AND I THINK UNDER THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES, I AM WILLING TO RECALL A SENSE AT THIS TIME.

>> THE DIAZ NEWLY REORGANIZED CONVICTION AND SENTENCE REVIEW UNIT HAS ABOUT 150 SENTENCES THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNDER REVIEW.

>>> A CENTERPIECE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE TO THE PANDEMIC WAS A MASSIVE CASH INFUSION CALLED A PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM, OR PPP.

BUT WE FOUND THERE WERE VAST DISPARITIES IN HOW THE MONEY WAS GIVEN OUT IN SAN DIEGO, AND ELSEWHERE, FAVORING WEALTHY AND WHITE AREAS.

FROM MEXICO FAMILY HAD LONG DREAMED OF OPENING A MEXICAN RESTAURANT IN THEIR HOMETOWN OF IMPERIAL BEACH.

IN EARLY 2020, THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY.

THEN CAME THE PANDEMIC.

>> WE WERE GETTING READY TO OPEN IT WAS ALREADY, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING WAS CLOSED AND COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FOR US.

>> Reporter: SHE OPENED FOR TAKEOUT ORDERS AND APRIL BUT STRUGGLED TO MAKE RENT.

SO, WHEN THE FEDERAL PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM WAS ANNOUNCED, SHE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO HER BANK TO TRY TO GET FUNDING.

>> THEY SAID I DIDN'T QUALIFY FOR WHAT THEY WERE OFFERING BECAUSE MY BUSINESS WAS SO NEW.

>> Reporter: THIS STORY BECAME ALL TOO COMMON IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY AND THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY DURING 2020.

A HALF $1 TRILLION WERE SLOSHING THROUGH THE ECONOMY THROUGH THE PROGRAM, BUT RELATIVELY FEW WERE ENDING UP IN THE POCKETS OF BUSINESS OWNERS IN UNDERSERVED PLACES LIKE IMPERIAL BEACH.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT A BUSINESSES RECEIVING LOANS, THERE IS A DIVIDE BETWEEN NORTH AND SOUTH COUNTY.

THE SUCCESS RATE FOR APPLICANTS FROM CENSUS TRACTS IN IMPERIA BEACH AND PARADISE HILLS MAINLY LOW INCOME AREAS WITH LARGE MINORITY POPULATIONS WAS 5% OR LESS.

TRAVEL NORTH TO AFFLUENT, MOSTLY WHITE CENSUS TRACTS, IN PLACES LIKE CARLSBAD, AND THE SUCCESS RATES ARE 96% OR ABOVE.

DATA ANALYZED BY THE JOURNALISTS NONPROFIT REVEALED DISPARITIES EXIST IN THE VAST MAJORITY OF LARGE METRO AREAS IN THE UNITED STATES.

THE PRIMARY REASON FOR THIS INEQUITY IS THAT THE PPP LOANS WERE DISTRIBUTED BY BANKS.

AND MANY SMALL, MINORITY OWNED BUSINESSES LACK EXISTING BANKING RELATIONSHIPS.

SAYS MARK HERBERT, A SMALL BUSINESS ADVOCATE.

>> WHEN YOU BOLTED ON TOP OF EXISTING COMMERCIAL FINANCING SYSTEMS, IT IS GOING TO EXACERBATE THE PROBLEMS THAT ALREADY EXISTED BEFORE THE PANDEMIC.

>> Reporter: THE DATA SHOWS VAST INEQUITY IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY.

61% OF LOANS WERE GIVEN TO WHITE CENSUS.

WHILE SHE WAS BARELY HANGING ON AND IMPERIAL BEACH, MOLLY BOYD, THE OWNER OF A HAIR LOUNGE WAS FACING HER OWN CRISIS.

IN MARCH OF 2020, SHE, LIKE HAIRSTYLIST EVERYWHERE, HAD TO CLOSE HER SALON.

HER CLIENTS DID NOT TAKE IT WILL.

>> EVERYONE STARTED PANICKING.

I HAVE TO LOOK GOOD.

WE ARE IN CALIFORNIA.

>> Reporter: SHE APPLIED FOR A LOAN FROM HER USUAL BANK, AND WAS PUT ON A WAITING LIST.

HER FRIENDS TOLD HER ABOUT A BANK THAT HAD NO WAITING LIST AND SHE QUICKLY GOT FUNDING.

THE BANK ISSUED 84% OF ITS LOANS TO BUSINESSES AND WHITE MAJORITY CENSUS..

BUT SHE DOES NOT SEE INEQUITY IN THE PROCESS.

>> YOU DO NOT PUT IN THE TIME AND THE WORK IN THE EXTRA THAT YOU NEEDED TO IN ORDER TO STAY AFLOAT, YOU'RE JUST COMPLAINING.

IT'S HARD TO SAY OH YOU DID NOT HAVE INTERNET, IT'S 2021, EVERYBODY HAS INTERNET.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT THAN YOU BETTER GET A NEW PHONE.

