Governor touts $100B recovery Plan includes stimulus checks, rent relief By Edward Booth Enterprise staff writer Gov. Gavin Newsom announced at a press conference Monday that California is sitting on a $75.7 billion projected budget surplus, a stark difference from the $54.3 billion projected shortfall in May last year. Accordingly, the governor proposed a $100 billion California Comeback Plan, utilizing another $26 billion in relief coming from the federal government. The first parts of this proposed plan include $600 stimulus checks to state households making up to $75,000, $2 billion in financial assistance with utility bills, and paying off unpaid back rent to landlords that tenants have accumulated during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“California’s not just coming back, California’s going to come roaring back,” Newsom said. The $600 tax rebates would go to California households who earn up to $75,000 in gross income per year, according to Newsom. An additional $500 would go to families with kids. Overall, Newsom said, about 80 percent of California tax filers will receive a stimulus payment. He said the plan is the largest economic recovery package in California history. The move is a proposed expansion of the state’s existing Golden State Stimulus program, authorized in February, which has focused on sending $600 payments to Californians who earn less than $30,000 a year. On Tuesday, Newsom announced the second part of the plan, which involves using $12 billion to take on the state’s homelessness crisis. The plan would pour $8.75 billion into buying up at least 46,000 new

Yolo still in orange tier as data worsens By Anne Ternus-Bellamy Enterprise staff writer Yolo County’s lengthy stay in the orange tier of the state’s color-coded COVID-19 blueprint will be extended yet again as the county’s metrics worsened this week. Both the adjusted case rate and the countywide test positivity rate increased during the week ending May 1. The adjusted case rate of 3.3 per 100,000 residents — up from 2.7 the week before — is the highest the county has seen since mid-March. Meanwhile, the test positivity rate increased from 0.6 percent to 0.7 percent. One spot of good news: the health equity quartile, which measures test positivity in the county’s most disadvantaged communities, declined from 2.5 percent to 2.4. County and UC Davis health officials have cited the spread of

The Food and Drug Administration on Monday expanded the emergency-use authorization for the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to everyone ages 12 and up. Previously the vaccine was limited to those ages 16 and over, while the Moderna and Johnson and Johnson vaccines remain limited to those 18 and up.

accounted for 75 percent of local cases. With case numbers remaining stubbornly high, the soonest the county can move to the least-restrictive yellow tier — which requires an adjusted case rate below 2 — is now May 26. Moving to yellow would allow businesses like gyms, movie theaters, museums and stadiums to operate at higher indoor capacity and allow others like bars that don’t serve meals to open for the first time in a very long time. Yolo County has been in the orange tier since March 24. The cities of Woodland and West Sacramento continue to account for the majority of new cases. Since April 9, Woodland has reported 195 new cases and West Sacramento 137, while Davis has reported 55 and

WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 2021

How vulnerable is Gov. Newsom? M y dear mother would always tell me that when someone sends you a letter, you should sit down right away and respond. It’s the right thing to do, she would insist. Oddly, in this day of texts and emails and Facebook and dozens of other forms of communication, I still occasionally get a real handwritten letter with a genuine U.S. Postage stamp and a return address and a postmark and every other wonderful thing that an honest-togoodness letter brings. So, since I know that mom is watching, here goes: Writes Jon at dcn.org: “The optics of the French Laundry will haunt him (Gavin Newsom) like Governor Moonbeam did Jerry Brown. Without a serious replacement, though, Gavin is safe.” Jon — The difference here, of course, is that there is no Arnold Schwarzenegger as a challenger. And Cox parading around with a silly bear just tells everyone he’s not a serious candidate. True enough, Jerry Brown couldn’t shake the “Moonbeam” label, but people kept voting for him anyway. Writes David in Tacoma: “I just finished reading your article about

the recall election, and although I agree that our odds of unseating Mr. Newsom are slim, I do not agree that it’s a waste of everyone’s time. The recall election will give many folks a chance to test the water of California politics. I’ve actually asked my friend to vote for me as a ‘write-in’ candidate.” David — First, as much as people might not believe it, no reporter, columnist, op-ed writer or author of a letter to the editor writes the headlines. The column itself did not say anything about wasting time, just that when all is said and done, Gavin Newsom will still be governor. One can conclude it’s a waste of time from that argument, but that was not what I wrote. Second, I’ll be happy to write in your name in exchange for lunch at the French

Laundry if you pick up the tab. Writes Rich on the Westside: “I agree the recall is a waste of time and energy. Yet, in the unlikely event that Newsom is recalled, his replacement could be thrown out a few days later and Eleni Kounalakis (current lieutenant governor) would become governor. Say a plurality of voters choose John Cox. A majority of the state Assembly could almost immediately impeach him and the state Senate could convict him of misconduct in office. Just what is misconduct is whatever the legislators say it is.” Rich — That is likely unlikely.

rites Mike from the North State: “I’ll probably never get the pronunciation of ‘Oeste” right, but having grown up in the Northern California town of Weed (most people can pronounce Weed correctly, even when high), I can help you out with Dunsmuir. Folks in Weed pronounced it ‘Duns-mewer’ like John Muir is pronounced ‘John Mewer.’ The ‘Duns-mirror’ pronunciation would reflect badly on anyone who used it.” Mike — Thanks for the lesson. Much appreciated. But how do folks

in Abner Weed’s hometown pronounce “Siskiyou”? Is it ‘sis-cue’ or ‘sisk-e-you”? Or something else entirely? Writes Steve at gmail.com: “When I need Garmin in Davis (I’m from Woodland), the nice lady tells me to turn right or left on ‘Chilis.’ “ Steve — When I’m in Woodland she tells me to go back to Davis. Writes Bertie on the iCloud: “As a longtime sportswriter for my favorite local paper, do you consider golf, bowling, sailing and archery need fixing?” Bertie — I only cover sports, but I’ll give these a try. Rolling a heavy ball down some shiny wood planks to knock over a bunch of milk cartons lined up identically every time doesn’t sound like a sport to me. Sailing, with a margarita in one hand and a phone in the other to call your buddies doesn’t sound much like a sport either. Archery is difficult, but so is pulling weeds. As for golf, well, the ball just sits there until you hit it and your opponent can do absolutely nothing about it. When you want to talk sports, give me a shout. — Reach Bob Dunning at bdunning@davisenterprise.net.

