very eight years, state housing regulators give cities and counties across California an especially dreaded homework assignment: Make a plan for a bunch of new homes. Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration assigns localities goals to hit at four different affordability levels. Collectively, the numbers represent the housing department’s best estimate of the number of new homes needed to match any expected population growth and to chip away at the state’s decades-in-themaking shortage of affordable places to live. With these targets meted out to each region on a rolling basis, this summer, a massive chunk of the state, including all of Southern California, passed its halfway mark. So in the spirit of a mid-term exam, how are cities and counties doing? Bad news, California. If this were graded, the state would abound in D’s and F’s. Less than a third of cities and counties are on track to permit enough “above moderate” units, the category that typically refers to market-rate housing, according to data submitted by locals to the state housing department. The progress report for more affordable types of housing is even bleaker. Only 32 jurisdictions — less than 6% — are on track to hit their “very low” targets. That refers to housing within financial reach of anyone earning less than half the typical local income. After years of nudging, political trolling and litigating, most cities and counties now have state-approved plans in place. But as the production numbers show,

it’s one thing to plan and another to build. Almost nowhere in the state is actually seeing the new construction necessary “to meet the housing needs of all Californians,” as housing regulators have described these targets. Only five jurisdictions in the entire state are permitting at a pace to hit all four income targets. Four are the lightly populated unincorporated bits of small, mostly rural counties: Plumas, Napa, Yolo and Mono. The fifth is Placerville, a town of roughly 11,000 people in the Sierra foothills east of Sacramento. To be “on track,” a city or county needs to issue permits at a clip that, if sustained, would allow it to hit its state targets by the end of its planning cycle. State housing regulators told the city of Irvine in

Orange County, for example, to plan for 8,671 market-rate units by 2030. Now halfway there, the city has issued more than 6,000, making it one of the minority of cities to be on pace to reach its target for above-moderate housing. But for more affordable digs, Irvine, like most California cities, is far behind. The city has permitted just 9% of the very low-income housing needed to reach its target by the end of the decade. For the next most affordable category, which refers to units priced for those earning up to 80% of the regional median, it’s at a mere 3%. What’s the housing hold up? For anyone who has been monitoring the pace of new See Housing Page 03

residential development in California over the last half century, the disconnect between housing planned and housing permitted won’t come as a surprise. The state’s total planning target adds up to nearly 2.5 million units over eight years, a reduction of the even more ambitious 3.5 million target Newsom set for his administration during his 2017 election. That 2.5 million figure works out to 312,500 new homes per year. Even during the state’s boomingest boom years in the early 1960s and mid-1980s, construction figures never reached such lofty heights. This decade, despite a blizzard of state legislation and policy changes aimed at boosting the construction of

os Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger and the Every Fire Survivors Network have asked state lawmakers for more transparency and focus on survivors’ needs as they negotiate financial regulations for utility and insurance companies that will determine a framework for wildfire recovery. Barger, whose 5th District includes Altadena and communities devastated in the deadly January 2025 Eaton Fire, has written to Gov. Gavin Newsom asking that legislation “prioritize wildfire survivors.” According to EFSN Executive director Joy Chen, Newsom and State Assembly members are crafting “a secret utility bailout that could cripple every Eaton Fire survivor, every future survivor and entire communities for generations.” Recent public discussion has focused on Newsom’s proposed $150,000 cap on utility company payouts for “survivors’ pain and suffering,” Chen wrote in a mass email Tuesday. “Nothing is written. Nothing is public. When I asked the Governor’s office directly for the bill text, they said no to my face,” Chen wrote. “Yet Newsom is demanding that lawmakers rubber-stamp it before the legislative session ends” at midnight on Aug. 31. Anthony Martinez, a spokesman for Newsom, said “California’s resiliency in the face of persistent wildfires depends on sustained investment in risk reduction, a healthy insurance market and fiscally sound utilities.” In an email to HeySoCal. com, he said “California has See Utility ‘bailout’ Page 23

met this moment before by creating the Wildfire Fund and passing SB 254,” adding that “the California Earthquake Authority’s Senate Bill 254 Study Report also describes the cost of inaction. And so, we must continue to work together to address the complex and interconnected challenges Californians face from the increasing risk of catastrophic wildfire. ... Together with the legislature, our focus is protecting people, communities and California’s future.” Barger said the state “needs a sustainable wildfire liability system, and I support efforts to get financial assistance to survivors faster. But faster payments cannot come at the expense of a survivor’s right to pursue full and fair compensation. “The Eaton Fire continues showing us that wildfire devastation lingers. In Altadena, families lost homes, businesses and everything they had built,” Barger’s statement continued. “While many survivors are rebuilding and navigating the financial and emotional consequences of that loss, others have not even been able to begin rebuilding because they remain paralyzed by overwhelming financial pressures and constraints. A fast-pay program can be part of the solution, but it should be an option for survivors — not a substitute for their legal rights. “Any reforms that limit recovery, weaken accountability or shift costs onto survivors, local governments or taxpayers deserve serious scrutiny,” Barger also sent Newsom a letter Tuesday “requesting clarity on such a legislative

Newsom makes last-minute push to help California utilities facing wildfire bills By Jeane Kuang and Levi Sumagaysay, CalMatters This story was originally published by CalMatters.

