We hope to be rolling it out next week,” he told KQED on Thursday. “What you can expect in broad terms is a prohibition on seeking money bail at arraignment and a system that focuses on risk rather than wealth.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a public defender, Boudin\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11666269/s-f-man-whose-case-upended-californias-bail-system-wins-release\"> led a legal challenge to the bail system\u003c/a> that helped spur a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11374335/lawmakers-aim-to-limit-cash-bail-say-it-punishes-poor-for-being-poor\">broader conversation\u003c/a> about \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11535497/report-bail-hits-people-of-color-hard-strips-15-million-a-year-from-s-f-residents\">the fairness of making people pay money\u003c/a> to secure release from jail before they stand trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Chesa Boudin, SF District Attorney']‘What you can expect in broad terms is a prohibition on seeking money bail at arraignment and a system that focuses on risk rather than wealth.’[/pullquote]That case is still pending in front of the state Supreme Court, but in the meantime, state lawmakers \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689258/california-puts-an-end-to-cash-bail\">passed legislation\u003c/a> in 2018 to end money bail in California. The law, however, has been on hold after the bail industry gathered enough signatures \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11707702/referendum-to-block-bail-law-appears-headed-for-ballot\">to put the question before voters\u003c/a> this November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin said his office won’t wait for that decision to move forward with a\u003ca href=\"https://www.chesaboudin.com/end_money_bail\"> key campaign promise of his\u003c/a>: to no longer use money to determine whether someone is safe enough to be released before trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve spent many years fighting to end wealth-based detention. I think it puts public safety at risk by allowing wealthy people who are dangerous to buy their freedom, and it also undermines the integrity of the criminal justice system by allowing us to detain people who present no public safety risk simply because of their poverty,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My office is well aware of my views on that. And my assistant district attorneys are waiting patiently for us to give them a clear written guideline,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin, who made waves last week when he \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11795676/why-did-san-franciscos-new-district-attorney-fire-seven-prosecutors\">fired seven top prosecutors in the District Attorney’s Office\u003c/a>, also defended that decision in his interview with KQED. He said it’s common for a new executive to make major personnel changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s certainly true in the Police Department, the Mayor’s Office, all the way up to the president of the United States. It would be shocking, frankly, for a newly elected or appointed official not to make changes in their command staff,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin said he’s “excited to be able to continue building a team that shares the vision the voters elected me to implement,” and he doesn’t believe the staff changes will hurt morale in the office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='chesa-boudin' label='Related coverage']He noted that prosecutors have lived with uncertainty for months after former District Attorney George Gascón’s decision\u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/San-Francisco-District-Attorney-George-Gasc-n-13276393.php\"> not to seek reelection\u003c/a> — and then Gascón’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11778096/san-francisco-district-attorney-george-gascon-resigns\">resignation\u003c/a> just weeks before the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think morale’s been low for the last year … there was a significant number of people leaving the office, partly because of the uncertainty around the transition,” he said. “But so far, people seem to be really excited. And I know there’s a lot of work I have to do to support the staff and make sure that they have the resources they need to do the job.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin also spoke about his decision to implement a \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB394\">new state law\u003c/a> that will let parents and caregivers accused of nonviolent crimes enter a diversion program aimed at keeping families together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The program allows people facing misdemeanor charges and nonviolent felonies to participate in a two-year, community-based program that will include parenting classes. If they are successful, the charges will be dropped. People accused of committing a crime against their children cannot apply, and a judge must be convinced that the person won’t pose an unreasonable risk to public safety if they are allowed to enter diversion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin, whose parents\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11786689/chesa-boudin-not-your-average-district-attorney\"> went to prison when he was a toddler\u003c/a>, said giving young kids the opportunity to stay with their family is a cause that’s “near and dear” for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='bail' label='Related coverage']“I grew up visiting my own parents in prison, and so many of the childhood friends I made in the prison visiting room ended up incarcerated themselves,” he said. “I saw the ways in which parental incarceration undermines public safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He noted that in addition to the trauma of separation, a criminal conviction can pose more practical problems to families — preventing a parent from getting a job and providing for their children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are hopeful that we can get parents who are facing criminal convictions to engage with the kind of programming, supervision and support that will allow them to play the role we so desperately need them to play in their families, in our communities,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin said he’s not sure how many cases would be eligible for diversion, and noted that some defendants might decide not to participate — even if they are eligible — because they’d rather take their case to trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Tara Siler contributed reporting to this post.