One injured, others displaced West Sacramento after UC Davis apartment fire shooting victim ID’d By Lauren Keene Special to The Enterprise UC Davis and state fire officials continue to investigate the cause of a late-night blaze that left one person hospitalized after being rescued from the burning apartment late Saturday night. Further details about the injured woman’s condition remained unavailable as of Monday morning due to patient privacy laws, although “hopefully the person who was rescued is going to be OK,” UCD Fire Chief Nathan Trauernicht said. Multiple crews from the UCD and city of Davis fire departments responded to the incident at the Solano Park Apartments, a family student housing complex located at 2100 Solano Park Circle, shortly before 11:30 p.m. Saturday. “We did not know until we arrived on scene that there was a rescue situation,” Trauernicht said. The first crew arrived to find a group of bystanders flagging them

down to inform them that a person was still inside the apartment. A firefighter, supervised by a captain, found the female victim unresponsive while performing a search of the apartment that “was heavily charged with smoke,” Trauernicht said. They immediately began CPR after pulling the woman outside. She was transported to the UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento with two firefighters on board to continue the lifesaving measures, Trauernicht said. Meanwhile, the remaining crews on the scene quickly contained the fire, which Trauernicht described as “moderate” in size, but still caused extensive heat and smoke damage. Residents of several neighboring apartment units were temporarily displaced as a result of the smoke extension. Both the UCD Fire Marshal and the State Fire Marshal’s office are investigating the fire’s cause.

Special to The Enterprise The victim of a fatal shooting last week in West Sacramento has been identified as Brenda Jimenez, 22. Jimenez, a West Sacramento resident, died of a gunshot she sustained to her right arm during a Thursday-morning incident that also involved a pair of vehicle crashes, Yolo County Chief Deputy Coroner Gina Moya said Monday. West Sacramento police reported Thursday that residents of the 600block of Cummins Way, in the city’s Broderick neighborhood, awoke at about 2 a.m. to sounds of

shots fired and a vehicle collision. “After further investigation, it was determined there were two active scenes, where two separate shootings had occurred involving two vehicles,” police said in a news release. “Both vehicles came to rest with one crashing into the garage of a house and the other into a parked car in the driveway.” Jimenez was pronounced dead at the scene, while another motorist was transported to an area hospital in critical condition. Police offered no updates regarding the incident as of Tuesday.

Guns seized in shooting investigation By Lauren Keene Enterprise staff writer An April shooting incident in Woodland led to the arrest of a local man on multiple weapons charges Thursday. The Woodland Police Department’s Gang Task Force, along with detectives, K-9 and patrol officers, served three search warrants in the 500 block of California Street and one search warrant in the 700 block of West Lincoln Avenue as a result of the April 25 shooting, which also occurred on California Street. “During the search warrants, a .25-caliber pistol, a .22-caliber handgun, two 9mm handguns, a shortbarreled 9mm rifle and three realistic-looking handgun replicas were located and collected for evidence,” police reported in a social media post. Pablo Luis Lopez, a 29-year-old Woodland resident, was booked into the Yolo County Jail for several alleged weapons violations, police said. The case remains under investigation.

VACCINATE: West Sac still lags From Page A1 anticipate … that as soon as Thursday, we can see appointments available and young people in this age group joining other Californians in getting vaccinated,” said Dr. Mark Ghaly, California’s secretary of health and human services. Yolo County is already preparing to administer the vaccine to adolescents. Two county-run clinics scheduled for this week — one in Woodland on Thursday and another in West Sacramento on Saturday — will be offering the Pfizer vaccine, according to county spokeswoman Jenny Tan, who said the vaccine would be available to those 12 and up. Dr. Janet Woodcock, acting commissioner of the FDA, called the move a significant step in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. “Today’s action allows for a younger population to be protected from COVID-19, bringing us closer to returning to a sense of normalcy and to ending the pandemic,” she said. “Parents and guardians can rest assured that the agency undertook a rigorous and thorough review of all available data, as we have with all of our COVID-19 vaccine emergency use authorizations.” Tan said the county would prefer that parents or guardians accompany children to county vaccine clinics, however, there is a vaccine authorization form for minors that parents or

guardians can fill out and send with their child to a vaccine clinic if they are unable to attend. Find the form at www. yolocounty.org/coronavirus -vaccine. The county has four public clinics scheduled this week, none of which require appointments, though they can be made at MyTurn.ca.gov: n Thursday, May 13, from 3 to 8 p.m. at Sutter Health Park, 400 Ballpark Drive in West Sacramento. This is a drive-thru clinic offering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. n Thursday, May 13, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Yolo County Health & Human Services Agency, 127 N Cottonwood St. in Woodland. This is a drive-thru clinic offering both the Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. n Saturday, May 15, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Arteaga’s Starlite Supermarket, 940 Sacramento Ave. in West Sacramento. This is a walkup clinic offering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. n Saturday, May 15, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Holy Cross Church, 1321 Anna St. in West Sacramento. This is a drive-thru clinic offering both the Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. The county also plans clinics this week at Woodland High School and Esparto Elementary School, Tan said, and “is already in talks with all the various school districts in our county to bring the vaccine to students at schools.” Davis students ages 12

and up are invited to a vaccine clinic next week at Harper Junior High School. That clinic will be held on Tuesday, from 2 to 6 p.m., in the Harper gym at 4000 Covell Blvd. A second-dose clinic will be held at the same time and place on June 8. No appointment is needed and family members who accompany students can receive the vaccine as well. MyTurn will allow appointments to be made for adolescents ages 12-15 beginning Thursday morning. For assistance in making an appointment, call 1-833-422-4255. ———— The county’s need to focus vaccine distribution on the city of West Sacramento remains evident. That city continues to lag behind the rest of the county in COVID-19 vaccinations, with 38.8 percent of all residents having received at least one dose. On the other end of the spectrum is the city of Davis, where 63.1 percent of all residents had received at least one vaccine dose as of May 3. In the middle are Woodland, where 49.9 percent of residents have received one vaccine dose, and Winters, where 46.3 percent of residents have. Countywide, 108,389 residents have received a vaccine dose. That amounts to just under half of all county residents. — Reach Anne TernusBellamy at aternus@ davisenterprise.net.

Obituary Henry ‘Hank’ Schainck Wyman 1941 — 2021

Henry “Hank” Schainck Wyman was born in 1941 in The Dalles, Ore. He grew up in Corvallis and Eugene, Ore. He was a busy child with church, Boy Scouts, and school activities. He got his first job when he was 10 years old, mowing a frat house lawn. He was never without a job after that. He met his high school sweetheart, Christie Bransford, in 1958 at a Boy Scout-Girl Scout party when they were 15 and 16. He earned his Eagle Scout award in 1958; graduated from Eugene High School in 1959; joined the Air Force, and was sent to Korea, then Japan. He served as editor of several air base newspapers while in the Air Force. Hank and Christie were married in Japan and their first child was born there. They returned to Eugene, where he raced through the University of Oregon School of Journalism in three years, using the GI

