## Resource

On this week’s edition, our all-star panel of local journalists updates the Trump Administration’s real-life impacts on real people in Santa Barbara County, as Christina McDermott details how thousands of poor and elderly folks suddenly face food scarcity, and Ryan P. Cruz reprises his reporting on new data about federal immigration arrests locally - while Josh Molina has the latest as vote-counting slowly continues after Tuesday’s primary election. Plus: some rare good news about downtown Santa Barbara.
