More homes in Rancho Palos Verdes landslide area to lose gas service

By City News Service

Another54homes impacted by continuing land movement in Rancho Palos Verdes were expected to lose natural gas service Friday, further adding to the woes faced by residents in danger of losing their homes entirely due to the slide.

According to the Southern California Gas Co., gas service was to be cut off at 3 p.m. Friday to 29 homes in the western Seaview area and 25 homes in the Portuguese Bend Beach Club.

In a statement, the utility said a “sudden gas line break” occurred Aug. 30 on Exultant Drive in the Seaview area, and as a result “there is no way to safely continue gas service to 16 homes on Admirable Drive, eight homes on Dauntless Drive and five homes on Palos Verdes Drive.”

Issues with a separate gas line on Palos Verdes Drive South — which previously prompted the discontinuation of gas service to 135 homes in the Portuguese Bend area in late July — will now prompt the cutting off of service Friday to 25

homes in the Portuguese Bend Beach Club area, with the affected residences on Sea Urchin Lane, Seascape Road, Seawall Road, Spindrift Drive, Spindrift Lane and Yacht Harbor Drive.

“At this time, SoCalGas does not know when it will

be safe to restore service to these communities,” according to SoCalGas. “We understand this situation remains difficult and uncertain for many in the community. Emergency disaster relief may be available to customers affected by these

shutoffs. More information about SoCalGas’ Emergency Disaster Relief program can be found at socalgas.com/ EDR.”

Rancho Palos Verdes city officials said there are no evacuation orders in place for the Seaview or Portu-

Tguese Bend Beach Club areas, so residents are free to remain in their homes, even if they have lost gas and/or electrical service.

On Monday, Southern California Edison cut electricity service to 105 residences in the Seaview area

impacted by the landslide concerns, although 47 of those were expected to have their service restored within 24 hours. City officials said service was restored Thursday night to 34 homes along Dauntless Drive near Ladera Linda Community Park, where power had been expected to be off for as much as three weeks.

On Sunday, 140 homes in the Portuguese Bend community had their electrical service turned off. Those residents were placed under an evacuation warning, although many of them have opted to remain in their homes.

Gov. Gavin Newsom proclaimed a state of emergency Tuesday in the city in an effort to free up state resources to assist in the response.

“The Governor’s Office of Emergency Services has been coordinating with the city and county for nearly a year to support the response to the land movement, including providing techni-

EPA proposes Superfund designation for Exide site in Vernon

he U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on Wednesday proposed adding a former lead-processing and battery recycling site in Vernon to the Superfund National Priorities List, which would make it eligible to receive federal funding for long-term cleanup efforts.

The Exide Technologies Inc. facility, 2700 S. Indiana St., operated from 1922-2014, and groundwater sampling

from on-site monitoring wells since the 1980s consistently has shown trichloroethylene, or TCE, levels “an order of magnitude higher than those in nearby wells,” according to an EPA report.

TCE contamination in the facility’s south yard is four times higher than the acceptable levels for public drinking water supplies.

Gov. Gavin Newsom welcomed the proposed

Superfund designation.

“This is a huge step forward in our critical work to protect surrounding communities from Exide’s toxic legacy,” he said in a statement. “The Superfund designation would bring in vital federal resources to further the state’s ongoing cleanup — one of the largest in U.S. history. We look forward to continued progress with federal partners to remedy

this decades-long injustice and do right by our communities.”

In July 2022, officials from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control requested that the EPA assess the former Exide facility to see if it was eligible for Superfund status.

To date, state efforts have remediated lead contamination for more than 5,300 properties in the surrounding

area, which is disproportionately burdened by pollution, according to Newsom’s office. California has spent more than $770 million to clean up contamination that resulted from Exide’s lead and battery operations.

The EPA is accepting public comments on the proposed Superfund designation until Nov. 4. On Sept. 18 at 5:30 p.m., the agency will conduct a virtual public

information session about the proposal and offer tips on how to submit comments.

“The proposal to add Exide to the Superfund list is the first step in a process, and we will be 100% committed to engaging and gathering feedback from the community the entire way,” EPA Pacific Southwest Regional Admin-

Latino Theater Company’s ‘A Girl Grows Wings’ inspired by undocumented testimonials

Join Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman at Discovery Cube LA

By Staff By Staff

Latino Theater Company and Mexico’s Organización Secreta Teatro present the U.S. premiere of “A Girl Grows Wings.” Commissioned by Latino Theater Company and developed in the company’s Circle of Imaginistas playwriting group, this work by Chicana playwright Marisela Treviño Orta premiered earlier this year in an interdisciplinary production developed and devised by Mexico City’s Organización Secreta Teatro, directed by artistic director Rocío Carrillio. That production now makes its way back to Latino Theater Company for a two-week run, Oct. 12 through Oct. 20 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown L.A. (Following its initial two-week run, A Girl Grows Wings will see additional performances as part of Latino Theater Company’s upcoming Encuentro 2024

Latino/a/x theater festival, set to take place Oct. 24 through Nov. 10.)

