It underscores the ineffectiveness of past extermination efforts and highlights scientific evidence showing that such practices exacerbate conflicts. Additionally, it appeals for increased state funding for California's Alzheimer's Disease Centers, which face closures due to underfunding despite increasing demand for services from the aging population. Legislators are urged to support a proposed budget increase to sustain these crucial facilities.