I

n the final few weeks of his last legislative session as California Gov. Gavin Newsom is asking lawmakers to help reduce how much profit-making utility companies must pay out after wildfires. His administration has for weeks floated to lawmakers a wide-ranging but still-vague package of bills to address the spiraling costs of wildfires that has made a slew of different interests unhappy. Insurance companies have launched an ad campaign against what they call a potential “utility bailout,” that would leave them unable to recover from the power companies the costs of paying homeowners’ insurance claims. Attorneys representing fire survivors and other plaintiffs that sue utilities don’t want to see their fees reduced. Wildfire survivors worry the governor’s proposal would prevent them from being made financially whole for suffering trauma. Local government leaders are demanding that they continue to be paid the full cost to rebuild incinerated infrastructure. On the other side are the politically influential utilities, who have drawn fury for their equipment sparking several of the state’s most devastating wildfires. The state’s three investorowned utilities, Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas and Electric, aren’t in imminent financial danger and last year saw profits rise. But fire costs have contributed to Californians paying the secondhighest electricity rates in the country, and lawmakers and Newsom’s office worry that if it becomes harder for utilities to borrow money those bills will continue to climb. The utilities together provide power for about three-quarters of the state. Newsom and the lawmakers say utilities are held responsible for too much after a wildfire and that bad actors like hedge funds are taking advantage to get a cut. If another devastating wildfire triggers damages too high for a utility to pay, the potentially resulting bankruptcy would make it even harder for victims to collect. “The status quo doesn’t work,” Newsom said at a press conference last week when asked whether his proposal is in the best interests of fire survivors. “And we’re trying to balance all of those needs in a very familiar process that

will unfold over the course of the next few months.” CalMatters asked the governor’s office whether the timeline Newsom mentioned was correct, considering the legislative session ends in three weeks. A spokesperson said the governor meant “the next couple of months of the legislative session,” and did not respond to whether Newsom will call a special session to address the issue. As he mulls a presidential run, Newsom has political incentive to push through a deal. Opponents from the right are eager to paint California as unaffordable and lurching through disasters; further rate hikes or the specter of a utility bankruptcy wouldn’t help. But backing the utilities also comes with risks: Anger at the companies remains fresh after Edison was last week found by Cal Fire and the Los Angeles County Fire Department to be responsible for the January 2025 Eaton Fire that killed 19 people in Altadena. The chair of a key Assembly committee, Democratic Assemblymember Cottie Petrie-Norris, is generally on board with Newsom’s proposals, but lawmakers in the Senate appear less certain. Fire survivors are urging them to slow down and commit to a more public debate. “You cannot be ‘there are some bad actors’ and therefore we will have a secret bill,” said Joy Chen, who leads a group of Los Angeles wildfire survivors. “Then your bill is the bad actor.” A familiar fight It’s a redux of a bitter fight that has bookended Newsom’s time as governor. He stepped into his role in the wake of devastating wildfires that tore through Northern California in 2017 and 2018, several of which PG&E was found to have been responsible for. The utility was in a bind: Under California law it was strictly liable for fires that were getting more severe, partly due to climate change, and regulators were no longer letting the companies pass damages onto customers in cases where they were found careless. Facing mounting suits from victims and insurance companies, the company in 2019 declared bankruptcy. Newsom quickly signed legislation to help buffer utilities from those claims, drawing accusations of a bailout. The state created a $21 billion wildfire fund, paid for half

by utility shareholders and half by customers through a $2.50 surcharge on their monthly electricity bills, to pay victims’ claims, provided the utilities follow stricter safety regulations. Then in January 2025, during an intense windstorm, electricity arcing from a century-old out-of-service Edison tower in Southern California’s Eaton Canyon set dry brush ablaze. The resulting Eaton Fire, burning at the same time as the deadly Palisades Fire, claimed 19 lives and nearly 9,500 homes and other buildings. UCLA estimated losses at between $24 billion and 45 billion. The state wildfire fund is expected to be drained once the costs of insurance claims, Edison’s multimillion-dollar voluntary settlements with survivors and numerous unsettled lawsuits are tallied. (Lawmakers extended the fund last year to address future fires, adding to electricity customers’ surcharges through 2045.) Profiteering hedge funds have sought to take advantage by buying up insurance claims. Newsom’s goal is twofold: Limit who can make claims to the fund and limit how much they can get. In private briefings last week and a document outlining his package released Tuesday, his office said he would combine the cost reductions with bills to boost home hardening, help homeowners get off the state’s insurer-of-lastresort and re-enter the home insurance market, tie utility executive pay to safety and require shareholders to pay down customers’ rates for two summers. Details of the package remain scant. The outline released Tuesday did not include proposed legislative language. CalMatters contacted the state’s three major utility companies. San Diego Gas & Electric did not respond. PG&E and Edison referred questions to Nathan Click, spokesperson for the utilities’ campaign, which is called Wildfire Victims First and has been blanketing the state with ads telling Californians to urge their lawmakers to act. Click, who is also a political spokesperson for Newsom, did not answer specific questions, including whether utilities are meeting directly with lawmakers. Instead, he shared statements from a handful of business groups and a powerful electrical workers’ union urging

lawmakers to advocate for the proposed liability reduction. In addition, the chief executives of PG&E and Edison have said they plan to take action to protect their shareholders if California lawmakers do not pass legislation to limit their fire liability. They did not specify what they planned to do. Over the past four years PG&E, Edison and SDG&E collectively spent $5.2 million on California political campaigns, sponsored travel for lawmakers and donations to officials’ favored charities, according to CalMatters’ Digital Democracy database. PG&E also has the fifth-highest spending on lobbying in the 2025-2026 legislative session and was the top spender from April through June. In the first half of this year, the three utilities reported spending nearly $7 million to influence Newsom’s administration, the Legislature and their regulators at the California Public Utilities Commission. Limiting damages Newsom suggests chipping away at utilities’ liabilities by limiting attorneys’ fees, reducing the amount of money local governments can recoup to rebuild burned infrastructure and curbing how much some victims can receive in damages. His proposal would set up a state-administered “fast pay” program to prioritize wildfire fund payouts for survivors whose loved ones are killed, who are injured or whose properties are destroyed. To participate, claimants would likely need to give up their right to sue

