What follows are portions of that conversation, edited for clarity and brevity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Let’s start with your campaign slogan: “Get ready for a California comeback.” And yet, over the past few years, California has been responsible for more than our share of jobs created.

It’s about Republicans, Democrats, Independents and people that understand that there is a sense of urgency for a change in our state right now.’[/pullquote]Well, it is time for a California comeback to get our state back on track. And I feel pretty strongly and passionately about that. The fact that we have had so many of our jobs that are leaving our state for other states, the fact that our state continues to see a dramatic increase in homelessness in virtually every city in our state. And yet we were able to do the exact opposite in San Diego the last couple of years where we reduced homelessness by double digits. It’s really about coming back for our quality of life, our neighborhoods and our state, to get people proud of our state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>That slogan “California comeback” — some might think, “Oh, that’s kind of like, ‘Make California Great Again,'” Donald Trump’s MAGA slogan. What would you say to that?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A California comeback is the time for us to unite everybody. It’s about Republicans, Democrats, Independents and people that understand that there is a sense of urgency for a change in our state right now, who are very frustrated at the direction our state is going.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So, how would you get the schools open?

We wanted to get people back to work safely, have that conversations to make it happen. And we did. The fact that in virtually every state, every state across this country, schools are reopening. But California isn’t — that’s a lack of leadership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The foundation of your campaign is the governor’s mishandling, as you would say, of the pandemic. But San Diego County hasn’t done any better than most other California counties. In fact, it’s doing worse than some Democratic-controlled counties like San Francisco and Alameda when it comes to per capita case and positivity rates. So how do you make the case that you can do better as governor when you didn’t necessarily do better as mayor?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, the foundation of my campaign is (that I’m) a mayor that got results in the second-largest city in our state. I think it’s incredibly important that we follow the science, and what we have seen with our shifting metrics coming out of the governor’s office, shifting virtually every other month, is that a lot of it was not based on science.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Kevin Faulconer\"]‘The fact that our great state is at the bottom of vaccine distribution is unacceptable. That’s what needs to change.’[/pullquote]The fact that we closed outdoor dining down with absolutely no science behind outdoor transmission\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>was occurring. The fact that the governor came out several months ago and shut down playgrounds for kids and families before he changed his mind a week later. That’s not science. And then the fact that the governor’s office doesn’t share the reasoning, the data behind some of these decisions with folks like yourself in the media and the public, because they said it was too complicated for people to understand — that’s the wrong approach. I would take a dramatically different approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Even though there’s lots to criticize when it comes to how the governor has handled the pandemic, there isn’t really a playbook for how to do it. A lot of states are struggling with this. And when you look at the case rates per capita and positivity rates per capita in San Diego, they’re not really better than other parts of the state. So, why should people believe that you’ll do a better job as governor?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We all have the same goal: Let’s keep Californians safe. And we all have the same goal: Let’s get Californians vaccinated.

That’s what needs to change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>When you were mayor, there was a big outbreak of hepatitis A — I think the biggest outbreak in 20 years. There was a grand jury investigation that said the crisis was mishandled by the city and the county. So, what did you take from that, and what should voters take from that?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"kevin-faulconer\"]I tell you, we had a hepatitis A outbreak in San Diego County and it hit us in the urban portion in the city particularly hard. It changed everything. It changed how we look at what was not happening in terms of bureaucracy. And I had one goal: get people vaccinated. We did an all hands on deck and we had folks out in the riverbeds. And the fact that we stopped it in its tracks, I think spoke volumes about the city and the county and the partnership, with one goal: keeping people safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Gov. Newsom just signed a bill extending the moratorium on tenant evictions, in part to prevent homelessness. Would you have signed that as governor?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah, strongly supported the eviction moratoriums in San Diego. Again, we want to protect folks. We want to keep people healthy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Republican brand has been damaged in California for some time. A lot of voters will be wondering: What kind of Republican are you? You’re more moderate on some things. You support abortion rights and LGBT rights. But at the same time, you voted for Donald Trump in November. And that’s after all of his lies about the rigged election, his policy of forced family separations at the border, and so on. So why should voters believe that you’ll be a moderate as governor when you voted for Trump?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think I’m known as a Republican who brings people together. I’m a big believer and you’re going to have a difference of views and opinions and parties, and that’s fine. But I treat people with dignity and respect, even if we disagree on some of the issues. That’s the type of approach that I would take as governor. And I think that’s the approach that’s been lacking right now in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If you had known that the president was going to encourage his supporters to storm the Capitol to disrupt the confirmation of the election, would you still have voted for him?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Kevin Faulconer\"]‘I think I’m known as a Republican who brings people together.

