"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

This is one story,” Chappellet says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s also the story of the roughly 40 kids who can’t get to school. For now, teachers are being helicoptered in. Other people who have been able to hang on to their jobs can’t get to work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the trail was no easy job. John De Luca of California State Parks says the steep hillside required the trail to be somewhat elaborate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's really not much footing. You’d be on all fours grabbing at trees and branches to pull yourself up,” De Luca says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new trail is currently for Big Sur locals only.

S. government would start funding such research and take a leadership role. Back then, advocates for the work saw public funding as ideal, because it would foster transparency, accountability and public trust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now that the Trump administration is in charge, those folks have changed their views.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, if officials offered money for a big research program on climate engineering, “I would say, ‘No, thank you,’ ” \u003ca href=\"https://law.ucla.edu/faculty/faculty-profiles/edward-a-parson/\">Ted Parson\u003c/a>, who specializes in environmental law at UCLA, told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/521780927/521884381\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deliberate climate engineering has long had a reputation for being controversial and somewhat wacky — possibly even dangerous. But as our climate heats up, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127245606\">some\u003c/a> have called it a bad idea whose time has come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposals include spraying particles into the stratosphere to reflect incoming sunlight and cool the entire planet. Serious research groups want to conduct small, low-risk studies to see what might be possible, and to probe the particles’ microphysics and chemistry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of approach is starting to seem downright respectable — even the prestigious National Academy of Sciences recently \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/02/10/385065816/scientific-pros-weigh-the-cons-of-messing-with-earths-thermostat\">called\u003c/a> for more research on climate geoengineering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The research that is being proposed is tiny and completely innocuous,” Parson said. “One of the groups that’s interested in doing this wants to spray sea salt up into the air to see what happens to the transmission of sunlight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many environmentalists are suspicious of efforts to tinker with the climate. What’s more, they think just talking about the possibility of cooling the planet will threaten the global effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”WzKnhbQXEP4Hscsriw9q61wQesQMx1Zq”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the last thing Parson would want is for this research to be associated with the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To the extent you’re in a political setting where misinformation about climate change is being spread, efforts to cut emissions are being undermined or threatened,” Parson told NPR, “then that suggests the possibility that the risks of pursuing research of this kind might actually outweigh the benefits.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the Trump administration advocating cuts for climate science, it’s unlikely they’ll face a decision of whether to turn down funding. In fact, many who think it’s important to start studying ways to engineer the climate are now turning to private groups and philanthropists, which are increasingly serious about supporting such research.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than a hundred people \u003ca href=\"http://geoengineering.environment.harvard.edu/Forum-US-Solar-Geoengineering-Research-DC-March-2017\">gathered\u003c/a> at a science and policy forum in Washington, D.C., a few days ago to talk about how climate engineering research could go forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the elephant in the room was the recent change in the U.S. government’s policy toward climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just don’t think that right now the U.

But as our climate heats up, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127245606\">some\u003c/a> have called it a bad idea whose time has come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposals include spraying particles into the stratosphere to reflect incoming sunlight and cool the entire planet. Serious research groups want to conduct small, low-risk studies to see what might be possible, and to probe the particles’ microphysics and chemistry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of approach is starting to seem downright respectable — even the prestigious National Academy of Sciences recently \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/02/10/385065816/scientific-pros-weigh-the-cons-of-messing-with-earths-thermostat\">called\u003c/a> for more research on climate geoengineering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The research that is being proposed is tiny and completely innocuous,” Parson said. “One of the groups that’s interested in doing this wants to spray sea salt up into the air to see what happens to the transmission of sunlight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many environmentalists are suspicious of efforts to tinker with the climate. What’s more, they think just talking about the possibility of cooling the planet will threaten the global effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the last thing Parson would want is for this research to be associated with the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To the extent you’re in a political setting where misinformation about climate change is being spread, efforts to cut emissions are being undermined or threatened,” Parson told NPR, “then that suggests the possibility that the risks of pursuing research of this kind might actually outweigh the benefits.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the Trump administration advocating cuts for climate science, it’s unlikely they’ll face a decision of whether to turn down funding. In fact, many who think it’s important to start studying ways to engineer the climate are now turning to private groups and philanthropists, which are increasingly serious about supporting such research.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than a hundred people \u003ca href=\"http://geoengineering.environment.harvard.edu/Forum-US-Solar-Geoengineering-Research-DC-March-2017\">gathered\u003c/a> at a science and policy forum in Washington, D.C., a few days ago to talk about how climate engineering research could go forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the elephant in the room was the recent change in the U.S. government’s policy toward climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just don’t think that right now the U.