the utility — trading an often lengthy wait through litigation to get comprehensive damages in exchange for the relief of a quicker payout. For other victims “in harm’s way,” the Tuesday outline suggests allowing up to $150,000 in damages. Newsom’s office and Petrie-Norris, who generally supports the idea, said they do not intend to limit emotional distress claims for survivors they deem legitimate but those kinds of damages should be curbed for others. “If you were part of a disaster no one’s going to say you can’t make a claim,” Petrie-Norris, an Irvine Democrat who chairs the Assembly utilities committee, said. “If you did not actually experience a disaster, what non-economic damages should you be entitled to?” Petrie-Norris and Newsom are concerned about billboard attorneys who seek clients to file lawsuits against utilities and the wildfire fund; one study has found attorneys are likely to get 30% to 40% of victims’ payouts. Groups representing survivors and attorneys argue it’s not so clear who should count as a victim. Residents who lost no property and stayed in their homes miles away could still be harmed by smoke inhalation, for example. Chen said she was “stunned” after she was briefed by the governor’s office last week and was told that only people who are evacuated and have their See Wildfire bills Page 23

house burn down would be eligible for non-economic damages. “Let’s say someone was out of town, but their house burned down so they didn’t evacuate,” she said. “But they lost everything, so they have to rebuild. So you won’t compensate them for pain and suffering?” Newsom also wants to stop investors from buying claims and prioritize small business claimants over corporations, but his office has not explained how to accomplish that. The proposed bill package has so incensed some wildfire victims that opponents of the plan have shrugged at arguments that some claimants are taking advantage of the Wildfire Fund. “The utilities are finding a lot of creative ways to avoid responsibility. That’s it,” said Graham Knaus, chief executive of the California Association of Counties. “We should not be opening the door for them to escape accountability.” Shifting costs Another component of the outline released Tuesday could affect homeowners across the state. Newsom is proposing to limit — or eliminate entirely — insurance companies’ right to recoup money from utilities when a utility-caused fire forces those insurers to pay out homeowners’ claims. The process is known as subrogation. The two powerful industries have been at odds over it for years. Utilities and insurance

new homes, the number of new homes built annually is still just north of 100,000. Critics of the state’s planning process have long stressed that California’s targets are unrealistic and that local governments can only do so much. “Cities cannot require developers to develop and cities don’t build housing,” said Jason Rhine, a lobbyist with the League of California Cities. You can lead a developer to a rezoned plot of land, in other words, but you can’t make them build. Pro-development advocates counter that the uninspiring production numbers suggest that cities still aren’t doing enough to welcome more housing. “Cities can argue that they don’t directly control production, but they do control fees, zoning and permitting,” said Laura Foote, executive director of YIMBY Action. The housing needs allocation process “is only as good as we have the political will to actually hold cities accountable.” Foote directed some of the blame at state housing regulators for failing to compel cities to adopt more developmentfriendly policies. In a written statement, housing department spokesperson Jennifer Hanson said regulators are “actively monitoring and enforcing” the commitments each jurisdiction has made in its housing plans. She also pointed to a couple of recent laws exempting many urban housing developments from environmental litigation and requiring local governments to allow for taller buildings near major public transportation stops. Both have already been used to “advance approved projects representing thousands of proposed homes,” she said. There are many reasons that developers may or may not choose to build in a particular location. Some are in the power of local and state governments, like zoning and building codes, permitting timelines and fees. But many are not, said Hanson. “Whether a project moves forward depends on interest rates, construction and land costs, access to capital, insurance and expected rents or sale prices,” she said. Affordable housing construction faces an additional hurdle: A lack of public money. With very few exceptions, building

homes that are affordable to those making below average incomes in California requires public subsidies, philanthropic capital or other lenders and investors willing to take a loss. Taxpayer support provided by the state has been in short supply after a voter-approved bond from 2018 that provided funding for California’s signature affordable development subsidy ran dry. That explains why the affordable production numbers are so much lower. Affordable developers and other housing advocates are hoping voters will back an $11.25 billion state bond in November to replenish the coffers. Meanwhile, “moderate” income housing is especially tough to build, facing the financial worst of both worlds. It often doesn’t qualify for affordable subsidy programs that prioritize projects serving people further down the income ladder. But rents affordable to those earning

median incomes are often too low for unsubsidized developers hoping to turn a profit. An escape valve The state may force local governments to lay the groundwork for new development — identifying potential sites, rezoning to allow for denser housing, changing local laws that make construction more economically feasible. But historically, local governments haven’t faced any consequences if nothing actually gets built. That changed in 2017, when state lawmakers passed a landmark housing bill aimed at boosting new housing production where it was most needed. In jurisdictions that are halfway through their planning process but have yet to permit at least half their housing targets for above-moderate, low- and very low-income housing (housing affordable to a “moderate” income level isn’t included), the law requires local governments to fast track most apart-

ment and condo projects. In exchange, developers have to set aside a certain number of affordable units and pay their workers more. Of the 212 Southern California cities and counties that crossed the halfway point this year, all but four failed to hit those numbers and are now subject to the streamlining law. But if history is any guide, that alone isn’t likely to trigger a building boom. Private developers have insisted that the affordability requirements and higher wage standards written into the law make projects infeasible everywhere but in the highest rent neighborhoods. Since 2018, the law has been used to green light 27,961 units, according to the state’s housing department. That’s a significant sum, but it’s far from enough to close the gap.