That was a very dark day in our nation’s history. Absolutely wrong. And they need to be held accountable. And like I said, I know that Gavin Newsom wants to make this election about Donald Trump, but it’s not Donald Trump’s failure on the vaccine rollout that’s happening in our state. It’s not Donald Trump’s failures that Gavin Newsom has allowed $31 billion of fraud from our\u003cb>\u003c/b> economic development department.

"content": "\u003cp>There are two respected, statewide, nonpartisan pollsters in California: The Public Policy Institute of California and the Institute of Governmental Studies at UC Berkeley. As Newsom faces the increasing likelihood of a recall election, those polls are in an unusual disagreement about how Californians feel about the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In two surveys, conducted during an almost identical time period last month, the pollsters found very different states of affairs for California’s increasingly embattled governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One day after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11858051/poll-finds-newsoms-approval-plummeting-as-recall-looms\">the UC Berkeley poll found\u003c/a> Gov. Gavin Newsom’s approval rating underwater, the public policy institute released results indicating he’s still largely liked by California voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public policy institute poll finds 54% of California adults and 52% of likely voters approve of Newsom’s job as governor; that’s not a big difference from last January, before the COVID-19 pandemic, when 51% of adults and 49% of likely voters approved of Newsom.

President Biden has proposed a plan to reach a federal $15 minimum wage as part of his $1.9 trillion relief package, and legislation to reach that same benchmark has also been introduced in Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Veterans of California’s minimum wage fight, on both sides of the issue, say some of the lessons from here could inform the debate getting underway in Congress — while also acknowledging that the grassroots support that forced state lawmakers in Sacramento to act will be hard to replicate in Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, organized labor pursued a more aggressive minimum wage increase through ballot initiatives. Hoping to ward off an expensive ballot fight that would drain labor resources from other Democratic priorities, Brown and the state Legislature hashed out a compromise plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legislation — \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160SB3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Senate Bill 3\u003c/a> — signed by Brown, phased in the $15 minimum wage over six years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The initiative put on the ballot by SEIU gave a real thrust,\" said Brown at the bill's signing ceremony in 2016. \"I would have to say without that, we probably wouldn't be here today.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That political pressure (and California's Democratic supermajority in the Legislature) doesn't exist at the federal level, but supporters of a wage hike point to a similar dynamic of successes at lower levels of government building momentum toward large-scale change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the years since California's minimum wage bill was signed, more than a dozen states have followed suit by increasing their minimum wages. Currently, \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncsl.org/research/labor-and-employment/state-minimum-wage-chart.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">29 states\u003c/a> have a minimum above the current federal floor of $7.25 an hour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butler, now director of public policy at Airbnb, said the increases have set the table for national legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I am a member of Congress or if I am President Biden, I now have proof points that economies can continue to survive, local businesses can continue to survive and our economies can continue to grow,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/AHC_UzavmW0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Jacobs, chair of the UC Berkeley Labor Center, said there is a lag time in researchers’ ability to analyze California's gradual move toward a $15 minimum wage, which reached $14 an hour for large employers this year and $13 for small businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Jacobs said similar increases in cities such as San Francisco \"have led to measurable, strong increases in workers' pay, [and] we are not seeing effects on employment overall.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics of Biden's minimum wage proposal argue that workers and businesses outside of urban centers will be hurt most by the plan. And they point to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2019-07/CBO-55410-MinimumWage2019.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2019 Congressional Budget Office estimate\u003c/a> that a $15 minimum wage bill would result in the same number of people losing their jobs (1.3 million) as those lifted out of poverty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The cost of living in an area like the Bay Area or San Diego is very different than the cost of living in the places that I represent in rural California,\" said U.S. Rep. Jay Obernolte, R-Big Bear Lake. \"The minimum wage should reflect that, if the intention is to pay people enough to live on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obernolte, who started his own video game business before serving in the state Assembly, voted against California's minimum wage hike\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160SB3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">.