undreds of bills signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom are set to take effect in California in 2026. The list of new laws, most of which take effect Thursday, include a minimum wage increase, a ban on plastic grocery bags and new ingredient for tortillas. Other new laws among the more than 800 laws passed last year address antisemitism in schools, low-cost insulin, and protections for consumers, workers and renters. “California is proving once again that progress isn’t something we talk about, it’s something we build,” Newsom said in a statement. “While some in Washington remain stuck debating yesterday’s problems, we’re focused on delivering real solutions for today’s families. These new laws reflect who we are: a state that protects workers, respects students, puts people before politics, and isn’t afraid to hold powerful interests accountable.” Detailed information about some laws taking effect in California in 2026 can be found at newsroom.courts. ca.gov/news/new-californialaws-going- effect-2026. Here is a sampling (laws take effect Jan. 1 unless otherwise noted): Minimum wage - SB 3. The minimum wage is set to increase to $16.90 per hour to account for inflation. The threshold for exempt workers will rise to $70,304 per year. Some local minimum wages, along with wages for fast food and health care industries, are higher. Tip theft - SB 648. The California Labor Commissioner can investigate, issue citations or file for civil action over tips that an employer takes from a worker. Tortillas - AB 1830. Most

store-bought corn tortillas and other corn masa products must be fortiﬁed with folic acid. The law was passed in 2024 to help prevent neural tube defects like spina biﬁda. Small businesses that make the products are exempt. Plastic bags - SB 1053. After phasing out plastic bags at retailers for nearly a decade, California now further tightens the previous law by completely eliminating single carry-out bags, including the thick kind that was widely considered reusable. Cat declawing - AB 867 bans cat owners from having their cats declawed. Immigration - AB 1261 requires the state to provide legal counsel to immigrant youths in federal or related state immigration proceedings. Juvenile justice - AB 651. Incarcerated parents

must be given the opportunity to be physically present at dependency hearings related to their child. If physical presence is waived, they can participate through videoconference or teleconference. Court procedure - AB 1524 will make public electronic records viewable at the court. People will be able to use their own equipment to copy court records for free, while the integrity of the record will still be protected. Artificial intelligence AB 316. A defendant may not say artificial intelligence that they developed, modified, or used that is alleged is to have caused harm to the plaintiff did so autonomously. Additionally, law enforcement agencies will need to identify when artificial intelligence See California laws Page 19

was used in official reports and the type of program they used (SB 524). State snake - SB 765 establishes the giant garter snake (Thamnophis gigas) as the official snake of California. Law enforcement identification - SB 805 requires law enforcement officers operating in California to display their agency and a name or badge number to the public, with some exceptions. Diwali holiday - AB 268 recognizes Diwali -- the Hindu festival of lights -- as an official state holiday. The law authorizes public schools and community colleges to close, while state employees could also take the day off. Diwali falls on Sunday, Nov. 8 in 2026, meaning the holiday

n response to a recall campaign calling for his ouster, Arcadia City Councilman David Fu defended the censure action he led against Mayor Sharon Kwan and questioned the motives of recall supporters. Fu filed this rebuttal to the recall Nov. 23, following the campaign’s launch earlier that month: “As your councilmember, my job is to do the right thing for Arcadia. In this case, the right thing was to reprimand unprofessional, dishonest behavior by the Mayor. That’s what a censure is: a reprimand for unacceptable conduct. “The public overwhelmingly supported the censure, as did every member of the council except the Mayor. “Because Arcadia deserves the best. “Now, a few people want to punish me for doing the right thing. “Honesty, principle, respect for law: these are the reasons why you chose me to represent you. That’s also why your police and firefighters endorsed my campaign, and oppose this recall. “This recall is a third fabricated attempt by a former councilmember who desperately wants to regain power. It’s a cynical effort to undo the results of a fair election just one year ago. Please watch the August 26 City Council meeting online and see for yourself. “This recall is nothing but lies and misrepresentation. The fake recall election will waste up to $250,000; enough to hire another police officer AND firefighter. “Arcadia is safe, our budget is balanced, and finally, our meetings are run efficiently and professionally. Help me continue to protect Arcadia. See Recall Page 19

Say no to recall,” Fu wrote. The former mayor and council member to whom Fu referred is April Verlato. In a mass email sent last week, Verlato challenged Fu’s assertions. “David Fu claims to have done the right thing. However, what he is accused of was acting inappropriate towards a colleague on City Council and then retaliating against her when she reported it,” Verlato wrote. “That’s not the right thing by anyone’s definition.” The recall’s draft petition is awaiting approval form the city and county to start collecting required 1,600-plus signatures within 90 days. Recall proponents say their effort stems from Fu’s alleged “pattern of retaliation, misuse of authority, fiscal recklessness, and disregard for the City Charter,” according to the campaign’s notice of intent. According to Verlato, Fu’s recall response avoided “responding to the subject of trying to remove the Mayor from her position and how that stance was in direct conflict with the City Charter.” Verlato also challenged the level of opposition to the recall that Fu mentioned in his formal response and alluded to former Mayor and Councilman Sho Tay’s alleged role in the censure effort. “He had to campaign for support and former councilmember Sho Tay had to post in all his WeChat rooms slanderous remarks about the Mayor in order to get the handful of people to come out and claim to want to remove Mayor Kwan,” Verlato wrote. “No one came to a council meeting or wrote an email demanding the removal of Mayor Kwan prior to Councilman David Fu