"content": "\u003cp>Declaring “the start of a new era” in energy production, President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday that he said would revive the coal industry and create jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move makes good on his campaign pledge to unravel former President Barack Obama’s plan to curb global warming. The order seeks to suspend, rescind or flag for review more than a half-dozen measures in an effort to boost domestic energy production in the form of fossil fuels.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘Climate change is real and will not be wished away by rhetoric or denial.’\u003ccite>Gov. Jerry Brown, California,\u003cbr>\nGov. Andrew Cuomo, New York\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Democratic Govs. Jerry Brown of California and Andrew Cuomo of New York issued a joint statement Tuesday saying they’re still committed to their own emissions targets. The two states have set aggressive goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Their targets are stricter than the Obama power plant rule Trump seeks to eliminate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Climate change is real and will not be wished away by rhetoric or denial,” the two governors said in the statement. “Dismantling the Clean Power Plan and other critical climate programs is profoundly misguided and shockingly ignores basic science. With this move, the Administration will endanger public health, our environment and our economic prosperity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has repeatedly criticized the power plant rule and others as an attack on American workers and the struggling coal industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Environmental activists, including former Vice President Al Gore, denounced the plan. But Trump said the effort would allow workers to “succeed on a level playing field for the first time in a long time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is what this is all about: bringing back our jobs, bringing back our dreams and making America wealthy again,” Trump said, during a ceremony at the Environmental Protection Agency headquarters, attended by a number of coal miners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”3r1z4IlFYFzVnboUqLggbsORLXX6KaCE”]The order initiates a review of the Clean Power Plan, which restricts greenhouse gas emissions at coal-fired power plants. The regulation, which was the former president’s signature effort to curb carbon emissions, has been the subject of long-running legal challenges by Republican-led states and those who profit from burning oil, coal and gas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But just as Obama’s climate efforts were often stymied by legal challenges, environmental groups are promising to fight Trump’s pro-fossil fuel agenda in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has called global warming a “hoax” invented by the Chinese, and has repeatedly criticized the power-plant rule as an attack on American workers and the struggling U.S. coal industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to pulling back from the Clean Power Plan, the administration will also lift a 14-month-old moratorium on new coal leases on federal lands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Obama administration had imposed a three-year moratorium on new federal coal leases in January 2016, arguing that the $1 billion-a-year program must be modernized to ensure a fair financial return to taxpayers and address climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump accused his predecessor of waging a “war on coal” and boasted in a speech to Congress that he has made “a historic effort to massively reduce job-crushing regulations,” including some that threaten “the future and livelihoods of our great coal miners.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The order will also chip away at other regulations, including scrapping language on the “social cost” of greenhouse gases. It will initiate a review of efforts to reduce the emission of methane in oil and natural gas production as well as a Bureau of Land Management hydraulic fracturing rule, to determine whether those reflect the president’s policy priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘These executive actions are a welcome departure from the previous administration’s strategy of making energy more expensive through costly, job-killing regulations that choked our economy.’\u003ccite>Thomas J. Donohue,\u003cbr>U.S. Chamber of Commerce\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp> It will also rescind Obama-era executive orders and memoranda, including one that addressed climate change and national security and one that sought to prepare the country for the impacts of climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration is still in discussion about whether it intends to withdraw from the Paris Agreement on climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s order could make it more difficult, though not impossible, for the U.S. to achieve its carbon reduction goals. The president’s promises to boost coal jobs run counter to market forces, such as U.S. utilities converting coal-fired power plants to cheaper, cleaner-burning natural gas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency chief, Scott Pruitt, alarmed environmental groups and scientists earlier this month when he said he does not believe carbon dioxide is a primary contributor to global warming. The statement is at odds with mainstream scientific consensus and Pruitt’s own agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The overwhelming majority of peer-reviewed studies and climate scientists agree the planet is warming, mostly due to man-made sources, including carbon dioxide, methane, halocarbons and nitrogen oxide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents say Obama’s effort would have killed coal-mining jobs and driven up electricity costs. The Obama administration, some Democratic-led states and environmental groups counter that it would spur thousands of clean-energy jobs and help the U.S. meet ambitious goals to reduce carbon pollution set by the international agreement signed in Paris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s order on coal-fired power plants follows an executive order he signed last month mandating a review of an Obama-era rule aimed at protecting small streams and wetlands from development and pollution. The order instructs the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers to review a rule that redefined “waters of the United States” protected under the Clean Water Act to include smaller creeks and wetlands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Republicans have blamed Obama-era environmental regulations for the loss of coal jobs, federal data shows that U.S. mines have been shedding jobs for decades under presidents from both parties as a result of increasing automation and competition from natural gas, which has become more abundant through hydraulic fracturing.

