Welcome to the CALÓ News weekly newsletter.
In just a few days, California voters will start to receive ballots for the Nov. 4 special election that will redraw the state’s congressional districts. The rare mid-decade redistricting is hailed by supporters as a necessary move to even out the playing field for the 2026 midterm election. Opponents call the campaign a power grab.
In the heart of Hollywood, a new care facility for pregnant women and mothers will soon begin construction to transform what was once an empty city-owned lot into a facility to support, house and transform the lives of women living in the community.
CALÓ News interviewed two Latino candidates to be California's next governor.
Former L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa lost his bid in 2018 to now Gov. Gavin Newsom, but is motivated to do it all over again.
Another Latino in the race is former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra.
With 35 years of experience at the state and federal level, the latest polls put Becerra in third place after former Democratic Congresswoman Katie Porter, and Republican Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco.