Foothill Gold Line expects major milestones in 2026 By Staff

he Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority this year saw the 9-mile, four-station Glendora to Pomona project segment reach substantial completion on time and on budget – the third Foothill Gold Line segment to do so – prior to its turnover to Metro for the opening of passenger service. The Construction Authority is now readying for the next extension from Pomona to Claremont for construction. On Jan. 3, 2025, after five years of design and construction, the Glendora to Pomona project segment reached substantial completion on time and on budget. The project added new stations to the Metro A Line system in the cities of Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne and Pomona. Following substantial completion, the project was turned over to Metro, who carried out final testing, training and prerevenue operations before opening the extension for passenger service on Sept. 19, 2025. In total, 23 of the 25 planned Foothill Gold Line stations from Los Angeles to

Montclair are now complete and operational. “This year, the San Gabriel Valley didn’t just gain new tracks; it gained a new future,” stated Foothill Gold Line Board Chair and Claremont Vice Mayor Ed Reece. “By connecting Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, and Pomona to the rest of Los Angeles County, we’ve opened doors to jobs, education, and housing that were previously out of reach for many. This is a generational shift in how our residents will live, work, and thrive.” And, despite challenges, 2025 also saw the Construction Authority make progress on the next Foothill Gold Line project. Following multiple concerns that arose early in 2025 from the then-ongoing procurement to hire a designbuilder for the project, the Construction Authority board of directors made the decision to cancel that initial procurement and adopt the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) delivery method. That new delivery method required the agency to develop a plan to procure a design/engineering

team first and then separately a construction manager; the design/engineering procurement was initiated in June and the construction manager procurement in October. Initially inclusive of the remaining Foothill Gold Line system from Pomona to Montclair, both procurements were adjusted late in the year to focus on the Los Angeles County portion after the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) board of directors decided in September to remove local funding for the portion of the project in San Bernardino County. With that decision, and the Metro board’s decision in late 2024 to award $798 million to complete the portion of the project in Los Angeles County, the Construction Authority amended the ongoing procurements at the end of the year to focus on the Pomona to Claremont project and expects to hire both teams in the coming months. Looking ahead to 2026, the Construction Authority is on schedule to complete the procurement processes for the Pomona to Claremont

project and initiate work with the winning design/ engineering and construction manager teams. In January, the Construction Authority expects to award the design/engineering services contract, and in May award the construction manager contract. While some preconstruction activities may begin in 2026, the year will

be dedicated to preparing the final design/engineering drawings for the project. Major construction on the Pomona to Claremont project is expected to begin in 2027, with project completion expected in 2031. “We are moving into construction on the Pomona to Claremont segment thanks to Metro’s unwaver-

ing investment and partnership,” added Reece. “However, our eyes remain fixed on the finish line: Montclair. Completing these final two stations is essential for regional mobility, and I am confident that by working with our San Bernardino County partners, we will make 2026 a year of major breakthroughs.”

Academy Museum to hold screening of ‘The Greatest Story Ever Told’ with guest Guillermo Del Toro By Staff

he George Stevens Lecture on Directing presents the premiere screening of the 4K restoration of “The Greatest Story Ever Told” (1965) at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on Jan. 17 with special guest, three-time Oscar-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro. The George Stevens Lecture series was established in 1982 in honor of the legendary director. For the 2026 edition, del Toro joins the Academy Museum before the screening to speak about Stevens, the restoration of “The Greatest Story Ever Told,” and the impact of the film. Amazon MGM Studios initiated the restoration of “The Greatest Story Ever Told” for the film’s 60th anniversary. The restoration was done in collaboration with George Stevens, Jr. and The Film Foundation headed by Martin Scorsese. Del Toro is a member of the Foundation board.

nicolor negative, Kostas Theodosiou, senior colorist at FotoKem, made 8K scans and digitally restored the film with keen appreciation for the film’s artistic quality. Audio restoration was made utilizing original six-track print masters and stems, digitally remastered in Dolby Atmos to preserve

the original 70mm format channel configuration. The film, directed by two-time Oscar-winner Stevens (“A Place in the Sun,” “Giant”), is a lavishly produced and thoughtful look at the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, with Max von Sydow making his U.S. film debut in a subtly

powerful lead performance. The lengthy location filming in the American Southwest had its share of problems, including unseasonal weather and the death of the film’s cinematographer, William C. Mellor, but the result was one of Stevens’s most ambitious and heartfelt projects, avoiding the

sensationalism of most Hollywood Biblical epics while supporting von Sydow with an impressive cast that included Charlton Heston, Claude Rains, Dorothy Maguire, Jose Ferrer, Sidney Poitier, David McCallum, Martin Landau, Donald Pleasance, Carroll Baker, Telly Savalas, Shelley

Winters, Ed Wynn and Van Heflin. The film received five Oscar nominations including Mellor and Loyal Griggs for cinematography. The Academy Museum has previously hosted the lecture with guests Christopher Nolan for a screening of “Shane” (1953) and Annette Bening for a screening of “The More the Merrier” (1943). Other past participants in The George Stevens Lecture series include Robert Benton, James Mangold, Gregory Nava, Sidney Poitier, Steven Spielberg, and Robin Swicord. The 2 p.m. lecture and screening will mark the 60th Anniversary of “The Greatest Story Ever Told.” The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures is located at 6067 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles. Tickets to the Academy Museum are available only through advance online reservations via the Academy Museum’s website (https://www.academymuseum.org/en) and mobile app. Admission to daytime film screening is $5.