Inspired by testimonials and essays written by young, undocumented immigrants known as “Dreamers,” “A Girl Grows Wings” depicts one girl’s journey as she navigates the fallout her status inflicts on her hopes and dreams. The daughter of undocumented immigrants who fled violence in their home country, Alma’s parents cross the border when she is just an infant. At the age of 18, Alma begins to navigate the world of possibility in the only country she’s ever called home. However, learning of her undocumented status presents new challenges and betrayals. Alma goes on a journey to reconnect with her fractured cultural identity and her familial roots. Triumphing over adversity, she grows her

wings in a touchingly beautiful and imaginative style.

“A Girl Grows Wings” opens on Saturday, Oct. 12 at 8 p.m., with performances thereafter on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 4 p.m. through Oct. 20. Two preview performances take place on Thursday, Oct. 10 and Friday, Oct. 11, both at 8 p.m. All tickets are PayWhat-You-Can in $5 increments: $10, $15, $20, $25. $30, $35, $40, $45 except the previews and the Thursday night performance, each of which is a flat $10.

The Los Angeles Theatre Center is located at 514 S. Spring St., Los Angeles, CA 90013. Parking is available for $8 with box office validation at Los Angeles Garage Associate Parking structure at 545 S. Main St., Los Angeles, CA 90013 (between 5th and 6th Streets, just behind the theater).

Visitors to Discovery Cube Los Angeles will join forces with members of DC’s Justice League — including Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman — when they arrive in Sylmar for “DC Super Heroes: Discover Your Superpowers,” an interactive exhibition that will open Oct. 5, 2024 through Jan. 20, 2025.

A collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment, the limited time exhibit invites families to grab their capes as “reserve Super Heroes-intraining.” During this temporary exhibit, brave recruits will be called on by members of the Justice League to make the world a safer place by battling Super-Villains in the fictional, crime-infested city. Recruits-in-training will join the DC Super Heroes in solving problems and catching Supervillains in a series of fast-paced

challenges in the city and surrounding area.

Other activities include a quiz, where everyone in the family can learn which DC Super Hero they most resemble. Visitors are encouraged to help Batman in Gotham City fight off The Joker who has sabotaged the Bat-Signal or work with Wonder Woman to rescue artifacts that The Cheetah stole from the Museum of Ancient History.

“The characters of the DC Universe are iconic symbols of teamwork, selfdiscovery, strength and justice that inspire children and families to be more than we are, and do more than we thought we could,” said Jennifer Pace Robinson, president and CEO of the museum that produced the exhibit, The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis.

Layoffs at California immigration services center lead to protests

By Suzanne Potter, Producer, Public News Service

The feds are laying off more than 400 workers at an immigration application processing center in Laguna Niguel, a move labor advocates say is unionbusting.

Workers have protested for months because the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is breaking its contract and sending its jobs to lower-paying nonunion facilities, primarily in Texas.

Robert Holland, former chief steward for the United Electrical, Radio and Machine

Workers of America Local 1008, was laid off in July.

“I think that they should recall the workers,” Holland asserted. “Really to get through the huge backlog they have they need all the workers they can get. They should actually be really hiring people.”

The agency did not respond to repeated requests for comment but has said the plan is to move to more efficient digital operations. But workers said so far it has just led to a slowdown in

processing people’s visa and green-card applications, as highly skilled, experienced employees are let go.

Joel Faypon, a quality control specialist and president of Local 1008, said U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services said the first round of layoffs would be it, then a month later announced plans to lay off everyone else.

“They replied that everyone who were not affected by the January layoffs will remain employed until November 2025,” Faypon

recounted. “So the government basically lied to us.”

Rep. Lou Correa, D-Calif., represents the Laguna Niguel area in Orange County and sent the agency a letter several months ago asking them to stop the layoffs.

“When USCIS said we’re going to lay off people, it’s perplexing, because they have a backlog, and yet they’re looking to lay off people, and yet your revenues come from user fees,” Correa stressed. “It doesn’t make sense all the way around.”

California tribes ask Newsom to sign bill on co-management of lands, waters

By Suzanne Potter, Producer, Public News Service

Indigenous leaders are asking California Gov. Gavin Newsom to sign a bill that would allow federally recognized tribes to sign agreements with the state to co-manage and co-govern ancestral lands and waters.

Assembly Bill 1284 unanimously passed both houses of the state Legislature this week.

