How Prop. 2 Can Impact You Kenya Staley @kenyastaley
A
recent study completed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, revealed that California shares 22% of the homeless population, the largest percentage of homeless people in the United States. As of 2017, almost one third of that population suffers from mental illness. Proposition 63, also known as the Mental Health Services Act, was passed in 2004 which imposed an additional 1% tax on people with an annual income of 1 million or more. The state provided mental health services to those in need with the revenue collected. Over a decade later, state legislatures are now proposing to use a portion of the revenue from the Mental Health Services Act to fund the newest measure that will combat the correlation between mental illness and homelessness. Proposition 2authorizes the state to use up to $140 billion in bonds to ensure permanent hous-

ing for mentally ill homeless through the state’s program, No Place Like Home. Governor Jerry Brown enacted the program in 2016, dedicating $2 billion to the development of permanent housing for people in need of mental health services. Proposition 2 is endorsed by several organizations, including the Chan Zuckerberg Foundation and Mental Health America of California. The National Alliance on Mental Illness is currently the only organization to oppose the proposition stating that California should not take away funds for mental illness treatments to support housing. According to California’s Department of Housing and Community Development, the program’s sole purpose is to “acquire, design, construct, rehabilitate, or preserve permanent supportive housing for persons who are experiencing homelessness, chronic homelessness or who are at risk of chronic homelessness, and who are in need
of mental health services”. If you’re a student suffering from mental illness and housing insecurity the authorization of this bill can affect you. However, Proposition 2 will not affect taxpayers because it is an amendment of Proposition 63.

Prop. 6 P
roposition 6 would mandate that voter approval be required for the California State Constitution to approve new or increased taxes regarding gasoline, vehicle license fees and transportation improvement fees. Prop. 6 would also repeal any fuel and vehicle taxes, as well as transportation improvement feespassed after Jan 1, 2017. This would mainly affect Senate Bill 1, The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. Those in support of Proposition 6 argue that itwould eliminate SB 1’s12-cent taxincrease ongas, and the20-centtaxincreaseon diesel. It would save drivers an added $50 on vehicle registration fees.Additionally, itdecrees a statewide vote for any future changesto California fuel taxes and registration fees.
Cesar Saldana` @cesarsaldana777
However, those opposed to Proposition 6 argue that roughly 5.4 billion in annual funding for transportation improvements to California highways and roads would disappear. This would halt more than 6,500 road safety and public roadstransportationprojects currently underway. Voter approval onProposition 6would affect not only Chaffey students but college students everywhere who do not reside on campus. As many college students commute to classes, un-repaired roads or highways may block a student’s route. Public transportation would be impacted as well, as it would lose approximately 36 million dollars in funding.

O
n Oct. 21, a memo that stated the definition of gender in the UnitedStates Government was leaked to the press. According to The New York Times the memo stated that: “The Trump administration is considering defining gender as a biological, immutable condition determined by genitalia at birth.” The memo was sent by the Department of Health and Human Services to the “Big Four” agencies, which include the Department of Education, Justice, DHHS, and Labor. The four agencies were asked to adopt the administration’s definition of gender in order to create uniformity throughout the government. This policy will affect the transgender and gender non-conforming (gnc) communities at Chaffey and in the United States. The office of Adrienne Grayson is covered in family photos, Lavender Coalition flyers, DREAMers flyers, and a Transgender flag standing in a mug. Director of Special Populations and Equity Programs at Chaffey College, Adrienne Grayson,has dedicated her career to helping underserved and underrepresented students at Chaffey. Grayson has been working on many projects that will help
make Chaffey College a safer institution for the trans and gnc communities. Helping trans people and the LGBTQ+ community as a whole, is very personal to Grayson because someone she loves and is very close to is transgender. “I think this goes against what the medical community has established for several years now. I thought this was pretty much set in stoned” stated Grayson when asked what she thought about the memo. Grayson stated the responsibility that she and her team have in order to protect trans and gnc individuals at Chaffey. “It is our responsibility to make sure that students are able to learn in a comfortable environment that allows for their full engagement in classes activities in recourses and services.[...]That also includes us helping students be acknowledged in a way that they feel is best aligned with their identity.” “We want to help create an environment where all students feel welcome, including and especially our LGBTQIA+ students,” Grayson said on behalf of the Special Populations and Equity Programs, “Every single person on this campus should be joining the challenge to make sure that all students feel like they have a
place of love and support here at Chaffey College.” Founder and former president of the Lavender Coalition, Jennifer Cardenas, said that “if schools don’t want any lawsuits from any of us students, they should continue to uphold Title IX.” Cardenas also says that it should not be an option for universities to opt out of the current Title IX policy. “Don’t stop. We’ve never had full rights so we have to continue the battle to win the war that has been created by the current administration” said Cardenas to the current president of the Lavender Coalition. “One things I liked talking to my club about was the struggles [..] in LGBT history and to continue those movements.” Cardenas had one thing to say to the trans and gnc communities: “I will make sure you are not erased.” Cardenas is currently attending Columbia University in Manhattan and is planning on attending law school in order to become a public servant in California.