or many of us, marketing emails are reminders to unsubscribe rather than take advantage of whatever massive savings they promise. Getting rid of the email flood might not just declutter your inbox: It could make you more creative. That’s because decluttering—your bedroom, living room, home office, or inbox—is a welldocumented way to unlock your creative potential. Freeing up your physical space also makes room in your head for more creative ideas. While clutter is often associated with more creative minds, research shows actual creative work is more productive in organized spaces. To share innovative ways to tap your best work, Assembly compiled a list of organizational strategies to boost creativity from expert sources. Journaling There are eight types of journals that may boost creativity, according to Kaiser Permanente. You can write about dreams, food, fitness activities, the day’s events, or your to-do list. You can sketch things you’ve seen and ideas you’ve had, write freely in a stream-ofconsciousness journal, or reflect on the things, people, and things that inspire a feeling of gratitude. Each of these can boost creativity in different ways, including improving your writing skills and recording moments of inspiration. They can also help clear your head and process thoughts and feelings, which lets you concentrate on other topics—including what you’re going to create next. To start journaling, buy a notebook, and write without stopping for a set amount of time each day. Don’t forget to date each entry, so you can see how you, and your ideas, have changed over time. You can also find inspiration by reading the journals of respected artists or writers, such as Frida Kahlo or Sylvia Plath. Try out the Bullet Journal method of layering multiple types of journaling on top of each other to avoid losing track of your ideas and plans. Mind map Mind mapping, showing connections between different ideas, is another strategy to help boost creativity. It might spark new ideas or just a new understanding of long-studied concepts, according to a 2018 study

in the Classroom Action Research Journal. Mind mapping takes you out of linear thinking, freeing you to jump to other ideas and connect them. Mind maps can add another dimension to regular note-taking. You can build mind maps for individual projects or as your primary note-taking technique. To build a mind map, start with a central idea in the middle of a piece of paper. Then write down and connect other related ideas or subtopics from what you already know. Do more research into the topic and add what you learn. Continue tying ideas together and labeling new elements that form part of the picture. What you make might look like a mess, but it will offer a fresh perspective that can spark new ideas and reveal connections and ways of thinking that might surprise you. Second brain You might have found yourself wishing for a second brain to keep track of everything you’re supposed to know, deal with, and remember. With some effort, you can build one for yourself—on the internet, not in a lab. A second brain, formally referred to as a personal knowledge management system, helps boost creativity by storing your existing knowledge outside your first brain, freeing up the gray matter to go beyond recording and retrieving information. It’s different than simply going to Google

or other sites every time you want to find something because it’s built specifically for you. Tiago Forte, who invented the second brain concept, suggests his method of storing your personal information will allow you to: “find anything you’ve learned, touched, or thought about in the past within seconds ... [s]ave your best thinking, so you don’t have to do it again; ... [and] turn work ‘off’ and relax, knowing you have a trusted system keeping track of all the details.” The best systems for second brains include multiple organizational methods, storage for different media types—including voice notes and photos, and desktop and mobile versions. Goal setting Outlining what you’re going to do and how you’ll do it gives your brain more room to be creative. Business coaching service Lucemi Consulting supports setting goals because it helps increase focus and motivation while boosting productivity. Setting goals may offer more time for creative thinking or projects, according to a 2022 academic study. Researchers found that an individual is able to engage with more creative thinking when a specific goal is laid out, whereas they can be distracted, be less creative, and go down unproductive rabbit holes without one. Improving your focus makes you more creative by giving you deadlines and

measuring your progress. Thought leader Amy Climer often discusses goal-setting as a creativity tool and recommends that writing down goals can make them more real. Decluttering Sensory overload can cripple the flow of ideas and slash productivity. Decluttering can help foster creativity. Whether you declutter your physical or digital workspace—like those unread browser tabs or your notes—these efforts can reduce the mental load you spend on finding and remembering things. That frees up time and brain energy to get stuff done. Marie Kondo, a leading expert in decluttering for optimizing creativity, recommends discarding anything that does not “spark joy” and organizing what little remains in a clear, functional way. That means paying attention to where an item is placed in a room or digital space to ensure it leaves a clear space for creative thinking and action. The key to addressing clutter, ultimately, is up to you. Creativity coach Beth Ann Dailey recommends not keeping more than you need nor getting rid of more than you’re comfortable with— some people function well in a bit of chaos, so Dailey suggests finding what works for you.