Judge denies Trump admin bid to dismiss immigration raids lawsuit By Fred Shuster, City News Service

A

Los Angeles federal judge has rejected the Trump administration’s attempt to end a closely watched lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security alleging immigration raids in Southern California are not just unlawful, but deliberately designed to target Latino communities, according to court papers obtained Wednesday. Residents, workers and advocacy groups sued the DHS in July 2025, alleging unconstitutional stop and detention practices by agents tied to arbitrary enforcement quotas. An amended complaint filed in Los Angeles federal court earlier this year adds new claims of violations of equal protection and use of unreasonable tactics by DHS agents. Government attorneys then asked the court to immediately toss the case, arguing that accusations in the updated version of the complaint are not enough to support plaintiffs’ legal claims. On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Maame Frimpong, who

is overseeing the case, determined in a written ruling that “the accusations are enough for this case to go forward at this time,” and denied the DHS’ bid to have the lawsuit

thrown out. The judge emphasized that at this stage in proceedings she has made no finding on the truth of the allegations, an issue that would be

determined later. Asked for a response, a DHS spokesman did not comment on the judge’s ruling, but said the media was focusing on the wrong issues. “Our agents are focused on protecting the American people -- not entertaining performative outrage,” according to the statement. “Where is the media’s outrage for Angel families who lost a loved one to illegal alien crime?” In the amended complaint, the plaintiffs argued the government is intentionally discriminating against Latino communities in California, choosing whom to stop and which locations to raid based on race, and treating Latino people differently because of their apparent ethnicity. They also argued that U.S. Immigration and Customs

Enforcement and Border Patrol were using highly intrusive tactics in carrying out the raids -- such as handcuffing, confinement, moving people to a secondary location, and prolonged detention. Agents, the plaintiffs contend, were quick to both show and use force, often arriving with weapons drawn and using force even when subjects are already compliant. Such tactics are unreasonable and turn encounters into unlawful arrests, the plaintiffs allege. When the complaint was filed last year, Frimpong issued a temporary restraining order limiting certain enforcement actions, but in August 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court granted the government’s request to stay that order while litigation proceeds, allowing the challenged practices to continue.

Trump administration officials have previously defended the stepped-up enforcement on a number of levels, saying the crackdown is necessary to maintain the rule of law, to capture violent criminals in the country illegally, and to reverse the flood of people who poured over the U.S. Mexico border during the Biden administration. However, Eva Bitran, the ACLU Foundation of Southern California’s immigrants’ rights director, has said the stops are “discriminatory in design and execution. ICE and Border Patrol’s racist agenda extends from DHS leadership down to rankand-file officers who deliberately target Latino community members -- often with great force -- because of their race. Our community suffers the consequences of this unconstitutional conduct.” The suit was brought by five individual Latino workers and three membership organizations -- the Los Angeles Worker Center Network, United Farm Workers, and the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights -- as well as Immigrant Defenders Law Center, a legal services provider. Frimpong will hold a hearing Thursday in downtown Los Angeles on a request from plaintiffs for a preliminary injunction to halt the Trump administration’s alleged campaign of warrantless arrests against people appearing “Latino, lowincome or working-class.” The judge recently held the DHS in contempt for allegedly slow-rolling an order to create digital copies of communications from personal cell phones used by immigration agents during operations.

California bill would scrutinize companies with employees on Medi-Cal By Jazmin Orozco Rodriguez for KFF Health News Broadcast version by Suzanne Potter for California News Service reporting for the KFF Health News-Public News Service Collaboration

A

s the Trump administration’s January deadline looms for states to enforce new Medicaid work requirements, some state lawmakers are turning the tables by pushing to publicly name the largest companies that have employees enrolled in the government program covering low-income and disabled people. California lawmakers seek to revive an expired law that would require the state to identify companies that employ 100 or more people and have employees enrolled in Medi-Cal, the state’s Medicaid program. Nevada has had a similar law in place since 2017, though a proposal for one in Oregon stalled when its legislative session ended in March. The California bill author, Democratic state Sen. Lola Smallwood-Cuevas, said she is deeply troubled by what is going to happen when work requirements kick in. According to the state, nearly 5 million out of more than 14 million residents on Medi-Cal will be subject to the rule. “We think this is a bill that’s about fairness,” Smallwood-Cuevas said. “It’s a basic principle that taxpayers deserve transparency about which large employers are shifting their healthcare costs onto the public.” Large employers that regularly top Nevada’s list, such as Walmart and Amazon, have said that the state included part-time and seasonal workers in their counts and that their full-time hourly employees make too much to qualify for Medicaid. Walmart spokesperson Katrina Proffitt said that the company offers affordable medical coverage to most employees, including eligible part-time workers, and that most of its plans include no-cost virtual care options. “Healthcare affordability and access to quality care remain real barriers for many Americans, and Walmart continues to be committed to being part of the solution,” Proffitt said. The push to name and shame companies reflects dueling narratives about the biggest abusers of the joint state-federal Medicaid program, which reached nearly $932 billion in government spending in 2024. The Trump administration, led by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz, has called out blue states for not

doing enough to fight insurer fraud and abuse. State Democratic leaders, meanwhile, are pushing back by calling attention to big employers that don’t offer affordable health benefits, which leaves taxpayers subsidizing healthcare costs for the low-wage workforce. Some states have considered financial penalties. Democratic New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill signed a bill in June to fine businesses that have at least 50 Medicaid-enrolled employees. Companies with 50 to 249 workers on Medicaid will pay $325 a year per person, and those with at least 500 will pay $725. Bills that would have penalized companies with workers enrolled in Medicaid failed in Washington state and Colorado this year. In Sacramento, California, Democrats want to figure out a way to make large businesses pay for their employees’ health coverage. State lawmakers struck a deal with Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is contemplating a presidential bid as he wraps up his final year in the governor’s office, to explore tax options. Any tax hike would be up to the new governor. States face losing billions of dollars under HR 1, the GOP tax-andspending law known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, notably through a provision that requires nondisabled Medicaid enrollees ages 19 to 64 in most states to prove they are working, volunteering, or going to school at