Misconceptions of Abuse
Raylene Camerano & Eric Montes @ericmontes101
@RayleneCamerano
I
n Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the Domestic Violence Panel hosted a Misconception of Abuse presentation at the Chaffey Rancho campus on Wednesday, Oct. 24. Dr. Sandra Gray opened the session with her domestic violence experience that involved her mother and father. She did not recall most childhood memories before the age of six, but had fragments of her father abusing her mother. Dr. Gray is a representative of Eagle’s Wings. Eagle’s Wings is an organization that helps women who are trapped in domestic violence move from victimization to empowerment and freedom. Their services have provided the victims for food, clothing and shelters. “Twenty to thirty women have been sheltered in every county. These victims are hiding from their abuser, who are afraid of going back,” Dr. Gray explains. “Domestic violence is the pattern of increasingly frequent and increasing severe physical, sexual, verbal, and psychological attacks, who then uses it against their intimate partners to obtain power and control. Once domestic violence starts, it will keep rolling and it never stops.” As she was closing her explanation about domestic violence, she described how the brain is affected by it. There are three major response types to violence: fight, flight and freeze. Most survivors experience the freeze response while in a
dangerous situation, and this reaction can affect memories and cognitive flexibility. Gray claims every nine seconds, someone in the country is assaulted. 4,774,000 women are physically abused by their partners each year and three women are killed each day in intimate partner violence. There are multiple reasons that women do not leave their current relationships, fear of financial insecurity after they leave. Gray further explains that survivors of domestic violence usually do not have anywhere to live if they decide to leave. This leaves them in a tough position that endangers survivors of falling into debt that their partner poured on them, or risk living in poverty. Proposition 1 is currently on the ballot to assist domestic violence survivors with their circumstances. Proposition 1 will increase bonds for existing affordable housing programs to $4 billion. The proposition will work to assist groups such as veterans, homeless families, low-income families, people with disabilities and domestic violence victims. The money will be funded by general obligation bonds. The $4 billion bonds are broken up into various sections of housing programs. $1.8 billion will be funded towards affordable multifamily housing projects, $1 billion in veteran house loans, $450 million in infrastructure programs, $450 million in home-
owner programs, and $300 million in farmworker housing projects. Factoring in housing costs, California has the highest poverty levels in the nation. The proposition offers additional money to help fund housing projects and give more individuals and families opportunities to loans and housing options. If yes vote on proposition 1 allows the State of California to issue $4 billion for housing projects for low income residents and veterans. Those who vote no would oppose the clearance of this $4 billion general obligation bonds. California Choices CAL matters

