Trump granted a Presidential pardon to Joe Arpaio, former Sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Known as “America’s Toughest Sheriff,” Arpaio gained a reputation for his harsh — his critics would say cruel — treatment of immigrants in the country illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arpaio \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/07/31/540629884/ex-sheriff-joe-arpaio-convicted-of-criminal-contempt\">was convicted of criminal contempt\u003c/a> earlier this summer for defying a judge’s order that his deputies stop detaining immigrants because they lacked legal status. His deputies carried on the practice for 18 months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump hinted at the pardon last week and again at a Phoenix rally Tuesday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, he told Fox News he was “seriously considering” a pardon and that Arpaio is “a great American patriot” who has done “a lot in the fight against illegal immigration.” Tuesday night, he asked the crowd of supporters: “Do the people in this room like Sheriff Joe?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know what, I’ll make a prediction: I think he’s going to be just fine,” he said. “OK? But I won’t do it tonight, because I don’t want to cause any controversy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement issued by the White House said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Arpaio’s life and career, which began at the age of 18 when he enlisted in the military after the outbreak of the Korean War, exemplify selfless public service. After serving in the Army, Arpaio became a police officer in Washington, D.C. and Las Vegas, NV and later served as a Special Agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), formerly the Bureau of Narcotics. After 25 years of admirable service, Arpaio went on to lead the DEA’s branch in Arizona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In 1992, the problems facing his community pulled Arpaio out of retirement to return to law enforcement. He ran and won a campaign to become Sheriff of Maricopa County. Throughout his time as Sheriff, Arpaio continued his life’s work of protecting the public from the scourges of crime and illegal immigration. Sheriff Joe Arpaio is now eighty-five years old, and after more than fifty years of admirable service to our Nation, he is worthy candidate for a Presidential pardon.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/08/18/544305919/sheriff-arpaio-trump-has-guts-and-courage\">In an interview with NPR’s Wade Goodwyn last Thursday\u003c/a>, Arpaio had equally effusive praise for Trump, predicting that he will end up regarded as the greatest president in American history. He also said he thought that, like him, Trump had been unfairly smeared as a racist. “We need him and I feel sad how they’re trying to destroy him. It makes me sick,” he said. “I’ll tell you one thing. He’s got guts and courage, and that’s what this country needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arpaio said he didn’t ask for a pardon and, as of late last week, had not spoken directly to Trump about one. The misdemeanor conviction carries a possible sentence of up to six months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among his most controversial measures, the sheriff instructed his deputies to detain Latino residents and inquire about their legal status.

But I won’t do it tonight, because I don’t want to cause any controversy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement issued by the White House said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Arpaio’s life and career, which began at the age of 18 when he enlisted in the military after the outbreak of the Korean War, exemplify selfless public service. After serving in the Army, Arpaio became a police officer in Washington, D.C. and Las Vegas, NV and later served as a Special Agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), formerly the Bureau of Narcotics. After 25 years of admirable service, Arpaio went on to lead the DEA’s branch in Arizona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In 1992, the problems facing his community pulled Arpaio out of retirement to return to law enforcement. He ran and won a campaign to become Sheriff of Maricopa County. Throughout his time as Sheriff, Arpaio continued his life’s work of protecting the public from the scourges of crime and illegal immigration. Sheriff Joe Arpaio is now eighty-five years old, and after more than fifty years of admirable service to our Nation, he is worthy candidate for a Presidential pardon.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/08/18/544305919/sheriff-arpaio-trump-has-guts-and-courage\">In an interview with NPR’s Wade Goodwyn last Thursday\u003c/a>, Arpaio had equally effusive praise for Trump, predicting that he will end up regarded as the greatest president in American history. He also said he thought that, like him, Trump had been unfairly smeared as a racist. “We need him and I feel sad how they’re trying to destroy him. It makes me sick,” he said. “I’ll tell you one thing. He’s got guts and courage, and that’s what this country needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arpaio said he didn’t ask for a pardon and, as of late last week, had not spoken directly to Trump about one. The misdemeanor conviction carries a possible sentence of up to six months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among his most controversial measures, the sheriff instructed his deputies to detain Latino residents and inquire about their legal status. He then disregarded a federal judge’s ruling that he didn’t have the legal authority to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 1990s, at the start of his tenure, Arpaio opened Tent City jail, which housed inmates outdoors in the blistering Arizona sun.