least 80 hours a month to keep their coverage. Yet federal work requirements are projected to increase the number of uninsured people nationwide by more than 5 million by 2034, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Nebraska and Montana have begun enforcing the rule. One health policy researcher said employer Medicaid reports highlight the lack of affordable healthcare options available to low-wage workers. More than half of adults enrolled in Medicaid who don’t have dependent children already meet the 80-hour-a-month requirement or face challenges that would likely qualify them for an exemption, according to KFF. “There’s a whole set of people who are working — they may not satisfy the work requirement provisions, they may not get the exemption that they’re qualified for, and they don’t have access to that employer-sponsored insurance either,” said Edwin Park, a research professor at the Center for Children and Families at Georgetown University. Employers Push Back While employer lists haven’t succeeded in bringing down Medicaid costs, supporters say measuring the burden can be the first step and help lawmakers make the case for further action. In Nevada, Amazon has employed more Medicaid enrollees than any other company since 2020, according to the state’s report published in January. For

state fiscal year 2025, Walmart, the Clark County School District, the state government, and Tesla rounded out the top five. Employers have argued that the reports are misleading because they have included part-time and seasonal employees. The state’s latest report includes only full-time employees, plus those who could not be confirmed as either full- or part-time employees. That came to 4,914 Amazon employees and 3,503 Walmart workers in Nevada on Medicaid in 2025. There are no penalties for companies on the list. Amazon said it pays its workers more than double the $7.25-an-hour federal minimum wage and noted that Medicaid eligibility is based on household income and size rather than an indi-

vidual’s wage. That means two employees who earn the same pay may have different eligibility depending on whether they have children or live with parents. “Pointing fingers at Amazon over Medicaid is a red herring,” said spokesperson Alisa Carroll. “What really needs to happen is a significant and large increase in the federal minimum wage — that would be a big boost for American families.” Nevada Medicaid spent nearly $950 million on healthcare for more than 133,000 full-time employees and more than 140,000 of their dependents. While the total amount spent dipped in fiscal year 2025, the average cost per member per year increased by nearly 17%. Yvanna Cancela, a former

Nevada lawmaker who sponsored the legislation on Medicaid work reports, said the annual reports force an important conversation “about whether or not this is the kind of economy we want and whether or not it is right or just that people who work full-time don’t make enough to have health insurance.” A Fraying Safety Net Health researchers say that uninsured people delay or skip using healthcare and that their children may end up losing coverage, too. One analysis found that more than 2 million fewer children were enrolled in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program this April than in January 2025. California is among the states with the steepest enrollment losses among children. The loss in healthcare coverage among residents will be compounded by the loss of public food assistance benefits, Smallwood-Cuevas said. Her bill is pending in the legislature. She compared Medi-Cal to a trampoline that has become a “very tattered kind of fishnet” overwhelmed by people falling into it. President Donald Trump’s spending-and-tax law pulls and rips at the safety net, she said. When people lose food assistance and health benefits, they must choose between paying for medicine and paying for rent, Smallwood-Cuevas said. “We’re going to see more people in their cars, more people on the street, and a lot more people in the emergency room,” she said. “That is dangerous for all of California.”

California senior group presses for action on long-term care By Suzanne Potter, Public News Service

A

nonprofit fighting for better access to healthcare is speaking out about affordability issues in long-term care funding. In-home care costs more than $60,000 a year, assisted living is about $54,000 and a private room in a nursing home is around $108,000, according to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Very lowincome people will rely on Medi-Cal. Bonnie Burns, a training and policy specialist for the nonprofit California Health Advocates, pointed out only wealthy people can afford newer hybrid policies that provide a cash benefit for

long-term care paired with an annuity or a life insurance policy, people with average incomes struggle. “Those people who can’t afford those and who are not poor are really stuck because there isn’t anything out there to finance that kind of care for those middleincome older people,” Burns explained. Census figures show by 2030, almost 73 million Americans in the baby boomer generation will reach retirement age. A few years ago, Washington state became the first in the nation to create a long-term care program financed by a tax on wages.

Burns noted the State of California Long-Term Care Task Force produced reports a few years back laying out five options to address the issue but lawmakers have not taken action. “Certainly, one or more of those options could be a viable way to fund care for the middle-income population as they age. It just needs some attention by the state legislature,” Burns urged. Burns added the massive cuts to Medicare made by Republicans in Congress last summer will translate into cuts in home-based care and nursing home care for low-income families in the Golden State.

Experts suggest ways to speed up ballot counting in California By Suzanne Potter, Public News Service

S

ometimes it takes days and even weeks to call an election in the Golden State, mostly because it takes time to count tens of millions of mail-in ballots. The California Voter Foundation just published a list of ways to speed up the process. Mail-in ballots arriving on or after Election Day tend to slow down the count considerably, according to the foundation. Kim Alexander, founder and president of the foundation, said voters can really help out by turning in ballots

earlier or voting in person. “We’re hoping voters will get into a new habit of turning in their ballot a little bit earlier,” Alexander advised. “We suggest the Saturday before the election, and if they can turn that ballot in in person, that’s even better.” The foundation supports two new bills, currently in appropriations committees, to make best practices available in all counties. One bill would allow people to bring a mail-in ballot to the polls on Election Day and have it tabulated immediately.