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Rather, she returned it unsigned, allowing the measure to become law — but not without expressing her reservations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=7906098&GUID=37345889-CDDE-487E-B0D7-1AC6AC5695CB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">letter\u003c/a> to the board, Breed said she does support generating cash for affordable housing, but she voiced frustration over the particular measure, saying it wasn't financially feasible and that it could hurt small businesses, among other issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I remain concerned that this legislation, while well intended, will not produce the revenue it promises for affordable housing,\" Breed wrote, arguing that the measure's $400 million funding promise was misleading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Haney, it was clear that the mayor was trying to send a message.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a little unclear to me what the point of it was, at this stage, when it is going to become law,\" he said. \"It certainly raises questions as to whether she's going to be able to be independent from some of the bigger developers and different forces in the city to be able to work with us when we challenge the status quo.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, both the progressive faction and Breed's wing have more upcoming elections to consider as they navigate changing power dynamics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November 2020, six seats on the Board of Supervisors will be open, which could be an opportunity for progressives to further isolate the mayor. It could also be an opportunity for Breed to regain allies. Four years later, the mayor will be up for re-election once again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How things turn out could come down to two things: Whether Breed will be able to use internal rifts within the progressive block that inevitably come along with a growing majority to her advantage, and whether progressives can pin Breed between a rock and hard place by passing pieces of legislation that, as McDaniel puts it, \"make her oppose things that are popular in the city as a whole,\" like more affordable housing and police reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

It also attracted $650,000 in negative campaign ads from the San Francisco Police Officers Association, which claims he'll go soft on hardened criminals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We talked with Boudin about all that and more. Here are some interview highlights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Learning He Won on the Plane Home After Visiting His Father in Prison\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was in the middle seat in coach class. ... I was with my fiancee. And so we had a little kind of private moment in our seats. The person next to us was pretty confused about what was going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We went into the visiting room on Saturday morning with a pretty good sense that we were going to win. We knew there were still counting happening, but we knew the remaining, I think 15,000 or so votes were were provisional and conditional ballots with a very good sense those would favor us. We were already in the lead. And so, you know, we had that conversation with my dad over vending machine coffee and potato chips. And it was happy. He's proud. I think he's like so many parents would be in this situation. He's anxious about the stress and the pressures that this job will entail for me and for my fiancee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"chesa-boudin\" label=\"Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On How He Felt About His Parents Being Imprisoned\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On one hand, I was very, very angry for many years at them for participating in such a horrific crime and for doing it in a way that so jeopardized my own well-being and safety. I also felt as a child the sense of stigma and shame as though it was somehow my fault. This is a really common experience for children with incarcerated parents to have to feel that, you know, they could have prevented the harm, that they should have warned their parents not to do it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would often say to my adoptive parents in moments of emotional difficulty as a child, I'd say things like, 'If only I could have talked, I would have warned them not to go or things like if if I'd been more lovable, maybe they wouldn't have risked losing me.' Feelings that as an adult with maturity, in hindsight, I know are irrational, but which are really common among children whose parents commit crimes. And I was lucky, luckier than most children with parents who were in prison to have a tremendously supportive network of family and friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On How His Father's Incarceration Influences His View of the Criminal Justice System\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think my dad appreciates a few things. One, that, you know, having lived in prison for now, 38 years, he appreciates more than probably any of us that there are some people who are tremendously violent and who are probably not safe to be my neighbor or your neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He understands that in a way that few other people could, because having been in prison maximum security for 38 years, he has seen it all. He's now 75-years-old and he lives on a cell block with people who are much younger than I am.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he also understands in a way that few of us could that the criminal justice system and prisons as they exist today are mostly not making us safer and are mostly actually creating more violence, both inside prisons and when people come home to communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so he is hopeful, as I am, that the work I do as district attorney will help to reimagine and transform our country's approach to crime and punishment in ways that decrease our reliance on prisons and make us safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Spending Time in Venezuela as a College Student\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I had studied abroad in Chile on a Rotary International scholarship as a junior in college from Yale. I had a lot of friends in Chile. And so during that gap year, I went back to Chile and I backpacked from Chile all the way up to Venezuela, up the Andes through Ecuador. And then I boated down the Amazon River through Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Brazil. And I actually read the Jon Lee Anderson Che (Guevara) biography while I was on a boat on the Amazon River, which was a fun, fun way to pass the time. When when I got to Venezuela, I didn't know anybody, I'd never been there before and I had one friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Working With Those Who Opposed Him in the Campaign\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm committed to listening to everybody who has experience and who has a perspective on the criminal justice system, to community groups, to merchants associations, to hardworking men and women in the Police Department, in the Sheriff's Department. And I think, obviously, to other leaders in city government. And I want to work with everybody. I know that we're going to have some disagreements about what specific approaches and policies are best. That's part of the democratic process. I also know that we can broadly agree that what we all want is a more just criminal justice system and one that's more effective at preventing crime and and holding people accountable in ways that dignify victims and prevent recidivism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

