His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. 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.",

Clendenen, a key figure in the effort to recall Republican county Supervisor Leonard Moty, said ‘probably half’ of his customers are armed at any given time. The barbershop proudly displays a confederate flag in the window. \u003ccite>(Scott Shafer/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>As he cut a customer’s hair recently, Clendenen described what triggered the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fact that the board kept going along with Newsom’s mandates on the businesses and on the schools, even though the local people were against it, you know, and overwhelmingly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trimmer in hand, Clendenen said it isn’t just the pandemic that fueled the recall, but also the county’s strong gun culture and the feeling Supervisor Moty doesn’t support the Second Amendment enough for this pro-gun county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now, anytime you’re in my barbershop, probably half the guys in here are armed, you know,” Clendenen said, as a half dozen customers waited their turn, many nodding their approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The way he sees it, recalling Moty will shift control of the county board more to his liking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can do all kinds of things like, well, we’ll work on getting rid of the head of the Shasta County schools. We’ll get rid of the DA here. She’s no good,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a recent weekday afternoon in Redding, pedestrians strolled across the Sundial Bridge. Fishermen cast their lines into the Sacramento River below, the snowcapped peak of Mt.

I understand why people are angry, and I think change is good and change is necessary,” she said, adding that she supports the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That view is echoed by Patrick Jones, one of the county supervisors who supports the Moty recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Here in conservative Shasta County, it’s a course correction. And I think that’s what it’s all coming down to,” Jones said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jones has helped stir up angry residents. Earlier this year he held an unofficial supervisors’ meeting with recall supporters outside, after the county building where meetings usually occur was closed over public safety and health concerns. But he denies the recall is made up of people who want to essentially overthrow the government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, we’ve been demonized as radicals and various things like this,” Jones said. “We are not. We are just simply business owners. We’re mothers, we’re fathers, we’re grandmothers, we’re grandfathers — and we want to return to a county where we grew up: a safe, prosperous county that we can be proud of.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘It doesn’t matter how transparent we make the process’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>County Registrar of Voters Cathy Darling Allen is overseeing the Feb. 1 recall election.

Assembly Bill 1400, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB1400\">which would create a universal health care system called CalCare\u003c/a>, faces strong opposition from powerful business interests who say it would cost too much. And even if it does become law, voters would have to approve a \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220ACA11\">major income tax increase\u003c/a> to pay for it — a vote that might not happen until 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Democrats hailed Tuesday’s vote for jump-starting one of their long-stalled policy goals and signaling they won’t back away from a fight even during an election year. In an hours-long hearing, some lawmakers and advocates assailed a health care industry they say has benefited corporate interests at the expense of consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ady Barkan, a 38-year-old father of two, was diagnosed with ALS six years ago and now is mostly paralyzed. He testified at Tuesday’s hearing with the help of a computerized voice that spoke as he typed using technology that followed the movement of his eyes. Barkan said he has battled his private insurance carrier to get treatment he needed, including suing them to get a ventilator that keeps him alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even good health insurance, which I have, does not cover the cost of the care I need to survive,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill that advanced on Tuesday would create the universal health care system — CalCare — and set its rules. It cleared the Assembly Health Committee on an 11-3 vote. Republicans voted no, arguing the bill would cost too much and pay doctors and nurses less, potentially worsening a shortage of health care workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblymember Ash Kalra, a Democrat from San Jos\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">é\u003c/span> and the author of the CalCare proposal, said Tuesday it could be 2024 before the tax increase proposal to pay for CalCare made it to the ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletters/whatmatters/2022/01/health-care-taxes-california/\">analysis from CalMatters\u003c/a> breaks down the proposed tax increase:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A 2.3% excise tax on businesses after their first $2 million in income\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A 1.25% payroll tax on employers with 50-plus workers\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>An additional 1% payroll tax on wages for resident employees earning more than $49,900\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A progressive income tax starting at 0.5% for Californians earning more than $149,500, up to 2.5% for people making about $2.5 million annually (with rates being adjusted for inflation)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The California Taxpayers Association, which opposes the plan, estimates it would raise taxes by about $163 billion per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If government-run health care becomes law, millions of Californians will flee the state — either to avoid the $163 billion per year in new taxes or to escape the lengthy waits for care that will become the norm,” Assembly Republican Leader Marie Waldron said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even some Democrats who voted for the bill had sharp criticism for the proposal. Assemblymember Autumn Burke, a Democrat from Inglewood, said advancing the bill without a funding source made a mockery of the process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This bill has been sold to my community that it is going to change things now and