We are proud to release Vol. 9 of the Humphrey Public Affairs Review! Coming soon online. Shout out to Managing Editors, Carley Mossbrook-Addy and J. Ponder White for steering the ship this year. Thank you to our cover artist, for the great design inspired by Hubert Humphrey’s quote, “Freedom is hammered out on the anvil of discussion, dissent, and debate.”

California’s farmworkers—largely migrant Latino/a men, women, and even children—are particularly vulnerable to wildfire hazards because they work outdoors and are thus increasingly exposed to dangerous levels of smoke during each worsening wildfire season.