California study: Sofa swap slashes harmful chemical level in your body

California advocates fight for more oversight of AI

By Suzanne Potter, Public News Service

f you have a couch built before 2014, you might want to hit the afterChristmas sales to look for a new one, because a new study showed replacing an old sofa can lower the level of toxic chemicals in your body. In 2014, California changed the standards so flame retardants were no longer needed in the foam used in couches, toys and cars. Arlene Blum, executive director of the Green Science Policy Institute and research associate in cell and molecular biology at the University of California-Berkeley, said the data show the concentration of flame-retardant chemicals in people’s blood dropped by half within 15 months after they got rid of the old furniture. “There have been a lot of epidemiology studies finding that the average American child has lost an average of four IQ points because of one flame retardant that was used, and that people with the highest levels of that flame retardant are

four times as likely to die of cancer,” Blum reported. Even though California made the change 11 years ago, and the federal government followed suit in 2021, people are still exposed to harmful dust from untold numbers of older sofas and chairs made before the rules changed. Blum noted if you cannot afford to get rid of your furniture, you can swap out the foam or at least take

extra care to limit toxic dust. “You want to really keep down the dust in your house by vacuuming with a HEPA filter, wet mopping,” Blum recommended. “Because dust is what really exposes the inhabitants to the harmful flame retardants from their furniture.” The type of chemicals at issue in this study are called PBDEs, which stands for polybrominated diphenyl ethers.

ixty-four groups representing causes related to civil rights, consumer advocacy and tech accountability are banding together to fight deregulation of the artificial intelligence industry. The Tech Equity Collaborative has signed a letter to members of Congress, opposing a bill that would allow financial firms to deploy artificial intelligence without regulatory oversight or enforcement by requesting a “waiver in the interest of innovation.” Tina Rosales-Torres, policy advocate and attorney for the Western Center on Law and Poverty, said Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is pushing a similar measure, called the Sandbox Act, that would apply to all sectors, not just finance.

“If the federal government gets their way with these preemption laws, then the State of California cannot stop AI companies from using individual data however they want, or even stop AI companies from raising the cost of living from bread to housing,” she contended. President Donald Trump recently issued an executive order declaring that federal AI policy would preempt state laws. Opponents say AI must be regulated to protect people’s privacy and make sure AI powered systems don’t contribute to racial inequities like access to housing or credit. Rosales-Torres said there are many examples of companies using AI to manipulate prices.

“There were cases of Uber charging different prices for different people based on where they were, the time of day, whether their phone battery was full or lower,” she continued. “So we’re trying to stop that, but with the federal laws, we wouldn’t be able to.” In 2022, the Department of Justice sued Facebook, alleging the company was targeting ads for housing based on what online history revealed about a user’s race or current neighborhood. Last month, Instacart said it would stop using an AI powered tool that allowed the grocery app to charge different prices for the same item, following an investigation by Consumer Reports.

The core finding reveals that 56% of vacationers now consider the feeling of having learned something new crucial to a trip’s success, a sentiment that explains why 87% believe cultural journeys offer far greater long-term value than beach holidays. This quest for meaning has crowned Europe the destination of choice, as travelers prioritize deepening their understanding of history, art, and authentic local traditions over simple relaxation. Methodology To understand how Americans approach vacation planning and destination preferences, JayWay Travel surveyed 1,000 adults across the United States who have traveled for leisure in the past two years or plan to travel in 2025. Participants answered a series of questions about their attitudes toward cultural experiences, personal growth, and perceived value when comparing European vacations to traditional beach or resort trips. Responses were analyzed by demographic groups, including age, gender, income, and generation, to identify emerging trends and shifts in traveler behavior.

10 community service projects to do as a team by Zanade Mann, Stacker

hen coworkers come together to participate in community service projects, it doesn’t only engage employees with social good and help to revitalize neighborhoods; doing community service with colleagues has also been shown to increase employees’ commitment to their places of work and help with retention and recruitment. Whether you work with a small group or within a large department, there are countless opportunities to get involved with a common cause. According to Americorp’s most recent data from 2019, 77.9 million Americans (or roughly 30% of the population) volunteered through or for an organization or association that year. But there are plenty of ways to contribute to communitybased initiatives on your own as well. To help determine how to get started, Pyn compiled a list of 10 ideas for community service projects that companies, organizations, and other groups can do together to bond while helping to give back to their communities. Keep reading to discover 10 community service projects you can do as a team while bolstering company culture. Donation drive Particularly around the holidays, donation drives can help many people in need. If you want to start a community drive from scratch, partnering with a local or national organization like Toys for Tots may be easier, which supports children and families. National organizations can also be a great option for remote employees who may be living in different areas of the country. You can also connect with local business owners to spread the word and potentially sponsor donation drives. Using social media and free fundraising tools can grow your project, and many toolkits are available to help get your group started. Tree planting and pruning

Planting trees helps to beautify communities while removing carbon from the atmosphere, providing cooling shade, aiding in water retention and habitat formation, and helping those living in the community see the immediate benefits of their efforts. Tree-planting campaigns can be found from coast to coast, so it’s a great teambuilding activity for remote workers too. To tap into larger organizations for inspiration and a common goal, look to national campaigns such as the Nature Conservancy’s Plant a Billion Trees effort. At a more local level, you may consider partnering with your parks and recreation department to get started planting trees in your community. Charity walk Charity walks have become a mainstream way for nonprofit organizations to fundraise around specific causes and social issues. Susan G. Komen’s Race for a Cure, which benefits finding a cure for breast cancer, is one popular choice. It may be helpful to ask colleagues, community members, and groups what causes or social issues they are interested in. Then, you can do some research to determine larger organiza-