that it is free. And neither one of those things are true,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Business groups, led by the California Chamber of Commerce, said the government-run health care system would be so expensive that the tax increase still wouldn’t be enough to pay for everything. In 2018, California’s total health care expenditures totaled $399.2 billion, accounting for 13.2% of the state’s gross domestic product, according to an analysis by the Healthy California for All Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Completely abolishing the current system in face of an unrelenting pandemic by annually taxing Californians hundreds of billions of dollars is not the solution,” said Preston Young, a policy advocate for the California Chamber of Commerce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kalra, the San Jos\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">é\u003c/span> Democrat and author of the proposal, said he knew opponents would focus on how much the plan would cost. But he said that argument distracts from the fact that Californians are already paying “the highest health tax in the world.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You may refer to it as premiums, deductibles, co-pays, denial of care,” Kalra said, saying none of those costs would exist under a universal health care system. “It’s clear as day they are being fleeced, and far too many understandably feel helpless about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s health care system is paid for by multiple entities: patients, insurance companies, employers and government. But a universal health care system would be paid for by a single entity — the government, or the “single payer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A single-payer system has been a staple of California progressive political rhetoric for decades. But it’s not been easy to accomplish in a state where most people pay for private health insurance through their jobs. In 1994, voters overwhelmingly rejected a ballot initiative that would have created a universal health care system. Another attempt passed the state Senate in 2017, but it never got a vote in the state Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Questions about how to pay for a single-payer system have doomed previous plans. In 2011, Vermont enacted the nation’s first universal health care system in the country. But state officials abandoned it three years later because they said they couldn’t afford to pay for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11901253 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/09/021_SanFrancisco_NewsomRecallEvent_09142021-1020x680.jpg']Gov. Gavin Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2021/02/newsom-single-payer-health-care-dilemma/\">promised to do it when he ran for governor in 2018\u003c/a>, and voters elected him in a landslide.

Assembly Bill 1400, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB1400\">which would create a universal health care system called CalCare\u003c/a>, faces strong opposition from powerful business interests who say it would cost too much. And even if it does become law, voters would have to approve a \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220ACA11\">major income tax increase\u003c/a> to pay for it — a vote that might not happen until 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Democrats hailed Tuesday’s vote for jump-starting one of their long-stalled policy goals and signaling they won’t back away from a fight even during an election year. In an hours-long hearing, some lawmakers and advocates assailed a health care industry they say has benefited corporate interests at the expense of consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ady Barkan, a 38-year-old father of two, was diagnosed with ALS six years ago and now is mostly paralyzed. He testified at Tuesday’s hearing with the help of a computerized voice that spoke as he typed using technology that followed the movement of his eyes. Barkan said he has battled his private insurance carrier to get treatment he needed, including suing them to get a ventilator that keeps him alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It cleared the Assembly Health Committee on an 11-3 vote. Republicans voted no, arguing the bill would cost too much and pay doctors and nurses less, potentially worsening a shortage of health care workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblymember Ash Kalra, a Democrat from San Jos\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">é\u003c/span> and the author of the CalCare proposal, said Tuesday it could be 2024 before the tax increase proposal to pay for CalCare made it to the ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletters/whatmatters/2022/01/health-care-taxes-california/\">analysis from CalMatters\u003c/a> breaks down the proposed tax increase:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A 2.3% excise tax on businesses after their first $2 million in income\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A 1.25% payroll tax on employers with 50-plus workers\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>An additional 1% payroll tax on wages for resident employees earning more than $49,900\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A progressive income tax starting at 0.5% for Californians earning more than $149,500, up to 2.5% for people making about $2.5 million annually (with rates being adjusted for inflation)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The California Taxpayers Association, which opposes the plan, estimates it would raise taxes by about $163 billion per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If government-run health care becomes law, millions of Californians will flee the state — either to avoid the $163 billion per year in new taxes or to escape the lengthy waits for care that will become the norm,” Assembly Republican Leader Marie Waldron said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even some Democrats who voted for the bill had sharp criticism for the proposal. Assemblymember Autumn Burke, a Democrat from Inglewood, said advancing the bill without a funding source made a mockery of the process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This bill has been sold to my community that it is going to change things now and that it is free. And neither one of those things are true,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Business groups, led by the California Chamber of Commerce, said the government-run health care system would be so expensive that the tax increase still wouldn’t be enough to pay for everything. In 2018, California’s total health care expenditures totaled $399.2 billion, accounting for 13.2% of the state’s gross domestic product, according to an analysis by the Healthy California for All Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Completely abolishing the current system in face of an unrelenting pandemic by annually taxing Californians hundreds of billions of dollars is not the solution,” said Preston Young, a policy advocate for the California Chamber of Commerce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kalra, the San Jos\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">é\u003c/span> Democrat and author of the proposal, said he knew opponents would focus on how much the plan would cost. But he said that argument distracts from the fact that Californians are already paying “the highest health tax in the world.