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.",

"content": "\u003cp>It's a long way from becoming law, but the Trump administration's proposed budget for transportation comes with a message for traffic-choked regions like the Bay Area: If you want big new transit projects to ease the congestion you're seeing, or if you're looking to make major new investments so your existing transit systems work better, that's your business -- the federal government's not going to help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration's \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/whitehouse.gov/files/omb/budget/fy2018/2018_blueprint.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">preliminary spending plan\u003c/a>, made public Thursday, would end the Department of Transportation's Capital Improvement Grant program, an initiative that has been crucial to big-ticket projects in the Bay Area, across the state and throughout the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4>Trump administration transportation budget\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>The preliminary proposal for the Department of Transportation recommends cutting discretionary spending by 13 percent, from $18.6 billion to $16.2 billion, in fiscal year 2018. Here are major cuts and changes in current programs:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>End support for Amtrak's long-distance intercity trains like the California Zephyr, which runs from Emeryville to Chicago, and the Coast Starlight, from Los Angeles to Seattle.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>End a program that helps pay for commercial air service to small cities -- in California, we're talking about places like the North Coast town of Crescent City and the San Joaquin Valley communities of Merced and Visalia.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Privatize the nation's air traffic control system.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>In the past, the grant program has helped fund BART's extension to San Francisco International Airport, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfcta.org/central-subway\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco's Central Subway project\u003c/a>, now under construction and due to open in 2019, and the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority's \u003ca href=\"http://www.vta.org/bart/stationsbart\" target=\"_blank\">BART extension into San Jose\u003c/a>, the first phase of which is due to open later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elimination of the program, also known as New Starts, is far from a done deal. Thursday's budget proposal is just the first step in a long process that won't conclude until the fall, and New Starts has enjoyed wide support, even in a fiscally conservative, Republican-dominated Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But major Bay Area transit agencies are expressing concern, because the program figures prominently in plans to aid a series of ambitious projects that local officials say are crucial to adding capacity to the region's overtaxed transit services. The initiatives include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Caltrain's request for $647 million to help pay for electrification of its line from Silicon Valley to downtown San Francisco.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A BART project seeking between $900 million and $1 billion to modernize its train control system, upgrade its electrical equipment, finish work on a new maintenance center in Hayward and supplement its Fleet of the Future with 306 new train cars.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The VTA's request for $1.5 billion to extend BART to downtown San Jose.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The Trump proposal would apparently honor several billion dollars' worth of projects that have already obtained what the Department of Transportation calls a Full-Funding Grant Agreement, a document akin to a contract. But none of the Bay Area projects are quite at that point. The grants are contingent on a range of factors, including obtaining local and state funding and a sound financial plan, including making sure transit agencies are prepared to pay for cost overruns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Caltrain electrification project was \u003ca href=\"https://www.enotrans.org/article/usdot-puts-bay-area-commuter-rail-project-hold/\" target=\"_blank\">at the very threshold\u003c/a> of getting its final funding agreement in place last month when the Department of Transportation put the funding request on hold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seamus Murphy, Caltrain's chief spokesman, said in an email from Washington, D.C., on Thursday that the electrification proposal \"continues to be in limbo.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The project checks all of the boxes that the administration has said it wants to accomplish through infrastructure investment,\" Murphy said. \"Caltrain electrification is the most shovel-ready transit project in the country, and we hope to be counted as an existing FFGA in whatever budget is ultimately approved.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART's grant request is a key part of its plan to expand service between the East Bay and San Francisco. Funding would help pay for a new train control system and to increase the number of new cars the district is buying from 775 to 1,081.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART says the new control system would allow it to send 30 cars per hour through the Transbay Tube instead of the current 23. Taking that step and adding the extra cars would expand passenger capacity by 49 percent, the agency says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project \"is critical for us,\" BART spokesman Jim Allison said. \"Most of our riders are going through the Transbay Tube and our peak-hour trains are packed. If we can get more trains through there, we can absorb additional riders and make more room for people who are riding now in cramped quarters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>VTA spokesperson Linh Hoang emphasized that the spending proposal released today is preliminary and that the budget process -- with a more complete fiscal plan due later in the spring followed by congressional revisions -- has a long way to go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're moving forward as planned\" on the BART extension to San Jose, she said. \"We're hoping that Congress will see the value of this project and intervene to get it funded.