Scott Sullivan is vice chairman of the Tolowa Dee-ni’ Nation.

“This is going to allow us to deepen our relationship on a government-togovernment level, it’ll give us better access to our traditional ancestral territories to improve the environment and to reconnect our people to the land,” he said.

Tribes hope the bill will strengthen shared decision-making around the

new Yurok-Tolowa Dee-ni’ Indigenous Marine Stewardship Area - which covers the coastline and up to three miles out from the Mendocino County town of Little River up to the CaliforniaOregon border.

Fawn Murphy, chair of the Pulikla Tribe of Yurok People, said the tribes want to promote biodiversity and reverse erosion and environmental degradation.

“As these devastating climate impacts are coming and things are changing so rapidly, we need to bring it back to what works. California tribal people have been practicing traditional ecological knowledge since time immemorial,” Murphy explained.

The tribes also seek input into future offshore

Can relocation trends across state lines swing the 2024 election?

By Joe Robison, moveBuddha via Stacker

Will recent moves by Americans across state lines decide this year’s presidency?

After all, just about 13% of Americans relocate yearly, and almost 20% are between states. According to moveBuddha’s calculations, that means roughly 30 million Americans have moved to a new state since the 2020 election.

Spread that across 50 states, and migrations can shift elections.

This happened in the 2020 presidential election when 29% of voters were new to their state voting rolls. Relocation largely went from large urban areas to smaller urban areas in redder states.

What about this year?

Looking at moveBuddha’s mover search data collected since the last election, we found which states will experience an internal shake-up due to a tsunami influx of new residents — and how this could impact the upcoming presidential election.

Key Takeaways

-- Arizona, Nevada, and Georgia: The battleground swing states. These swing states drawing in new residents to their urban blue islands may be swinging blue in 2024.

-- Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania: Swing states with stagnating in-moves will not have their 2024 election numbers changed by migration.

-- Job growth and strong economies mean red states keep growing and winning electoral seats, but only some will keep their conservative identities.

-- Blue states are losing seats and population but getting deeper blue.

Blue islands are key to tipping elections

One big way that internal migration could impact the 2024 election is in states where the battle between Democrats and Republicans is already close — and which are growing because new residents are pouring in.

So, which of the nation’s purple states have been hot on movers’ lists since the last election?

Of this year’s battleground states, Nevada, Georgia and Arizona have been some of the top move-to states of the past four years.

Election watchers might wonder if a state’s new residents can sway its political base, and not be swayed by

it. The key is “blue islands.”

What’s a blue island? It’s a Democratic pocket in an otherwise Republican area.

Large cities are more likely to lean Democratic than their rural counterparts, so the island effect is evident in states that heavily lean red, where Democratic voters cluster in cities like Nashville in Tennessee, where voting districts were split up to eliminate the threat, or Austin in Texas.

To grow, a blue island has to be large enough to support a diverse economy and accommodate new residents, like Atlanta, Las Vegas and Phoenix. All three are their swing state’s biggest economic hubs. Phoenix alone boasts more than a million more people than the state’s second-largest city, Tucson. Perhaps because of the sheer people-power of their blue islands, these three swing states have seen progressives make statelevel inroads since 2012.

Blue islands sway their states with jobs and cheap housing States with powerful blue islands share more than simply being leftleaning urban areas in right-leaning states, where progressives have made inroads since 2012. They’re all in the top ten for job growth. That means these positions are likely being filled by newcomers to these cities.

Not coincidentally, Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona are all swing states that were instrumental in deciding the 2020 election. In Georgia, interstate moves to Atlanta were instrumental in shifting the 2020 election to Biden.

Ironically, blue islands might benefit from lax state-level business regulation, which lets them grow into large-scale job magnets for their states. That entices young, educated in-migration. Since both Gen Z and millennials, as well as those with college degrees, are more likely to vote blue. New workers in blue island cities grow a state’s Democratic base.

Movers are flocking to strong economies with affordable housing costs and job opportunities.

Young workers bring Democratic votes

That means that at the state level, many of the “red” moves are actually trending “green,” as new residents say yes to new financial opportunities and

homeownership in up-andcoming cities.

Consider the example of Arizona, a “swing state” thanks to Joe Biden’s narrow victory in the 2020 election. Biden was the state’s first Democratic presidential pick since 1948. Today, Arizona is even more poised to vote blue due to high in-migration from those wowed by its growing economy. Arizona is:

-- No. 10 for GDP growth from Q3 2020 to Q3 2023

-- No. 5 for job growth from Jan 2020 to Jan 2024

-- No. 5 for building permits per capita in 2023

Some analyses also point to “priced-out” Californians and Washingtonians as a reason Arizona has passed recent progressive legislation. Ultimately, where economic prosperity brings young, urban workers pushed out of democratic strongholds by the high cost of living, those young, urban workers bring Democratic votes.