Voting and Elections Panel Paris Barraza @parisbarraza
O
n Oct. 24, a voting and elections panel took place on the Rancho Cucamonga Chaffey Campus in Wargin Hall. The panel intended to further educate students on the purpose of voting as the 2018 Midterm Election approaches. The Philosophy Club, Muslim Students Association and the Spanish Department sponsored the panel, which included Philosophy Professor Dr. Ryan Falcioni, Political Science Professor Pak Tang, Political Science Professor Kevin Cameron and Spanish Professor Tamari Jenkins as the host and mediator. Student and SI Philosophy Leader Ashley Margraff was an attendee at the event. “I’d like to gain more information for midterm elections,” Margraff responded when asked what she hoped to learn from the event. The event opened with Jenkins introducing the panel and showing a video from Learn Liberty titled “Why are Voters so Uninformed?”. She explained the costs of being an informed voter and the lack of incentives for voters. Afterwards, each professor had the opportunity to address a topic in regards to voting. Tang stated voters matter because politicians take care of those who vote.
“Medicare, social security...if we go into an economic recession, politicians won’t touch that,”
10 / November 1, 2018
Tang added, as that is the demographic of older citizens who are active at the polls. Education funding, college grants and policies regarding student loans are the first to receive budget cuts. He cites an article from The Washington Post titled “Young people say they plan on voting in November-but they usually don’t” which details that the youth demographic, 18-34 year-olds, are interested in voting, yet do not actually vote. Tang provided information on how to register to vote as well. Falcioni discussed the history of voting and how it became our right. He then argued the most compelling reason to vote is civic virtue and the greater good. Falcioni listed other options of political activism for students to consider, such as walking in marches or writing letters to congressmen. After, Cameron provided insight on the history of the Democratic and Republican Party, before explaining how their agendas have changed and what they represent now. Jenkins opened up the panel to answer any student questions. Students addressed their discontent with politicians and the voting process. One student noted how politicians’ charisma were difficult to see past, and another student addressed whether or not it was worthwhile to refrain from voting as a form of protest. Social media, the electoral college and swing states were other topics discussed during the Q&A. Before the event came to a close professors cited online resources for
students to be better informed at the polls such as Ballotpedia.org and sbcountyelections.com. Student Xander Bachman, in response to what he learned from the event, stated: “Voting is the most basic thing you should do. Your right is to actually go out there and protest for what you believe in.” After asking Jenkins what she wanted students of Chaffey Community College to know, she shared:
“There is so much apprehension [for voting] and it is completely understandable, but at the same time you guys are our future. So to be completely absent from the process is hurting yourselves in the long run.”

n Oct. 27, a gunman opened fire at a Pittsburgh synagogue where Shabbat service were taking place, killing at least 11 people and injuring six, including four police officers. On Saturday Oct. 27, at around 9:45 a.m., the Pittsburgh Police Department received calls about an active shooter inside of Tree of Life Congressional in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood. It is considered to be a historic Jewish enclave and the center for the Jewish community in Pittsburgh. The gunman, Robert D. Bowers, was dressed in tactical gear and armed with an assault rifle and three handguns. He walked into the synagogue and yelled, “All Jews must die.” According to authorities, Bowers exchanged gunfire with officers before retreating back inside and barricading himself in a room on the third floor, where he surrendered. At a press conference on Saturday, Oct. 27, Pittsburgh Public Safety Director Wendel Hissrich told reporters there were no children involved, only adults from ages 54 to 97. “It’s a very horrific crime scene. One of the worst that I’ve seen, and I’ve seen some plane crashes,” said Hissrich. On the day of the shooting, FBI special agent Bob Jones said the investigation led to social media accounts that appeared to belong to Bower. These accounts contained posts with anti-Semitic messages and hate speech. Bowers also took to Gab, a social media site dedicated to free speech for alt-right activists and white nationalists whose views are unwelcome or banned on social media platforms such as Twitter or Facebook. There he posted a sign-off to followers:
“HIAS likes bring invaders in that kill our people. I can’t sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics. I’m going in.” President Trump addressed reports at Joint Base Andrews about the shooting, and remarked if there were an armed guard inside the temple the shooter might have been stopped. He suggested “the death penalty would help deter such attacks.” He later said at the Future Farmers of America Convention in Indianapolis, “This was an anti-Semitic act. You wouldn’t think this would be possible in this day and age.” In a statement, Attorney General Jeff Sessions called the shooting “reprehensible and utterly repugnant.” “The Justice Department will file hate crimes and other criminal charges against the defendant, including charges that could lead to the death penalty.” Sessions said. On Saturday Oct. 27, federal officials charged Bowers with 29 criminal counts, which included obstructing the free exercise of religious belief and using a firearm to commit murder. He will face state charges including 11 counts of criminal homicide, six counts of aggravated assault and 13 courts of ethnic intimidation. On Sunday Oct. 28, the Allegheny County medical examiner’s office released the victims’ names:
· Jerry Rabinowitz, 66 of Edgewood Borough ·
Cecil Rosenthal, 59
·
David Rosenthal, 54
·
Bernice Simon, 84
·
Sylvan Simon, 86
·
Daniel Stein, 71 of Squirrel Hill
·
Melvin Wax, 88 of Squirrel Hill
· Irving Younger, 69 of Mount Washington Chief medical examiner Karl William said Cecil Rosenthal and David Rosenthal were both brothers from Squirrel Hill. Sylvan Simon and Bernice Simon were a married couple from Wilkinsburg. On Monday Oct. 29, Bowers appeared in federal court in a wheelchair and handcuffs, where he was ordered held without bail for a preliminary hearing on Nov. 1, when prosecutors will outline their case against him.