The two states have set aggressive goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Their targets are stricter than the Obama power plant rule Trump seeks to eliminate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Climate change is real and will not be wished away by rhetoric or denial,” the two governors said in the statement. “Dismantling the Clean Power Plan and other critical climate programs is profoundly misguided and shockingly ignores basic science. With this move, the Administration will endanger public health, our environment and our economic prosperity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has repeatedly criticized the power plant rule and others as an attack on American workers and the struggling coal industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But Trump said the effort would allow workers to “succeed on a level playing field for the first time in a long time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is what this is all about: bringing back our jobs, bringing back our dreams and making America wealthy again,” Trump said, during a ceremony at the Environmental Protection Agency headquarters, attended by a number of coal miners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>The order initiates a review of the Clean Power Plan, which restricts greenhouse gas emissions at coal-fired power plants. The regulation, which was the former president’s signature effort to curb carbon emissions, has been the subject of long-running legal challenges by Republican-led states and those who profit from burning oil, coal and gas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But just as Obama’s climate efforts were often stymied by legal challenges, environmental groups are promising to fight Trump’s pro-fossil fuel agenda in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has called global warming a “hoax” invented by the Chinese, and has repeatedly criticized the power-plant rule as an attack on American workers and the struggling U.S. coal industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to pulling back from the Clean Power Plan, the administration will also lift a 14-month-old moratorium on new coal leases on federal lands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Obama administration had imposed a three-year moratorium on new federal coal leases in January 2016, arguing that the $1 billion-a-year program must be modernized to ensure a fair financial return to taxpayers and address climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump accused his predecessor of waging a “war on coal” and boasted in a speech to Congress that he has made “a historic effort to massively reduce job-crushing regulations,” including some that threaten “the future and livelihoods of our great coal miners.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The order will also chip away at other regulations, including scrapping language on the “social cost” of greenhouse gases. It will initiate a review of efforts to reduce the emission of methane in oil and natural gas production as well as a Bureau of Land Management hydraulic fracturing rule, to determine whether those reflect the president’s policy priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘These executive actions are a welcome departure from the previous administration’s strategy of making energy more expensive through costly, job-killing regulations that choked our economy.’\u003ccite>Thomas J. Donohue,\u003cbr>U.S. Chamber of Commerce\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp> It will also rescind Obama-era executive orders and memoranda, including one that addressed climate change and national security and one that sought to prepare the country for the impacts of climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration is still in discussion about whether it intends to withdraw from the Paris Agreement on climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s order could make it more difficult, though not impossible, for the U.S. to achieve its carbon reduction goals. The president’s promises to boost coal jobs run counter to market forces, such as U.S. utilities converting coal-fired power plants to cheaper, cleaner-burning natural gas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency chief, Scott Pruitt, alarmed environmental groups and scientists earlier this month when he said he does not believe carbon dioxide is a primary contributor to global warming. The statement is at odds with mainstream scientific consensus and Pruitt’s own agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The overwhelming majority of peer-reviewed studies and climate scientists agree the planet is warming, mostly due to man-made sources, including carbon dioxide, methane, halocarbons and nitrogen oxide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents say Obama’s effort would have killed coal-mining jobs and driven up electricity costs. The Obama administration, some Democratic-led states and environmental groups counter that it would spur thousands of clean-energy jobs and help the U.S. meet ambitious goals to reduce carbon pollution set by the international agreement signed in Paris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s order on coal-fired power plants follows an executive order he signed last month mandating a review of an Obama-era rule aimed at protecting small streams and wetlands from development and pollution. The order instructs the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers to review a rule that redefined “waters of the United States” protected under the Clean Water Act to include smaller creeks and wetlands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Republicans have blamed Obama-era environmental regulations for the loss of coal jobs, federal data shows that U.S. mines have been shedding jobs for decades under presidents from both parties as a result of increasing automation and competition from natural gas, which has become more abundant through hydraulic fracturing. Another factor is the plummeting cost of solar panels and wind turbines, which now can produce emissions-free electricity cheaper than burning coal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to an Energy Department analysis released in January, coal mining now accounts for fewer than 75,000 U.S. jobs.

