The Santa Cruz Courthouse will again be the site of a protest. Here, hundreds of people gathered to protest the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022.

It's Presidents Day and some local communities are hosting "Not My President" rallies to voice opposition to many of the Trump administration's recent actions. And, this year's flu season has been rough in California.
