California promised kids who lost parents to C19 $4,500 HOPE Accounts for their futures. Lawmakers want to slash the budget.

A quote displayed on a sign erected on a small green. The text reads: THE NATIONAL COVID MEMORIAL WALL 
"We couldn't hug our consolations in times of great sadness, but We could be together here - loved ones and strangers - enduring loss, finding hope, remembering and grieving.
We are more than statistics, we are the lives, words and hearts on this wall."