That position energized the right, which had been making similar arguments in their social media sphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, while the fringe right looked to find -- and document -- new conflicts, officials in Alameda and San Francisco counties took steps to lessen the enthusiasm for these rallies, and reduce the chance for violence, before the gatherings even began.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee took an immediate hard stand against the rally at Crissy Field, urging the National Park Service to cancel the permit. Meanwhile, congressional members, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, also spoke out forcefully against the rally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to two San Francisco officials with knowledge of the negotiations, the political pressure and public outcry yielded major rewards for public safety, including a list of banned items such as firearms, weapons and helmets.

At his bond hearing, an Alameda County judge ordered Chapman -- who often leads others into violent clashes -- to stay away from the Berkeley protest should he post a $135,000 bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, Berkeley city officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2017/08/18/berkeley-grants-city-manager-power-make-temporary-protest-rules/\">passed an ordinance\u003c/a> granting the city manager broad powers to ban weapons during rallies that don't have permits. The move -- criticized by both the far left and right -- is expected to allow police to act more aggressively when protests turn to riots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think our goal is to contain the event around the block so it doesn’t spill out to a broader area,” Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin told KQED. “The rules we will be putting in place around objects will make a big difference, and we will have a very visible police presence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Third, Berkeley Assistant City Manager Jovan Grogan denied a permit to organizer Amber Cummings. The denial was issued in part because Cummings wanted to use amplified sound powered by a generator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Applicants wishing to use sound outdoors for an event must obtain a permit no less than thirty days from the date of the event,” Grogan wrote in the denial letter. “Failure to do so is grounds for an automatic denial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cummings applied for the permit 10 days before the rally was scheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The haphazard organizing has been a hallmark of many of these events, which are often thrown together at sensitive times as a tool to incite anger and violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if this weekend passes without major acts of violence, it should be examined if officials like Grogan helped keep the peace by cutting the power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In Limiting Weapons, Officials Cut Fringe-Right Media Production Options\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The threat of violence at these rallies – \u003ca href=\"http://www.opb.org/news/article/jeremy-joseph-christian-portland-stabbing-suspect-charged-with-murder/\">and in the days afterward\u003c/a> -- is real, and city officials have urged counterprotesters to stay away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under the guise of public safety, officials have quietly taken away the tools that make creating on-the-scene media easy for the fringe right. Media production \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/17/why-trumps-words-spoken-and-unspoken-matter-to-white-supremacists/\">is an essential component\u003c/a> for their recruitment drives since it gives white supremacists and others the ability to portray themselves as a besieged, righteous movement fighting against liberals and the mainstream media. These videos \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/16/do-police-allow-safe-spaces-for-white-nationalist-violence/\">are a key motivator\u003c/a> in attending these chaotic rallies, and often fuel conspiracy theories used to deflect from criticism of violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, organizers of both Bay Area rallies said they chose the locations because of the powerful backdrops they provide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s beautiful, obviously,” said Patriot Prayer organizer Gibson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While officials couldn’t stop these political actors from using their sets of choice, they have seriously curtailed their ability to record and livestream the action. In San Francisco, for example, selfie sticks, camera helmets, drones, tripods and large bags that often hold over-the-shoulder cameras would not be allowed in the demonstration area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco officials negotiated with the National Park Service to ban these items. Mayor Lee said it was solely related to public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We insisted on the highest levels of public safety,” Lee said. “And these things were used as weapons [at other rallies].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, a real-world side consequence is that the fringe right won’t be able to livestream their event and have both hands free to fight. San Francisco Board of Supervisors President London Breed said if the banned items mean it’s harder for the fringe right to broadcast themselves, then so be it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These images continue to tear our country apart,” Breed said. “They want all eyes on them, which is why they’re doing what they’re doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11613966\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11613966 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People take photos and video of a \"Make America Great Again\" hat on that was burned during a demonstration against the scheduled appearance of Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Berkeley on Feb. 1, 2017.