Another would make it easier to verify a signature through an online portal if the ballot is challenged because the signature on the envelope is not sufficiently like the one on a driver’s license. Alexander added in many recent elections, the delays in calling a winner have given oxygen to false claims of voter fraud. “That further undermines voter confidence,” Alexander explained. “Having our races called more quickly by the media shortens the amount of time available for bad actors to

share mis- and disinformation about our elections process.”

The foundation suggested shortening the time counties

have to “cure” a challenged ballot from 22 days to 14.

DOJ: Hundreds of SoCal noncitizen criminals moved from state to federal custody By City News Service

H

undreds of criminal noncitizens have been transferred from jails into federal custody in the Los Angeles area, the Inland Empire and elsewhere as part of Operation Guardian Angel, an effort federal officials said Wednesday is aimed at neutralizing California’s sanctuary state law. Operation Guardian Angel’s goal is to take custody of inmates who are in the country illegally and being held in county jails, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. SB 54, also known as the California Values Act, signed into law in 2017, limits state and local police cooperation with federal

immigration officers and restricts local resources from being used to remove undocumented people. Operation Guardian Angel works by securing federal arrest warrants for noncitizens recently arrested by local law enforcement. Once issued, local jails are legally required to honor the arrest warrants and must hand over the specified defendants in their custody to the federal government, according to the DOJ. The operation began in May 2025 and has resulted in 769 arrest warrants issued, and the actual transfer of 362 defendants -- 347 of whom are feder-

ally charged with illegally re-entering the United States following removal, or another federal offense, the DOJ said. Other federal charges include unlawful possession of a firearm by an alien, unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, using a firearm in drug trafficking or a crime of violence, and possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. “Broken California `sanctuary state’ policies endanger the public and cannot go unchallenged by the federal government,” First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said in a statement. “Operation Guardian

Angel is an answer to these misguided policies. Through this task force we are forcing California to do the thing it hates most: handing hundreds of criminal illegal aliens into federal custody to face justice and deportation.” Defendants taken into federal custody under the program include: -Jaime Rodríguez Ladesma, 70, of Long Beach, a noncitizen from Mexico who was convicted in Los Angeles Superior Court in October 2023 of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 and who was removed in December 2023. He subsequently illegally returned to the

United States and was convicted of being found in the U.S. following removal, federal officials said. He was removed to Mexico in March 2026; -- Ricardo López Jaramillo, 50, also known as “Sharky,” of Pasadena, a five-times-deported noncitizen from Mexico and gang member whose criminal history includes multiple felony robbery convictions in Los Angeles County, and a 2007 conviction in San Diego federal court of three counts of illegal entry, for which he was sentenced to three years in federal prison. In November 2025, he was sentenced to 10 months in federal prison

after pleading guilty to being in the U.S. following removal. He was removed to Mexico in June 2026; and -- Andrés Velásquez Ocampo, 37, of Santa Ana, a noncitizen from Mexico who was deported in January 2019 and was arrested in South Gate in May 2025 on drug charges. His criminal history includes convictions for carjacking and hit-and-run with property damage, according to the DOJ. He pleaded guilty in November 2025 to one count of being a person found in the U.S. following removal, was sentenced to three months in federal prison, and was removed to Mexico in December 2025.

All bidders, at the date, time, and place of the scheduled sale, will be required to show satisfactory support to the auctioneer of their ability to pay the amount they intend to bid, unless arrangements have been made with the trustee prior to the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

Street Address or other common designation of real property: 22695 HUNWUT DRIVE, WILDOMAR, CA 92595 A.P.N.: 376202005 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above.

The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $ 182,027.34. Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary of the Deed of Trust has executed and delivered to the undersigned a written request to commence foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property. Please be advised that the trustee may require entity or trust bidders at this trustee’s sale to provide information, documentation and/or certification of the vesting instructions and the data required to be reported pursuant to FinCEN regulations effective

for transfers of residential real property to covered transferees on or after March 1, 2026. The required information must be provided to the trustee before a trustee’s deed upon sale will be issued for covered transfers.

The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $ 380,356.29. Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property. Please be advised that the trustee may require entity or trust bidders at this trustee’s sale to provide information, documentation and/or certification of the vesting instructions and the data required to be reported pursuant to FinCEN regulations effective for transfers of residential real property to covered transferees on or after March 1, 2026.

Lineage reports 92% removal of rotting food waste after East LA warehouse fire By Joe Taglieri joet@civicnewsgroup.com

W

ork to clean up the fire-damaged Lineage Logistics warehouse in Boyle Heights continued Wednesday, a day after company officials announced roughly 92% of the bulk food waste has been removed from the facility. Lineage Logistics Inc.’s goal to complete bulk food waste removal from the coldstorage warehouse this week, according to a statement Monday when it announced approximately 90% of the rotting stored food has been removed after the cleanup effort’s July 7 start. “We continue to make meaningful progress against this massive cleanup effort every single day, and we will keep working until the job is done,” Lineage Chief

Operating Officer Jeff Rivera said in a statement Tuesday. “In addition to advancing the cleanup, we are focused on increasing pest and odor mitigants, including distributing more than 1,150 fly traps throughout the community.” Rivera said the company “remains committed to our outreach efforts to reach residents closest to the site, with 87% now contacted. Those we have not reached remain a priority and we will continue our follow-up efforts until all households have received support.” Lineage also announced Tuesday the distribution of an additional 800 fly traps to residents after the company previously distributed 350. Orkin, a pest control service

provider, is installing 576 traps throughout the neighborhood directly adjacent to the warehouse on telephone poles and in common areas, according to Lineage. The company had committed $80 million and $100 million to fund cleanup efforts. A South Coast Air Quality Management District hearing board on Thursday unanimously approved a modified abatement order that requires Lineage to implement more odorcontrol measures during the warehouse cleanup. Air quality regulators said that between July 12 and Aug. 5, the AQMD had received more than 4,200 odor complaints about the warehouse, and the agency

issued 25 notices of violations to Lineage. The fire erupted June 17 at the warehouse at 1400 S. Los Palos St. and burned for more than a week, sending thick smoke into the air that

prompted official warnings for nearby residents to stay indoors. Los Angeles County, city and California authorities issued local emergency declarations in the days that followed.

