. We are working every angle. And this rally is one of those. No matter how you feel about Middle East politics, we can all agree that kidnaping women and children and the elderly is wrong. It’s a violation of international law. We need them released now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 12: \u003c/strong>Do not mistake this as a fight for freedom. Freedom can never be stopped through brutal, inhumane and barbaric actions. As a citizen of Israel, I stand united with my country in our fight against Hamas. I call on the local, local and global community to stand with Israel as we fight for our lives, our homes and our future. I call on mothers and fathers to voice their horror and rage against these brutal crimes. I call all mothers and fathers to help Israel get our children back alive and safe with no negotiations right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 9: \u003c/strong>Where people are connected by businesses, by what people are still deciding that nothing that’s golden.

You know, it’s not a new issue for us. Of course, the mainstream media has been portraying it as if this is something that just a war or a war that broke out like two or three days ago. But this is something that’s been ongoing for us. And having family in in Palestine, specifically me having family in Gaza, in Khan Yunis, which was bombarded last night, as I saw, is really difficult. I’ve lived here my whole life. I’ve gone to school here and I’ve always been faced with, you know, teachers telling me that Palestine doesn’t exist. And that’s horrifying to hear, you know, And to it in this day and age when we’re seeing another genocide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 5: \u003c/strong>Would have you believe that this race, this notion that we want this violence to happen, that we want to bury close to 600 of our children in the last seven days. But the only thing we want is an end to the occupation and then through colonialism, an end to ethnic cleansing, an end to the siege of Gaza and honest reporting. That is the cruelty. And I think that this is the truth and stop with the propaganda and lies. The year is 2023 when it looks like the headlines read this 2001.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maysa Al-Sharif: \u003c/strong>My name is Maysa. Al-Sharif. I’ve been protesting since I was a kid, and unfortunately I’m here today with my kids now, maybe in the past year. Sure. He’s nine and she’s five. I’ve been telling them the truth that their lives would it matter if they lived there? And it’s not fair that we get to live here and our people got to our family got to leave and we’re safe and they’re not. So I’m letting them know without traumatizing them as much as I could. But I’m definitely letting them know the way that I grew up knowing. We do live in India. They last heard of them days ago. Yeah, they’re not sure where. They know their houses were bombed and they’re not sure where they are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 9: \u003c/strong>Right. Palestine. Palestine, Palestine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 14: \u003c/strong>Thank you all so, so much for joining us today. It’s so powerful to be here in community with all of you, with other Jews who know that Jewish safety can only come through ending apartheid and ensuring Palestinian safety and freedom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Suzanna Ali: \u003c/strong>Can I get your first and last name?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sidney Levy: \u003c/strong>Yes. Sidney Levy. I’m Jewish, Jewish, American. I’m in solidarity with Palestine. I have family that’s in the Israeli army, family in Israel. I have friends in Palestine on both sides of the border. Everybody is concerned. Everybody is upset and fearful, But nothing justifies what is happening now in Gaza. Last week has been very heavy, has been in mostly despair because so many things that we have been building as a movement of solidarity with Palestine at the beginning seem to be collapsing. What you hear from the U.S. government with all of the support, with all of that, it’s just incredible. But I think that people are waking up from their grief, which is still real into action. So one of the ways to deal with the despair is not to fall into the oppression, which I was depressed last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sidney Levy: \u003c/strong>And it’s just moving into action and just saying, we’re here, we’re opposed to what is happening, and we want a different world, a world without apartheid. It’s not that hard. A friend of mine was saying that in order to move from A to B, from the violence to action, you have to pass through the grief. And somebody was commenting here, it’s very hard to pursue the grief because the violence and the killing is still happening is taking place. So you’re grieving not only for the people that have died, but for the people that will continue to die, unfortunately. And that’s why you have to be able to hold both the community and the grief, but also the action, because there are things that we can still stop. We cannot stop the people that were killed yesterday. We can stop the killings. That will happen tomorrow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 7: \u003c/strong>We’re all grieving for so, so many people right now.

