California’s irresponsible, bloated government is making yet another round of budget cuts that won’t cover the state’s budget deficit. Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and California’s Democratic supermajority in the legislature have cut into the state’s budget deficit by another $17.3 billion between agreed-upon cuts and delays. That includes $3.6 billion in true budget cuts, with […]
California’s past two wet winters have given the state’s water supply a remarkable boost and stamped out the drought. A snowpack that had been below normal for two years was epic last year and this year. Rivers that were running low are now rushing. Reservoirs that were depleted in dry years are at last brimming with water. Perhaps one of the best examples of this remarkable turn of events is Shasta Lake. Three years ago, the lake was almost 185 feet from being full, according to the U.S. Bureau...

To the editor: Your print edition front page on April 8 had two articles about worsening circumstances in California with regard to climate change and housing, and a piece explaining the reasons conservatives don’t like us.

On April 1, the new California $20-per-hour minimum wage for fast-food workers went into effect. In signing the bill, California Gov.