\u003c/a> He said California, and now the nation, would be better served by a plan that sets different minimum wages by region, an idea the state of New York adopted in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Why is that approach not the best one?\" Obernolte said. \"How can you argue that the cost of living in California is the same as the cost of living in Iowa?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://irle.berkeley.edu/new-cwed-study-low-wage-areas-can-afford-15-hr-minimum-wage/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2019 study from UC Berkeley’s Center on Wage and Employment Dynamics\u003c/a> found that large minimum wage hikes in areas with lower median wages, such as Fresno, still benefited low-wage workers without costing many jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"minimum-wage\"]But Alec Levenson, research scientist at the USC Marshall School of Business, said Congress should be careful about following California's path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is a good idea to think about having a minimum wage that would vary according to whether you're talking about more rural areas or more urban areas,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Rep. Jimmy Gomez, D-Los Angeles, was also in the state Assembly during California's minimum wage debate. Like Obernolte, he thought a regional minimum wage system would have been a better approach — one that would have raised the wage floor above $15 in pricey areas like the L.A. region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Gomez, who worked minimum wage jobs at Subway and Target after high school, said a lengthy debate on how to set a regional system was less important than moving quickly toward a wage hike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If we waited for a consensus to emerge around a regional approach, it would have been a couple of years in the making,\" Gomez said. \"I know when I was working those jobs, it would have been the difference between saving $800 or saving a few thousand dollars in a short period of time.\"\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\n\"One of the main lessons that we learned was not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good; do not get so wedded on your own particular idea of how to increase the minimum wage — let's just increase the minimum wage,\" he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, there's the question of process. California's minimum wage debate took center stage in the state Legislature, and Republicans like Obernolte say they'd prefer a similar standalone debate on a federal raise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that seems unlikely at the moment: Biden's proposal is just one piece of the administration's coronavirus relief package currently being negotiated in Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Currently, \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncsl.org/research/labor-and-employment/state-minimum-wage-chart.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">29 states\u003c/a> have a minimum above the current federal floor of $7.25 an hour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butler, now director of public policy at Airbnb, said the increases have set the table for national legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I am a member of Congress or if I am President Biden, I now have proof points that economies can continue to survive, local businesses can continue to survive and our economies can continue to grow,\" she said.\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/AHC_UzavmW0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/AHC_UzavmW0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Ken Jacobs, chair of the UC Berkeley Labor Center, said there is a lag time in researchers’ ability to analyze California's gradual move toward a $15 minimum wage, which reached $14 an hour for large employers this year and $13 for small businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Jacobs said similar increases in cities such as San Francisco \"have led to measurable, strong increases in workers' pay, [and] we are not seeing effects on employment overall.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics of Biden's minimum wage proposal argue that workers and businesses outside of urban centers will be hurt most by the plan. And they point to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2019-07/CBO-55410-MinimumWage2019.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2019 Congressional Budget Office estimate\u003c/a> that a $15 minimum wage bill would result in the same number of people losing their jobs (1.3 million) as those lifted out of poverty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The cost of living in an area like the Bay Area or San Diego is very different than the cost of living in the places that I represent in rural California,\" said U.S. Rep. Jay Obernolte, R-Big Bear Lake. \"The minimum wage should reflect that, if the intention is to pay people enough to live on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obernolte, who started his own video game business before serving in the state Assembly, voted against California's minimum wage hike\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160SB3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">.