Bill to help pay for his education. He worked as a reporter for the Eugene Register Guard while in college. Their second child was born in Eugene. After graduation, he was hired by the Soil Conservation Service (now Natural Resources Conservation Service) as a public information specialist in Portland, Ore. Their third child was born in Portland. In 1968, he was reassigned to Hawaii, where they lived for seven years. He also served in Washington, D.C., and in California, stationed in Davis. In 1977, he became California state information officer, and in 2003, he retired as California’s deputy state conservationist after 40 years of service. After he retired, he joined the Friends of the Davis Public Library. He served in various roles in the group, including president and first manager of Logos Book Store after it

After recovering from COVID, his health began to deteriorate rapidly and he was diagnosed with advanced cancer. He died Saturday, May 1, 2021, at home after days spent with family holding and communicating with him. Hank loved to travel. His last big trip in 2019 was to France and Spain. Over the years, he traveled to many Pacific islands, Indonesia, Japan, China, Hong Kong, Korea, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Czech Republic, The Netherlands, France, Greece, Switzerland, Austria, England, Sweden, Finland, every

state in the U.S. and more. He was intelligent, compassionate, kind, generous, funny and loyal — a remarkable human being in all ways. He will be remembered for being able to see the “big picture” for everyone who worked with or for him. He helped people recognize their potential and achieve their dreams. He is survived by his wife, children Bryan, Michael and Catherine; seven grandchildren: Hanah, William, Elise, Ivy, Juliet, Kyle and Monica; and daughters-in-law Michelle and Loran.

ORANGE: No progress yet From Page A1 Winters just six. Unincorporated areas of the county have accounted for 64 new cases in the last month. Notably, of the 27 new cases the county reported on Monday, which included results from Saturday and Sunday, none were from Davis. The high percentage of Davis residents who have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine likely plays a role in the city’s improving numbers. Yolo is now one of 38 counties in the orange tier. Nine counties, representing nearly a third of the state’s population, are in the yellow tier and 11 counties — including Sacramento and Solano — remain in the morerestrictive red tier.

n a recent night, after a very long day, Bob drove me to 7-Eleven so I could buy a can of beer. I feel fortunate to live in a town with so many options for shopping. When I need fancy cheese or chocolate chip cookies that I want to pass off as my own, I go to Nugget. If I’m looking for refried beans, 10 cans for $10, Safeway’s the place. For my kids’ favorite mini-chicken tacos, peanut-butter cups or chiliand-lime flavored rolled tortilla chips, there’s nowhere like Trader Joe’s. But if it’s 1 a.m. and we need Tylenol, 7-Eleven is the place to go. If we run out of ice in the middle of our backyard barbecue, it’s 7-Eleven that saves the day. If it’s a hot summer afternoon and we need a sweet treat, there’s nothing like a cherry Slurpee, and if it’s been a tough day, you’re out of milk and you need a beer and you don’t want to run into anyone you know, 7-Eleven is the only place to go. I don’t mean to brag, but we live just around the corner from Davis’ one and only 7-Eleven. In fact, our street is a happy and well-traveled byway connecting East Davis residents with a store that offers the best close-in parking, shelves packed beyond capacity with everything from diapers to dish soap to Drumsticks. You can pop in at 6 a.m. in your pajamas to get cream for your coffee and nobody cares. If our home’s proximity to this little East Davis convenience store gold mine hasn’t increased our property value, all I can say is there’s something wrong with the system. Anyway, back to that recent

night and my quest for a beer. On this particular night, 7-Eleven was my market of choice. We pulled into the lot and parked approximately 8 feet from the front door, noting the prime parking directly in front of the double glass doors was blocked with a large orange cone. Bob and I both thought they must be saving that spot for someone special and it wasn’t us. (Turned out to be a beer delivery truck that arrived just as we were leaving). As I exited the car, a young man arrived on his bike, parked in the spot with the orange cone and shouted to nobody in particular, “Look! I finally got reserved parking.” I held open the door for him and announced that he was today’s 7-Eleven VIP. I followed the newly minted VIP into the store, found my way to the beverage cooler and pulled a tall, cold can of beer from the dozens of choices. I got in the short line and paid for it with my credit card. As I turned to leave, I noticed the vast display of shiny lottery tickets under the glass counter. One of them seemed to be calling out to me, hinting at untold riches. I asked the clerk for a $5 Scratcher from under the glass. He handed me the ticket which I immediately

Honestly, it’s not all for me. handed to my new friend, telling him, “Congratulations on your VIP status. I hope your luck continues.” As the surprised and smiling VIP guy walks out the door, hops on his bike and rides off into the night, the clerk says to me, “You can’t use a credit card to buy a lottery ticket.” Not being a frequent player of the California Lottery, I could be forgiven for not knowing this rule. But it is unfortunate because I don’t have any cash or a debit card and the lottery ticket is long gone.

As I stand there, holding up the line and trying to figure out what to do, a kind voice from behind me says, “I’ll pay for the lottery ticket.” A man steps forward and puts a $5 bill on the counter. The clerk snaps it up, puts it in his register and I’m in the clear. I’m touched by this gesture and overwhelmed by his kindness. I’m especially moved because I think this may be the last five dollars in this man’s pocket. I say to him, “You saved me. Thank you so much. Whatever

you’re buying, let me get it. As long as I can buy it with a credit card.” He looks at the clerk and requests a pack of Marlboros. As the clerk reaches to grab them, the man in line asks me, “Is that OK with you?” I reply, “Of course.” And that is why, on that magical night, I purchased beer, a lottery ticket and cigarettes at the 7-Eleven. — Shelley Dunning is a Davis resident and a mom of four.

God, vaccines, reason and Martin Luther E very day brewers must manage the balance between the brewer’s art, on one hand, and brewing science and technology on the other. Brewers with formal training handle this dichotomy quite easily, whereas others, without a solid technical base, may struggle because they have difficulty identifying a myth or separating an idea or an opinion from a fact. A keynoter at a Craft Brewers Conference (and a former student of mine) some years ago said that these days, there are far too many people brewing beer who should not be doing it. Like Francis Urquhart, I could not possibly comment. The problem is, of course, distinguishing fact from fiction, truth from falsehood. Years ago, I taught a course on campus in the then newly invented General Education series; such courses were either science-based courses for students of arts majors or arts-based courses for science majors. My course was about food components and food processing. Since we all have to eat, I thought the science and

technology that brings foods and beverages to the table would make a good vehicle for exploring how science works. It was a large-enrollment class and I worked hard to make the science easily accessible but real, interesting and relevant. As part of the introduction to the theme of the course, I did a riff on the concept of measurements and facts and why they are important; the difference between a fact, interpretation of fact, predictions based on fact, and an opinion or a guess; I addressed the difference between correlation and causation, offered some thoughts on precision and accuracy and on the idea of variation and statistical significance. That is, the ordinary critical facilities of ordinary people. I was astonished at the reaction to these simple and non-controversial ideas among a small but voluble group of these intelligent young people. We had quite a chat that taught me a lot. Some were personally affronted, and indignantly dismissive of simple

ideas that hinted of conflict with their own ways of knowing, presumptions, preferences and predilections; these attitudes sometimes arose from religious interpretations or perceived moral imperatives or from their own unique feelings and experiences and singular observations which were taken as incontrovertible evidence of a general truth. These young people had a distaste for science, but not distrust, I thought, although I’m not sure one is far from the other. And that was long before the internet, social media and Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, among other sources of misinformation and fake news, became available to obfuscate and confuse and perhaps create the addled mind. What brings this to mind now is a piece in the

