For over a decade, Senator McGuire, students from Humboldt County’s high schools, and Food For People have partnered to put on the largest food drive on the North Coast. This year, we are proud to keep the tradition going. Food For People serves 21,000 people - 15% of Humboldt County households.

We’re on 🔥- but the good kind! This afternoon, Governor Newsom signed AB 1699, the Good Fire Act. It will expand the prescribed fire and cultural burns, clear unnecessary barriers to using fire to manage appropriate landscapes, and incorporate indigenous knowledge into land management practices.

This afternoon, the Governor signed AB 1601, which will allow the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors to consider a targeted cost of living adjustment for its lowest-paid retirees who have not seen an increase since 2008. These retirees have lost 50% of their purchasing power since the last increase.

Full night of ballot measures - first, I helped kick off the Yes on H campaign, which will reauthorize the Parks for All initiative that voters passed in 2018. Second, I presented on, and took questions on, all 13 state propositions at the Santa Rosa Democratic Club.

Yesterday, Governor Newsom vetoed AB 2494, our demonstration forests bill. The bill would have updated the management practices of state owned forests to better protect our iconic redwood trees and focus on the environmental benefits of forests while seeking co-management with local tribes.

Great showing of support tonight for the Santa Rosa Junior College. SRJC is a special place because this community leans in and supports the campus. Likewise, the campus community does so much for Sonoma County. I was glad I could do my small part helping support their November measure.

AB 1601 is headed to the Governor. The last cost of living adjustment for soco’s retirees was in 2008. Beneficiaries have lost more than 50% of their purchasing power due to inflation. This bill would allow the County to work with actuaries to offer a targeted COLA to its lowest paid retirees.

All evacuation notices near Hopland Have been downgraded to “warning”. The fire is nearly 900 acres, but with 30% containment. Grateful to Chief Gunn and everyone involved in the incredible response.

Chris Rogers @chrisrogersca.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
The Feliz fire is up to 840 acres, but the winds have started to die down and conditions are improving. 101 is back to two-way traffic. Will continue to monitor, but so far the fire response has done a good job of holding it.

Chris Rogers @chrisrogersca.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
Good update out of Mendocino - a strong coordinated response has started to result in some containment (5%) and 101 is open for 1-way controlled traffic. Fingers crossed the wind cooperates, but CalFire and local response has been tremendous.

Chris Rogers @chrisrogersca.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
CHP and CalTrans are now reporting road closures in place at Burke Hill Rd on the north and at 101/175 in the south. Previous evacuation warnings have been updated to mandatory orders through the area. If you are traveling on 101 and thought you would be going through that area, find another route.

Chris Rogers @chrisrogersca.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
A fast moving fire has started and is making its way towards Hopland from the west. An evacuation order has gone out for the area, and CalTrans anticipates closing 101 through that area in the next “hour or two”. Currently the Felix fire is about 200 acres with no containment.