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You may refer to it as premiums, deductibles, co-pays, denial of care,” Kalra said, saying none of those costs would exist under a universal health care system. “It’s clear as day they are being fleeced, and far too many understandably feel helpless about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s health care system is paid for by multiple entities: patients, insurance companies, employers and government. But a universal health care system would be paid for by a single entity — the government, or the “single payer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A single-payer system has been a staple of California progressive political rhetoric for decades. But it’s not been easy to accomplish in a state where most people pay for private health insurance through their jobs. In 1994, voters overwhelmingly rejected a ballot initiative that would have created a universal health care system. Another attempt passed the state Senate in 2017, but it never got a vote in the state Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Questions about how to pay for a single-payer system have doomed previous plans. In 2011, Vermont enacted the nation’s first universal health care system in the country. But state officials abandoned it three years later because they said they couldn’t afford to pay for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom on Monday unveiled a spending plan that would make deep investments into containing the current COVID-19 surge, expanding health care access, shoring up drought response and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11899691/gov-newsom-boosts-efforts-to-combat-organized-retail-theft-in-california\">fighting organized retail crime\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The $286.4 billion proposal is aimed at tackling what Newsom’s administration deems California’s “most existential threats”: COVID-19, climate change, homelessness, inequality and public safety. With midterm elections and the governor’s reelection campaign looming this fall, however, those challenges also pose clear political threats to the national Democratic establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Gov. Gavin Newsom\"]‘[We] continue to do what we can to fight this latest surge.’[/pullquote]His budget seems aimed at getting ahead of some of that. Newsom is asking lawmakers to spend an extra $1.4 billion immediately on pandemic response measures — a proposal that comes as the state faces down its third year of addressing the pandemic even as COVID-19 cases surge to record levels, causing major disruptions in schools and hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor wants the state to earmark $2.7 billion in additional money over the next 18 months \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2022/01/08/governor-newsom-announces-new-2-7-billion-covid-19-emergency-response-package/\">for increased testing, vaccination campaigns and support for hospitals and health care workers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The goal this year is to do more in testing and those vaccine boosters,” he said. “[We] continue to do what we can to fight this latest surge, in issues related to staffing of frontline workers in our hospitals, and dealing with this incredible stress and strain that so many in our system are facing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom also praised “the individuals that show up every single day for work against just extraordinary, extraordinary circumstances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With at least $45 billion more in expected revenue than had been forecast by state officials last year — a number that could climb even higher over the coming months — Newsom also wants to expand health care access to all Californians, regardless of immigration status. If his proposal to make Medi-Cal available to all undocumented immigrants is approved, California would become the first state in the nation to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11879724\" hero=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/06/RS50190_GettyImages-1310021506-qut-1020x668.jpg\"]Not all of that $45 billion in extra money is unspoken for. Newsom noted that $16 billion of it will automatically go to schools, and $9 billion will be put in state reserves or used to pay down debt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In all, California leaders will have about $20 billion extra to spend — cash Newsom said he wants to spend largely on one-time investments. It’s still unclear, the governor said, whether the state will have to refund any money to taxpayers under a 1979 law that places limits on state spending.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Schools and COVID-19\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>With the pandemic still top of mind for many Californians, Newsom is including a proposed $1.2 billion to help expand hours and capacity at testing sites as well as distribute millions of antigen tests to schools, local governments and clinics. The lack of access to testing has become a huge problem for schools in particular as the omicron variant drives cases to unprecedented levels, prompting staffing shortages and posing political challenges for Newsom and other state leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to testing, the governor wants to pump another $583 million into efforts to get more Californians vaccinated and boosted. That money would fund not only in-home vaccination and testing programs and free transportation to vaccine appointments, but also a public education campaign aimed at combating vaccine misinformation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor also wants to invest billions more into behavioral health services — including for young people who have been hit hard by mental health issues during the pandemic. And, he’s proposing to continue offering two free meals a day to all public schoolchildren, not just those from families with incomes deemed low enough to qualify.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, to address concerns about how declining public school enrollment could hurt schools already struggling to survive the pandemic, Newsom is proposing a new way to calculate how much money school districts receive. Instead of basing budget figures on a district’s average daily attendance over one school year, the budget proposes allowing them to consider an average of three years of attendance figures.