\u003c/a> He said California, and now the nation, would be better served by a plan that sets different minimum wages by region, an idea the state of New York adopted in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Why is that approach not the best one?\" Obernolte said. \"How can you argue that the cost of living in California is the same as the cost of living in Iowa?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://irle.berkeley.edu/new-cwed-study-low-wage-areas-can-afford-15-hr-minimum-wage/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2019 study from UC Berkeley’s Center on Wage and Employment Dynamics\u003c/a> found that large minimum wage hikes in areas with lower median wages, such as Fresno, still benefited low-wage workers without costing many jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Jimmy Gomez, D-Los Angeles, was also in the state Assembly during California's minimum wage debate. Like Obernolte, he thought a regional minimum wage system would have been a better approach — one that would have raised the wage floor above $15 in pricey areas like the L.A. region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Gomez, who worked minimum wage jobs at Subway and Target after high school, said a lengthy debate on how to set a regional system was less important than moving quickly toward a wage hike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If we waited for a consensus to emerge around a regional approach, it would have been a couple of years in the making,\" Gomez said. \"I know when I was working those jobs, it would have been the difference between saving $800 or saving a few thousand dollars in a short period of time.\"\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom and some of the ideas promoted by Democrats as an opportunity they haven't had in more than a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stutzman says the current political environment, stoked by the governor’s uneven handling of the pandemic, opens the door for a Republican return to relevance. \"Newsom has provided a real rallying point, organizational point for Republicans that they never had during the Jerry Brown years,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, Newsom was dealt a much tougher hand than Gov. Brown. He didn’t cause the pandemic. But his handling of it — compounded by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11857101/unemployed-californians-pay-the-price-as-edd-struggles-to-sort-fraud-from-fair-claims\">the massive failure of the state’s unemployment agency under his watch\u003c/a> — has generated anger even among some people who voted for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Hoover Institution’s Lanhee Chen, who works in Republican politics, sees a real opportunity for the party in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I live in the middle of a very progressive part of California. And I talk to moms and dads every day who just don't understand why we can't get basic things right,\" Chen says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s Republican party has been shrinking for years — it’s now just a quarter of registered voters. Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger warned about its decline at a party convention in 2007, saying, \"We're dying at the box office,\" and urging party leaders to move toward the middle of the political spectrum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Lanhee Chen, Hoover Institution\"]\"The most important thing that Republicans can do is to articulate what it is that you're actually going to do if you're given the opportunity to lead. And that's something that I think, unfortunately, Republicans haven't been good enough at doing.\"[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The party rejected that advice and many eventually rejected Schwarzenegger, too, with conservatives calling him a RINO — Republican in name only.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwarzenegger recently returned the favor, releasing a much-watched \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_P-0I6sAck\">video\u003c/a> comparing fringe elements of the GOP who challenged Joe Biden's victory over Donald Trump to the Nazis of his youth in Austria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Schwarzenegger left office in 2011, Republicans have been frozen out of statewide office so long they’ve become little more than critics. Lanhee Chen says that needs to change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The most important thing that Republicans can do is to articulate what it is that you're actually going to do if you're given the opportunity to lead. And that's something that I think, unfortunately, Republicans haven't been good enough at doing,\" Chen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP consultant Stutzman adds that the party as it stands today will require a significant upgrade in \"organizational coherency\" before making real gains in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's an opportunity to suggest that government could be more competently run, more efficiently,\" said Stutzman, who remained a Republican despite misgivings about Trump. \"But, you know, we talk about the Republican Party — it's really not an entity that's organized in any way.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chad Mayes — once the Republican leader in the Assembly — left the GOP over former President Trump, and got reelected last year as a member of no party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today, the Trump Republicans own the Republican Party nationally and the Trump Republicans own the California Republican Party as well,\" Mayes said. \"The question is, will they pivot and shift into a new direction?