At a recent town council meeting in Los Gatos, residents voiced strong support for policies that protect education, the environment, and diversity concerns against the backdrop of a federal funding freeze initiated by President Trump. Despite the withdrawal of an order halting federal grants tied to these initiatives, local leaders are determined to address funding challenges, particularly in wildfire management and community services, highlighting a commitment to community resilience and responsiveness to federal actions. The council's decision to meet regularly on these issues underscores the town’s proactive stance.
The council directed staff to return every other month with an agenda item addressing local financial impact from federal government actions, reflecting residents' concerns on funding cuts.
Vice Mayor Rob Moore emphasized the town's responsibility to confront attacks on community initiatives related to education, diversity, and environmental protection following federal funding freezes.