tions that host charity walks benefiting those causes. If nothing fits the bill exactly, you can always get creative and start your own charity walk. It can be fun to pick a route and decide which themes to focus on. And remember, charity walks don’t have to be done in one location—people can participate on the same day or set a goal for the same distance from wherever they live. Grocery and meal packaging At some point in 2021, 10.2% of U.S. households were food insecure, according to the Department of Agriculture. Many organizations, such as Feeding America, are working to end hunger in the U.S. You and your colleagues could reach out to local pantries to volunteer your time packing meals, or your group could host a food drive themselves. Hosting a food drive activates community members and local businesses to donate to food pantries, building awareness of the community’s needs. Contact local places of worship to spread the word about your food drive. Trash cleanup Neighborhood trash cleanups are popular community service activities often

celebrated around Earth Day, but they can be done any time of year. These initiatives can revitalize and beautify neighborhoods while encouraging pride in people’s communities. Green spaces also have myriad mental health benefits, demonstrating the need to protect and maintain these areas. Always be mindful about checking local rules around potential permits required to clean a public area and regulations around trash dropoff and pick-up, as you never know what you may collect during a community cleanup event. You can use free tools and resources from Earth Day to get started hosting a community trash cleanup event. Career day A career day—where volunteers participate in schools or via Zoom calls to speak about their occupations—can play an important role in your community. It can help young people find inspiration about vocations they didn’t know about and help other folks discover new professional paths. If you find that a local school doesn’t have a career day planned, you can seize the opportunity to design your own with the help of your coworkers or neigh-

bors. Consider inviting local business owners and leaders in their respective fields to participate and give insights into what they do daily at work. Blood drive With someone in the U.S. needing blood or platelets every 2 seconds, according to data from the American Red Cross, hosting a blood drive can be a great way to support people in your neighborhood with immediate, urgent needs. The Red Cross takes the guesswork out of hosting a successful blood drive, with guidance on everything from what a host must provide to sending reminders to participants. The organization will send phlebotomy facilitators to the event for the actual blood draws, but you can help by keeping records of attendees, managing appointments, setup, and cleanup. Stair climb The National First Responders Fund has annual events called stair climbs that support first responders and show solidarity with those who risk their lives each day to protect others. This exercise-based, community-building initiative encourages participants to bond and set goals.

DO YOU WANT TO START A BUSINESS? GO TO FILEDBA.COM

Stair climbing can be done anywhere, with an unlimited number of participants, and in different locations. You can plan stair climbs around monthly or annual themes to extend your activities beyond a one-time event. Care packages Care packages have a long history of providing food and other basic necessities to families in need. There are people in every town who would benefit from care packages and organizations are always looking for local community members to help stock, package, and deliver the goods. Your group of volunteers can seamlessly partner with local food pantries, houses of worship, homeless shelters, and the like to put together care packages for area residents. You can also reach out to organizations in your area to find out what specific items might be of need. With that information, you can organize your own coalition of people to put together and deliver care packages on your own. Community garden Community gardens yield fresh produce for local residents and donations to area food pantries and soup kitchens. These community spaces welcome volunteers during the growing season, and getting involved is as simple as reaching out on behalf of your group and scheduling a time or times to help. For a larger, more longterm project, consider starting a community garden on behalf of your company and find coworkers willing to work the gardens during the growing season. These gardens can be started at a shared location, such as a school, fire department, religious center, or on property owned by your place of business.

Fed rate cuts: Are they good or bad for home buyers? By Nathan Golden for Better via Stacker

ou can count on it: When the Federal Reserve changes its interest rate, news headlines about mortgage rates will follow. This cycle unfolds up to eight times a year, so many home shoppers get the idea that the Fed regulates mortgage rates. Fed decisions affect mortgage rates, but the Fed doesn’t control mortgage rates directly. In fact, as Better discusses here, the Fed’s actions can have unpredictable effects on the rates new home buyers pay on their mortgage loans. Does the Fed set mortgage interest rates? The Federal Reserve is the most powerful financial institution in the U.S., and its decisions reverberate throughout the global economy, including the mortgage market. When the Fed adjusts rates, it’s changing the Federal Funds Rate, which is the overnight interest rate banks charge each other when they lend reserve funds to manage their cash flow. This rate influences short-term borrowing costs throughout the economy, including rates on credit cards, auto loans, and home equity lines of credit (HELOCs). But 30-year fixed mortgage rates are long-term rates. They’re shaped mostly by broader financial markets, not by the Fed’s policy committee. What actually drives 30-year mortgage rates Mortgage rates are closely tied to: - U.S. Treasury yields, especially the 10-year Treasury. - The price of mortgagebacked securities (MBS). - Inflation and jobs data. - Predictions about future economic growth. - Demand for U.S. bonds globally. - Risk premiums required by investors. All this affects mortgage rates because a single home loan doesn’t exist in an economic vacuum. After a borrower closes a mortgage loan to buy a primary residence, the lender will often sell this loan into the secondary market. Multiple mortgage loans get combined into mortgagebacked securities, a financial asset investors can buy and sell. Investors who buy mortgage-backed securities expect returns that compensate them for inflation risk, interest-rate risk, and the chance borrowers refinance earlier than

expected. Because of this expectation, mortgage rates come with future risks and payoffs already built into their pricing. The rate you pay on a home loan this month reflects what investors believe will happen to inflation, economic growth, and Fed policy over the next few years. How do mortgage rates react when the Fed lowers its rate? When the Fed cuts the Federal Funds Rate, as it did three times between September and December, many borrowers expect mortgage rates to fall immediately. Sometimes rates do fall, but not always. One reason for this: The mortgage markets have usually priced in the Fed cut before it happens. If investors expect the Fed to lower its rates, they react to that expectation before it happens. That’s why Treasury yields and mortgage rates often fall before the official announcement from the Fed. When the Fed does act, mortgage rates may barely move, or they may even rise if the cut was smaller than markets expected. Why mortgage rates sometimes rise after a Fed cut Mortgage rates can increase after a Fed rate cut if: - Inflation still looks stubborn. - Employment data is strong.