In the mid-19th century, \u003ca href=\"http://www.mfa.org/collections/object/valley-of-the-yosemite-33107\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Albert Bierstadt\u003c/a>’s oil paintings first established the landscape in the American imagination, as did the work of William Kieth and Thomas Hill. “As part the Hudson River School era, they were interested in the epic landscape infused with majestic light,” Reynolds says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then came photography, epitomized by the work of Ansel Adams, Carleton Watkins and Celia Crocker Thompson. In more recent years, a host of photographers have continued to tackle Yosemite afresh: \u003ca href=\"http://www.matthewbrandt.com/works/taste-tests-in-color/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew Brandt\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://binhdanh.com/Projects/Yosemite/yosemite.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Binh Danh\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://judydater.com/nudes/pzo007y7y85t95guktxobndyqw7zvg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Judy Dater\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.adamkatseff.com/landscapes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Adam Katseff\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.americansuburbx.com/2015/07/roger-minick-sightseer.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roger Minick\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://lacmaonfire.blogspot.com/2015/11/opies-yosemite-for-la-courthouse.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Catherine Opie\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.milleetibbs.com/mountains_valleys1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Millee Tibbs\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But relatively few artists are drawn to the park these days. “Yosemite lost the intellectual excitement that it once held to many painters, probably due to how well Yosemite is known and how often it has been depicted,” Reynolds says. “Maybe also because no one had an idea of how to do it differently. How to deal with those impossibly grand views and angles of monumental granite.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12938823\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12938823\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-800x1077.jpg\" alt='\"Untitled No. 8\" from The Yosemite Suite, 2010, by David Hockney.' width=\"800\" height=\"1077\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-800x1077.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-160x215.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-768x1034.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-1020x1373.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-1920x2584.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-1180x1588.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-960x1292.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-240x323.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-375x505.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-520x700.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut.jpg 1522w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">“Untitled No. 8” from The Yosemite Suite, 2010, by David Hockney. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of David Hockney)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Hockney clearly isn’t intimidated by Yosemite or its legacy on canvas or photo stock. “He’s not afraid to play with places that are very familiar to us,” says \u003ca href=\"http://art.sdsu.edu/profiles/bridget-gilman/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bridget Gilman\u003c/a>, an assistant professor of art history at San Diego State University. “There are all these ways in which a place that’s familiar could be a launching point for some kind of experimentation with materials.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hockney’s application of iPad painting to one of the nation’s most iconic landmarks ultimately recalls John Muir’s description of the park in \u003cem>The Yosemite\u003c/em>: “From the eastern boundary of this vast golden flower-bed rose the mighty Sierra, miles in height, and so gloriously colored and so radiant, it seemed not clothed with light but wholly composed of it, like the wall of some celestial city.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-800x78.jpg\" alt=\"Q.Logo.Break\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>David Hockey’s ‘Yosemite Suite’ is on view at the Pace Gallery in Palo Alto through Sunday, May 7.

In the mid-19th century, \u003ca href=\"http://www.mfa.org/collections/object/valley-of-the-yosemite-33107\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Albert Bierstadt\u003c/a>’s oil paintings first established the landscape in the American imagination, as did the work of William Kieth and Thomas Hill. “As part the Hudson River School era, they were interested in the epic landscape infused with majestic light,” Reynolds says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then came photography, epitomized by the work of Ansel Adams, Carleton Watkins and Celia Crocker Thompson. In more recent years, a host of photographers have continued to tackle Yosemite afresh: \u003ca href=\"http://www.matthewbrandt.com/works/taste-tests-in-color/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew Brandt\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://binhdanh.com/Projects/Yosemite/yosemite.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Binh Danh\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://judydater.com/nudes/pzo007y7y85t95guktxobndyqw7zvg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Judy Dater\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.adamkatseff.com/landscapes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Adam Katseff\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.americansuburbx.com/2015/07/roger-minick-sightseer.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roger Minick\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://lacmaonfire.blogspot.com/2015/11/opies-yosemite-for-la-courthouse.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Catherine Opie\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.milleetibbs.com/mountains_valleys1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Millee Tibbs\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But relatively few artists are drawn to the park these days. “Yosemite lost the intellectual excitement that it once held to many painters, probably due to how well Yosemite is known and how often it has been depicted,” Reynolds says. “Maybe also because no one had an idea of how to do it differently. How to deal with those impossibly grand views and angles of monumental granite.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12938823\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12938823\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-800x1077.jpg\" alt='\"Untitled No. 8\" from The Yosemite Suite, 2010, by David Hockney.' width=\"800\" height=\"1077\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-800x1077.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-160x215.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-768x1034.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-1020x1373.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-1920x2584.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-1180x1588.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-960x1292.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-240x323.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-375x505.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut-520x700.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/RS24691_62615_06_HOCKNEY-qut.jpg 1522w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">“Untitled No. 8” from The Yosemite Suite, 2010, by David Hockney. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of David Hockney)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Hockney clearly isn’t intimidated by Yosemite or its legacy on canvas or photo stock. “He’s not afraid to play with places that are very familiar to us,” says \u003ca href=\"http://art.sdsu.edu/profiles/bridget-gilman/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bridget Gilman\u003c/a>, an assistant professor of art history at San Diego State University. “There are all these ways in which a place that’s familiar could be a launching point for some kind of experimentation with materials.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hockney’s application of iPad painting to one of the nation’s most iconic landmarks ultimately recalls John Muir’s description of the park in \u003cem>The Yosemite\u003c/em>: “From the eastern boundary of this vast golden flower-bed rose the mighty Sierra, miles in height, and so gloriously colored and so radiant, it seemed not clothed with light but wholly composed of it, like the wall of some celestial city.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-800x78.jpg\" alt=\"Q.Logo.Break\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>David Hockey’s ‘Yosemite Suite’ is on view at the Pace Gallery in Palo Alto through Sunday, May 7.