Midwestern swing states swing less

The same swing power doesn’t apply to Midwestern swing states Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. MoveBuddha data shows that all three have had more moves exiting their states than moving in since 2020, especially in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

That has resulted in a net loss of electoral seats for Michigan and Pennsylvania following the 2020 census.

Because interstate moves are likely to prioritize jobs, family, and cost of living rather than politics, moving influx favors red states but likely doesn’t supply them with solely red residents.

While a mixed political bag of residents exits these Midwestern swing states, no newcomers arrive, leaving their internal demographics mostly unchanged. That’s down to the economic fates of the Midwest. Housing costs in the lower half of states might attract incoming grads looking to live better on the cheap.

But that’s not much use when job creation is also in the bottom half of states. GDP growth is also in the bottom half.

All three states traditionally comprise the “blue wall” where Democrats have dominated politics. Yet all have seen more of their residents embrace populism as the Republican party and Donald Trump win over working-class voters.

While they’re still important battleground states in 2024, it’s not because a wall of new residents is changing the game.

Seeing red: Moves to red states still going strong

The states grabbing the most new residents are staunchly red. For moves spanning 2020 to 2024, just one blue state appears in the top eight for most in-moves versus out-moves: Maine with 20 electoral votes, split.

Voters leaving blue states may not be Democrats

Conversely, among the top states for out-moves, the eight largest losers since 2020 are all blue: California lost the most people compared to in-moves, followed by New Jersey, Illinois, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York and Massachusetts.

However, research suggests that those deep blue-state goodbyes aren’t necessarily Democrats. Instead, they may be Republican residents self-sorting to locales where they feel they’ll be more welcome.

For instance, movers from Washington to Idaho have overwhelmingly registered to vote as Republicans in their new state, turning the state even more Republican — and making it harder for Republicans in Washington to edge out Democrats in future elections. Further, there are no “blue islands” in Idaho where urban workers find their perfect neighborhood — just three counties in Idaho went blue in the 2020 election, and none include the state’s most populous cities like Boise, Pocatello or Idaho Falls.

For states like Idaho,

the wave of new Republican residents won’t change elections. As the Republican candidate, Donald Trump won Idaho by almost 31% in 2020. Adding to his lead is simply icing on the cake for Republican Idahoans.

Are red states holding onto their red identities better?

If red states are earning more blue and red residents, why aren’t they turning bluer? There are some reasons:

-- Economics is political. Movers seeking a businessfriendly environment and low taxes are likely selfsorting into Republican states.

-- More voters are registering as Republicans, including movers who are taking on the identities of their new locales, or those simply registering as Republicans so they can have a voice in red-state primaries.

-- Republican states tend to be sunbelt states that attract older retirees, who lean more Republican than other demographics, solidifying the state’s existing political leanings.

-- Entrenched state cultures are tough to change but easy to join. Newcomers may be adopting their new neighbors’ culture rather than swaying it.

South Carolina, the second-top move-in state from 2020-24, is a prime example. With more than twice the number of people moving in than moving out from 2020 to March 2024, it’s a conservative behemoth that’s only getting bigger, and it has done so while keeping its Republican tilt.

While South Carolina is No. 2 in in-moves, it may be retaining its Republican

identity because it fares a little worse on dimensions of economic growth, suggesting it’s not attracting as many young, urban workers as other states. In fact, there is plenty of evidence it’s attracting a retirement crowd eager to enjoy its beaches and mild weather.

And while it’s growing, its GDP growth in the past four years has not kept pace with population growth, coming in 18th. Similarly, job growth over the same period lags compared to other topgrowth regions at 11th place. In the end, it may not be simply that a state wins new movers that shift its politics. Political change may be linked more closely to what kinds of movers they attract.

Blue states lose electoral votes but see a silver lining

A flip-flop from red to blue would be the end of the story if moves from blue states were all Democrats moving their vote to a new locale. But it’s not an equal trade.

Many young movers are actually Democrats heading to jobs in blue cities in red states. Republicans are also heading to red states. Ditto retirees seeking sunshine, those seeking a safer environment, and those chasing affordability.

Regardless of their political leanings, red states are the big relocation winners, while blue states are attracting a narrower band of newcomers.

Overall, Republicans are losing ground in existing blue states. With an exodus of voters, they may never get it back.

The blue states are staying blue, though losing electoral votes. The attractive economics in top-move cities suggest that red states will gain the electoral votes that blue states are losing, for now, as blue state populations get smaller and older but don’t draw new residents.