Local news to keep You Rooted. Over the past week, people across the Bay Area have been watching in horror at the war between Israel and Hamas, and they are responding with sadness, anxiety, fear and outrage. On Friday, hundreds dressed in blue carrying Israeli flags gathered outside San Francisco City Hall, calling for the release of hostages still being held by Hamas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>On Saturday, an estimated 3000 people marched from the ferry building, an upmarket street demanding that Israel stop bombarding and blockading Gaza. And at least married in Oakland, Jewish groups calling for the end of Israel’s occupation of Palestine. Held a vigil on Sunday to mourn those killed in the war. Today, we’re going to take you to those actions and we’ll hear from the people here in the Bay Area about how they’re feeling in this moment and how they’re processing the events in Israel and Gaza. Stay with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>*\u003c/strong>audio from protest*\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 6: \u003c/strong>Would you mind just stating your first and last name?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 8: \u003c/strong>Yes. My name is Arthur Zico. I I’m Israeli born and an American citizen now. So at a time like this. You want to feel that you are part of a community who is feeling what you’re feeling. And of course, as a sign of solidarity and support. It’s a sad day for all of us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 9: \u003c/strong>Do you mind saying your first and last name for mme?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 10: \u003c/strong>NEARY. HASAN I’m here because this girl on the poster is a neighbor of my mother. I was raised and born in Kibbutz Nicholas. And on last Friday night, we were celebrating with friends. And someone all of a sudden said, there are rockets over Israel. And we tried to ignore. But then someone said, oh, my terrorists have crossed the border in Gaza. And immediately I felt like, oh, this is so serious. This is like the one worst nightmare I had as a child. I called my mother. She didn’t really know. And I told her, shut off the TV, go into the Mahmoud secure room and close the door, closed the TV, everything. And so we were we are five siblings, so we were following her the entire day until at midnight she was rescued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 10: \u003c/strong>She’s physically fine, but she’s part of a shattered community. My good friends, his mother was kidnaped. She’s 84. She’s barely walking. We know of Eliakim family, the parents of this beautiful girl who were kidnaped and so many. I don’t know if we have enough synonyms. Just nightmare. All that is just. There are no words anymore. There are no words You don’t liberate by kidnaping, abducting people, slaughtering them. Stop with the equation that Hamas is Palestinian. It’s actually hurting the Palestinians. In my humble opinion, the Hamas is the sole responsible for these atrocities, and this is regardless of any political argument or conflict.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 7: \u003c/strong>Would you mind stating your first and last name real quick, and your title?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Josh Becker: \u003c/strong> Sure, Josh Becker California State Senator, District 13. This rally is about bringing home the hostages and communicating very clearly to Hamas and to the world that they must release the hostages now. And vice chair of the California Legislative Jewish Caucus. We’ve been in touch with our U.S. senators, our State Department. We are working every angle. And this rally is one of those. No matter how you feel about Middle East politics, we can all agree that kidnaping women and children and the elderly is wrong. It’s a violation of international law. We need them released now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 12: \u003c/strong>Do not mistake this as a fight for freedom. Freedom can never be stopped through brutal, inhumane and barbaric actions. As a citizen of Israel, I stand united with my country in our fight against Hamas. I call on the local, local and global community to stand with Israel as we fight for our lives, our homes and our future. I call on mothers and fathers to voice their horror and rage against these brutal crimes. I call all mothers and fathers to help Israel get our children back alive and safe with no negotiations right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 9: \u003c/strong>Where people are connected by businesses, by what people are still deciding that nothing that’s golden. Step up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Suzanna Ali: \u003c/strong>My name is Suzanne Ali. I’m an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement Bay Area. This week has been personally so difficult. You know, it’s not a new issue for us. Of course, the mainstream media has been portraying it as if this is something that just a war or a war that broke out like two or three days ago. But this is something that’s been ongoing for us. And having family in in Palestine, specifically me having family in Gaza, in Khan Yunis, which was bombarded last night, as I saw, is really difficult. I’ve lived here my whole life. I’ve gone to school here and I’ve always been faced with, you know, teachers telling me that Palestine doesn’t exist. And that’s horrifying to hear, you know, And to it in this day and age when we’re seeing another genocide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 5: \u003c/strong>Would have you believe that this race, this notion that we want this violence to happen, that we want to bury close to 600 of our children in the last seven days. But the only thing we want is an end to the occupation and then through colonialism, an end to ethnic cleansing, an end to the siege of Gaza and honest reporting. That is the cruelty. And I think that this is the truth and stop with the propaganda and lies. The year is 2023 when it looks like the headlines read this 2001.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maysa Al-Sharif: \u003c/strong>My name is Maysa. Al-Sharif. I’ve been protesting since I was a kid, and unfortunately I’m here today with my kids now, maybe in the past year. Sure. He’s nine and she’s five. I’ve been telling them the truth that their lives would it matter if they lived there? And it’s not fair that we get to live here and our people got to our family got to leave and we’re safe and they’re not. So I’m letting them know without traumatizing them as much as I could. But I’m definitely letting them know the way that I grew up knowing. We do live in India. They last heard of them days ago. Yeah, they’re not sure where. They know their houses were bombed and they’re not sure where they are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 9: \u003c/strong>Right. Palestine. Palestine, Palestine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speaker 14: \u003c/strong>Thank you all so, so much for joining us today. It’s so powerful to be here in community with all of you, with other Jews who know that Jewish safety can only come through ending apartheid and ensuring Palestinian safety and freedom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Suzanna Ali: \u003c/strong>Can I get your first and last name?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sidney Levy: \u003c/strong>Yes. Sidney Levy. I’m Jewish, Jewish, American. I’m in solidarity with Palestine. I have family that’s in the Israeli army, family in Israel. I have friends in Palestine on both sides of the border. Everybody is concerned. Everybody is upset and fearful, But nothing justifies what is happening now in Gaza. Last week has been very heavy, has been in mostly despair because so many things that we have been building as a movement of solidarity with Palestine at the beginning seem to be collapsing.

