  • A History of Mexican Workers on the Oxnard Plain 1930-1980
    LABOR, MIGRATION, AND ACTIVISM: A HISTORY OF MEXICAN WORKERS ON THE OXNARD PLAIN 1930-1980 By Louie Herrera Moreno III A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chicano/Latino Studies 2012 ABSTRACT LABOR, MIGRATION, AND ACTIVISM: A HISTORY OF MEXICAN WORKERS ON THE OXNARD PLAIN 1930-1980 By Louie Herrera Moreno III First and foremost, this dissertation focuses on the relationship between labor and migration in the development of the City of Oxnard and La Colonia neighborhood. Labor and migration on the Oxnard Plain have played an important part in shaping and constructing the Mexican working-class community and its relationship to the power structure of the city and the agri-business interests of Ventura County. This migration led to many conflicts between Mexicans and Whites. I focus on those conflicts and activism between 1930 and 1980. Secondly, this dissertation expands on early research conducted on Mexicans in Ventura County. The Oxnard Plain has been a key location of struggles for equality and justice. In those struggles, Mexican residents of Oxnard, the majority being working- class have played a key role in demanding better work conditions, housing, and wages. This dissertation continues the research of Tomas Almaguer, Frank P. Barajas, and Martha Menchaca, who focused on class, race, work, leisure, and conflict in Ventura County. Thirdly, this dissertation is connected to a broader history of Mexican workers in California. This dissertation is influenced by important research conducted by Carey McWilliams, Gilbert Gonzalez, Vicki Ruiz, and other historians on the relationship between labor, migration, and activism among the Mexican working-class community in Southern California.

  • BIOGRAPHIES Fiona Ma, California State Treasurer
    BIOGRAPHIES Fiona Ma, California State Treasurer Fiona Ma is California’s 34th State Treasurer. She was elected on November 6, 2018 with more votes (7,825,587) than any other candidate for treasurer in the state's history. She is the first woman of color and the first woman Certified Public Accountant (CPA) elected to the position. The State Treasurer’s Office was created in the California Constitution in 1849. It provides financing for schools, roads, housing, recycling and waste management, hospitals, public facilities, and other crucial infrastructure projects that better the lives of residents. California is the world’s fifth-largest economy and Treasurer Ma is the state’s primary banker. Her office processes more than $2 trillion in payments within a typical year and provides transparency and oversight for an investment portfolio of more than $90 billion, approximately $20 billion of which are local government funds. She also is responsible for $85 billion in outstanding general obligation and lease revenue bonds of the state. The Treasurer works closely with the State Legislature to ensure that its members know the state’s financial condition as they consider new legislation. She gives her own recommendations for the annual budget. Treasurer Ma was a member of the State Assembly from 2006-2012, serving as Speaker pro Tempore from 2010 to 2012. She built a reputation as a solution-oriented public servant and was adept at building unlikely coalitions to overcome California's most complex problems. Prior to serving as Speaker pro Tempore, she was Assembly Majority Whip and built coalitions during a state budget crisis to pass groundbreaking legislation that protected public education and the environment while also expanding access to health care.

K St, Oxnard CA 93030/ (805) 385-2500 1 Message From The Superintendent Dear Students and Families: Life as a high school student was stressful enough before the COVID-19 pandemic shook our world. Even before the pandemic, we knew that life itself and all its stressors posed a challenge to our students’ mental health. That is why the Oxnard Union High School District introduced Student Intervention Specialists on all of our campuses. The SIS team is there to help students deal with the mental and physical stresses of life as teenagers, and, yes, to deal with the additional stress of remote learning and lack of socialization for our students. The mental health of teens is a major national challenge. Studies show that about 10 million students across the country, ages 13–18, require professional help to deal with their mental health conditions. The most common mental health diagnoses among chil- Superintendent: dren and adolescents are anxiety, depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder Penelope DeLeon (ADHD), and bipolar disorder. Half of all psycho-emotional conditions begin before the age of 14, and 75 percent by the age of 24 and often begin to materialize in the classroom. It could be that a once-successful student is now failing, or a student simply cannot sit still or control the urge to disrupt a class. Maybe a once active student-athlete appears to have lost interest, or a student who has always been something of a loner now talks about doing harm to himself or to others.

  • Ventura County's Toxic Time Bomb
    Agritoxins: Ventura County’s Toxic Time Bomb Produced by The Wishtoyo Foundation Oxnard, California EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Maria Luisa worked in the strawberry fields of the Oxnard plain; Michele lives in the hills of Ventura. Two people, who appear to have little in common, are nevertheless bound by their exposure to pesticides in Ventura County: Maria Luisa was exposed to methyl bromide, Michele to Agri-mek. Their experiences changed their lives forever. We live in an agricultural community; thus, we are all at risk. Forty-four percent of the land in Ventura County is used for agriculture. Harmful and even deadly exposures can reach our farm worker community as well as our families. Toxic pesticide “agritoxin” use in Ventura County is polluting the air we breathe and the water we drink. Agritoxin refers to the toxic pesticides used in agriculture. This preliminary report by the Wishtoyo Foundation’s California Coastal Agritoxin Monitoring Program (CCAM) addresses the hazards associated with living in a community where vast acreage is dedicated to agricultural lands dependent upon large amounts of hazardous chemicals. This report demonstrates that (1) some of the most hazardous agritoxins are widely used in Ventura County agriculture; (2) these chemicals are extremely toxic and have been linked to numerous adverse health effects, including neurological impairment, birth defects, infertility and cancer; (3) in Ventura County, the general public, farmworkers, children, and elderly are readily exposed to agritoxins; and, (4) agritoxins pollute our air, water, and soil. This report will also highlight the ineffective nature of current legislative regulations purportedly put in place to ensure that these hazardous chemicals do not harm people and the environment.

  • Chapter 2 Gctd's Current Transit System
    CHAPTER 2 GCTD’S CURRENT TRANSIT SYSTEM FIXED-ROUTE SERVICE OVERVIEW GCTD provides public transit service in the cities of Ojai, Oxnard, Port Hueneme and Ventura, and in the unincorporated County areas between the cities. In Fiscal Year 2013-14, GCTD served almost 4 million fixed-route passenger boardings, an increase of 7.2 percent from the previous year. In the same year, it operated over 2,600,000 miles and 196,925 hours of revenue service. GCTD operates a fleet of 56 full-size (35-foot and 40-foot) buses on fixed-route service all using clean compressed natural gas (CNG). GCTD’s fixed-route service is comprised of 20 bus routes. The service is designed to meet an array of travel needs that connect neighborhoods to jobs, schools, shopping and other destinations. The amount of service available is limited by the level of funding available for transit in the local service area. As all GCTD buses are wheelchair accessible, the District meets all requirements of the ADA. Additionally, GCTD has installed front-mounted bicycle racks that can transport up to three bicycles on all of its fixed-route buses.