Trump is expected to be accompanied by energy executives when he signs the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a written statement, \u003ca href=\"http://www.api.org/\">American Petroleum Institute\u003c/a> president and CEO Jack Gerard said, “We look forward to working with the Trump administration and Congress on forward-looking energy policies that will help ensure the United States continues leading the world in the production and refining of oil and natural gas, and in the reduction of carbon emissions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The current head of the EPA, former Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, is a longtime critic of environmental regulation. \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/09/519499975/epa-head-scott-pruitt-doubts-basic-consensus-on-climate-change\">Earlier this month\u003c/a> Pruitt said carbon dioxide is not a primary contributor to climate change, rejecting established science. Before becoming EPA administrator, Pruitt joined dozens of other state attorneys general who sued the agency to halt the Clean Power Plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some of the policies that Trump is targeting will be easy to overturn, the Clean Power Plan could prove more complicated. Environmental law experts say it could take the administration years to fully undo it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s more on that policy and some of the others that Trump is expected to address later today:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>The Clean Power Plan\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Clean Power Plan is a set of national standards that are designed to slow human-caused climate change by limiting carbon pollution from power plants. The power sector accounts for \u003ca href=\"http://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.cfm?id=77&t=11\">almost 40 percent\u003c/a> of the country’s carbon dioxide emissions. The Clean Power Plan would cut those emissions and carbon pollution 32 percent below 2005 levels by the year 2030.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he introduced it \u003ca href=\"https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2015/08/03/remarks-president-announcing-clean-power-plan\">in 2015\u003c/a>, Obama called the Clean Power Plan “the single most important step America has ever taken in the fight against climate change.” It’s the centerpiece of the U.S. commitment to the Paris climate agreement. Donald Trump and Republicans though, have called the plan a “job-killer” and have pledged to kill it instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The senior White House official said today’s executive orders do not address the Paris climate deal. “Whether we stay in or out is still under discussion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s executive orders kick off a rule-making process with the goal of ending the Clean Power Plan. But they won’t end the policy outright, nor do they say how his administration will get rid of it, and the devil may be in the details. Any effort to repeal the rule could prove lengthy, difficult and fraught with litigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once you have something like the Clean Power Plan — a final rule-making — then that can’t be withdrawn using any process other than the one that was used to create it,” says Nathan Richardson, a visiting fellow at \u003ca href=\"http://www.rff.org/\">Resources for the Future\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means notices, public comment and a rule-making procedure that could take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration has time. Currently, the Clean Power Plan is held up in federal court after lawsuits from industry groups and states challenged its legality. A ruling could be months away and any decision — for or against the plan — will likely be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Congress could also step in and amend the Clean Air Act to say the EPA shouldn’t regulate greenhouse gases, nullifying the Clean Power Plan, but that could prove politically challenging.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Moratorium on Federal Coal Leases\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Obama administration placed a moratorium on new coal leases on federal lands \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/01/15/463164790/u-s-moratorium-on-new-coal-leases-to-be-announced-friday\">in January 2016\u003c/a>, citing concerns over pricing and pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the estimated three-year hold on leasing, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/secretary-jewell-launches-comprehensive-review-federal-coal-program\">Department of the Interior said\u003c/a> it was going to review the country’s coal-leasing program to make sure it was providing “a fair return to taxpayers and reflect its impacts on the environment, while continuing to help meet our energy needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal lands account for roughly \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/01/15/463164790/u-s-moratorium-on-new-coal-leases-to-be-announced-friday\">40 percent of all\u003c/a> U.S. coal production. Hundreds of millions of tons of coal are mined on federal lands every year, generating nearly $1.3 billion for the government in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Environmental groups say that money doesn’t offset the societal costs of pollution from coal mining and consumption. Burning coal is a leading cause of carbon dioxide emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s order to lift the moratorium should take immediate effect, allowing the Bureau of Land Management to issue new coal leases on federal lands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s not at all clear there will be any immediate rush for new leases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Coal production fell in 2016,” says Robert Godby, director of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.uwyo.edu/cee/\">Center for Energy Economics and Public Policy\u003c/a> at the University of Wyoming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, it’s fallen for several years as utilities have switched to cheaper natural gas. That means existing coal reserves have grown bigger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The coal market is so weak,” Godby says, “and some companies are coming out of bankruptcy.” He says they simply don’t have the cash to make the enormous investment required to lease federal land for future coal production.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Godby says the decline in coal leasing — and the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars a year in royalties — has been painful for Wyoming. The state had been using the money to build new schools, but is now facing a large budget deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>The Social Cost of Carbon\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The “social cost of carbon” is another Obama-era policy that directed government agencies to factor in the effects of climate change on their rule-making. It essentially put a \u003ca href=\"http://blog.ucsusa.org/rachel-cleetus/the-social-cost-of-carbon-underscores-an-obvious-fact-climate-change-is-costly\">price tag on carbon emissions\u003c/a> and told agencies to factor that price tag in when making a regulation. The current cost is \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/climatechange/social-cost-carbon\">$36 per metric ton\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump is expected to try to neuter the policy by directing the EPA to lower that cost to the point where it won’t have much weight in policy-making. An all-out elimination of the cost would likely have left the administration with weaker \u003ca href=\"http://media.ca7.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/rssExec.pl?Submit=Display&Path=Y2016/D08-08/C:14-2159:J:Ripple:aut:T:fnOp:N:1807496:S:0\">legal standing\u003c/a> should it be challenged in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration is aiming to cut federal climate change efforts across government.