A deputy public defender, Boudin took on the city's political elite and Mayor London Breed's hand-picked interim-D.A., Suzy Loftus, and won.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His life story — radical parents incarcerated when he was a toddler for their role in an armed robbery as part of the Weather Underground — attracted national media attention. It also attracted $650,000 in negative campaign ads from the San Francisco Police Officers Association, which claims he'll go soft on hardened criminals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We talked with Boudin about all that and more. Here are some interview highlights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Learning He Won on the Plane Home After Visiting His Father in Prison\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was in the middle seat in coach class. ... I was with my fiancee. And so we had a little kind of private moment in our seats. The person next to us was pretty confused about what was going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We went into the visiting room on Saturday morning with a pretty good sense that we were going to win. We knew there were still counting happening, but we knew the remaining, I think 15,000 or so votes were were provisional and conditional ballots with a very good sense those would favor us. We were already in the lead. And so, you know, we had that conversation with my dad over vending machine coffee and potato chips. And it was happy. He's proud. I think he's like so many parents would be in this situation. He's anxious about the stress and the pressures that this job will entail for me and for my fiancee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I also felt as a child the sense of stigma and shame as though it was somehow my fault. This is a really common experience for children with incarcerated parents to have to feel that, you know, they could have prevented the harm, that they should have warned their parents not to do it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would often say to my adoptive parents in moments of emotional difficulty as a child, I'd say things like, 'If only I could have talked, I would have warned them not to go or things like if if I'd been more lovable, maybe they wouldn't have risked losing me.' Feelings that as an adult with maturity, in hindsight, I know are irrational, but which are really common among children whose parents commit crimes. And I was lucky, luckier than most children with parents who were in prison to have a tremendously supportive network of family and friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On How His Father's Incarceration Influences His View of the Criminal Justice System\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think my dad appreciates a few things. One, that, you know, having lived in prison for now, 38 years, he appreciates more than probably any of us that there are some people who are tremendously violent and who are probably not safe to be my neighbor or your neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He understands that in a way that few other people could, because having been in prison maximum security for 38 years, he has seen it all. He's now 75-years-old and he lives on a cell block with people who are much younger than I am.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he also understands in a way that few of us could that the criminal justice system and prisons as they exist today are mostly not making us safer and are mostly actually creating more violence, both inside prisons and when people come home to communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so he is hopeful, as I am, that the work I do as district attorney will help to reimagine and transform our country's approach to crime and punishment in ways that decrease our reliance on prisons and make us safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Spending Time in Venezuela as a College Student\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I had studied abroad in Chile on a Rotary International scholarship as a junior in college from Yale. I had a lot of friends in Chile. And so during that gap year, I went back to Chile and I backpacked from Chile all the way up to Venezuela, up the Andes through Ecuador. And then I boated down the Amazon River through Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Brazil. And I actually read the Jon Lee Anderson Che (Guevara) biography while I was on a boat on the Amazon River, which was a fun, fun way to pass the time. When when I got to Venezuela, I didn't know anybody, I'd never been there before and I had one friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Working With Those Who Opposed Him in the Campaign\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm committed to listening to everybody who has experience and who has a perspective on the criminal justice system, to community groups, to merchants associations, to hardworking men and women in the Police Department, in the Sheriff's Department. And I think, obviously, to other leaders in city government. And I want to work with everybody. I know that we're going to have some disagreements about what specific approaches and policies are best. That's part of the democratic process. I also know that we can broadly agree that what we all want is a more just criminal justice system and one that's more effective at preventing crime and and holding people accountable in ways that dignify victims and prevent recidivism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>In a razor-close election, Chesa Boudin, a deputy public defender promising to emphasize reform over incarceration, has defeated interim District Attorney Suzy Loftus in the race to be San Francisco's next district attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After an additional 14,000 ballots were tallied Saturday, the San Francisco Department of Elections gave Boudin a lead of 2,439 votes over Loftus. With just 1,200 ballots remaining, Loftus conceded via Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I didn't win the race — but we won the support of so many San Franciscans who are demanding that our city work more effectively together to build safety,\" Loftus \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/suzyloftus/status/1193326321419444224?