- Investors expect rates to rise again later. - Bond markets sell off due to higher demand for stocks. When one or more of these market forces line up, investors may expect higher yields on long-term bonds. This pushes mortgage rates upward even as short-term rates fall. Comments from the Fed chair about the future of the economy can also cause a mortgage rate increase. For example, after the 0.25% cut in October, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said more cuts in December were not a foregone conclusion. Markets reacted with a temporary mortgage rate increase, despite the Fed rate cut. A line graph showing how the U.S. weekly average mortgage rates have changed from late 2023 to December 2025. Again, mortgage rates reflect the future outlook of the economy, not its present conditions. Will mortgage rates keep falling in the wake of the Fed’s 2025 cuts? The Federal Reserve lowered the Federal Funds Rate by 0.25% three times during the last four months of 2025. Investors anticipated each of these cuts, and they were proven right each time the Fed’s governors gathered for a meeting. In the months leading up to the Fed’s late-2025

rate-cutting campaign, mortgage rates had already started to adjust downward as investors priced in slower economic growth. By the time policymakers acted, much of the impact had already been absorbed by financial markets. This dynamic helps explain why mortgage rates did not plunge dramatically even as the Fed cut its benchmark rate by a total of 0.75% between September and December. As for 2026? Many economists think rates could continue their gradual decline, possibly falling below 6% for the first time since September of 2022. Of course, no one knows about future economic changes that could change these forecasts. How are tariffs and other instability affecting mortgage rates? Mortgage rates follow a reasonably predictable cycle: - A strong economic outlook pushes mortgage rates higher. - A weak economic outlook puts downward pressure on mortgage rates. What’s harder to explain is how mortgage rates react to uncertainty about the future, and uncertainty has been the hallmark of the 2020s. First, the COVID-19 pandemic interrupted what may have been a period of rising mortgage rates in 2020 and 2021. Instead, as the economy shut down, mortgage rates set historic

lows. Then, inflation set in, sparking an aggressive campaign of rate increases by the Fed in 2022 and 2023. Now, during the second Trump administration, tariffs have added upward pressure on pricing, causing worries about inflation. If investors believe tariffs will keep inflation above the Fed’s target, mortgage rates may remain about the same even during the Fed’s rate-cutting cycle that’s now underway. Along with tariffs, economic instability can come from several areas. Labor markets and wage growth Strong wage growth is good for households, but it can also worry bond markets. If wages rise faster than productivity, inflation risks increase. This can keep mortgage rates elevated, regardless of what the Fed does in the short term. Government borrowing and bond supply Large federal deficits translate into more bonds in the marketplace. This elevated supply can push yields higher. Mortgage rates often rise alongside Treasury yields in these conditions. Global instability Overseas investors also affect U.S. mortgage rates. Economic instability abroad can push more money into the relative safety of U.S. bonds, lowering mortgage rates. Strong growth globally can pull capital away from U.S.