New York Times that explored those regions of the USA where resistance to the COVID vaccine is strongest. This turns out to be in the more conservative rural areas of our wide country and among white citizens who commonly espouse the deep Christian faith of Protestant Evangelicals. The Times reporter heard all the reasons for vaccine hesitancy or vaccine rejection that I was expecting to hear. Some reasons are plausible, some more plausible than others, which range to the loony and demonstrably wrong.

uch of this was based on a distaste for or distrust of science in general, or distrust of government, plus an adherence to the idea of the natural way to “herd immunity” (a good idea that unfortunately probably requires 15,000,000 US hospitalizations and 5,000,000 deaths, but workable apart from that) and pointed references to the falling number of cases and deaths we are now experiencing. All, so far, was what I expected to read and, frankly, I could have told you so.

Based on that account I thought comments in this column on the importance of rational evaluation of data, illustrated by clever references to beer and brewing, would make a good topic. Then came a surprise. Religion entered the rural picture. Maybe I should not have been surprised. The Times reporter found that, in this population, vaccination is a deeply divisive notion that has split friends and families and communities and church congregations. Those who have decided to be vaccinated often keep it secret to avoid offending others, for whom, I suppose, vaccination might represent some form of betrayal of faith or evidence of insufficient faith or of being on the wrong side of the faith/science divide. After all, if your faith teaches you that all things come of God and that He has a plan for you individually that includes when He will call you Home it is difficult to see why COVID is not part of God’s plan. Hence vaccines may be seen as the anti-Christ or at least an unwanted intrusion into faith of

science or government. “We all have to go sometime” shrugged one anti-vaccer. I do not know how to understand this level of fatalism and faith, as I have found God’s work goes better if I do my part. I found myself at sixes and sevens about this. Discombobulated. Although it gave me some insight into why an anti-vaccer might be an anti-vaccer, I wondered what might be done, if anything, to help these folks protect themselves and their communities. If God brought us COVID did He not also give us the vaccine to defeat it? Then in cleaning out some old books I ran across the following quotation from the revered monk and theologian Martin Luther, who famously set the ball rolling on the Protestant revolution in 1517. Quoth he: “Reason should be destroyed in all Christians.” Hmmm! That confirmed my faith in Reason. — Reach Michael Lewis at lewiswales@me.com. Comment on this column at www.davisenterprise. com.

REYNOSO: UCD marks passing of former prof From Page A1 received the Hispanic National Bar Association’s Lincoln-Juarez Award as well as the UC Davis Medal, the highest honor awarded by the university. “The passing of Cruz Reynoso is a deeply felt loss for the UC Davis community,” said UC Davis Chancellor Gary S. May. “He was not only a towering figure in civil rights law, but a humble and dedicated professor who connected strongly with our students and faculty. His dedication to our campus will be remembered and his impact will endure.” The son of migrant farmworkers, Reynoso spent five decades in public service, fighting for the rights of workers and immigrants, before becoming a California Supreme Court justice in 1982. “I became a lawyer because I saw so many injustices,” Reynoso said in a 2019 profile published in UC Davis Law’s Counselor alumni magazine. He was sensitive to injustices from an early age. While still a child, he protested against school segregation and called attention to the U.S. Postal Service’s failure to deliver mail to the rural Latino neighborhood in Orange County where his family lived. He attended Fullerton Community College and then Pomona College before leaving California to serve in the Army. After serving for two years, Reynoso enrolled at the UC Berkeley School of Law. In 1958, he was the only Latino in his graduating class. Early in his career, Reynoso served as staff secretary for Gov. Edmund G. “Pat” Brown and associate general counsel of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. In 1968, during the civil rights and farm labor movements, Reynoso became the first Latino

director of California Rural Legal Assistance and got laws passed that protected the health and safety of farmworkers, including banning the hazardous insecticide DDT. In 1976, Gov. Jerry Brown appointed Reynoso to the 3rd Appellate District of the Court of Appeals. Reynoso, his first wife Jeannene and their four children moved to a ranch in Sacramento County. In 1981, Brown appointed Reynoso to the state Supreme Court. Reynoso served on the court until 1986, when he and two other liberal justices were criticized by conservatives for being soft on crime and were removed by a successful recall effort. In the 1990s, Reynoso taught at the UCLA School of Law and served as vice chairman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. When he started teaching at UC Davis in 2001, Reynoso became the first Boochever and Bird Chair for the Study and Teaching of Freedom and Equality. He retired in 2006, but stayed involved with the university. After the infamous pepper spray incident in 2011, when a UC Davis campus police officer pepper sprayed students who were peacefully protesting on the Quad, then-UC President Mark Yudof selected Reynoso to lead a task force investigating the incident. The task force’s conclusion that the use of force was unjustified led to numerous reforms in campus policing at UC Davis. “Cruz Reynoso was a national treasure and civil rights icon,” said Kevin R. Johnson, Dean of the UC Davis Law School. “He dedicated his life to equality and justice for all. UC Davis School of Law is proud that he ended his professional career as part of our community, and was an inspiration to all.”

Aguiar-Curry joins push for internet investment Special to The Enterprise SACRAMENTO — Assemblywoman Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, D-Winters, and state Sen. Lena A. Gonzalez, D-Long Beach, led a group of 17 members of the California Legislature in calling upon Gov. Gavin Newsom and legislative leadership to support a major investment in broadband infrastructure and service for Californians without reliable, affordable internet. The effort comes as Newsom considers adjustments to his January budget proposal for the fiscal year 2021-22 in the annual “May Revision.” The letter calls for a $500 million allocation in funds from the American Rescue Plan to support the deployment of broadband municipal fiber networks by local governments. The group calls for a significant $3 billion investment to further target and support broadband infrastructure deployment by local agencies, nonprofits and internet providers who apply under the California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) program. The group is composed of Aguiar-Curry, Gonzalez, Sens. Anna Caballero (D-Salinas), and Robert Hertzberg (D-Van Nuys), and Assemblymembers Autumn Burke (D-Inglewood), Sabrina Cervantes (D-Riverside), Cristina Garcia (D-Bell Gardens), Eduardo Garcia (D-Coachella), Sharon Quirk-Silva (D-Fullerton), Eloise Gomez Reyes (D-Grand Terrace), Luz Rivas (D-Arleta), Robert Rivas

(D-Hollister), Miguel Santiago (D-Los Angeles), Mark Stone (D-Scotts Valley), Carlos Villapudua (D-Stockton), Buffy Wicks (D-Oakland), and Jim Wood (D-Santa Rosa). The Newsom administration’s Public Utilities Commission has estimated the necessary investment to bring Californians up to federal standards established by the Federal Communications Commission at almost $6.8 billion. This estimate comes before the FCC considers updating the standard of 25 mbs upload/25 mbs download to greater speeds to keep up with improving computer technology to support such services as online education and job training, telehealth, small-business access to the digital economy, and public access to e-commerce and a growing array of government services online. Higher standards will require even greater public investment. “Even before the pandemic, which shone a glaring light on Californians’ lack of reliable, affordable internet services, we knew access to the internet is an essential requirement for participating in the promise of today’s online world,” Aguiar-Curry said. “The California of today cannot lead our people into the future with the technology of the past. In partnership with Senator Gonzalez and our many colleagues in the legislature, we can provide that future for every home and business in our state. The time to strike is now.”