The California Treasurer Candidates: What to Paris Barraza Know Before You Vote
T
@parisbarraza
he California State Treasurer acts as the chief investment officer, banker and financier of the state government. The California State Treasurer’s Office states the office finances different public work programs as well as disperses money per approval of the California State Controller’s office. The elected official sits on various boards and commissions, including the boards of pension funds for individuals employed by the state. One term is four years, and candidates may run for re-election for a second term. The candidates for the 2018 California State Treasurer include Democrat Fiona Ma and Republican Greg Conlon. Both candidates will be new to the position, as current California State Treasurer John Chiang announced his bid for governor. In 2017, The Los Angeles Times reported that current State Treasurer Chiang introduced legislation intended to lower costs and aid students with large debt. As of 2014, it was found that 68.4% of Chaffey’s student population received financial assistance. According to The Los Angeles Times, Fiona Ma currently sits on the California State Board of Equalization, which administers and oversees various tax programs such as property tax and sales tax. With a background in accounting, Ma has served on multiple committees including the Higher Education Committee of the California General Assembly from 2009 to 2010. From 2006 to 2012, she represented District 12 on the California State Assembly as well as serving as California State Assembly Speaker Pro Tempore.
Ma’s campaign has called for investments in affordable healthcare, housing, and education. Endorsers of Ma include California State Treasurer John Chiang and California Democratic Party. On her official campaign website, Ma has a large list of different endorsers such as Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California and California School Employees Association. For students enrolled or in pursuit of higher education, Ma supported the state-administered 529 college savings plan known as ScholarShare. The California Department of Human Resources describes the program as an opportunity for families to use after-tax contributions to save for college, and earnings will be tax-deferred and disbursed. Greg Conlon also has a background in accounting, and became a partner in an international accounting firm. He has served on the California Public Utilities Commission, which regulates California’s utility infrastructure and services like electric gas, water and rail transit. Conlon has also served on the California Transportation Commission, which is responsible for distributing funds for highway construction or transportation improvements. He ran for a seat in the U.S. Senate in 2012 and in 2016. The California Republican Party and former U.S. Secretary of Treasury George P. Shultz endorsed Conlon, as stated in The California Voter Guide. Some of Conlon’s primary focuses, if elected State Treasurer, includes pension reform to address the $300 billion unfunded pension liabilities and to eliminate
the $800 minimum state income tax to help encourage start-up companies. On Conlon’s official campaign website, he addresses the underfunding of the University of California and California State University university systems, noting that K-12 and community colleges received increased funding from the state through Prop 98. In an effort to secure sufficient funding, UC and CSU schools admit outof-state students who pay higher tuition fees than California residents. Conlon intends to increase funding so more California residents are accepted into these schools. Voting for the 2018 Midterm Elections is Nov. 6th, and polls close at 8 p.m. Sources: California State Treasurer’s Office The Los Angeles Times on Fiona Ma and The Los Angeles Times on Student Debt California Department of Human Resources California Voter Guide Chaffey College Fact Book