The cause is under investigation, but Lineage reported that the blaze may have started during rooftop maintenance of solar electricity equipment owned by Altus Power Inc.

Utility ‘bailout’ proposal so that the facts are clearly laid out for survivors and the public. People who lost everything deserve to understand exactly what is being proposed and how it could affect their ability to recover.” Before agreeing to any policy proposals, lawmakers should “put themselves in the shoes of a wildfire survivor,” Barger wrote. “Reforming California’s wildfire liability system is important, but don’t make survivors pay the price. As lawmakers negotiate, they must do what is right for the people who survived these wildfires.” The LA County Fire Department last week determined Southern California Edison equipment ignited the Eaton Fire, which claimed 19 lives and nearly 9,500 homes and other buildings with UCLA loss estimates totaling $24 billion to $45 billion. Also Tuesday, state Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara announced new

transparency and accountability reforms now in effect are modernizing the insurance rate review process and strengthening consumer protections. The reforms increase public access to information, establish clearer standards for intervenor participation and ensure stronger oversight of costs that can ultimately be paid by policyholders. An intervenor is a third party who joins a lawsuit or administrative action because they have an interest in the outcome. “These reforms put the power of transparency directly into consumers’ hands, where it belongs,” Lara said in a statement. “Every dollar matters for Californians who are struggling to find and afford insurance. They have a right to know who is participating in rate proceedings, what costs are being requested, and how those costs impact the premiums they ultimately pay.” Officials in Lara’s office

pointed to the recent State Farm General Inc. rate-hike request, in which the nonprofit Consumer Watchdog joined a three‑party settlement supporting a 17% rate increase for State Farm homeowners’ policyholders. If Consumer Watchdog seeks intervenor compensation under Proposition 103, the award could be paid by State Farm policyholders under existing law. Future rate increase requests from insurance companies and any future requests for compensation by intervenors submitted under the new regulation will be reviewed under the Insurance Department’s “enhanced transparency, accountability and qualification standards now in effect,” officials said. Chen noted that “home insurance companies won over $600 million in rate hikes from Commissioner Lara already this year, costs survivors are paying as we fight with these same insurance companies to pay what they owe,” she told HeySoCal.com.

“The public needs a seat at the table to push back on these massive increases but, with this rule, Commissioner Lara is trying to silence any voice of objection. Survivors will look to the next commissioner to reverse these rules and restore the public’s right to challenge excessive rates.”

Officials said the Insurance Department has sent letters to all currently certified intervenors informing them that parties seeking compensation funded by policyholders may be required to answer additional questions and provide supplemental documents that show compli-

ance with the new requirements, including disclosure of funding sources and possible conflicts of interest. From 2013 to 2026, intervenors received more than $14.4 million for their participation in rate-increase requests, according to Lara’s office.

Democratic chair of the Senate utilities committee and a candidate for insurance commissioner, said he doesn’t want to make that tradeoff if the package doesn’t include other benefits for consumers or taxpayers. Petrie-Norris said it could be worth it. “If I can save you $2 on your utility bill and your insurance bill goes up by $1, that seems like a smart

Wildfire bills already clashed in 2018 when utilities unsuccessfully backed a bill to loosen a unique California legal doctrine that holds power providers strictly liable for wildfire damages near their equipment even if they aren’t found responsible for the fire. “We’re a well-resourced industry, but not like (the utilities),” Rex Frazier, president of the Personal Insurance Federation of Califor-

nia, recalled. “Their lobbying spend was just crazy.” Denni Ritter, vice president for the American Property Casualty Insurance Association, said eliminating subrogation could impede the progress that has been made due to the regulations California adopted last year to address insurance availability problems. “We’re at this precarious time,” Ritter said. Because the state now allows insur-

ance companies to consider catastrophe modeling and reinsurance costs in pricing their premiums, some insurers have resumed writing new policies in California, and the number of policies in the last-resort FAIR Plan is growing at a slower rate, according to the state insurance department. But if they can’t recover the costs of wildfire claims, Frazier and Ritter said insurance companies will raise

premiums, which would affect homeowners even in areas with low fire risk. “We don’t understand how they’re not embarrassed to suggest that the answer to their problem is to shift their costs over to other people,” Frazier said. “Why should a homeowners insurance customer in a dense urban environment have to pay considerably more?” Sen.

Audit critical of Orange County COVID-19 contracts By Paul Anderson, City News Service

A

n ongoing audit of COVID-19-related contracts ordered by Orange County officials revealed more details of the corruption centered out of the office of former Supervisor Andrew Do, but the county’s board chairman and vice chair said it appears the lapses remain connected to the disgraced politician serving a federal prison term. Weaver and Tidwell in March released its first phase of the independent forensic audit, which was ordered in December 2024. The report released Wednesday is the second of a planned four. The auditors are reviewing about 2,500 contracts for about $4.3 billion from January 2019 through August 2024. The second phase reviewed 681 contracts for about $1.7 billion. “We’ve made some changes since then,” Orange County Board Chairman Doug Chaffee said. “I think we’ve learned something, and this is another learning experience and the recommendations they have made we’ve either done them or we’ll get to them in due course.” Chaffee said he intends to ask county staff to review the audit for any recommendations that can still be implemented to avoid conflicts of interest going forward. “We need to finish up this audit because every time we go through a tranch of contracts we find more contracts Andrew Do was connected to where they’re out of compliance,” Foley said. “They can’t prove what money was spent on, and so we need to finish the audit, the full scope, the full impact on our procurements, and then put in place all the protections that will prevent something like this happening in the future.” Foley added, “The good news is we don’t have any systematic, countywide problem with fraud and abuse. It’s really centered around one supervisor... Through all these hundreds of contracts we have audited we’re narrowing down the fraud and abuse to all

