Progressive-Dems have plenty of causes to push their desire for equality to new levels of activism. But all they seem to accomplish is protesting and talking. There was the whole controversy over
Paso Robles Joint Unified School District board member Chris Arend who believes systemic racism is a fallacy and yells at Spanish speakers because the district translator doesn t translate very well as well as some of Arend s ideological cronies on the board who are worried that teaching a high school ethnic studies course will unfairly target white students.

SLO County drawing down large-scale COVID-19 response operations
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. San Luis Obispo County is currently drawing down some of its large-scale COVID-19 response operations.
Two recent announcements show the county is pulling back on two high-profile relief operations.
The county s Alternate Care Site (ACS), which was built soon after the pandemic started last year as a temporary hospital inside the Cal Poly Recreation Center, is now being dismantled.
The facility held hundreds of beds intended for future patients who were too sick to care for themselves at home but did not need acute care provided at a hospital.