>> A LOT OF INDIVIDUALS DON'T HAVE WI-FI, COMPUTER, TABLET.

WE ULTIMATELY STARTED MAKING MEDICATIONS BY MAKING FLYERS.

>> Reporter: ONE COUNCILMAN REPRESENTS THE AREA THAT GOT THE LOWEST RATE OF LOANS.

HE SAYS THAT CHALLENGES GO BEYOND INTERNET CONNECTIONS AND PHONES.

MANY HAVE FEW, IF ANY EMPLOYEES AND PRIOR EXPERIENCES WITH BANKS AND OTHER LENDERS HAVE BEEN MORE NEGATIVE THAN POSITIVE.

>> I FEEL SOME OF THE INDIVIDUALS MAY HAVE FELT A LITTLE INFERIOR AS FAR AS APPLYING.

>> Reporter: THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS TRIED TO GIVE HIM MONEY MORE EQUITABLY.

INCLUDING SETTING ASIDE A TWO WEEK PERIOD WORLDLY SMALL BUSINESSES IN LOW INCOME AREAS CAN APPLY.

IN THE MEANTIME, BUSINESS OWNERS AND IMPERIAL BEACH ARE LOOKING TO THE FUTURE AND HOPING FOR A RECOVERY THAT WILL KEEP THEM AFLOAT.

RIGHT NOW, SHE WORKS ANOTHER FULL-TIME JOB WHILE RUNNING THE RESTAURANT AND TAKING CARE OF HER KIDS.

>> WE HAVE GOOD DAYS AND BAD DAYS, MORE BAD THAN GOOD RIGHT NOW.

>> Reporter: SHE IS GETTING READY TO OPEN FOR IN PERSON DINING AND HOPES NEW CUSTOMERS WILL COME TO SAMPLE HER DAD'S SPECIALTY.

>> IN THE INTEREST OF FULL DISCLOSURE, WE RECEIVED A LOAN THROUGH THE PPP, TO USE OUR SEARCHABLE MAP TO SEE WHAT AREAS GOT THE MUST LOANS GO TO KPBS.ORG/PPP.

>>> IT SETS A LOT OF WHEELS IN MOTION.

BEN CHRISTOPHER, REPORTER EXPLAINS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING, AND WHAT COMES NEXT.

>> Reporter: CALIFORNIA'S IDENTITY DATING TO THE GOLD RUSH IS BASED ON AN IDEA, THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE WANT TO BE.

THE GOLDEN STATE HAS ALWAYS LURED PEOPLE SEEKING WORK, PLAY, AND SUNSHINE.

THE POPULAR SHE WENT UP AND UP AND SAID REPRESENTATION IN CONGRESS, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN OUR 171 YEAR HISTORY, WE ARE LOSING A SEAT.

>> I'M A POLITICAL REPORTER AND I AM GOING TO EXPLAIN WHAT CALIFORNIA LAW IN TWO MINUTES.

>> THE HOUSE WILL BE IN ORDER.

>> Reporter: THEREFORE HUNDRED 35 SEATS IN HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE, AND CALIFORNIA'S HELD 53 OF THEM.

THE 2020 POPULATION ESTIMATE WAS REALLY.

IT IS BASED ON THE BIRTHRATE, THE DEATH RATE, AND MIGRATION.

ALL THREE TRENDS HAVE BEEN MOVING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION IN CALIFORNIA.

WITH RATE IS A RECORD LOW, DEATH RATE IS INCHING UP, NOT BECAUSE OF COVID-19 BUT THIS DATE IS OLDER, AND FEWER PEOPLE ARE MOVING HERE.

IN PART DUE TO TIGHTER IMMIGRATION RULES UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.

A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE MOVING TO OREGON, COLORADO, AND TEXAS.

TO BE CLEAR, NONE OF IT MEANS THAT CALIFORNIA SHRINKING.

A POPULATION INCREASED BY MORE THAN 2 MILLION, IT HAS NOT GROWN AS FAST AS A COUNTRY AS A WHOLE AND NOT NEARLY AS FAST AS REGIONAL RIVALS.

IT FEELS BAD TO LOSE A CONGRESSIONAL SEAT, AND IT SHOULD.

ONE FEAR VOTE MEANS LESS OF A VOICE IN FEDERAL POLICY MINUTE MAKING, AND ONE FEAR VOTE IN THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE AND LESS MONEY.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND MORE IS DIVVIED UP BASED ON THE CENSUS.

IS BIG MONEY, MORE THAN $1.5 TRILLION ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND NOW CALIFORNIA WILL GET LESS OF THAT.

GOING FROM 53 TO 52 MAKES LIFE MORE COMPLICATED FOR THESE PEOPLE, THE CALIFORNIA CITIZENS REDISTRICTING COMMISSION.

THEY ARE DRAWN BY INDEPENDENT PANEL OF 14 VOLUNTEERS, NOT POLITICIANS.