Davis High ‘calm space’ comforts students By Mattias RowenBale HUB staff In an attempt to alleviate the stress of going back to in-person school, the Davis High counseling and nursing departments have created a new wellness space for students, called the Calm Space. Located in the back of the DHS office, off of the staff parking lot on 14th Street, the Calm Space is intended to serve as a comfortable and private place for students to regulate and reset. “The vision is to help with mental health,” said Katherine Parker, the counselor who has been the driving force behind creating the Calm Space. “So we really are hoping to encourage more self-awareness of what people need, and not being afraid to ask for that space.” The Calm Space opened in April this year with the rest of campus, and Parker plans for it to exist long past the current school year. According to Parker, the space has been a long time coming. “It’s always kind of been in the back of my mind and I think other people’s minds,” Parker said. “When we started thinking about what students are going to need when we come back to campus after a pandemic, ... I said ‘We need a room, the calm room, a wellness room.’ ” Students are encouraged to drop by anytime to check it out or to hang out for up to about 25 minutes. The Calm Space’s hours are currently 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on school days, but there are hopes to make it available before school and even for clubs and counseling groups as well. Upon entering the quiet and softly lit room, students are given an intake form and instructed to sign in. On the form, students can share how they’re feeling and what brought them to the space. Students can then make themselves comfortable on the variety of beanbags and other comfortable seating areas around the room. They can charge their devices, listen to music, talk to the counselor or nurse present, or just hang out. “I would describe it as a nice escape from the stress of class,” said one student, who has chosen to remain anonymous. This student recommends the space to others who may be feeling overwhelmed in class, and said that overall they had a “pretty positive experience” in the space.

Modified in-person learning poses new obstacles By Shira Kalish HUB staff With modified in-person learning in full swing, teachers are faced with the challenge of engaging in-person students and virtual students in their classes simultaneously. Many feel like it is impossible to give enough attention to either group. “Both in person and remote students are losing out,” social studies teacher Holly Istas said. “I don’t feel like I am able to be as engaging with in-person students as I normally am because I am constantly checking in with my remote students. And when I am ‘talking’ with a remote student via Zoom chat, I feel like I am neglecting or ignoring my in-person students.” English teacher Spencer Elliott also feels that his attention is divided. In any school year, his goal is to get his students to interact with each other and with himself, because he believes that listening, processing and responding facilitates learning more effectively than taking notes on a lecture. However, this is difficult to achieve in distance learning, since most of his online students turn their cameras off and opt to share ideas via chat or not at all. When all of his students were virtual learners, he was able to dedicate his full attention to combating these challenges. After asking a discussion question, he would wait as long as it took for someone to answer, and relied more on the chat feature for class discussions. Now that some students have returned to the classroom, this is more difficult to do. “The live students proactively raise their hands and share with me and share with each other … Because of this, the conversation moves along and it has become easier for distance learners to remain anonymous,” Elliott said. “I’ll continue to experiment with

Online and in-person students attend their AP Government class. new ways to engage both populations, (but) the reality is, these two groups require two completely different methods of instruction.” Spanish teacher Janice Candelario tries to focus on the virtual students as much as she can during class, but finds that they often do not respond when she calls on them. “I feel like the students in class are much more engaged and I feel like I know them better,” Candelario said. To combat this, Candelario ends her live classes five minutes early to give the virtual students their own time to ask questions, which they frequently do. Istas tries to build time during each class for the at-home students to message her privately. She is always willing to stay after class if any of them have questions or need extra help. Each day, she chooses a few virtual students to

check in through Zoom private chat. Teachers’ efforts to engage both groups of students have paid off. Many distance learners are satisfied with their classes. “So far my teachers have done a good job dividing their time between in-person and online. (They) make sure to say hi to the ones on the computer and we still are able to participate like usual,” said junior Alexandra Herrera, who chose to stay in distance learning. Junior Sophia Rokop enjoys the flexible schedule that online classes provide. “Teachers definitely pay more attention to the students in person but they have also found ways to incorporate distance learners,” Rokop said. “I feel like the quality of my classes hasn’t gone down.” Junior Sarah Yeung, who is a

distance learner, said that her teachers do a good job giving equal amounts of attention to both groups of students. “If anything, the quality of my classes has improved because (students) are now more likely to speak up. When people in person ask questions, I find it very helpful,” Yeung said. Junior Nithmi Jayasundara started out the quarter in distance learning, but switched to in person after a few days. “I heard people in the classroom talking in the background of one meeting and it sounded like school was going back to normal,” Jayasundara said. “Teachers seemed to be more involved with their in-person students, and I wanted to form similar connections with them.”

DSIS observes influx in enrollment over past year of online school By Mia Croff

involved in the class and connect with your teacher. And because of that, people are more likely to have their cameras on.”

HUB staff Davis School for Independent Study, a public school that serves K-12 students in the Davis Joint Unified School District, has experienced a 75 percent increase in enrollment in the 2020-21 school year compared to enrollment rates of a typical school year. DSIS principal Robert Kinder attributes this increase to students’ desire for less screen time and more one-on-one interactions with their teachers: two experiences made possible by the school’s unique educational format. “DSIS serves as an alternative approach to education,” Kinder said. “We meet the needs of students looking for a more flexibility, smaller school environment and a more personalized way of schooling than most are used to.” The school operates more like a “small college,” according to Kinder, with classes only being held a few days a week, giving students the freedom and time to complete work when they are available. Many of the courses also allow for differentiation, meaning the curriculum of certain courses can be tailored to students’ particular interests. When the pandemic froze the activity of other schools in DJUSD, DSIS was relatively unfazed, already familiar with implementing online learning into its education plans.

