Covid (@UCSF) Chronicles, Day 1013
As we enter Covid Year 3, it’s clear we’ll be in our current predicament for the foreseeable future. This means we all need to find our own method to weigh & mitigate risks.
Today I’ll describe my “50% Rule” & how it governs my choices. (1/25)

BREAKING—a bill to make Daylight Savings permanent just passed the US Senate by **Unanimous Consent** (S.623: Sunshine Protection Act, as amended to make Daylight Saving Time permanent). It only needs to now pass the House before going to Biden’s desk!

@laurafriedman43 After all those stories broke about how little of our recycling actually gets recycled, people stopped caring, trying, and actually stopped recycling. Apparently there's very little market for our recycled materials. 💔

240+ California cities of all sizes, regions, and demographics urge @CAgovernor to #VETOSB9🚫 The flawed legislation silences community input and undermines the public review process - and doesn't even guarantee the construction of affordable homes 🏠 https://t.co/BHlR7i3gw0

[Speaker Robert Rivas @CASpeakerRivas]

#AB361 just passed the Senate Floor! ✅

State & local agencies provide essential services like water, power, & fire protection for Californians.

My bill will ensure these agencies can meet the needs of their communities during emergencies.

Off to the Assembly & then Governor!

Where is @GavinNewsom on #262? As CA crime DESTROYS our neighborhoods will he ippise this “catch and release” for criminals? Or stay silent like the @CalChiefs & @AbdulPridgen ? @AsmJimCooper @AsmCottie @AsmTbh @AsmJoseMedina @AsmJamesRamos

[CBAA @CaliBailAgents]

"Minneapolis is no closer to being a beacon of affordability than it was before upzoning even started. In fact, we’re farther from achieving it..." **Important to review the data where this has been implemented before upzoning an entire state as diverse as CA 😱 @Asm_Nazarian

[Senator Henry Stern @SenHenryStern]

We talk a lot about climate change as fire or flood. But HEAT is the quiet killer. If you agree, tell your state rep to help⁩ ⁦⁦⁦@AsmLuzRivas⁩ & I pass AB585 & invest now to keep the most vulnerable safe/cool in their homes & neighborhoods. https://t.co/Opq17RLa5U

How it works folks: 1️⃣Wildfire experts come to me & others with solutions. 2️⃣We introduce bills. 3️⃣Supermajority votes them down or refuses even a hearing. 4️⃣Fires continue to get worse. 5️⃣Supermajority cancels wildfire oversight hearing.