Soyac’s first package arrived at George Soros’ estate in Bedford, New York on the morning of Oct. 22. Soros is a wealthy investor who has been a longtime supporter of the Democratic party.

nila envelopes with bubble wrap lining and on a computer printed label listed representative, Debbie Wasserman Schultz as the return to sender. Schultz being is the former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee. In a press conference on Friday Oct. 26, Christopher Wray, the current FBI Director, described the devices as
“consisting of roughly six inches of PVC pipe, a small clock, a battery, wiring and what is known energetic material.”
Director Wray went on to stress the fact they were not “hoax devices” as rumored. According to Wray, each of the pipe bombs contained material that could potentially cause an explosion upon reaction. Soyac is being charged with five federal crimes, including interstate transportation of an explosive, illegal mailing of an explosive and threats against a former president. Soyac is set to be prosecuted in Manhattan New York after he appears before a judge in Florida on Monday October 29th and could face up to fifty eight years in prison.
Racial Disparity
Racial Disparity Emma Donnelly @emmakdonnelly14
D
uring the Fontana Mayoral Town Hall, residents questioned the mayoral candidates about the issue of racial disparity in the Fontana Police Department. One attendee stated the Fontana Police Department allegedly fired people of color or creating situations to make them leave the force, and asked what could be done to change this. Lorena Corona was the first candidate to answer. She commented on her desire to revoke the code of silence in the police department and replace it with transparency.
“In order to start the change, we need accountability and transparency,” said Corona. Hafsa Sharafat approached the podium. “We need to ensure that what is happening in the police department, the residents can see it. Whether it’s the settlements, the trials or whatever the daily processes are,” said Sharafat. Sharafat demanded accountability for officers who commit crimes and disappear. The last candidate, Mylinda Carrillo, mentioned the police department should interact more with the community. One solution is to have the police department involved in high schools. She concluded it is important to know who officers interact with to maintain accountability. “By knowing [the officers] and interacting with them we know what their job is,” Carrillo said.
When asking the Fontana Police Department of racial disparity in the force, Sergeant Goltara commented they are “definitely a diverse police department.” He later stated the police department hires from within the community and they have numerous Hispanic, African American, Asian American and Middle Eastern officers. Goltara explained as the demographic changes in city of Fontana so do the demographics of the police department, but race is never used as a deciding factor. One of the last questions at the town hall addressed an image of an African American man’s deceased body, found behind a Kentucky Fried Chicken in 1994. It was claimed Fontana police officers placed a piece of chicken in the deceased man’s hand and the photograph circulated around the police department for years as a joke. The attendee who asked the question intended the question for Acquanetta Warren, as it was claimed Warren found out about the image in 2008, yet nothing was seen to have been done. Since Warren did not attend the town hall, the attendee then asked how each candidate would “retain good officers who got fired for nothing” as compared to officers who exhibit negative behavior? All candidates expressed how disheartening this was, and how changes must be implemented to ensure all officers are held accountable for their actions. Sharafat’s solution was to hold all leaders accountable, and to document officers who exhibited the type of behavior of those who participated in the picture of the deceased man’s body.
After Corona commented on what a shame this incident was, she expressed her hope the lawsuit filed by David Moore and Andrew Anderson against the City of Fontana, the case concerning the image taken in 1994, would result in “regulations that will prevent this from happening in the future.” Carrillo was the last to give her solution. Carrillo stated that the “mayor should have done something to intervene,” and how Carrillo herself treasures “all life”. “We need to help one another, love one another and show compassion for one another,” said Carillo. Due to the lawsuit still pending litigation, Fontana Police Sergeant Goltara could not comment on any specific incident, however, he stated:
“If something like that happened today in this police department, that would not be tolerated one hundred percent”, and, “would not be acceptable behavior and [the department] would weed any bad person out.” Goltara claimed what may have been normal behavior many years ago is no longer acceptable now, and mentioned that the police department has “to grow with the times.”