Trump is expected to be accompanied by energy executives when he signs the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a written statement, \u003ca href=\"http://www.api.org/\">American Petroleum Institute\u003c/a> president and CEO Jack Gerard said, “We look forward to working with the Trump administration and Congress on forward-looking energy policies that will help ensure the United States continues leading the world in the production and refining of oil and natural gas, and in the reduction of carbon emissions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The current head of the EPA, former Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, is a longtime critic of environmental regulation. \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/09/519499975/epa-head-scott-pruitt-doubts-basic-consensus-on-climate-change\">Earlier this month\u003c/a> Pruitt said carbon dioxide is not a primary contributor to climate change, rejecting established science. Before becoming EPA administrator, Pruitt joined dozens of other state attorneys general who sued the agency to halt the Clean Power Plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some of the policies that Trump is targeting will be easy to overturn, the Clean Power Plan could prove more complicated. Environmental law experts say it could take the administration years to fully undo it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s more on that policy and some of the others that Trump is expected to address later today:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>The Clean Power Plan\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Clean Power Plan is a set of national standards that are designed to slow human-caused climate change by limiting carbon pollution from power plants. The power sector accounts for \u003ca href=\"http://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.cfm?id=77&t=11\">almost 40 percent\u003c/a> of the country’s carbon dioxide emissions. The Clean Power Plan would cut those emissions and carbon pollution 32 percent below 2005 levels by the year 2030.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he introduced it \u003ca href=\"https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2015/08/03/remarks-president-announcing-clean-power-plan\">in 2015\u003c/a>, Obama called the Clean Power Plan “the single most important step America has ever taken in the fight against climate change.” It’s the centerpiece of the U.S. commitment to the Paris climate agreement. Donald Trump and Republicans though, have called the plan a “job-killer” and have pledged to kill it instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The senior White House official said today’s executive orders do not address the Paris climate deal. “Whether we stay in or out is still under discussion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s executive orders kick off a rule-making process with the goal of ending the Clean Power Plan. But they won’t end the policy outright, nor do they say how his administration will get rid of it, and the devil may be in the details. Any effort to repeal the rule could prove lengthy, difficult and fraught with litigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once you have something like the Clean Power Plan — a final rule-making — then that can’t be withdrawn using any process other than the one that was used to create it,” says Nathan Richardson, a visiting fellow at \u003ca href=\"http://www.rff.org/\">Resources for the Future\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means notices, public comment and a rule-making procedure that could take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration has time. Currently, the Clean Power Plan is held up in federal court after lawsuits from industry groups and states challenged its legality. A ruling could be months away and any decision — for or against the plan — will likely be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Congress could also step in and amend the Clean Air Act to say the EPA shouldn’t regulate greenhouse gases, nullifying the Clean Power Plan, but that could prove politically challenging.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Moratorium on Federal Coal Leases\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Obama administration placed a moratorium on new coal leases on federal lands \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/01/15/463164790/u-s-moratorium-on-new-coal-leases-to-be-announced-friday\">in January 2016\u003c/a>, citing concerns over pricing and pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the estimated three-year hold on leasing, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/secretary-jewell-launches-comprehensive-review-federal-coal-program\">Department of the Interior said\u003c/a> it was going to review the country’s coal-leasing program to make sure it was providing “a fair return to taxpayers and reflect its impacts on the environment, while continuing to help meet our energy needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal lands account for roughly \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/01/15/463164790/u-s-moratorium-on-new-coal-leases-to-be-announced-friday\">40 percent of all\u003c/a> U.S. coal production. Hundreds of millions of tons of coal are mined on federal lands every year, generating nearly $1.3 billion for the government in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Environmental groups say that money doesn’t offset the societal costs of pollution from coal mining and consumption. Burning coal is a leading cause of carbon dioxide emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s order to lift the moratorium should take immediate effect, allowing the Bureau of Land Management to issue new coal leases on federal lands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s not at all clear there will be any immediate rush for new leases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Coal production fell in 2016,” says Robert Godby, director of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.uwyo.edu/cee/\">Center for Energy Economics and Public Policy\u003c/a> at the University of Wyoming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, it’s fallen for several years as utilities have switched to cheaper natural gas. That means existing coal reserves have grown bigger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The coal market is so weak,” Godby says, “and some companies are coming out of bankruptcy.” He says they simply don’t have the cash to make the enormous investment required to lease federal land for future coal production.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Godby says the decline in coal leasing — and the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars a year in royalties — has been painful for Wyoming. The state had been using the money to build new schools, but is now facing a large budget deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>The Social Cost of Carbon\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The “social cost of carbon” is another Obama-era policy that directed government agencies to factor in the effects of climate change on their rule-making. It essentially put a \u003ca href=\"http://blog.ucsusa.org/rachel-cleetus/the-social-cost-of-carbon-underscores-an-obvious-fact-climate-change-is-costly\">price tag on carbon emissions\u003c/a> and told agencies to factor that price tag in when making a regulation. The current cost is \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/climatechange/social-cost-carbon\">$36 per metric ton\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump is expected to try to neuter the policy by directing the EPA to lower that cost to the point where it won’t have much weight in policy-making. An all-out elimination of the cost would likely have left the administration with weaker \u003ca href=\"http://media.ca7.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/rssExec.pl?Submit=Display&Path=Y2016/D08-08/C:14-2159:J:Ripple:aut:T:fnOp:N:1807496:S:0\">legal standing\u003c/a> should it be challenged in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration is aiming to cut federal climate change efforts across government.