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tweeted\u003c/a>. \"Congratulations to Chesa Boudin. I will work to ensure a smooth and immediate transition.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a tweet shortly after the results were announced, Boudin simply said, \"We did it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When we started this campaign, we believed that the people of San Francisco wanted a different vision of justice,\" he later told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We believed they valued second chances for those who have made mistakes, prized compassion over punishment, and wanted equal justice for all, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation and citizenship. We were right.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/chesaboudin/status/1193341605958180864?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin's extraordinary life story — his parents, who were members of the radical leftist group the Weather Underground, were both incarcerated when he was just 14 months old for their role in a 1981 armed robbery that left three men dead — led him to a career as a deputy public defender in San Francisco. His father, David Gilbert, remains incarcerated at a maximum security prison in western New York State, where Boudin still visits him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin's emphasis on diverting people away from the criminal justice system and toward rehabilitation was an inspiration for supporters of criminal justice reform, even as it disturbed members of the law enforcement community who worry he'll give low priority to crimes such as auto break-ins, which plague the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the city's ranked-choice voting system, the second- and third-place votes from the lower-place finishers — Alameda County Deputy District Attorney Nancy Tung and Deputy Attorney General Leif Dautch — were redistributed to the top two candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With Boudin prevailing, it sends a stunning rebuke to the city's establishment, which endorsed Loftus. Most notably, that includes Mayor London Breed who appointed Loftus interim D.A. just weeks before the election, as well as Gov. Gavin Newsom. and U.S. Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another nail-biter, and further rebuke to Brown, challenger Dean Preston declared victory Saturday over incumbent Supervisor Vallie Brown, another appointee of Breed's, in the District 5 supervisorial race, as his margin grew to 170 votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today is a victory for all San Franciscans seeking bolder answers for the challenges our city faces,” said Preston in a press statement. “This was a hard-fought election and I am so grateful for the long hours of volunteer effort and grassroots, community support that brought our campaign across the finish line. But now the campaign is over, and I am ready and eager to begin serving our city as soon as possible.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Breed easily won reelection on Tuesday, the defeat of her ally on the Board of Supervisors could further stymie her agenda, as the more centrist mayor has struggled to get a six-vote majority with the left-leaning board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race between Loftus, a former prosecutor and police commissioner who most recently worked as legal counsel to San Francisco County Sheriff Vicki Hennessy, and Boudin, a progressive, attracted national attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Police Officers Association (POA) on Wednesday sent a sharply worded \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6541518-Letter-to-Supervisor-Sandra-Fewer-11-6-19.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">letter\u003c/a> to Supervisor Sandra Lee Fewer, who led chants of \"Fuck the POA\" at the election night party for Boudin.

His father, David Gilbert, remains incarcerated at a maximum security prison in western New York State, where Boudin still visits him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boudin's emphasis on diverting people away from the criminal justice system and toward rehabilitation was an inspiration for supporters of criminal justice reform, even as it disturbed members of the law enforcement community who worry he'll give low priority to crimes such as auto break-ins, which plague the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the city's ranked-choice voting system, the second- and third-place votes from the lower-place finishers — Alameda County Deputy District Attorney Nancy Tung and Deputy Attorney General Leif Dautch — were redistributed to the top two candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With Boudin prevailing, it sends a stunning rebuke to the city's establishment, which endorsed Loftus. Most notably, that includes Mayor London Breed who appointed Loftus interim D.A. just weeks before the election, as well as Gov. Gavin Newsom. and U.S. Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another nail-biter, and further rebuke to Brown, challenger Dean Preston declared victory Saturday over incumbent Supervisor Vallie Brown, another appointee of Breed's, in the District 5 supervisorial race, as his margin grew to 170 votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today is a victory for all San Franciscans seeking bolder answers for the challenges our city faces,” said Preston in a press statement. “This was a hard-fought election and I am so grateful for the long hours of volunteer effort and grassroots, community support that brought our campaign across the finish line. But now the campaign is over, and I am ready and eager to begin serving our city as soon as possible.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Breed easily won reelection on Tuesday, the defeat of her ally on the Board of Supervisors could further stymie her agenda, as the more centrist mayor has struggled to get a six-vote majority with the left-leaning board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race between Loftus, a former prosecutor and police commissioner who most recently worked as legal counsel to San Francisco County Sheriff Vicki Hennessy, and Boudin, a progressive, attracted national attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Police Officers Association (POA) on Wednesday sent a sharply worded \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6541518-Letter-to-Supervisor-Sandra-Fewer-11-6-19.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">letter\u003c/a> to Supervisor Sandra Lee Fewer, who led chants of \"Fuck the POA\" at the election night party for Boudin.