"content": "\u003cp>An \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11961241/inside-californias-landmark-mental-health-reforms\">ambitious plan to change how California funds mental health care\u003c/a> will go before voters in March after Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a pair of bills Thursday to place the reforms on the primary ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The changes to the Mental Health Services Act and a corresponding housing bond are aimed at helping Californians with severe mental illness while living on the street. The measures won overwhelming support in the Legislature despite concerns from California counties and some mental health advocates. Together, they represent Newsom’s latest effort to transform care at the intersection of mental health and homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two bills Newsom signed on Thursday — Senate Bill 326 and Assembly Bill 531 — will appear on the March 5, 2024 ballot as Proposition 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This was bipartisan legislation that we signed today, Democrats, Republicans — all of us impacted by the issue of mental health, mental illness,” Newsom said at a bill signing ceremony in Los Angeles. “So we’re very excited about the prospect of our success in March.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SB 326 reworks the state’s Mental Health Services Act, first approved by voters in 2004. The MHSA places a 1% tax on personal income over $1 million to fund mental health care, along with services aimed at preventing mental health issues in kids and teens from becoming more severe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"California Gov. Gavin Newsom\"]‘This was bipartisan legislation that we signed today, Democrats, Republicans — all of us impacted by the issue of mental health, mental illness.’[/pullquote]Under the changes, the law would be renamed the Behavioral Health Services Act, and tax dollars could be used to treat substance abuse, in addition to mental illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Going forward, 30% of the act’s revenue would be set aside for housing, which could include temporary units or rental subsidies for Californians with acute mental health care needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We all come to this with our own personal stories about the frustrations of knocking our heads against walls, trying to get people we love help,” said Sen. Susan Talamantes Eggman (D-Stockton), the bill’s author. “Well, now we have all the pieces together.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill faced initial opposition from providers of youth mental health services, who argued the plan lacked clear set-asides to pay for early interventions — such as paying for mental health clinicians to come into classrooms and help early childhood educators identify issues with students. The plan was amended to include specific set-asides for early intervention and Californians younger than 25.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County governments remained skeptical of the bill. Tax revenue from wealthy Californians is a volatile revenue source, and directing more of that money toward housing could leave less funding for core mental health services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='More on California Law' tag='california-law']“Counties have a significant and growing obligation to fund behavioral health services under the Medi-Cal entitlement and use MHSA funds to support that obligation,” according to the final Senate analysis of the bill. “This proposal leaves counties with fewer resources to do so, including less funding available to use as a Medi-Cal match to draw down additional federal dollars.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 531 proposes a $6.38 billion bond, with the goal of providing 10,000 new beds and supportive housing units for those with severe behavioral health needs who, supporters of the plan argue, currently end up in emergency rooms or back on the streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over $1 billion will be set aside for veterans with behavioral health needs. Supporters of the plan are promising community-based facilities, and not the locked state mental hospitals of years past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jolissa Hebard, an outreach supervisor with the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Westside Los Angeles, said she has lived with substance use and has relatives with bipolar disorder. She also has a son who has attempted suicide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The stuff that we are doing today is going to help families to help themselves and help their loved ones,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Newsom administration pushed hard to win support for the mental health changes in the state Legislature and the governor will actively pitch his plan to voters next year, said Dana Williamson, Newsom’s chief of staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If he were here, he’d tell you this is his biggest priority,” Williamson told KQED’s Political Breakdown last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Jolissa Hebard, outreach supervisor, National Alliance on Mental Illness\"]‘The stuff that we are doing today is going to help families to help themselves and help their loved ones.’[/pullquote]Since taking office, Newsom has pushed for changes to how state and local governments deal with people suffering from severe psychosis or substance abuse — many of whom end up living in encampments on sidewalks or riverbeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11924117/governors-care-court-plan-passes-assembly-clearing-way-to-become-law\">governor signed into law the CARE Court program\u003c/a>, which authorizes judges to compel care and housing for Californians with severe mental illness. That law is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101894425/care-court-is-coming-to-san-francisco-heres-what-we-can-expect\">rolling out this fall in eight counties\u003c/a> before statewide implementation next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this week, Newsom signed a bill \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963961/newsom-signs-law-expanding-conservatorships-for-those-experiencing-severe-mental-illness-substance-abuse\">expanding the state’s conservatorship law\u003c/a> governing the use of involuntary medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 will be the only statewide measure on the March 5 ballot. Voters will also weigh in on primaries for president and California’s U.S. Senate seat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The vote has triggered a process where the Clerk of the House will refer to a list of people who can act as speaker pro tempore in the absence of speaker. That list is kept secret and will only be made public in the event that the speakership is vacant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House will then be forced to hold votes on a new speaker, though that could take time. Members will likely need to meet to discuss the path ahead. They are already preparing for a fraught process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took 15 rounds to elect McCarthy speaker in January, in part because there was no consensus alternative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is no clear alternative who could win the votes necessary to fill the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Republicans split into factions\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>McCarthy was defiant but resigned to the vote following a lengthy meeting of House Republicans on Tuesday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Rep.

Members will likely need to meet to discuss the path ahead.