For instance, the top seven states for GDP growth since 2020 are red. Eight have seen positive inflow since 2020, and a clear overlap with top move-in destinations like: Tennessee, Texas, Florida and Idaho. This suggests movers are moving for opportunities above politics. However, it also means the political tide will favor red states with strong economies.

But blue states have a lot to be thankful for. With fewer residents, Democraticbacked policies hoping to spread more resources to more residents will get easier.

Residents in blue states already live longer lives than their red-state counterparts, and that advantage might be attributed to political policies from education to healthcare. So, as red states amass electoral seats at the federal level, state-level Democrats in blue states may see their work gain traction, attracting newcomers in the future. They’re already seeing benefits.

“Red state brain drain” has meant that educated movers are more likely to head for blue states. Applications for academic positions are down in red state universities, for example, and applications for ob-gyn residencies are down in states where abortion has been outlawed.

The impact of highly skilled workers bucking the low-cost migration trend — heading to popular blue-state cities like Olympia, Washington, or Eugene, Oregon — doesn’t make up for the

number of lost blue-state electoral votes, but it does bode well for the caliber of services these states might provide and their future well-being, including the inventions they may come to support in new business starts and the health and welfare of their residents.

In 2024, More swing states will be swinging the blues

Our 2024 prediction: Deep red states without large cities will continue to get redder, deep blue states will get bluer than ever, and purple states with large job influxes in urban hubs could easily go blue.

Those seeing retirees and sluggish job growth compared to their rate of in-moves? They’re holding on to their red state credentials.

In the end, changing the politics of a state means changing its demographics, not just its population. And states where Gen Z and millennial workers are making their homes in urban economic centers will have to reckon with changing political tides.

As blue states have found, it’s hard to grow when young people can’t afford to start their lives in your state. And as red states are soon to discover, it’s hard to stay red when your low prices, high job growth and growing-city vibes are the perfect place for young adults.

Hunter Biden enters surprise guilty plea to tax evasion charges in LA

By Fred Shuster, City News Service

After a volley of legal arguments and objections from prosecutors, Hunter Biden pleaded guilty Thursday to federal taxevasion charges, just as jury selection was set to begin in the trial of the president’s son in downtown Los Angeles.

Biden, 54, of Malibu, made an open plea to the court, meaning there are no guarantees about what sentence he could receive. He admitted all nine charges he was facing -- three felonies and six misdemeanors. U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi told Biden he could potentially face up to 15 years in prison along with fines ranging as high as $1 million.

Scarsi set sentencing for Dec. 16.

Biden’s attorney, Abbe Lowell, initially said Biden wanted to enter what is known as an “Alford plea,” under which he pleads guilty but continues to maintain his innocence. Lowell said Biden recognized that prosecutors’ evidence was “overwhelming” and would likely lead to his conviction in a trial.

Prosecutor Leo Wise strongly objected to the idea of an Alford plea, insisting that Biden is demonstrably guilty, and it would be an injustice to allow him to maintain his innocence.

After multiple court recesses and legal discussions, Biden ultimately was sworn in to enter his open plea to the court, with his attorney saying

Biden wanted to resolve the case — which dated back to a time when he was addicted to drugs.

Before the plea was officially entered, Wise insisted on reading the entire indictment against Biden, which is more than 50 pages, into the record.

Following the proceeding, Biden issued a statement saying he opted to enter the guilty plea to spare his family the grief of a trial.

“I went to trial in Delaware not realizing the anguish it would cause my family, and I will not put them through it again,” he said. “When it became clear to me that the same prosecutors were focused not on justice but on dehumanizing me for my actions during my addiction, there was only one path left for me. I will not subject my family to more pain, more invasions of privacy and needless embarrassment. For all I have put them through over the years, I can spare them this, and so I have decided to plead guilty.”

Jury selection had been scheduled to begin Thursday morning in Biden’s trial, and 100 prospective panelists were summoned to the downtown courthouse.

But Lowell’s surprise announcement that Biden was prepared to plead guilty upended those proceedings.

The indictment accused Biden of failing to pay more than $1.4 million in taxes.

Prosecutors contended that Biden “spent millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle rather than paying his tax bills.”

Defense lawyers said previously they believe the case was brought “in direct response to political pressure,” according to filings

in Los Angeles federal court. Hunter Biden’s attorneys said the defendant has repaid the government $2 million in back taxes and penalties. He was charged with evading a tax assessment, failing to file and pay taxes, and filing a false or fraudulent tax return. His trial was expected to

last two weeks, with opening statementsanticipated Monday in the courtroom of Scarsi, an appointee of former President Donald Trump.

Evidence of the younger Biden’s partying during a period when he was admittedly using crack cocaine and allegedly willfully failed to pay more than $1.4 million in taxes were expected to become part of the trial, federal prosecutors indicated.