They decided the fate of several ballot measures, including Proposition C, which would have overturned a citywide ban on selling or distributing e-cigarettes. Two housing measures appear headed for victory, including a $600 million affordable housing bond championed by Mayor London Breed. Meanwhile, there’s still no victor in the close contest to elect San Francisco’s next top prosecutor. Thousands of vote-by-mail ballots still remain to be counted. The race between interim District Attorney Suzy Loftus and Deputy Public Defender Chesa Boudin remains too close to call. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Joe Eskenazi, managing editor and columnist, Mission Local\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Erika Aguilar, KQED senior editor, housing affordability desk \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Dozens of Lawmakers Want to Turn PG&E Into Customer-Owned Utility\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Monday, San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo led a coalition of mayors and supervisors in urging the California Public Utilities Commission to convert bankrupt utility PG&E into a customer-owned cooperative. More than two dozen lawmakers from Northern and Central California have signed on to the effort, representing roughly 5 million PG&E ratepayers. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom met with PG&E CEO Bill Johnson in Sacramento. Last Friday, the governor announced the appointment of a new statewide energy czar, Ana Matosantos, and said the state could take over PG&E if it doesn’t emerge from bankruptcy by the start of next year’s wildfire season. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Loretta Lynch, California Public Utilities Commission former president\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“Who Owns Silicon Valley?”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A yearlong collaboration between KQED, The Mercury News, NBC Bay Area and other Bay Area news outlets investigated top landowners in Silicon Valley and their role in an affordable housing crisis that’s led to sky-high rents and hours-long commutes for many workers. The team of reporters working on the series found that Stanford University’s property holdings are worth nearly $20 billion, more than Google, Apple and Intel combined. Also this week, Apple announced it would commit $2.5 billion to combat the housing crisis, with CEO Tim Cook saying in a statement announcing the donation that the tech giant was “committed to being part of the solution.” The company joins Google and Facebook, which have also recently pledged $1 billion each to build more affordable housing and fight homelessness. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rachael Myrow, KQED senior editor, Silicon Valley news desk\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

They decided the fate of several ballot measures, including Proposition C, which would have overturned a citywide ban on selling or distributing e-cigarettes. Two housing measures appear headed for victory, including a $600 million affordable housing bond championed by Mayor London Breed. Meanwhile, there’s still no victor in the close contest to elect San Francisco’s next top prosecutor. Thousands of vote-by-mail ballots still remain to be counted. The race between interim District Attorney Suzy Loftus and Deputy Public Defender Chesa Boudin remains too close to call. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Joe Eskenazi, managing editor and columnist, Mission Local\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Erika Aguilar, KQED senior editor, housing affordability desk \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Dozens of Lawmakers Want to Turn PG&E Into Customer-Owned Utility\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Monday, San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo led a coalition of mayors and supervisors in urging the California Public Utilities Commission to convert bankrupt utility PG&E into a customer-owned cooperative. More than two dozen lawmakers from Northern and Central California have signed on to the effort, representing roughly 5 million PG&E ratepayers. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom met with PG&E CEO Bill Johnson in Sacramento. Last Friday, the governor announced the appointment of a new statewide energy czar, Ana Matosantos, and said the state could take over PG&E if it doesn’t emerge from bankruptcy by the start of next year’s wildfire season. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Loretta Lynch, California Public Utilities Commission former president\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“Who Owns Silicon Valley?”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A yearlong collaboration between KQED, The Mercury News, NBC Bay Area and other Bay Area news outlets investigated top landowners in Silicon Valley and their role in an affordable housing crisis that’s led to sky-high rents and hours-long commutes for many workers. The team of reporters working on the series found that Stanford University’s property holdings are worth nearly $20 billion, more than Google, Apple and Intel combined. Also this week, Apple announced it would commit $2.5 billion to combat the housing crisis, with CEO Tim Cook saying in a statement announcing the donation that the tech giant was “committed to being part of the solution.” The company joins Google and Facebook, which have also recently pledged $1 billion each to build more affordable housing and fight homelessness. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