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if that doesn't happen?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We will be working diligently to fill that funding gap. This is a project our county has wanted for a long time -- for decades,\" Hoang said, noting that voters have passed two major sales tax measures to support the BART extension.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Here are major cuts and changes in current programs:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>End support for Amtrak's long-distance intercity trains like the California Zephyr, which runs from Emeryville to Chicago, and the Coast Starlight, from Los Angeles to Seattle.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>End a program that helps pay for commercial air service to small cities -- in California, we're talking about places like the North Coast town of Crescent City and the San Joaquin Valley communities of Merced and Visalia.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Privatize the nation's air traffic control system.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>In the past, the grant program has helped fund BART's extension to San Francisco International Airport, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfcta.org/central-subway\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco's Central Subway project\u003c/a>, now under construction and due to open in 2019, and the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority's \u003ca href=\"http://www.vta.org/bart/stationsbart\" target=\"_blank\">BART extension into San Jose\u003c/a>, the first phase of which is due to open later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elimination of the program, also known as New Starts, is far from a done deal. Thursday's budget proposal is just the first step in a long process that won't conclude until the fall, and New Starts has enjoyed wide support, even in a fiscally conservative, Republican-dominated Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But major Bay Area transit agencies are expressing concern, because the program figures prominently in plans to aid a series of ambitious projects that local officials say are crucial to adding capacity to the region's overtaxed transit services. The initiatives include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Caltrain's request for $647 million to help pay for electrification of its line from Silicon Valley to downtown San Francisco.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A BART project seeking between $900 million and $1 billion to modernize its train control system, upgrade its electrical equipment, finish work on a new maintenance center in Hayward and supplement its Fleet of the Future with 306 new train cars.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The VTA's request for $1.5 billion to extend BART to downtown San Jose.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The Trump proposal would apparently honor several billion dollars' worth of projects that have already obtained what the Department of Transportation calls a Full-Funding Grant Agreement, a document akin to a contract. But none of the Bay Area projects are quite at that point. The grants are contingent on a range of factors, including obtaining local and state funding and a sound financial plan, including making sure transit agencies are prepared to pay for cost overruns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Funding would help pay for a new train control system and to increase the number of new cars the district is buying from 775 to 1,081.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART says the new control system would allow it to send 30 cars per hour through the Transbay Tube instead of the current 23. Taking that step and adding the extra cars would expand passenger capacity by 49 percent, the agency says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project \"is critical for us,\" BART spokesman Jim Allison said. \"Most of our riders are going through the Transbay Tube and our peak-hour trains are packed. If we can get more trains through there, we can absorb additional riders and make more room for people who are riding now in cramped quarters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>VTA spokesperson Linh Hoang emphasized that the spending proposal released today is preliminary and that the budget process -- with a more complete fiscal plan due later in the spring followed by congressional revisions -- has a long way to go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're moving forward as planned\" on the BART extension to San Jose, she said. \"We're hoping that Congress will see the value of this project and intervene to get it funded.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if that doesn't happen?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We will be working diligently to fill that funding gap. This is a project our county has wanted for a long time -- for decades,\" Hoang said, noting that voters have passed two major sales tax measures to support the BART extension.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Advance reservations are not available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The service includes a one-way ride for the driver and vehicle to the driver's home, up to 10 miles away from the point of pick-up.

They’re also seeking to limit the amount pay for medical benefits (they currently pay a flat $92 a month for family coverage) and for pensions (currently, workers do not contribute to their pension plan).