Scarsi previously rejected Hunter Biden’s bid to toss the case after the defendant sought to argue that David Weiss, the special counsel overseeing the prosecution, was improperly appointed.

The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Biden’s request to revive the bid to have the charges against him dismissed.

Regarding the tax charges, the 56-page indictment alleged that between 2016 and Oct. 15, 2020, “the defendant spent this money on drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing and other items of a personal nature, in short, everything but his taxes.”

One of Hunter Biden’s attorneys, veteran Los Angeles criminal lawyer Mark Geragos, unsuccessfully petitioned the court to allow testimony that the death of the defendant’s mother and sister in a 1972 car crash and the death of his brother from cancer in 2015 caused him to ignore his tax obligations.

In June, Biden was convicted of three felony charges in a separate case brought in Delaware stemming from his 2018 purchase of a gun. He was found guilty of having lied on a mandatory gun-purchase form by saying he was not illegally using or addicted to drugs — when, in fact, he later admitted to having been addicted to illegal narcotics at the time.

Biden is scheduled to be sentenced in the Delaware gun case on Nov. 13, in the week after the presidential election.

Described in the indictment as a Georgetown- and Yale-educated lawyer, lobbyist, consultant and businessperson, Hunter Biden served on the board of a Ukrainian industrial conglomerate and a Chinese private equity fund during the time of the tax allegations.

“He negotiated and executed contracts and agreements for business and legal services that paid millions of dollars of compensation to him and/or his domestic corporations, Owasco PC and Owasco LLC,” according to the indictment for tax evasion.

In addition to his business interests, the defendant was an employee of a multinational law firm, the document states.

Hunter Biden has said he had forgotten to pay his taxes during a period when he was in the grip of drug addiction.

Bill to create California’s first Rare Disease Advisory Council moves to governor’s desk

By Staff

Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur (D-Hollywood) announced Wednesday that AB 2613, a bill to establish the Jacqueline Marie Zbur Rare Disease Advisory Council (RDAC) in California, has passed both houses of the Legislature and now heads to the governor’s desk. The bill will establish the RDAC composed of diverse stakeholders, including patients, caregivers, medical experts, and advocates, who will collaborate to identify gaps in care, recommend improvements to existing programs like Medi-Cal, and promote research and innovation.

With over 10,000 rare diseases affecting 1 in 10 Cali-

fornians, it is essential that the state’s policies reflect the real needs of this vulnerable population. Without a RDAC, critical decisions are often made without the input of those most affected, increasing the risk of poor health and economic outcomes.

“AB 2613 represents a significant step forward in our efforts to support the millions of Californians living with rare diseases,” said Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur. “This bill is deeply personal for me, inspired by my sister Jackie, whose struggle with ALS highlighted the shortcomings of our broken healthcare system. She made me promise to do whatever I could to fix it, and this bill is

one of the ways I am fulfilling that promise. I believe it will make a real difference for countless families across our state, and amplify the voices of those affected while providing the Legislature with the guidance needed to create meaningful policies that address the unique challenges faced by the rare disease community.”

“We are thankful to Assemblymember Zbur for championing this important legislation to create the Jacqueline Marie Zbur Rare Disease Advisory Council in California, and the rare disease patients and caregivers whose advocacy efforts helped this bill pass both houses of the Legislature

unanimously,” said Lindsey Viscarra, State Policy Manager for the National Organization for Rare Disorders. “There are more than 10,000 rare diseases

and while each is unique, common challenges exist for patients, which can be improved by giving the rare disease community a prominent voice in state govern-

ment decision making. We urge Governor Newsom to sign AB2613 into law as soon as possible.”

The governor has until Sept. 30, 2024 to sign the bill.

ORDINANCE

NO. 2248

AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING SPEED LIMITS FOR CERTAIN LOCATIONS AS PROVIDED BY MONTEREY PARK MUNICIPAL CODE § 10.32.010(B) IN ACCORDANCE WITH VEHICLE CODE § 22357 BASED UPON AN ENGINEERING AND TRAFFIC SURVEY AS DEFINED BY VEHICLE CODE § 627.

THE CITY COUNCIL DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1: The City Council finds as follows:

A. Vehicle Code § 22352 establishes prima facie speed limits throughout the City;

B. Vehicle Code § 22357 authorizes the City to establish certain speed limits based upon an engineering and traffic survey as defined by Vehicle Code § 627;

C. In accordance with Vehicle Code § 40802, the speed limits authorized by Vehicle Code § 22357 must be justified by engineering and traffic surveys conducted every five to 10 years;

D. The City completed speed zone engineering and traffic survey (meeting the requirements of Vehicle Code § 627) which, among other things, recommended a speed limit change on Hellman Avenue, between Garfield Avenue and New Avenue, from 35 miles-per-hour (“MPH”) to 30 MPH. That engineering and traffic survey is attached as Exhibit “A,” and incorporated by reference (“Survey”); and

E. This Ordinance, and the speed limits established below, rely upon the Survey for purposes of Vehicle Code § 22357 and is adopted in accordance with Monterey Park Municipal Code § 10.32.010(B) as an uncodified ordinance.

