Letters to the Editor

"Healthy School Meals for All and the local food purchasing program is making a positive difference for students, our schools and our communities, however, without sustained funding, we risk losing this progress."

"This is a meaningful opportunity to recognize the essential work of home visitors, the families they support and the powerful impact of these programs on maternal and child health."

“Food is a basic right and an opportunity to strengthen our communities.”

“We need our lawmakers to make sure… that we do not deny any kids who could go hungry.”

“I’ve been an educator for 10 years and I have seen first hand the impact that hunger can have on kids’ ability to pay attention, to learn, and to reach their potential.”

"Why is there an experience at all, as opposed to nothing?"

“Job losses, food insecurity, and housing instability are the daily reality for many families in our community, and the systems in place to help them are under strain like never before.”

"Can we expect these congested living conditions to mimic the potential for a repeated Marshall Fire, or the current Los Angeles disaster?"

"... this bond will have impacts on our local businesses."

"I feel a deep responsibility to educate voters about what is behind Proposition 129"