Kinder and Curro both agree that DSIS requires self-discipline, strong organizational and time management skills, and the ability to self-advocate. Due to the experience and support offered at DSIS, more students are temporarily enrolling in the school while COVID is still hindering the traditional school experience. Sophomore Leila Ordonez made the decision to attend DSIS instead of Davis High this school year because she believed the school would handle online learning better. Shaney Whitbeck/courtesy photo

2020 graduate Nevaeh Brace poses for a photo with DSIS principal Robert Kinder after last year’s ceremony. “(DSIS) has fewer adaptations to make,” Kinder said. “We already (had) been using a system similar to Canvas for many years, so we were able to shift our program as it would typically function, to an online format.” DSIS senior Pietra Curro had a smooth transition into full online learning at DSIS compared to her peers at DHS. “I have friends who go to DHS and I saw how hard it was for everyone else to (adjust to an online format),” Curro said. “For

me, it was barely a change at all. All my classes were online already, so ...

Ordonez plans to transfer to DHS once it returns to normal so she can go to school with her friends, but is grateful for her experience at DSIS. “I’m glad I made the choice (to go to DSIS).

New DAM coach, Mallery, does the work of 2

raig Mallery, the new head coach of Davis Aquatic Masters, is pleased to dive into a program that is so healthy, well-coached and prospering. But he knows what it is to build a swimming program from scratch: He did that for 16 years at Seattle University, taking his college teams from zero to national championships. Starting at the lowest national swimming division, Mallery’s Seattle U swimmers rose through four divisions. On the way, the Seattle swimmers placed ninth in Division II. Mallery, 58, is glad to be back home. He grew up in Woodland

and swam for both Woodland and Davis high schools. As DAM coach, he’s putting in the 50-plus hours on deck which now-retired coaches Stu and Mary Kahn did together. He has 11 coach assistants but is looking for a principal assistant coach. Those helping coach workouts include: Peter Blumberg, Mike Brown, Tom Brown, Vivian Crow, Lisa Fisher, Jennifer Phalen, Aaron Setran, Tovah Skiles, Kate Stephenson, Alan Rowland, Kerry Halsted and Lillybelle Deer.

Koenig scores a pair as Devil soccer smokes Eagles By Will Wyman Enterprise staff writer The only thing hotter than the disgusting Davis heat on Tuesday afternoon were the Blue Devils, as they hammered the visiting Pleasant Grove Eagles 6-0, in high school boys soccer action at Brown Stadium. The dominant display was an end-to-end triumph, featuring a variety of Davis High scorers and comprehensive defensive work from the home team. Zach Agnew opened the scoring for the locals, whacking home a cross from Danny Jebri early in the contest. Eight minutes later, Agnew repaid Jebri’s favor, setting up the forward for the second goal of the match. Davis capped off the eventful opening frame with a finish from Sam Koenig off of a Liam Swenson cross. In the second half, centerback Walsh Klineberg darted into the box to poke the ball past the Eagles’ keeper after a corner kick. Then, Angel Salgado was the fifth Devil to get his name on the scoresheet, cutting the ball onto his right foot before driving it into the bottom corner on the near post. The final action of the day came from Koenig, completing his brace with a composed finish after his filthy footwork sent the Eagles’ keeper

dancing the wrong way. Klineberg was the defensive anchor for the Blue Devils, maintaining control of the backline throughout the contest. He was paired alongside Kai Peris for the majority of the game, before Swenson stepped in to see out the last 15 minutes of the match. The stout DHS backline stood in front of a rotation of keepers, with Declan Fee, Neil Smith and Miles Wingo combining for the clean sheet. Despite the temperature reaching the mid-90s, the Devils stayed cool, relying on their strong team chemistry and occasional stoppages to catch their breath. “The water breaks halfway between halves really help,” laughed Klineberg after. “But it takes a lot of unity as a team, keeping everybody on their toes, making sure no one switches off. It is really important to have the team communication to have everyone paying attention and motivated.” Davis also looked to its bench for support against both the Eagles and the sweltering Northern California air. Klineberg and his teammates were mindful of the importance of making a difference while on the field, even if it was only for a short stint. “We knew they were a good team

So when you’re on the field, everyone is going 100% at all times.” The mentality of hard work and effort permeates throughout the team. Swenson, a versatile senior, echoed Klineberg’s assessment: “I’ll play wherever the team needs me,” Swenson told The Enterprise. “If I gotta go in at

center back towards the end of the game, I’ll do my part, I’ll try my hardest. “If I’m playing up against a big man, I’ll act big,” he added. “You always just have to put your whole heart and body on the line, and I’m just glad we won today.” Tuesday marked the fourth straight victory for Davis early in its Delta League campaign, contributing to a record of 4-0-1. In those games, the Blue Devils have outscored their opponents 17-3. They also registered three shutouts. “I think the way we played today was fantastic,” beamed the senior captain. “And, obviously, the result is nice to get as well. In terms of confidence, we’re at an all time high right now.” “I was really impressed with how we all played together. I think this gives us a shot to continue to be undefeated for the rest of the season.” The Blue Devils will continue their season on Thursday at 4 p.m. to play the reverse fixture of Tuesday’s match at Pleasant Grove. The following week, they will face Franklin twice. — Reach Enterprise staff writer Will Wyman at wwyman@ davisenterprise.net. Follow him via Twitter at @wyman_why.

DHS girls volleyball causes big trouble for River City Blue Devil roundup

Enterprise staff The Davis High girls volleyball team made easy work of visiting River City on Tuesday, with senior Emma Thompson discharging a team-high 12 kills as the Lady Devils dispatched the Raiders in straight sets (25-4, 25-9, 25-9). The victory came on the heels of a 3-0 DHS loss to Pleasant Grove last week, in which the Devils dropped two see-saw sets by three-points or less. “PG is one of the hardest teams to beat in our league,” Thompson explained. “So the fact that it was so close (last week) gave us a lot of confidence in this match.” “Two of our sophomores, Lena Sundin, who plays outside hitter, and Nicole Risch, our setter, have been playing fantastic,” Thompson added. Emily Wells added another five kills in the win, while Caroline Brennan led the locals with seven digs. Veronika Roe added five. DHS will be back on the home hardwood Wednesday to face Sheldon at 5 p.m.

Wrestling Competing at the Women’s National Wrestling Championships in Irving, Texas, last Friday, DHS freshman Avangeline Turner finished seventh in the nation in the Cadet age group (16-under) and won silver in the 15-under field. Turner wrestled against Wisconsin’s Faith Bartoszek, Georgia’s Greta Garbuzovas, Ohio’s Isabell Carrington and Amarisa Manuel of Michigan at 145 pounds en route to her podium finish.