There’s no real definition of what a sanctuary city is, he says, meaning there’s no real congressional authorization for cutting funding to those cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, the city of San Francisco \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/01/31/s-f-files-suit-against-trump-saying-punishing-sanctuary-cities-is-illegal/\">filed a lawsuit\u003c/a> in late January against President Trump and his administration, charging that Trump’s order to strip funding from sanctuary cities amounts to an invasion of the city’s sovereignty — a violation of the 10th amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts also say that the federal government needs to define at what point they would cut off funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Daniel Stageman, director of research operations at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, says that all jurisdictions communicate with ICE to some degree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, not all jurisdictions refuse to hold people for ICE because they’re a sanctuary city, but often because they’re \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/11/19/502684089/trump-vows-to-end-sanctuary-cities-but-no-one-can-agree-what-that-label-means\">afraid of being sued\u003c/a> for detaining someone illegally, Stageman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So would jurisdictions that hold people for two hours for ICE lose funding? Or jurisdictions that hold people for 24 hours?

One possibility is a voluntary agreement, also known as 287(g). It’s something that Trump is encouraging. It allows state and local governments to outline designated roles with the federal government when it comes to immigration. Some cities have entered into these kinds of agreements. These agreements are one way of trying to work out some of these tense areas with the federal government. Orange County is the only jurisdiction with a 278(g) agreement in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Miranda Leitsinger, Penny Nelson, Lisa Pickoff-White, Scott Shafer and Julie Small contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

