Hwy. 1 reopened to through travel on Jan. 14, 2026, three years to the day since Paul’s Slide first closed the road. Repairs at Regent’s Slide, which left a stable slope above the roadway, were accomplished without worker injuries – significant given challenging site conditions.

Protecting rural voices in California. 🚨🌱 California Farm Bureau has announced its opposition to Proposition 50, a November ballot measure that would eliminate independent redistricting and hand map-drawing power back to politicians. Farm Bureau leaders warn that Prop 50 would eliminate two rural districts, divide farmland, weaken rural representation and diminish the voices of farmers and ranchers by moving districts to urban centers.

Farm Bureau worked to prevent a budget proposal to raise the #MillTax to 33.3 mill. Instead, the mill tax will increase to only 30 mill over four years, saving members $13 million and ensuring timely registrations for crop protection materials. cfbf.com/ByTheNumbers