Girls water polo Flooding the Vintage goal, DHS nearly slapped in 20 Monday in an 18-3 rout of the Crushers. Lindsay Taylor’s five goals led all scorers, while Kathleen Sheridan and Malaya Wright (four assists) each had hat tricks. Camilla Taylor and Kenzie Walker added doubles in the scoring department and Iz Meraz tallied a gamehigh four steals. Sara Kos, Alyssa Waterson (three assists) and Claire Miller had single scores. In goal, Maddie Walker made nine stops and Kappa Martin

Cordone’s five goals led all scorers in that win, with Fuchslin netting four, Doten scoring three and Brown, Joshua Davis, Fineberg, Pfeifer and Christian Davis responsible for the balance. Vochatzer had four steals and Joshua Davis tallied as many assists as the Devils improved to 6-1 overall.

Davis High seniors Nika Edson (9) and Emily Wells (6) thwart a River City hitting attempt on Tuesday. Wells had a team-high three blocks. thwarted eight Vintage shots. The Lady Devils drowned Woodcreek on Tueday, 18-1. Scorers in that blowout included: Kenzie Walker (four), Lindsay Taylor (three), Meraz (three), Lapuz (two), Wright (two), Waterson, Miller, Sheridan and Gia Hertl.

Boys water polo Ryan Pfeifer tallied a hat trick from the field and added a fourth goal on a penalty try Monday as the Blue Crew earned a 17-13 win against visiting Vintage at Arroyo Pool. Trey Doten added another four goals and Joshua Davis scored three, while his younger brother, Christian Davis, passed out a team-high three assists. Alex Cordone, Jonny Vochatzer, Dennis Fineberg, Brennan Fuchslin, Ryan Mayeur and JT Doughty also bent the twine, while Juan Ramirez and Ben Simon split time at keeper, combining for nine saves. Cordone, the Davis brothers and Ben Rayls each added a pair of steals in the win. DHS returned to the water Tuesday in a 17-6 road smackdown of Woodcreek.

Logan Green and Josh Galindo’s rounds of 36 on Tuesday were crucial as the Blue Devils beat Jesuit in a threestroke decision, 188-191, at Ancil Hoffman Golf Course. Andre Zhang fired off a 37 in the nine-hole outing, Braeden Schimmel finished at 39 and Ryan Firpo carded a 40. It marked Davis’ first victory over Jesuit in conference play in five years, dating back to a center meet win in which eventual Delta League Player of the Year, Griffin Long, shot 72 at Haggin Oaks. “One more match to take the title,” Devil head coach Zeb Becker said afterwards. DHS hosts Pleasant Grove next Monday at Wildhorse Golf Club.

Baseball Blue Devil baseball rallied but fell short against Jesuit on the road Tuesday, losing 8-4 in the Delta League series opener. Luke Carrell took the tough-luck loss, tossing four innings and striking out four while allowing seven earned runs. Carter Stoltz entered in relief in the bottom of the sixth and struck out the Marauders’ cleanup hitter to strand the bases loaded. Davis (14-6 overall, 4-6 league) fell behind 7-1, but bounced back with three runs in the fifth thanks to RBI singles from Rockwell Lybbert and Brian Chin. Gizaw Baker singled twice in the loss and Mikey Finerty, Saul Israel, and Koen Carston each collected base hits. Jesuit hung on to move to 10-8, 7-6. Davis will look to bounce back in the series when they host their rival at 4 p.m. on Thursday.

Softball It came down to the last play, but the Lady Devils pulled the short stick Tuesday in a 11-10 setback against Pleasant Grove. Halle Gabriel’s RBI single opened the DHS scoring in the second inning. Madison Rutherford, Isabelle Lester and Carolina Morales each batted in a pair of runs, while Ella Shorts crossed home plate twice along with Morales. Davis had 14 hits in the outing, with Naomi Kalanetra finishing 3-for-4 and Zoe West 2-for-4.

Girls Soccer The DHS girls beat Pleasant Grove on the road Tuesday in dominant fashion, 6-1. The Devil offense was boosted by five different goal scorers and a tight defense. In the first half, Davis put three past the Eagles’ keeper. Summer Baron opened the scoring, putting away a chance created by Bella Artofer. Becca Blum set up the second goal for Una Keller as the Devils gained momentum. Blum finished off the huge offensive half for Davis with a solo goal. In the second half, the Devils equaled their first half output: Keller assisted Baron for her second goal of the day, then Baron spread the love to Georgia Postema to further the Davis advantage. Olivia Johnson capped off the offensive onslaught, scoring off of an assist from Sammy Foster.

Girls lacrosse Exacting revenge on Granite Bay, after a loss to the Grizzlies last week, the Lady Devils escaped with a 10-9 victory Monday on the road. Tory Agnew and Amara Higgins’ hat tricks, combined with Colette Quaas’ pair of goals and single scores via Gracie Hartsough and Devon Morris did the trick as Davis snapped a two-match skid. Agnew and Colorado Mesa commit Sydney Skinner combined for nine Devil draw controls, while defender Jessie Finkelor added a key interception and takeaway in the win. DHS returned to the turf Tuesday in a 17-9 shellacking of Rio Americano. Higgins and Quaas had hat tricks in the win.

Davis: a role model on wheels

Time for state to focus on S dual enrollment

By Lisa Montanaro Special to The Enterprise

By Joe Radding Special to CalMatters

ow is a critical time for California policymakers to expand high-school student access to dual-enrollment community college classes, as persistent high-school achievement gaps have grown larger due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the reliance on inequitable distance learning practices. Dual enrollment is an educational practice that enables a high school student to enroll in and complete credit-bearing college courses. Completing these college courses may provide a student with both college and high-school credits. Dualenrollment college courses may be offered on a college campus, in a high-school classroom or via an online format. For more than a decade, expanding dual enrollment has been of great interest to California state policymakers. Research consistently shows that dual enrollment cuts costs for students, exposes students to collegelevel coursework and rigor, and gives students greater confidence to enter and complete college. Students enrolled in dual-enrollment courses are more likely to graduate from high school and continue on to earn a bachelor’s degree. Dual enrollment is widely considered to be a powerful academic success strategy to support underrepresented, low-income and first-generation college-aspiring students. Unfortunately, access to dual-enrollment opportunities is not equal, as 82% of California high schools have no students enrolled in community college classes, and Latinx and African American students are substantially underrepresented in community college course-taking compared to their share of high-school students. For first-generation college-aspiring students in particular, the lack of critical resources such as highschool guidance counselors creates challenges not typically experienced by students with family members who attend or have previously attended college. State data collections document the slow progress in the number of California high-school students enrolling in credit-bearing community college classes in the past several years. This trend is noteworthy but not surprising, as the state has undertaken several initiatives in the past decade that have incentivized dual-enrollment expansion, including the California Career Pathways Trust, the California College and Career Access Pathways Partnerships and the dual-enrollment metric in the College and Career Indicator of the California School Dashboard.