At his bond hearing, an Alameda County judge ordered Chapman -- who often leads others into violent clashes -- to stay away from the Berkeley protest should he post a $135,000 bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, Berkeley city officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2017/08/18/berkeley-grants-city-manager-power-make-temporary-protest-rules/\">passed an ordinance\u003c/a> granting the city manager broad powers to ban weapons during rallies that don't have permits. The move -- criticized by both the far left and right -- is expected to allow police to act more aggressively when protests turn to riots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think our goal is to contain the event around the block so it doesn’t spill out to a broader area,” Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin told KQED. “The rules we will be putting in place around objects will make a big difference, and we will have a very visible police presence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Third, Berkeley Assistant City Manager Jovan Grogan denied a permit to organizer Amber Cummings. The denial was issued in part because Cummings wanted to use amplified sound powered by a generator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Applicants wishing to use sound outdoors for an event must obtain a permit no less than thirty days from the date of the event,” Grogan wrote in the denial letter. “Failure to do so is grounds for an automatic denial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cummings applied for the permit 10 days before the rally was scheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The haphazard organizing has been a hallmark of many of these events, which are often thrown together at sensitive times as a tool to incite anger and violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if this weekend passes without major acts of violence, it should be examined if officials like Grogan helped keep the peace by cutting the power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In Limiting Weapons, Officials Cut Fringe-Right Media Production Options\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The threat of violence at these rallies – \u003ca href=\"http://www.opb.org/news/article/jeremy-joseph-christian-portland-stabbing-suspect-charged-with-murder/\">and in the days afterward\u003c/a> -- is real, and city officials have urged counterprotesters to stay away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under the guise of public safety, officials have quietly taken away the tools that make creating on-the-scene media easy for the fringe right. Media production \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/17/why-trumps-words-spoken-and-unspoken-matter-to-white-supremacists/\">is an essential component\u003c/a> for their recruitment drives since it gives white supremacists and others the ability to portray themselves as a besieged, righteous movement fighting against liberals and the mainstream media. These videos \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/16/do-police-allow-safe-spaces-for-white-nationalist-violence/\">are a key motivator\u003c/a> in attending these chaotic rallies, and often fuel conspiracy theories used to deflect from criticism of violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, organizers of both Bay Area rallies said they chose the locations because of the powerful backdrops they provide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s beautiful, obviously,” said Patriot Prayer organizer Gibson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While officials couldn’t stop these political actors from using their sets of choice, they have seriously curtailed their ability to record and livestream the action. In San Francisco, for example, selfie sticks, camera helmets, drones, tripods and large bags that often hold over-the-shoulder cameras would not be allowed in the demonstration area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco officials negotiated with the National Park Service to ban these items. Mayor Lee said it was solely related to public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We insisted on the highest levels of public safety,” Lee said. “And these things were used as weapons [at other rallies].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, a real-world side consequence is that the fringe right won’t be able to livestream their event and have both hands free to fight. San Francisco Board of Supervisors President London Breed said if the banned items mean it’s harder for the fringe right to broadcast themselves, then so be it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These images continue to tear our country apart,” Breed said. “They want all eyes on them, which is why they’re doing what they’re doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11613966\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11613966 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People take photos and video of a \"Make America Great Again\" hat on that was burned during a demonstration against the scheduled appearance of Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Berkeley on Feb. 1, 2017.

