Nevada City Residents Reflect on their Newly Divided Community
By now you've heard about the violent attacks by counter-protesters last Sunday in our beautiful downtown Nevada City. I must admit it broke my heart. It was painful to see our community torn in two by a jacked up, flag draped gang, tearing through a non-threatening peaceful protest of local families, women, and young people beating tambourines and pots and pans. These tough guys draped themselves in ‘Thin Blue Line’ flags, as if in support of police,- but in reality they made our law enforcement's job even more impossible than it already is. Even police chief, Chad Ellis, said so. In the middle of a pandemic when everything is so fragile, these guys decided to play fight club in the middle of our historic Broad Street. These thugs actually threw a city council member off her bike to the ground, and she sustained injuries. And these self identified ‘Patriots’ justified their actions by screaming down everyone in their path, (with their unmasked mouths I might add), “Get out of OUR town! You don’t belong here!” It is strange to me because every one of those marching peacefully that day was from HERE. Where did this idea come from that everyone who disagrees with us is now so foreign that we can’t possibly believe that they could be our neighbors? When did this happen to us? Covid is not just a disease of the body, but it’s also a sickness of the mind, and the soul. Moved by these events to speak out, fifth generation Nevada City resident, Richard Baker, whose family has been in Nevada County since the 1840’s, shares his heartfelt thoughts on how Sunday’s turn of events has affected him and his relationship to his community.

Constitutional Law Group of Texas Comes to Nevada City, CA
Now, it doesn’t take a genius to walk around and see the big changes being made to our downtowns. The roll back of indoor restaurant dining due to the out of control coronavirus has put all restaurants in a fight to survive. Thanks to the Cities, County, and the Environmental Health Department, it looks like this summer our businesses have a workable solution. The outdoor dining is a creative fix and it has tons of community support. Our Nevada County looks darn near European with its festive patios and people feeling safe to come out again. So it’s a bit surprising to see flyers in the windows of a handful of businesses saying they will not close their indoor dining, despite the State’s Public Health order, the Cities making outdoor dining accommodations for them, and the free PPE from the County. They are claiming some kind of ‘constitutional rights’ to do as they please during a national health emergency. This claim of ‘rights’ is xeroxed on fliers in their windows. The flier states, “We are a Constitutionally Compliant Business. We are not infringing on anyone’s inalienable rights. By law, we do not follow any of the Governor’s, mayors, health departments, or other Government agency orders or suggestions pertaining to social distancing or mask wearing. Your health is YOUR responsibility” Signed by the Constitutional Law Group of San Antonio, Texas. Turns out, this so called ‘Law Group’s’ leader, Rick Martin, has never passed the BAR, and is not licensed to give legal advice in California OR TEXAS. In fact, not one single ‘lawyer’ included on Rick’s website is licensed to practice law ANYWHERE. But a pesky law degree, passing the BAR or holding a license to practice law doesn’t stand in the way of this group. To quote their webpage, “A "BAR" attorney has sworn an oath to defend the COURT. A Constitutional Assistance of Counsel has made no such oath.” Sounds legit! Giving unlicensed legal advice while representing themselves as lawyers is actually illegal. So why are spokespersons for Texas lawyers going door to door to our local Nevada County businesses trying to con them with misguided advice to risk the health of themselves and their customers? Especially when what they are preaching isn’t democracy but anarchy. Now, there is no doubt that our small business owners are holding on for dear life. No one wants to see anyone lose their credibility, their business license, or god forbid, their liquor license. But these so-called 'Constitutional advisors’ are outright ignoring the Supreme Court’s ruling of Jacobson v Massachusetts, where the Court ruled that when there is a public emergency, states can enact rules and laws to protect its citizens. This rule has been in place since 1905! So we’re left with a lot of questions. Who is encouraging these businesses to risk it all and die on this hill, based the dubious legal advice of unqualified lawyers with ulterior motives? Are these poor businesses being used as political pawns in a game played by outsiders who don’t care about them one bit? Who benefits by encouraging our local businesses to risk it all and splinter away from their own community?

CAD1, The 2018 Primaries - Episode 12
As the first year of the Trump Administration and the 114th Congress wraps up its first chaotic year, let’s look forward to what positive change we CAN bring about in the year ahead. This is the year of the 2018 midterm elections. Front and center on the agenda is the seat of incumbent Congressman, Doug LaMalfa. In 2017, LaMalfa served as a guaranteed rubber stamp for Representative Paul Ryan and the GOP lead congress. LaMalfa predictably voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act; voted to shrink Bears Ears and other national monuments; voted to allow mining pollution to be released into waterways; voted to cut funding to medicare, meals on wheels, and planned parenthood; and voted to give corporations a massive tax cut they didn’t need, adding one point five trillion dollars to the federal deficit. Thankfully we have the November elections and four qualified candidates running for LaMalfa’s seat. Frontrunners Jessica Holcombe of Auburn, and Quincy’s, Marty Walters, both have strong backgrounds in law and business development. New candidate, Audrey Denney, has made a career in teaching agriculture and is president of the board of an international human rights organization. All are supporters of job creation through education and vocational training, healthcare for all, climate science, and government transparency. All pledge to cross the aisles and work with opposing viewpoints. The candidates are making the rounds now, listening to voters and talking about their plans to bring jobs and opportunity to our district. The first 2018 election that needs your vote is the Primary election on June 5. California’s primary system is different than most states. Our Primary system changed in 2010, and now is a nonpartisan blanket primary where the top two vote winners, regardless of political party, advance to the general election on November 6. Only two other states, Washington and Nebraska, use this open primary system. So if you want to send a message to Washington on how you feel about the job they’re doing, June 5th is your first chance, even if you are registered as ‘no-party-preference’. Then mark your calendars to vote again on November 6, when the general election will determine who will go on to the House of Representatives. You can register to vote online anytime at registertovote.ca.gov. To vote in the Primaries, be sure to register by May 21st. Even if you miss the deadline, you can still register conditionally and VOTE at your county elections office up until June 5. Get online at registertovote.ca.gov today. There you can make sure your registration is still up to date, change your party preference, or request a mail-in ballot. Then mark your calendar. Vote in person on June 5 from 7am to 8pm, or mail-in your ballot from the comfort of your couch anytime until June 5. Did you know 16 and 17 year olds can pre-register to vote, right now? By pre-registering, they are automatically registered to vote on the day they turn 18. Let’s all make a point of getting our kids involved in our democracy early. After all, the decisions made today affect their lives in the future. Remember your vote is your voice. Be heard.