hile progress in addressing inequities is always welcome, in California it is simply too little, too late. It is time for much bolder systemic changes to be considered if California is going to seriously address high-school achievement gaps and prepare the vast majority of high-school graduates for postsecondary — educational and career — success. In the absence of expanded and sustained efforts to address these inequities, California will likely continue to experience postsecondary education opportunity and achievement gaps for decades to come. To accelerate the expansion of dual-enrollment opportunities for California high-school students, all community college and public school districts need to commit to dual enrollment as a key equity strategy on a long-term and sustained basis. At the state level, California policymakers need to: n Raise awareness about the need to significantly grow the beneficial practice of dual enrollment, such as by legislatively directing the State Superintendent of Public Instruction and the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges to jointly develop and implement a strategic outreach plan focused on promoting and supporting the expansion of highschool student dual-enrollment opportunities; n Enact legislation to remove arbitrary policy barriers, such as enrollment caps, eligibility requirements, high-school principal advance approval and credentialing-related issues that can frustrate student access to dual enrollment; n Strengthen incentives that create institutional demand for dual enrollment, such as by legislatively directing the state Board of Education to assign more weight to the dual-enrollment metric in California’s College and Career Indicator and School Accountability Dashboard; and n Allocate a substantial amount of competitive funding to expand the implementation of highschool reform models that feature dual enrollment, such as middle-college high schools, early-college high schools, and grade 9-through-14 career-pathway programs. — Joe Radding is the founder of and principal consultant for JR & Associates, an educational and leadership consulting firm, jrrad58@gmail.com. He wrote this for CalMatters, a public interest journalism venture committed to explaining how California’s Capitol works and why it matters.

ometimes it’s the very people who don’t intend to be an inspiration who inspire us the most. Such is the case with Robb Davis, who served as the Mayor of Davis from 2016 to 2018 (yes, his last name matches the town he served as a public official). He made the decision to go car-free in 2003 and it fundamentally changed his family’s life. It also served as an inspiration to others to convert to more cycling and less driving. Maria Contreras Tebbutt, director of The Bike Campaign, credits Robb as the reason she and her family decided to pare down their car use. “He’s been a ‘roll’ model to me and responsible for our conversion to one less car. He takes personal carbon footprint very seriously.” Robb’s initial decision to become car-free was prompted by a host of reasons: live a more simplified life, reduce the impact on the planet, decrease automobile use and expense and reduce consumption of resources. It seemed like a utilitarian choice at first, but eventually springboarded into biking to maintain the focus on a healthy lifestyle and change the dynamic of his family. Robb and his wife have two kids, who at the time they decided to go car-free were 14 and 11 years old. Robb studied how often they used the car, and whether leaving it in the driveway was a hindrance to any of their activities. Within four months, they sold the car to a friend, and officially became a car-free family. Then he started noticing benefits he didn’t initially anticipate. Not only did they not miss the car, but they also enjoyed spending more time at home. Being car-free also translated to buying less overall. Robb realized they’d gotten into the habit of buying

more than necessary. Robb started to view his former car as enabling choices that no longer seemed appealing. Eventually, being car-free become second nature. They walked, biked, and used public transportation — including Amtrak, which has a station in Davis — to engage in all their activities. They even moved to a new house in Davis twice, transporting all their belongings, including furniture, by bike. They enlisted the help of friends and had a lot of fun in the process. Robb and his family were car-free for 16 years from 2003 to 2019. Then in 2019, Robb and his wife realized the kids were out of the house and they were empty nesters. They longed to see the distant spots of the beautiful state of California they couldn’t easily reach via public transportation

Voter suppression If you know ALEC, you know terrorism can become law. The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) wrote “show me your papers,” stand your ground, voter suppression and the most recent hit-a-protestor-with-yourcar impunity law. ALEC has been circumventing democracy by providing pay-to-play private access to lawmakers for its corporate and conservative members for 46 years. ALEC designs laws to imprison civil society activism and policy. ALEC wants escalation in 2022. Among the over 90 ALEC voter suppression laws are several that would define your protesting friends and family as “rioters.” As rioters, we will have few rights from police or bystander violence and we can be easily charged with felonies. For ALEC, it’s just the cost of doing colonial racist business. Nothing about killing POC citizens and their allies has changed its course. ALEC funders include Exxon, the American Bail Coalition and unassuming companies like State Farm Insurance. ALEC members include the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Are the Davis Chamber and Downtown Davis Chamber members of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce? If so — please end that association — or the city of Davis should reconsider contributing taxpayer-funded

and bikes. They leased a car with the intention of putting it to good use for a few years. But then the pandemic happened, forcing them to pivot in 2020 like so many others.

hey put off their travels and instead Robb started using the car for a significant volunteer project with Yolo Food Bank as the coronavirus response coordinator. He helped to activate a countywide weekly doorstep food-delivery program for senior citizens and other homebound residents within days of the announcement of California’s stay-athome order. It felt satisfying to repurpose the car for a good cause rather than watch it sit in the driveway unused after all the years of not even owning one.

Bike Swap a success A big thank you to all who helped at the César Chávez Elementary eighth annual Citywide Bike Swap event on Sunday, April 25. It was a win-win situation for those who consigned bikes, donated bikes or bought bikes at the Swap. It was our biggest year yet with more than 400 bikes consigned or donated, the majority of which sold — all for great prices! The Bike Swap is a true community service with local business support from several starting with Winston from Davis Bikes & Skateboards and Maria from The Bike Campaign helping out all day adjusting bikes and answering questions, Davis Cyclery consigning bike lights and bike locks for us to sell (which the school received

years of public service for the city of Davis first on the City Council, then as vice mayor and eventually mayor, Robb worked at UC Davis for the Global Affairs Global Learning Hub as the director of intercultural programs, a position he held until recently. He walked to work as he only lives a mile from campus. He still bikes as a means of transportation even with the leased car at the ready. His son, now 30 years old, happily enjoys life without a driver’s license, and his daughter just got one when she moved to Pennsylvania with her own family, which includes three children. Robb is excited to start his next professional venture as impact and innovation officer at the Yolo Food Bank in Woodland and is considering biking to work for his daily commute of 14 miles one way. After the lease is up on his current car and the pandemic is more under control, Robb may revisit the idea of going car-free again. And if he does, he will undoubtedly put the same kind of careful thought into the decision that he did when he first came up with the idea: a decision that had a positive ripple effect on him, his family, his friends, and his community.

We continued to expand the Bike Swap again this year to make it a fundraiser for other Davis schools so Bike Swap volunteer support came from parents and students of César Chávez, DaVinci, Emerson, Korematsu, Harper, Davis High, Willett and Pioneer schools. We also had mechanical support from the Davis Composite Mountain Biking Team and organizational support from Golden Valley 4H Club who both made the CCE Bike Swap their April community-service project.

And, of course, The Davis Enterprise for helping us get the word out on this citywide, annual event. All profits from this annual event support César Chávez Elementary Spanish Immersion parents and teachers as well as participating school PTA programs.
