Ballots are out, your mailbox is probably getting filled with fliers. It can be hard to sift through, especially for local races! HayCoCoa has partnered with FAJ Action Fund and Hayward Herald to put together a local voter guide to help you understand what is on your ballot.

BREAKING: UC Davis has divested from apartheid Israel. The bill prevents the ASUCD’s $20 mill budget from being spent “on companies complicit in the occupation and genocide.”
This is huge. University divestment efforts played a massive role in ending South African apartheid.

Hayward School Board member JOE RAMOS is running against Lupe for County School Board. And when he loses he will run against Austin for Hayward Unified. JOE HAS TO GO. His political agenda is harming our most vulnerable students. TWOgether - LUPE & AUSTIN can make it happen.

California will be impacted by two significant atmospheric rivers over the next 7-10 days, bringing widespread heavy rain and mountain snow, with potential flood issues.
The first storm will move through the state Wed-Thurs, bringing widespread rain totals of 2-5 inches across NorCal with a couple of feet of wet, heavy snow in the Sierra. SoCal will also see significant rain, with 1-3 inches expected across much of the region.
The second storm, however, is by far the most concerning from a flooding perspective, especially for Central/Southern California.
Models are showing the potential for the second atmospheric river arriving early next week to potentially stall/slow down over Central/Southern California. This could bring prolonged periods of heavy rain on already saturated soils, bringing the potential for significant flood issues.
Stay tuned.

DIVESTMENT NEWS: Hayward, California votes to remove Intel, Hyundai, Caterpillar, and Chevron from its investment portfolio. All four companies are complicit in Israel's human rights violations. It's time for other US cities and institutions to divest from genocide and apartheid!
The Hayward City Council voted to divest the city’s stock ownership stakes in four companies that have ties with Israel — apparently the first city in the Bay Area to take such a measure.