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_P-0I6sAck\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayes, I-Yucca Valley, thinks the party took a step in that direction recently by ditching state Senate Republican Leader Shannon Grove, R-Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Shannon represented the extreme part of the Republican Party, that these are the Trump supporters, the MAGA supporters and maybe even some of the QAnon conspirators,\" Mayes said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The caucus replaced her with its most moderate member, state Sen. Scott Wilk, R-Santa Clarita, who just won reelection in an increasingly purple district in the exurbs of Los Angeles. Mayes says elevating Wilk, who is a more traditional conservative, shows Republicans are trying to rebrand the party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Scott understands that for the Republican Party to succeed in California, it has to begin to act and behave a lot more like what Californians believe,\" Mayes said. \"I think that's a good development for that caucus and for the Republican Party at large,\" Mayes said.[aside postID=\"news_11854275\" label=\"CA Republicans and the Attack on the Capitol\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lanhee Chen agrees. \"The Senate caucus and the Assembly caucus, I mean, their responsibility is to demonstrate an alternative vision to poor governance. And if making that change in leadership allows them to do that better, then I think that's great,\" Chen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Changing its leaders may help the party rebrand itself. But even though Republicans picked up four congressional seats in California last November, it will require more than an insider shake-up to make serious inroads with voters and make up for decades of decline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They have a very long way to go before accumulating any real power in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\n",

They are also pushing for the swift reversal of hundreds of former President Donald Trump’s restrictive policies, which they say fed a poisonous climate of hostility toward immigrants and their families, regardless of legal status. Within hours of being sworn in, Biden began issuing \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11856440/bidens-day-1-immigration-reform-plan-sparks-hope-in-california\">executive orders to revoke some of those measures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After four years of one attack on immigrants after another, to see the immediate action taken by the Biden-Harris administration ... is a really good starting point,” said Kamal Essaheb, deputy director of the National Immigration Law Center, a nonprofit based in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., that’s a member of the coalition. “Now is the time to start turning the corner and projecting our values as a country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to allowing unauthorized immigrants who pay taxes and pass criminal background checks to become citizens in eight years or less, Biden’s bill would also:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Reduce backlogs for legal immigration by ending per-country visa caps\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Eliminate the \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.uscis.gov/laws-and-policy/other-resources/unlawful-presence-and-bars-to-admissibility\">3- and 10-year bars\u003c/a>\" that block people who've lived in the U.S. illegally from reentering to become legal residents\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Prioritize visas for foreign STEM graduates of U.S. universities\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Target border enforcement on criminal organizations\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Increase technology at the border and ports of entry\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Restore discretion to immigration judges to reduce court backlogs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Address the roots of migration from Central America by investing in economic development and anti-corruption efforts there\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The plan has special resonance in California, which is home to 1 in 4 of all the immigrants in the country, including roughly 2 million unauthorized immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s not lost on Padilla, a Democrat who was sworn in last Wednesday to fill the Senate seat vacated by Vice President Harris. Padilla often talks about his own parents, who came to California from Mexico in the 1960s in search of opportunity, but who often faced discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No state has more at stake in these reforms than the state of California, just by the numbers,” he said recently. “We’re home to more immigrants, documented and undocumented, than any state in the nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11857401\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Padilla-Zoom.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11857401\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Padilla-Zoom.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Padilla-Zoom-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Padilla-Zoom-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Padilla-Zoom-160x90.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Padilla-Zoom-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">California Sen.

