Mayor Liang Chao (Cupertino): “Almost every current & former mayor I’ve spoken with agrees — sales tax revenues are NOT the right way to fund local hospitals. It’s also unfair to communities like El Camino Healthcare District, whose property taxes already support hospitals.”

It’s unconscionable. The murderer’s violent criminal history was so bad that Cuba refused to accept him, yet he remained in the U.S. despite a final court order of removal. The fact this isn’t a bigger story shows how numb we’ve become to preventable violence. This has to end.
