<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Californians, like all Americans, love breathing clean, healthy air. We relish that picture perfect moment: a clear view of the mountains or ocean, kids playing soccer or baseball, enjoying a picnic in the park on a warm day, or just a brisk walk with the dog.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; These are also the moments we’d like to forget — missed school or missed work due to bad air days, asthma and bronchial attacks and the associated costs to families, business, and the economy.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Por mucho tiempo la Agencia de Protección Ambiental, o EPA, ha protegido la salud y el bienestar de todos los estadounidenses, particularmente de las familias latinas. Desafortunadamente, los políticos conservadores lideran esfuerzos encaminados a atacar, retirar el financiamiento y en algunos casos incluso a abolir la EPA.</p>

   Old news but well worth repeating. The Democratic Party and it’s candidates are supposed to be about progressive politics but it seems like Chula Vista councilwoman Pamela Bensoussan missed the memo on that one.

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; It’s become a TV ritual: Every year on April 4, as Americans commemorate Martin Luther King’s death, we get perfunctory network news reports about “the slain civil rights leader.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; The remarkable thing about these reviews of King’s life is that several years — his last years — are totally missing, as if flushed down a memory hole.</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Las oportunidades en los Estados Unidos se van desvaneciendo como una gota de agua en el firmamento.</p>