"content": "\u003cp>Proposition 66 was sold to voters as a surefire way to speed up the state's decades-long death penalty appeals process, but its ability to do that was cast into doubt Thursday after the California Supreme Court ruled that a five-year deadline imposed by the initiative is \"directive, not mandatory.\" In other words, it's a goal, not a hard deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the decision could clear the way for executions to resume in California, where no one has been put to death in over a decade and 18 of the more than 750 death row inmates already have exhausted their appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The executions could resume because in its 5-2 decision, the court upheld most of the ballot measure, dismissing several of the arguments posed by opponents of the death penalty. But it upheld part of the challenge, writing that the five-year deadline on death penalty appeals in California is unrealistic and, if enforceable, would \"pose serious separation of power problems.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Case law establishes that ... the constitutional separation of powers does not permit statutory restrictions that would materially impair fair adjudication or unduly restrict the courts’ ability to administer justice in an orderly fashion,\" stated the majority, written by Justice Carol Corrigan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was joined by justices Kathryn Werdegar, Goodwin Liu, Leondra Kruger and Andrea Lynn Hoch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hoch sat in on the case after Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye and Justice Ming W. Chin removed themselves because the lawsuit named the state's Judicial Council as a defendant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both serve on the council, a policymaking body for the court system, which would have to make new rules to implement Proposition 66.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 66 was narrowly approved by California voters last fall, who at the same time rejected a measure to abolish the death penalty. While voters were told the measure would limit court appeals to five years, they were not told how that would occur, according to the state Supreme Court ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court leaves open the possibility that individual prisoners could challenge other parts of Proposition 66.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kent Scheidegger of the Criminal Justice Legal Foundation said he's pleased most of the ballot measure was upheld.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The voters voted for a broad reform with many changes to the capital review process, and that’s what they’re getting,\" Scheidegger said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said other parts of Proposition 66, including stricter limits on what can be appealed by death row inmates, will greatly reduce delays of executions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We’ve cut back the third, fourth and fifth reviews inmates try to file by limiting them to claims of innocence,\" Scheidegger said. \"That’s an extremely important reform. I can’t overstate that. They have really bogged down the process by burying the case in paper on issues that had nothing to do with the guilt or innocence of the crime.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar wrote a concurring and dissenting opinion arguing that the court should go further. \u003ca href=\"http://www.courts.ca.gov/3825.htm?print=1\">Justice Raymond J. Ikola\u003c/a>, who also sat in on the case because of the recusals, joined his opinion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What reasonable voters would have clearly recognized ... is that Proposition 66 contained a genuine, enforceable, five-year deadline for completion of the state court appeal and resolution of the initial habeas corpus petition in death penalty cases. Candor requires us to be equally clear about whether such a deadline accords with our law: It does not,\" he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Christina Von der Ahe Rayburn, who represented the plaintiffs in the case, said in a written statement that opponents of the ballot measure are gratified by the ruling even though it didn't go as far as they would like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While the Court did not strike down [the] deadlines, it rendered them toothless by construing them as permissive goals, rather than as mandatory deadlines,\" she said. \"This allows the judiciary to continue to perform its critical role in carefully reviewing the appeals of the state’s death row inmates, in order to avoid the execution of an innocent person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University of California Law School Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, who filed an amicus brief opposing Proposition 66, said opponents of capital punishment may not be disappointed by the ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There’s an enormous lag time between when somebody \u003cem>needs\u003c/em> an attorney and when one is provided,\" Chemerinsky said. \"That accounts for more of the delay than anything else. The problem with Prop. 66 is it doesn’t deal with that problem. You can’t magically say let’s have more lawyers qualified to handle death cases unless there’s some mechanism to provide them.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

But it upheld part of the challenge, writing that the five-year deadline on death penalty appeals in California is unrealistic and, if enforceable, would \"pose serious separation of power problems.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Case law establishes that ... the constitutional separation of powers does not permit statutory restrictions that would materially impair fair adjudication or unduly restrict the courts’ ability to administer justice in an orderly fashion,\" stated the majority, written by Justice Carol Corrigan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was joined by justices Kathryn Werdegar, Goodwin Liu, Leondra Kruger and Andrea Lynn Hoch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Candor requires us to be equally clear about whether such a deadline accords with our law: It does not,\" he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Christina Von der Ahe Rayburn, who represented the plaintiffs in the case, said in a written statement that opponents of the ballot measure are gratified by the ruling even though it didn't go as far as they would like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While the Court did not strike down [the] deadlines, it rendered them toothless by construing them as permissive goals, rather than as mandatory deadlines,\" she said. \"This allows the judiciary to continue to perform its critical role in carefully reviewing the appeals of the state’s death row inmates, in order to avoid the execution of an innocent person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University of California Law School Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, who filed an amicus brief opposing Proposition 66, said opponents of capital punishment may not be disappointed by the ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There’s an enormous lag time between when somebody \u003cem>needs\u003c/em> an attorney and when one is provided,\" Chemerinsky said. \"That accounts for more of the delay than anything else. The problem with Prop. 66 is it doesn’t deal with that problem.

He said that while he was unhappy with the Trump White House, he stayed on after the election to keep up those efforts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I found the people I worked with within the State Department to be fabulous,” Kammen said. “But they’re not being supported from the top and their mission to invest in clean energy, green jobs is increasingly inconsistent with what we’re seeing out of the White House.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read the letter below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[documentcloud url=\"http://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3945205-ProfessorKammen-ScienceEnvoy-Resignation-August.html\" responsive=true]\u003c/p>\n\n",
