Two years ago, California hit a milestone decades in the making: Nearly every person in the state qualified for health insurance, regardless of immigration status and income, pushing the state’s insured rate to a record 95%. Now that progress is unravelling. https://cal.news/4wXhRet

Opinion | Proponents argue that presenting ID when voting deters fraud and maintains election integrity, but numerous studies have shown that voter fraud is astoundingly rare. https://cal.news/45hUZdg

Opinion | Prop. 45 benefits the state’s wealthiest and most powerful interests without offering any proof — or requiring any guarantees — that Californians won’t shoulder the costs. https://cal.news/4fL5sTg

A South Korean spacecraft has beamed back the first images of the crater a wayward SpaceX rocket stage punched into the moon. The Falcon 9’s upper stage slammed into the lunar surface Wednesday, Aug. 5. South Korea’s Danuri craft reached the area shortly afterward and made several passes from orbit.

The Korea Aerospace Research Institute put out the resulting frames Thursday. The pictures show a dark blotch where the booster struck, with dust and debris flung across the ground nearby. Officials at the Korean agency matched the new views against a NASA image of the same terrain taken Oct. 1, 2015.

The stage flew on the mission that ferried two commercial landers moonward last year. Gravity and solar activity nudged the spent booster onto a collision path, SpaceX said. It struck at 5,400 mph.

Musk’s company put Danuri in space to begin with, launching the orbiter in 2022 out of Cape Canaveral, Florida. NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is due to pass over the new crater next week for a closer look at the damage.

A South Korean satellite has captured the first pictures of the moon's fresh crash scene. The Danuri spacecraft flew over the impact site soon after a SpaceX rocket inadvertently plowed into the moon Wednesday.

Just a reminder that tonight from 6pm to 8pm, Three Rivers Democrats will be at Don and Brenda Nottoli Park for National Night Out!
Find our table/booth and stop by and say hello

Three Rivers Dems Members: Volunteer Opportunity at National Night Out

Hi Three Rivers Dems members,

Please join us for a fun community outreach and recruiting opportunity at the first National Night Out event for the Vineyard, Vintage Park, and Wild Hawk area.

The event will be held on Tuesday, August 4, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Don and Brenda Nottoli Park.

This is a great chance for Three Rivers Dems to meet local residents, talk with neighbors, and invite people to learn more about our club. We will have our club tent, pins, handouts, and a QR code people can scan if they are interested in joining or learning more.

We need a few club members to help at the table, greet people, answer basic questions, and help recruit new members. No special experience is needed. Just bring your friendly energy and willingness to talk with neighbors.

This will be a family-friendly evening with community partners, public safety resources, and food from My Lumpia Lady. Bring your family, bring a chair or blanket, and help us make a strong showing for Three Rivers Dems.

Please comment or message us if you can help.