There’s no real definition of what a sanctuary city is, he says, meaning there’s no real congressional authorization for cutting funding to those cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, the city of San Francisco \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/01/31/s-f-files-suit-against-trump-saying-punishing-sanctuary-cities-is-illegal/\">filed a lawsuit\u003c/a> in late January against President Trump and his administration, charging that Trump’s order to strip funding from sanctuary cities amounts to an invasion of the city’s sovereignty — a violation of the 10th amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts also say that the federal government needs to define at what point they would cut off funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Daniel Stageman, director of research operations at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, says that all jurisdictions communicate with ICE to some degree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, not all jurisdictions refuse to hold people for ICE because they’re a sanctuary city, but often because they’re \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/11/19/502684089/trump-vows-to-end-sanctuary-cities-but-no-one-can-agree-what-that-label-means\">afraid of being sued\u003c/a> for detaining someone illegally, Stageman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So would jurisdictions that hold people for two hours for ICE lose funding? Or jurisdictions that hold people for 24 hours? Or not at all?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why this case is likely to make it to the Supreme Court, Johnson says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What’s an example of how these potential cuts could have an actual impact?\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>“This is broad, this is a lot.” says Stageman, who studies the federal grants, “this could affect boots on the ground.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stageman says some of the funds pay for the first year of new police officers: The City of Oakland got nearly $2 million to hire 15 new police officers in 2016; the City of Los Angeles received $3 million for 25 new officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That may not sound like a lot, but every body counts, says Craig Lally, president of the Los Angeles Police Protective League.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have enough police officers now, and we struggle every day to put enough officers in the field, just to handle simple 911 calls,” he says. “It’s becoming very tough for your average officer out there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is there any way that a sanctuary city, like San Francisco, could keep its declared status as a sanctuary city but still get the federal funding?\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>Yes, Johnson says. One possibility is a voluntary agreement, also known as 287(g). It’s something that Trump is encouraging. It allows state and local governments to outline designated roles with the federal government when it comes to immigration. Some cities have entered into these kinds of agreements. These agreements are one way of trying to work out some of these tense areas with the federal government. Orange County is the only jurisdiction with a 278(g) agreement in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Miranda Leitsinger, Penny Nelson, Lisa Pickoff-White, Scott Shafer and Julie Small contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

He said it was not unusual and that \"we go to the executive branch at least one or twice a week.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, for Schiff, it's all a problem. \"Everything is wrong with the fact that he went to the White House to obtain material that he didn't share with his own committee,\" Schiff told \u003cem>Morning Edition\u003c/em>, \"but then went back to the White House, reportedly to disclose to the White House.

Double standard:\u003c/strong> But beyond Nunes and the House investigation, the episode has revealed something else about this White House. It seems to care about leaks when the information hurts it, but doesn't think they're relevant when they help. The president and White House decried anonymous leaks in the early days of Trump's presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Monday when Spicer was asked whether this was an \"inappropriate leak,\" Spicer replied: \"No, we're not concerned about that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is a degree of irony to that when the White House was found to have asked Nunes and Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr last month to counter negative stories about Russia ties.

He said it was not unusual and that \"we go to the executive branch at least one or twice a week.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, for Schiff, it's all a problem. \"Everything is wrong with the fact that he went to the White House to obtain material that he didn't share with his own committee,\" Schiff told \u003cem>Morning Edition\u003c/em>, \"but then went back to the White House, reportedly to disclose to the White House. You know, it just doesn't add up.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes doesn't see it that way. \"I'm sure the Democrats do want me to quit,\" Nunes contended on Fox, \"because they know that I'm quite effective at getting to the bottom of things.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bottom line, though, is that it's difficult to lead an investigation when your impartiality is called into question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. Who signed him in?\u003c/strong> That brings us to a couple of problems for the Trump White House. The first is a question Spicer didn't answer at Monday's briefing: Who signed Nunes onto the White House grounds?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'll be glad to check on that,\" Spicer said. \"I'm not sure that that's how that works. But I will follow up on that point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And reporters certainly will follow up Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats will continue to beat the drum on that point, too. Here was Schiff on \u003cem>Morning Edition\u003c/em>: \"Someone on the White House staff would have had to have let him onto the grounds; it's not something he could wander onto.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Himes on \u003cem>Morning Joe\u003c/em>: we \"don't know who Nunes was signed in by at the White House.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. Double standard:\u003c/strong> But beyond Nunes and the House investigation, the episode has revealed something else about this White House. It seems to care about leaks when the information hurts it, but doesn't think they're relevant when they help. The president and White House decried anonymous leaks in the early days of Trump's presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Monday when Spicer was asked whether this was an \"inappropriate leak,\" Spicer replied: \"No, we're not concerned about that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is a degree of irony to that when the White House was found to have asked Nunes and Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr last month to counter negative stories about Russia ties. Both acted on that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes' response then to whether he had compromised his role as an investigator if he was going to do White House messenger?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