bonds, raising rates. What Will Happen to Mortgage Rates in 2026? No one can predict mortgage rates with certainty, but we can focus on the forces that are likely to shape rates. If economic growth cools in 2026: - Inflation pressures may ease. - Bond yields could drift lower. - Mortgage rates may gradually decline. This could represent a normalization scenario rather than a dramatic rate drop. Why a return to ultralow rates is unlikely The sub-3% mortgage rates seen earlier in the decade were a product of extraordinary conditions: - Near-zero short-term rates. - Massive Fed bondbuying programs. Pandemic-driven economic shocks. Unless we experience a severe recession or financial crisis, mortgage rates are unlikely to return to those levels. What all this means for borrowers How do everyday home buyers navigate this global tapestry of forces that shapes mortgage rates? Rarely by reacting to the Fed’s moves, regardless of what news headlines say. Instead, home buyers and refinancing homeowners can create their own affordability by controlling what they can control: their personal finances. The news reports average mortgage rates. A borrower’s personal finances pinpoint where their rate will fall within the context of this average rate. Borrowers with: - Larger down payments (or more home equity for refinancers) - Higher credit scores - Lower monthly debts - Job stability These borrowers can often qualify for lower-thanaverage mortgage rates, which can lead to lower monthly payments. A mortgage calculator helps borrowers see how a monthly mortgage payment works. A mortgage preapproval can show how your personal finances work together with global economic forces to shape your rate. This story was produced by Better and reviewed and distributed by Stacker.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (855) 3133319 or visit this Internet website www. clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 138784-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 313-3319, or visit this internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 138784-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Pasadena City Notices NOTICE OF SOLICITATION OF APPLICATIONS TO FILL AN AT LARGE MEMBER VACANCY FOR AN UNEXPIRED TERM ON THE PASADENA RENTAL HOUSING BOARD In accordance with Pasadena City Charter, Section 1811, a Pasadena Rental Housing Board has been established to administer and enforce Article XVIII of the City Charter, “The Pasadena Fair and Equitable Housing Charter Amendment”. The Board is comprised of eleven (11) members consisting of seven (7) Tenant Members, and four (4) At Large Members. In addition, there are two (2) alternates, one serving as the alternate for the Tenant Members and one serving as the alternate for the At Large Members. Notice is hereby given that there is an unscheduled vacancy in one of the At Large Member seats resulting from the resignation of Arnold Siegel. The Pasadena City Council will begin soliciting applications from individuals seeking to fill this vacancy on Wednesday, January 7, 2026 to serve the remaining balance of the unexpired term, with the term set to end on May 24, 2027. Pursuant to City Charter Section 1811(a), At Large Members shall be appointed by the City Council, and may reside in any district of Pasadena, may or may not be Tenants, and may or may not have Material Interest in Rental Property. With regard to Material Interests in Rental Property, while the City Charter is permissive in allowing At Large Members to own rental property, California’s Conflict of Interest regulations for public officials currently contain separate standards. As a result, property owners with a prescribed financial interest in 4 or more rental units in the City of Pasadena might not be able to freely participate in all matters that come before the Pasadena Rental Housing Board. Interested applicants in such a position should consult with their legal counsel prior to submitting an application. The Board’s duties include making rules and regulations to implement Article XVIII of the City Charter, setting allowable rent increases, determining and publicizing the Annual General Adjustment in rents, appointing hearing officers, conducting hearings on petitions for rent adjustments for individual properties, establishing a budget, pursuing civil remedies against those who violate Article XVIII of the City Charter, holding public hearings, establishing a schedule of penalties for violations of Article XVIII of the City Charter, and establishing and maintaining a registry of rental housing in Pasadena. The City encourages interested residents to apply for appointment to the Board. In addition to a completed application, applicants must circulate a nomination petition and gather a minimum of 25 qualified signatures from residents living in the same Pasadena Council District as the applicant. A declaration of financial interests of the applicant, and of their Extended Family members, is also required and will be a public record. Nomination petitions and application materials are available in the City Clerk’s Office. The application period for this appointment will open on Wednesday, January 7, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. with a deadline to submit forms by Thursday, March 5, 2026 by 5:00 p.m. Application forms can be obtained by contacting the Pasadena City Clerk’s Office during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. (appointments recommended): City of Pasadena, Office of the City Clerk 100 North Garfield Avenue, Room S228 Pasadena, California 91101 (626) 744-4124, cityclerk@cityofpasadena.net Mark Jomsky City Clerk To be Published and Posted: Monday, January 5, 2026 PASADENA PRESS

Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $695,825.22 If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (855) 3133319 or visit this Internet website www. clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 105906-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 313-3319, or visit this internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 105906-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

The following statements; NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS and NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER are statutory notices for all one to four single family residences and a courtesy notice for all other types of properties. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (916) 939-0772 or visit this Internet Website http://www.nationwideposting. com/, using the file number assigned to this case 201-019759. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or

on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (916) 939-0772, or visit this internet website http://www.nationwideposting.com/, using the file number assigned to this case 201-019759 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.

bringing the motion for it.” On Fu’s union support, Verlato wrote, “Councilman Fu wants to play up the support he has of the unions, the same unions that jockeyed and campaigned for a pay raise that resulted in a 20% increase in employee costs in the first year of the new contract. Mayor Kwan and I voted against these contracts in 2024 because they resulted in a deficit budget. “He claims in his letter that the recall will cost $250,000,” Verlato continued. “However, the City Manager told City Council if the recall is added to the June 2026 primary, it will only cost approximately

$50,000. “And if the City budget was truly balanced and there was enough money, Council could already vote to add sworn officer positions,” Verlato wrote. City Manager Dominic Lazzaretto said Verlato “is quoting me using outdated information” and Fu’s $250,000 estimate “is more accurate.” In an email to HeySoCal. com, Lazzaretto said, “I sent the Council a description of the recall process when the first notice was filed. In that, I said that we had asked the County for a quote, but in the meantime I would estimate that a stand alone election could cost upwards

of $50,000, with a combined election costing less. “The next week, we received the estimate from the County elections officials, who said a stand alone election would cost ‘at least’ $250,000,” Lazzaretto said. “We sent that to the Council as well. The $250,000 if the most up-todate estimate.” Fu is a first-term council member elected in November 2024 and represents Council District 1. The district extends northward from Duarte Road into hillside communities above Foothill Boulevard, with Santa Anita and North Fifth avenues serving as western and eastern borders.