connect to one supervisor’s office.” Do was sentenced in June 2025 to five years in federal prison. Do admitted in his plea agreement that in exchange for more than $550,000 in bribes, he cast votes on the Board of Supervisors beginning in 2020 that directed more than $10 million in COVID-19 relief funds to the Viet America Society, where his daughter Rhiannon worked, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. From 2021 to 2023, Do funneled more than $10 million in county contracts to the society, prosecutors said. The money was part of a food- delivery program during the pandemic as well as a $1 million grant for a Vietnam War Memorial in Mile Square Park in Fountain Valley, prosecutors said. Rhiannon worked for the society and was paid $8,000 monthly between September 2021 and February 2024, for a total of $224,000, prosecutors said. Rhiannon Do was placed in a diversion program as part of the plea deal. In July 2023, $381,500 from the society was put in escrow so Rhiannon Do could buy a $1.035 million house in Tustin, prosecutors said. Do’s other daughter received $100,000 in October 2022, prosecutors said. Do used $14,849 of the money to pay property tax for two properties in Orange County that he owned with his wife, Orange County Superior Court Judge Cheri Pham, prosecutors said. Do used another $15,000 to pay off credit card debt, prosecutors said. Do’s friend Peter Pham, who ran the Viet America Society, was also indicted on single counts each of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to commit honest services wire fraud bribery and six counts each of wire fraud and concealment of money laundering. Pham’s whereabouts are unknown and federal prosecutors say he is considered a fugitive. Co-defendant Thanh Huong Nguyen of Santa Ana

was also charged with single counts each of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud and concealment of money laundering. Federal prosecutors consider Pham a fugitive. Much of the most recent audit focused on efforts from county officials to get contracts out quickly to address the pandemic emergency. Former Health Care Agency Dr. Clayton Chau, who helped auditors with their report, was criticized for his relationship with one vendor and dismissing concerns about Rhiannon Do’s conflict of interest with Warner Wellness, which was a subcontractor to the Orange County Asian and Pacific Islander Community Alliance Inc. Chau “strongly encouraged” the alliance to subcontract with Warner Wellness “as part of a mental health outreach initiative for underserved communities, even though (the alliance) had no prior relationship with the organization and (the alliance) raised concerns about its qualifications and organizational status.” Alliance officials “encountered ongoing compliance, staffing, and management issues with Warner Wellness, ultimately terminating the subcontract in April 2024 after multiple corrective action notices,” according to the audit. The auditors found that the alleged conflict of interest between the Dos and Warner Wellness were not adequately investigated. The auditors recommended increasing training among staff on how to report conflictof-interest concerns. The audit also found that a contract with Bridgecreek Realty Investment Corp. as part of an effort to help small businesses lacked documentation for about 54%, or $268,596, of its expenses. Part of the contract was to provide help with outdoor dining during the pandemic. The audit also focused on vaccination services provided by Mercy Pharmacy, criticizing the lack of “documentation supporting the process” of selecting the company. “Based on information

provided by HCA it is our understanding that Dr. Chau was friends with Mercy Pharmacy and wanted to use them because they do good work,” the audit reported. The audit also faulted Mercy for its documentation of services provided. Former Orange County CEO Frank Kim told City News Service that when he was approached about the rumors of Rhiannon Do’s conflict of interest he asked Andrew Do’s chief of staff about it and was told there was no conflict. When Kim saw a news article about Rhiannon Do working for Warner Wellness he confronted the chief of staff again, who told him, “I told you there was no conflict, I didn’t say she didn’t work there,’ “ Kim said. Kim said he documented the conversation and sent a memo to county counsel. Kim added he was told by county counsel at the time that state law did not prevent an adult child of an elected official from working for a contractor, but that law has been changed in light of

the Do corruption. Kim said a lot of the emergency contracts were necessary at the time. “There was a lot of pressure to get a lot of services out on the street. I don’t think people understand what it was like,” Kim said. “Hospitals were overcrowded and we were fearful of things we saw in the media... The primary focus was getting services out. It was a tough time and we did the best we could and I’m sure mistakes were made, but they were not intentional.” Kim pointed out nurses were in short supply and the hospitals were overrun with patients. As the vaccinations were being rolled out the death toll grew so high in the county there were air quality alerts because of the high volume of cremations as hospital and coroner officials scrambled for places to store the bodies of COVID-19 victims. It was also challenging to find vendors for services, Kim said. “I had a lot of faith in Clayton,” Kim said of Chau. “And I think he did a wonder-

ful job during the pandemic. He worked day and night. I believe he worked incredibly hard for the benefit of the community, and it’s frustrating to see the attacks on him.” One challenge faced by healthcare agency officials was documentation of insurance for some vaccination recipients, especially among those who were immigrants in the country without legal permission who feared handing over private information to government officials, Kim said. The priority was getting shots in arms to chase herd immunity, Kim said. Foley agreed, but said she has concerns about the audit’s findings regarding the 360 Clinic. The audit faulted the clinic for its documentation and may have “doublebilled” for 1,072 tests. “My main concern with vaccinations in 360 was double dipping,” Foley said. “Whether we were paying them and they were getting reimbursements from insurance. ... The taxpayers shouldn’t have had to pay twice.”