SECTION 2: The City Council adopts the Survey. Based upon the Survey, and in accordance with Vehicle Code §§ 22352 and 22357, the City Council amends Exhibit A to Ordinance No. 2144, adopted November 1, 2017, as to Hellman Avenue as follows:

SECTION 3: The City Manager, or designee, is authorized and directed to (a) install signs providing notification of the speed limits established in Section 2 of this Ordinance; and (b) take any additional action required to implement this Ordinance.

LEGALS

SECTION 4: California Environmental Quality Act Exemption. The City Council determines that this ordinance is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”) because it consists only of minor revisions and clarifications to an existing code of speed control regulations established in accordance with state law and will not have the effect of deleting or substantially changing any regulatory standards or findings. This Ordinance, therefore, is an action being taken for enhanced protection of the environment and that does not have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment. Consequently, it is categorically exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines §§ 15301 as a minor alteration of existing public or private structures involving no expansion of use; 15305 as a minor alteration in land use limitations which do not result in any changes in land use or density; and 15308 as an action taken by a regulatory agency as authorized by California law to assure maintenance or protection of the environment.

SECTION 5: Repeal or amendment of any provision of the MPMC or any other ordinance will not affect any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before, or preclude prosecution and imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before this Ordinance’s effective date. Any such repealed part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Ordinance.

SECTION 6: If this the entire Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, any repeal of the MPMC or other the city ordinance by this Ordinance will be rendered void and cause such MPMC provision or other the city ordinance to remain in full force and effect for all purposes.

SECTION 7: The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City of Monterey Park’s book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and, within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.

SECTION 8: This Ordinance will become effective on the 30th day following its passage and adoption.

LA County sheriff’s deputy charged with federal civil rights violation

By City News Service

ALos Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputy was charged Wednesday with allegedly using excessive force when he assaulted and peppersprayed a woman during a shoplifting investigation outside a WinCo Foods in Lancaster last year.

Trevor James Kirk, 31, of Santa Clarita, is charged in a single-count federal indictment with deprivation of rights under color of law for the force used in June 2023, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Prosecutors said Kirk, who allegedly used pepper spray on victim J.H., will be arraigned on the charge in Los Angeles federal court later this month.

“When an officer violates the civil rights of another person, it undermines public safety for all of us,” U.S. Attorney Martin Estrada said in a statement. “Officers must be held accountable when they violate constitutional rights, and my office is committed to prosecuting those who

abuse their authority and breach the public’s trust.”

Prosecutors said Kirk and another deputy were responding to a possible robbery at the WinCo by a male and female suspect. Kirk and the other deputy arrived on the scene and handcuffed and detained a man matching the description of the male suspect, while a female, who matched the description of the other suspect, videotaped the deputies, according to court papers.

The indictment alleges that Kirk then approached J.H. and, without giving any commands, attempted to grab her phone. The woman turned away, at which point Kirk allegedly grabbed J.H. by her arm, hooked his left hand behind her neck, and violently threw her to the ground.

While on the ground, Kirk yelled at J.H. to “get on the ground,” and she told him that the video had already been posted on YouTube, the indictment alleges.

Kirk then placed his knee on J.H.’s shoulder and when the woman yelled for Kirk to stop and called him an expletive, Kirk cocked his right arm back with a clenched fist and threatened to punch her in the face, prosecutors allege.

The indictment alleges that Kirk used his LASD radio to call in a misleading report that he was in a fight.

Court papers further allege that shortly thereafter, without giving any additional commands to J.H., Kirk sprayed her twice in the face with pepper spray. The woman received medical attention for the spray and injuries received from being thrown to the ground, federal prosecutors said.

The indictment also alleges that Kirk then drafted and submitted a misleading report to the LASD in which he portrayed J.H. as a threat to his physical safety, claiming that the woman assaulted him, attempted to hit him, and took a “fighting” stance.

If convicted, Kirk could

Attorney’s Office.

According to the sheriff’s department, Kirk has been relieved of duty pending the outcome of the criminal case.

“The department initiated an internal criminal investigation into this

incident and subsequently turned the investigation over to the FBI,” according to a sheriff’s department statement. “We have fully cooperated with the FBI throughout their investigation. ...

“We have strict department policies and procedures pertaining to the

use of force and personnel are not immune from the law and accountability when they violate those standards. We expect our personnel to make appropriate decisions that maintain the public*s trust while serving our community with professionalism and respect.”