Gavin Newsom tapped him for the Senate vacancy, Padilla reached out to California immigrant rights leaders for an early talk about how to roll back Trump’s punitive policies and offer unauthorized people the security of legal status and the chance to become full Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The average undocumented immigrant has \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/hispanic/2018/11/27/unauthorized-immigrants-are-more-likely-to-be-long-term-residents/\">lived in the U.S. for 15 years\u003c/a>, usually with no way to become a legal resident, according to estimates from the Pew Research Center. And advocates have been pushing for two decades to give them a path to citizenship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Major immigration reform bills have been advanced repeatedly over the past 15 years, most with bipartisan support, and none have reached a president’s desk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those so-called comprehensive immigration reform bills combined a path to citizenship and an overhaul of the immigration system with steep increases in immigration enforcement, both at the borders and inside the country, something Republicans sought.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After four years in which Trump focused exclusively on enforcement, there's almost none of that in Biden's proposal. Some Republicans in the Senate are calling it a “mass amnesty.” And Sen. Robert Menendez, D-New Jersey, who will introduce the bill, acknowledges it is a starting point for negotiation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But today, Congress is more polarized than ever. Though the House of Representatives is in Democratic control and has approved recent liberal immigration bills, in the Senate, the bill’s backers must overcome the \u003ca href=\"https://www.brookings.edu/policy2020/votervital/what-is-the-senate-filibuster-and-what-would-it-take-to-eliminate-it/\">filibuster rule\u003c/a>, which would require 60 senators to bring the issue to a vote. Democrats have just 50 seats, plus a tie-breaking vote from Vice President Harris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s leading Democrats and many immigrant advocates to strategize about other approaches. \u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A Path to Citizenship as Part of COVID-19 Relief?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Rather than invest everything in one big bill, some suggest breaking efforts toward a path to citizenship into smaller chunks, through bills like the American Dream and Promise Act for undocumented youth and people with temporary protected status, or a farmworker bill, both of which have already passed the House with bipartisan support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights\"]'You can't battle the pandemic and provide relief if essential immigrant undocumented workers are left out.'[/pullquote]Padilla and others are turning their focus to undocumented immigrants working in essential industries – including food production and health care – during the pandemic. They’re calling on the Biden administration to include a path to citizenship for some 5 million essential workers as part of the president’s $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have deemed so many of them as essential and we have an obligation to treat them as essential,” said Padilla. “It's not an 'either or.' We are pushing for the whole 11 million, but with the urgency of COVID-19 relief, it seems that there is a quick, easy way to get a good number of these folks covered and protected sooner rather than later.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added: \"We have deemed so many of them essential and we have an obligation to treat them as essential ... History will remember them as American heroes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coronavirus relief bill, which could be debated as early as next week, is a golden opportunity, said Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we want to make sure that everybody understands is, you can't battle the pandemic and provide relief if essential immigrant undocumented workers are left out,\" she said. \"So we want immediately for them to be included and legalized through this process.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='immigration']Including legalization in the COVID-19 relief bill is significant because Senate Democrats are already taking steps to use an arcane process called \u003ca href=\"https://budget.house.gov/publications/fact-sheet/budget-reconciliation-basics\">budget reconciliation\u003c/a> that would allow them to pass the relief package with a simple majority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tom Jawetz, vice president for immigration policy at the Center for American Progress, a liberal Washington, D.C., think tank, believes the reconciliation process will be key.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While we know for a fact the president does not approach these negotiations from the perspective of relying upon only Democratic votes to get relief to the public that they need, it is an important tool at the president's disposal,” Jawetz said. “It’s a technique that can be used to get big legislation done when it needs to get done.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jawetz said he and others have been consulting former Senate parliamentarians to understand how to include a tailored legalization program for essential workers in the COVID-19 bill in a way that would pass muster in the reconciliation process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We think there's a strong case to be made that it would comply with the rules,” he said. “The moment for decisive action is now. This is when we can make a really big impact.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One factor that’s working in favor of Congress passing immigration reform: Polling shows \u003ca href=\"https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2021/01/22/bidens_immigration_plans_face_a_warming_public_reception_145089.html\">68% of Americans\u003c/a> – including majorities of Republicans as well as Democrats – favor legalizing undocumented immigrants, and that support has grown markedly since Trump took office four years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",
