Reelect Kevin Wilkto Walnut Creek council
When armed protesters challenged, obstructed and threatened pedestrians in entrance of the Deliberate Parenthood workplace in Walnut Creek, I attended the following Metropolis Council assembly. I requested that they take fast motion to make sure secure passage close to the Deliberate Parenthood facility.
I discovered that Kevin Wilk and the council had already taken steps to implement the buffer zone across the facility and had satisfied the native protesters to ship the out-of-state armed “security” again to their cities of origin. To my data, these harmful actions haven’t been repeated.
Kevin Wilk is aware of group wants and efficient at discovering options. I particularly admire his exercise on environmental points and guaranteeing civility in public discourse.
I encourage you to hitch me in voting for Kevin Wilk.

We’d like a harder DA, so please recall Value and get offenders prosecuted to the fullest extent of the legislation, which is, in spite of everything, the first obligation of a DA.

Check scores a failurefor our faculties
Re: “California’s English and math test scores rise for first time since COVID, but pandemic learning loss evident” (Web page A1, Oct. 11).
I see large failure within the take a look at scores proven on this article.
In science, 30.7% of scholars had been at grade-level customary; math 35.5%; English 47%. These numbers are unacceptable to any society and our educators ought to resign in embarrassment. I’m certain the primary transfer by educators to repair this shall be to decrease the usual.
I noticed no point out of a plan to get all of those scores to 80%, which must be a minimal. Mother and father ought to voice their dissatisfaction in any respect faculty conferences.
