Is Measure M a ballot stink bomb? Here is The Sacramento Bee's recommendation
The Sacramento City Unified School District is asking voters to approve Measure M, a $95-a-year parcel tax for special education and early intervention. The Bee Editorial Board recommends a “No” vote, citing the district’s fiscal instability and lack of a concrete spending plan. FULL STORY: Sacramento City Unified’s fiscal failures make Measure M a ballot stink bomb | Opinion Here are key takeaways: A budget swing that should alarm every parcel owner In June, Sacramento City Unified School District approved a budget projecting a $228.9 million deficit by the end of the 2026-27 school year. Three months later, in September, the district revised that projection to a $162,000 surplus for the same period. That is a $229 million turnaround in a single quarter — and the state’s fiscal watchdog is not buying it. As The Bee’s Chaewon Chung reported , “Michael Fine, CEO of the state-funded Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team, described the district’s projection as ‘absurd,’ saying it did not meet California school-district budgeting standards and pointing to what he called unreasonable assumptions about future funding.” Fine said, “no other district in the state that would count that.” When FCMAT — the agency California created specifically to vet

The Sacramento Bee's endorsement in the bitter Mai Vang–Doris Matsui race for Congress
The Bee endorses Sacramento City Councilmember Mai Vang over Doris Matsui for Congress What to Know The board frames the November race for California’s 7th Congressional District as a generational test for Democrats struggling to connect with frustrated voters. READ THE ENDORSEMENT: Doris Matsui vs. Mai Vang: The Bee’s choice in Sacramento’s hottest election | Opinion Here are key takeaways: A pattern Democrats keep repeating The case against Matsui is not just about Matsui. From California to New York, too many longtime Democrats are clinging to power, promoting their “experience” to voters who are frustrated with party leaders who lost the White House and Senate and failed to reclaim the House in 2024. Many of those leaders do not seem to grasp the disconnect between them and Democratic voters. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi still wants to run San Francisco politics rather than gracefully support the next generation. In the Senate, Chuck Schumer of New York shows no capacity to evolve with the times. In Sacramento, Matsui is hanging on. The contrast on the ballot An August debate — one Matsui did attend — underscored the choice. Matsui argued that her experience remains an asset, even as her party has