Metro solicits community feedback for proposed 8-mile river path By Jose Herrera, City News Service

etro is seeking public comment for the draft environmental impact report on a proposed eight-mile bike and walking path along the LA River between Elysian Valley and Maywood through downtown Los Angeles and Vernon, officials said Tuesday. Earlier this month, the transit agency released the draft EIR and began a 47-day public comment period that will end on Feb. 2. Los Angeles County residents and stakeholders are being asked to submit verbal and written comments about the project. The eight-mile segment is expected to serve Elysian Valley, Cypress Park, Lincoln Heights, Chinatown, downtown LA, the Arts District, Boyle Heights, Vernon and Maywood. It’s part of the larger 32-mile LA River Path Project that aims to connect the San Fernando Valley with Long Beach. “Projects like the LA River Path improve quality of life and provide mobility choices, foster connection and encourage more active lifestyles, all important goals as we look to build a transportation network

worthy of a world- class city,” Metro Board Chair and Whittier Councilman Fernando Dutra said in a statement. Previously, Metro anticipated completion of the eight-mile stretch in 2027, just in time for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, but officials pushed that timeline back a couple years as they finalize the EIR. The Los Angeles River Path Project is funded by Measure M, a 2016 voterapproved sales tax for transportation and infrastructure initiatives, as well as outside sources. Initially, the eight-mile river path was projected to cost $365 million, though now it’s likely to be more than $1 billion due to an increase in construction costs, among other issues. Capital cost estimates for the project are around $595 million for a 3.2-mile northern segment, $688 million for a five-mile southern segment, and approximately $1 billion to $1.2 billion for the full eightmile segment, depending

on the alternative options selected, according to Metro. “When Measure M was passed in 2016, the level of engineering and design for this project was not significant and based on other portions of the existing LA River Bike Path with less physical constraints. After Metro took steps to further design the project and coordinate with other agencies, a more detailed and realistic project timeline was developed,” Metro said in a statement regarding the project. “Since Metro does not own the majority of the right of way for this project, exceptional coordination with several agency stakeholders is required. Further coordination with these agency stakeholders is required to continue to advance the project, including determining who will operate and maintain the project,” Metro’s statement continued. Alternative options for the project were informed by community and stakeSee Metro Page 20

‘Richard III’ manipulates, marries and murders a path to the top at A Noise Within By Staff

mbition knows no mercy. Guillermo Cienfuegos returns to A Noise Within to direct a streamlined, high-velocity take on William Shakespeare’s “Richard lll,” re-set in 1970s Britain. Starring Ann Noble as the schemer audiences love to hate, the production runs Feb. 14 through March 8 at the company’s home in Pasadena. Low-priced previews begin Feb. 8. Charismatic and contemptible in equal measure, burdened by physical challenges and consumed by ambition, Richard claws his way to the crown with unrelenting ferocity, removing all obstacles, and all people, in his path. Manipulating, marrying and murdering his way to the top with charm and zeal, Richard turns the audience into his unwitting accomplice: we root for him even as his plans grow ever more monstrous. “Richard III is the original Game of Thrones,” notes Cienfuegos. “Anyone expecting a dusty, Shakespearean history is going to be very surprised. This production will feel more cinematic, like a Martin Scorsese or a Quentin Tarantino film, and move like a freight train. A

short recap at the top of the show will orient the audience so they can focus fully on Richard’s ruthless pursuit of

speare’s most darkly comic characters.” Performances of “Richard lll” take place Feb. 14 through

Metro holder input -- with “access” as the top priority. While early feasibility studies placed the path entirely along the LA River’s west bank and mostly at the bottom of the channel, all current alternatives now include segments that are either cut along the channel embankment or on both the west and east banks that are linked by new bike and pedestrian-only bridges, according to Metro. Most communities that stand to benefit from the project are located on the east bank and would not be adequately served by a west-bank-only alignment, officials said. Additionally, residents helped with the selection of access points and key destinations. The eightmile river path’s width

was increased to 16-20 feet from what was originally a 12-foot path after community members raised concerns about not having enough space for cyclists and pedestrians. With limited available right-of-way along the riverbank, all alternatives incorporate elevated, incised and top-of-bank segments along the highly constrained corridor, according to Metro. A bottom-of-the-channel alternative was considered but not carried further because it failed to meet key goals for safety, access, sustainability and efficient mobility. Other concerns the draft EIR address include floodrelated safety risks and closures, emergency access, length and grade of ramps and lighting and amenities.

READERS’ CHOICE 2025 IS HERE

Significant permitting and construction challenges also impacted design choices, as the path is expected to traverse private and public property. During the EIR process, Metro is expected to identify an agency to construct, operate and maintain the river path before the project is approved and the design is advanced. The final EIR is expected to be released later in 2026 or in 2027, according to the transit agency. Metro’s board of directors is expected to give approval for the design, EIR, and the outside agency that will manage the project before any construction can begin. Metro will conduct a series of public hearings on the project’s draft EIR on the following days:

-- Jan. 21, 6:30-7:30 p.m., Lincoln Heights Senior Center, 2323 Workman St.; -- Jan. 27, 6-8 p.m., Maywood Center for Enriched Studies, 5800 King Ave.; -- Jan. 29, 6-8 p.m., a virtual meeting via Zoom, which can be joined at https:// bit.ly/larp_deir, and a dial-in option: 833 584 0276, using webinar ID: 833 2236 2142; and -- Jan. 31, 10 a.m.-noon, Felicitas and Gonzalo Mendez Senior High School, 1200 Plaza Del Sol E. Live Spanish interpretation will be available at all public hearings. Meetings are also accessible to individuals with disabilities. Other Americans with Disabilities Act accommodations and interpretation are available by calling 213-922-4710 at least 72 hours in advance.
