MARCH

HIGHLAND, CA--- The Inland Empire community will gather in reflection, unity, and purpose at the 46th Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Prayer Breakfast, presented by the Inland Empire Concerned African American Churches. Taking place on Mon- day, January 19, 2026, at 8:00 a.m., the event will be hosted at Entrepreneur High School, locat- ed at 26655 Highland Avenue in Highland, California.

This annual prayer breakfast con- tinues a longstanding tradition of honoring the life, leadership, and enduring legacy of Rev. Dr. Mar- tin Luther King Jr. Now in its 46th year, the gathering serves as both a commemoration and a call to action inviting faith leaders, en- trepreneurs, educators, students, and community members to come together in prayer and reflection while renewing their commitment to justice, service, and collective progress.

Attendees will be inspired by the keynote address from Pastor Greg- ory Perkins of The View Church

Honoring Legacy and Leadership:

The 46th Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Prayer Breakfast in Menifee, California. Known for his insightful leadership and com- munity-centered ministry, Pastor Perkins is expected to deliver a powerful message that connects Dr. King's vision to the present- day responsibility of building stronger families, churches, and communities.

The prayer breakfast is designed to be more than a ceremonial ob- servance. It is a space for spiritual renewal, meaningful dialogue, and intentional connection across generations. Through prayer, fel- lowship, and shared purpose, the event reinforces the belief that Dr. King's dream remains alive when communities gather with faith, courage, and a willingness to act.

Community members are encour- aged to RSVP in advance through IECAAC's official website. As the Inland Empire reflects on the leg- acy of Dr. King, this prayer break- fast stands as a reminder that lead- ership begins with service, unity is strengthened through faith, and progress is sustained when com- munities move forward together.

Assemblymember Mia Bonta (D- Oakland) serves California's 18th Assembly District (East Bay). She was first elected in a special elec- tion on August 31, 2021.

Bonta, who says she is guided by a long-standing commitment to educational equity, community safety, and expanding opportu- nities for working families, has built a legislative record focused on addressing systemic inequities through prevention-focused, com- munity-driven solutions.

Raised in a Puerto Rican family that valued public service, she has spent her career advocating for resources that strengthen schools, expand access to childcare and healthcare, and remove bureau- cratic barriers that disproportion- ately harm Black, Indigenous, immigrant, and low-income com- munities.

Her work, she says, reflects a THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 2026

Seven Questions for Assemblymember Mia Bonta, an Outspoken Advocate for Maternal Health and Working Families

By Edward Henderson | California Black Media deep belief in uplifting histori- cally underserved neighborhoods, ensuring families can afford to live and thrive in the East Bay, and protecting the social safety nets that help vulnerable residents meet basic needs.

Throughout 2025, Bonta's ef- forts emphasized dignity, access, and fairness across issues rang- ing from maternal health and im- migration to youth justice reform. While celebrating hard-won poli- cy victories shaped by community advocates and impacted families, she has also been candid about the persistence of deeply rooted chal- lenges --particularly for young people navigating systems that too often prioritize punishment over support.

Don't Take the Bait:

Venezuela is a Distraction from Trump's Affordability Crisis

As families struggle with rent, groceries, and health care costs, Donald Trump is once again try- ing to drag the national conver- sation off course this time with the dramatic capture of Venezu- elan President Nicolás Maduro. Maduro has ruled Venezuela as an authoritarian dictator, rigging elections, imprisoning political opponents, and driving millions of Venezuelans into poverty and exile through corruption and eco- nomic mismanagement. His re- moval is undoubtedly welcomed by those who suffered under his regime.

But Trump didn't work through Congress or international institu- tions he acted unilaterally. As Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said on ABC's "This

Week," "Maduro's a horrible, hor- rible person, but you don't treat lawlessness with other lawless- ness, and that's what's happened here."

Yet for most Americans, Ven- ezuela is not the issue keeping them up at night. Affordability is. That's the reality Democrats must stay anchored in. We cannot allow ourselves to be pulled into Trump's Venezuela trap. Venezu- ela is a deliberate distraction from the affordability crisis Trump dis- misses as a hoax, from his connec- tions to Jeffrey Epstein, and from a parade of scandals that have sent

By Kevin Harris and Richard McDaniel his approval ratings plummeting. He needs Americans focused any- where but on the issues that actu- ally affect their daily lives.

Poll after poll shows working class Americans are anxious about the cost of living. A recent Politi- co poll found 65% of U.S. house- holds say the cost of living has gotten worse or much worse in the past year. They want to know why wages aren't keeping up, why housing feels out of reach, and why basic necessities cost so much more than they did just a few years ago. These are concrete problems that need concrete solu- tions, and Trump has failed to pro- vide any. The political advantage for Democrats is staying focused on the affordability crisis.

Trump understands this dynamic, which is exactly why he's trying to change the subject.He'd rather talk about foreign enemies than explain how his tax cuts for the wealthy and tariffs on everyday goods have raised costs for work- ing families. He'd rather stir fear and nationalism than defend poli- cies that have left many Ameri- cans worse off. He'd rather talk about Venezuelan drug cartels than rising healthcare costs.

Democrats should not help him by amplifying the distraction.
