Opinion and Commentary By Donna Westfall – April 16, 2025

Assemblyman Rogers will be ready for your questions:

Wednesday, April 16th, 2025 – 11:30 am to 1:30 pm

Paragon Coffee House; 783 3rd St, Crescent City CA

Rogers beat Michael Greer at the polls by about 66% to 34%. In 2016 he served on the Santa Rosa City Council and then as Mayor from December 2020 – 2022. He replaced Jim Wood as Assemblyman. Wood announced his retirement in November 2024.

Rogers is a Democrat and known for these stances:

Universal free health care

Universal basic income for low income families

Proponent of policy responses on climate change

Proponent of public transportation

It sounds to me like the taxpaying public will probably be tapped more than wanted. Remember the slogan, “I never met a tax I didn’t like.”

Will he be in favor of the billion dollar boondoggle known as the high speed bullet train?

It would be helpful to meet the man and ask him any questions you may have.

That’s today 11:30 – 1:30.