Gloria Romero, the formerDemocratic majority leader in the California state Senate who represented East Los Angeles and parts of the San Gabriel Valley in the state Legislature, announced Wednesday that she was switching to the Republican Party.

“Today I say ‘goodbye, adios,’ I’ve had enough. I am now another near- lifelong Democrat who is joining the growing number of people ... who are leaving the Democratic Party,” Romero said in a news conference on the

steps of the state Capitol in Sacramento.

“This is not the Democratic Party that I once championed. I do not recognize it anymore, and I cannot continue,” she continued. “I changed my voting registration today as the sun was rising to Republican, which has, under Donald Trump, become the champion of working people, the big tent. And indeed, I will vote for Donald Trump this fall.”

Romero, 69, was born in Barstow. She was elected to the California Assembly in

Romero was the first woman to serve as the California Senate’s majority leader. She was termed out in 2010.

Trump expected to attend Los Angeles fundraiser this week

By City News Service

Former President Donald Trump is expected to attend a fundraiser in the Los Angeles area this week.

According to an online post by the Trump 47 Committee, Trump will attend an “evening reception” in LA on Thursday. The exact location and time were not provided.

Attending the event will cost a minimum of $3,300. Preferred seats were being

offered for $7,500, while $50,000 will include a photo opportunity and attendance at a reception.

A $125,000 ticket will elevate the attendee to a co-host of the event, and will include a roundtable discussion with Trump, along with a photo op and reception. Serving as a member of the host committee will cost $250,000.

California Environmental Protection Secretary Yana Garcia said in a statement, “This is a critical milestone in our fight to secure environmental justice for Los Angeles communities impacted by decades of industrial pollution. I look forward to continuing to work with U.S. EPA to address the contamination left behind by the former Exide facility.”

The Superfund National Priorities List is a group of known sites throughout the nation where historic releases of dangerous pollutants significantly threaten human health and the environment.

If placed on the NPL, investigators will continue to assess if long-term cleanup is necessary, EPA officials said. The agency may add the Exide site to the NPL if the facility continues to meet the listing

Reggie Bush to be inducted to Rose Bowl Hall of Fame

By City News Service

UReggie Bush highlights the latest class of college football luminaries to be inducted into the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame, the Tournament of Roses and USC announced Wednesday.

Aside from Bush, who won two national championships and the 2005 Heisman Trophy during his three seasons at USC, the 2024 inductees are Mark Dantonio, the winningest coach in Michigan State football history, and LaMichael James, a College Football Hall of Famer as a running back for Oregon from 2009-11.

Bush is the 28th Trojans player, coach or administrator selected to the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame.

The inductees will be honored in the 136th Rose Parade on Jan. 1, and on the field later that day during the College Football Playoff Quarterfinal at the Rose

Bowl Game. They will also be recognized in a private ceremony held by the Pasadena Tournament of Roses on Dec. 31.

A consensus First Team All-American in 2004 and a unanimous selection in 2005 as an all-purpose player, Bush won the Doak Walker Award, was the Walter Camp Player of the Year, the AP Player of the Year, the Sporting News Player of the Year and the Heisman Trophy winner in 2005.

He also finished fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting in 2004, when his teammate Matt Leinart won the award.

Bush was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2023.

Bush’s 2005 Heisman Trophy was stripped from him five years later amid an improper benefits scandal -but this April, The Heisman Trust announced it was returning the honor to him.

Some local officials have been pressuring Newsom to visit the city to view the impact of the landslides and to provide state assistance for residents. County Supervisor Janice Hahn said during a news conference Sunday that she had committed another $5 million in county funds to respond to the disaster, but far

more money would be needed.

Hahn said she reached out to Newsom’s office on Saturday, and estimated that upward of $1 billion in government funding might eventually be needed to address the situation.

The city of Rancho Palos Verdes declared a local emergency earlier this summer.

The land movement in Rancho Palos Verdes has accelerated across 680 acres following heavy rains in spring 2023, causing damage to homes, roads and utilities.

“There is no playbook for an emergency like this one,” Hahn said Sunday. “We’re

The organization said it was making a formal “reinstatement” of the trophy to Bush in response to what it called “enormous changes in the college football landscape.”

Bush forfeited the trophy in 2010 after USC was sanctioned by the NCAA, which determined Bush received improper benefits from the university during his college career from 2003 to 2005.

In the years since, however, the rules governing college athletes and compensation have changed dramatically, allowing many players to land lucrative endorsement deals and payment for the use of their name and image.

According to The Heisman Trust, it will return the trophy to Bush and a replica to USC, and Bush will be allowed to participate in all future Heisman Trophy ceremonies beginning in December.