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Climate investments\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Despite wet weather in recent weeks, California is still facing a historic drought. Last year, lawmakers and the governor approved a $5.2 billion water package that will fund infrastructure projects around the state to make water more reliable and safer. In this year’s plan, Newsom proposes spending an additional $750 million to help residents, farmers and wildlife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are mindful of our need to do better to prepare not only for short-term, medium- and long-term realities of a world that’s being replumbed both literally and figuratively as it comes to weather,” Newsom said, adding that in addition to investments in storage and infrastructure, “we have got to do more, all of us including my family, on water conservation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11900750\" hero=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/01/GettyImages-1323577332-1-1020x676.jpg\"]The governor is also including $1.2 billion in new spending on initiatives like forest thinning, prescribed burns, grazing, reforestation, fuel breaks and new technology to detect wildfires early. And he wants to direct nearly $650 million in new funds to support firefighting efforts — including $400 million for CalFire firefighters directly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are overwhelmed, they are stressed,” Newsom said of the CalFire workforce. “We have gotten staffing up [in recent years] but the workload is still profound.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom wants to reduce the state’s reliance on fossil fuels in part by investing a total of $10 billion to encourage the switch to electric vehicles, including nearly $4 billion for trucks, buses and heavy-duty vehicles. And he’s proposing over $1 billion over the next three years in new tax credits for businesses that create “cutting-edge climate solutions” and “develop green energy technologies and agree to share profits.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Targeting inequality\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The governor also is prioritizing the state’s high cost of living, saying he wants to help blunt the rising costs of health care, housing and child care — and help small businesses stay open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among his initiatives:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Expanding Medi-Cal health coverage to undocumented immigrants who are between age 26 and 50. In recent years, the state has slowly increased access to the health care insurance program for Californians with lower incomes — first by expanding it to young people up to age 26 in 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news//so-thankful-california-to-offer-medi-cal-to-235000-undocumented-californians\">and then last year by including an estimated 235,000 undocumented people over the age of 50\u003c/a>. Under this year’s proposal — which is likely to be embraced by the Democrat-led Legislature, another 764,000 people would be covered by January of 2024.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Investing in child care and education programs by adding thousands of new child care slots for lower-income families and increasing access to before-, after- and summer-school programs. He’s also proposing $4 billion in spending over the next several years to create universal preschool in California.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Earmarking $2 billion for grants and tax credits aimed at increasing housing production in California.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Providing hundreds of millions of dollars in grants and tax breaks to small businesses as well as waiving fees. Newsom, a business owner himself, noted the challenges small businesses have faced during this pandemic.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>$182 million to fight the opioid epidemic, particularly the fentanyl crisis, including for overdose prevention and medication-assisted treatment.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>And, the governor said the state will be experimenting with a way to bring down the cost of prescription drugs by entering into agreements to produce its own insulin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Insulin epitomizes the failures in the pharmaceutical industry,” he said, adding that more details will be released in the coming months but that he hopes the pilot program could be a model for other pharmaceutical products.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Reducing homelessness\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In addition to $12 billion authorized last year, Newsom is proposing another $2 billion in spending this year aimed at getting people off the street and into shelters that have behavioral health support.

The lack of access to testing has become a huge problem for schools in particular as the omicron variant drives cases to unprecedented levels, prompting staffing shortages and posing political challenges for Newsom and other state leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to testing, the governor wants to pump another $583 million into efforts to get more Californians vaccinated and boosted. That money would fund not only in-home vaccination and testing programs and free transportation to vaccine appointments, but also a public education campaign aimed at combating vaccine misinformation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor also wants to invest billions more into behavioral health services — including for young people who have been hit hard by mental health issues during the pandemic. And, he’s proposing to continue offering two free meals a day to all public schoolchildren, not just those from families with incomes deemed low enough to qualify.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, to address concerns about how declining public school enrollment could hurt schools already struggling to survive the pandemic, Newsom is proposing a new way to calculate how much money school districts receive.

In this year’s plan, Newsom proposes spending an additional $750 million to help residents, farmers and wildlife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are mindful of our need to do better to prepare not only for short-term, medium- and long-term realities of a world that’s being replumbed both literally and figuratively as it comes to weather,” Newsom said, adding that in addition to investments in storage and infrastructure, “we have got to do more, all of us including my family, on water conservation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
