His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>Sunday night was the final deadline for Gov. Gavin Newsom’s to sign or veto bills from the current legislative session — and he kept some legislators waiting until the last moments to find out if their bills were going to live or die.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the last day before the deadline, Newsom announced he had signed 870 bills into law. But Sunday’s flurry of action included more vetoes than signings, mostly for things Newsom said the state could not afford to implement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That included blocking a bill that would have required all schools to provide at least six weeks of pregnancy leave at full pay for staff. He also vetoed a bill requiring all elementary schools to have at least one full-day kindergarten program by 2022. Newsom did, though, sign into law a bill banning public high schools from starting class before 8:30 a.m. and middle schools from starting before 8 a.m. The governor’s office has \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/13/governor-newsom-takes-final-action-of-2019-legislative-season/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a full list of all the bills signed and vetoed on the last day\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last week, Newsom signed landmark legislation that ran the gamut from a ban on selling fur to a mandate that state university health centers stock abortion medication.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below is a roundup of some of the standout bills signed in the lead up to the legislative deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Health and Aging\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 24:\u003c/strong> This bill, which is the first of it kind in the U.S., requires student health centers at all 34 UC and CSU campuses to provide medication abortions. The California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls will administer a Reproductive Health Fund to pay for the upfront costs of providing this option across campuses. But eventually universities may need to dip into tax dollars or student fees for ongoing costs — a funding avenue abortion opponents are against.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 824:\u003c/strong> By Assemblyman Jim Wood, D-Santa Rosa, and sponsored by Attorney General Xavier Becerra, this is another first-in-the-nation bill. It addresses pay-for-delay agreements, which saddle prescription drug users with debt. The new law tamps down on the practice of pharmaceutical drug companies paying their generic counterparts to delay the release of cheaper versions of drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 464:\u003c/strong> The California Dignity in Pregnancy and Childbirth Act requires implicit bias training for all perinatal health care providers and better tracking of maternal deaths by the coroner’s office. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11760903/a-black-mother-told-not-to-scream-in-labor-asks-can-california-fix-racism-in-maternity-care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mortality rates among black infants\u003c/a> in California are triple those of white infants, and black women are substantially more likely to suffer life-threatening complications during pregnancy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 159:\u003c/strong> This bill by Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, provides the HIV-prevention drugs, pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP and PEP), \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/08/768313666/california-to-make-hiv-prevention-drugs-available-without-a-prescription\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">without a prescription\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Education\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 265:\u003c/strong> This amends a previous bill, the Child Hunger Prevention and Fair Treatment Act of 2017, to ensure students who receive free or reduced school lunches are offered the same meal as their peers. Previously, low-income students received an alternative lunch, which student advocates said singled them out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No more lunch shaming in CA,” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/GavinNewsom/status/1183468717939683328\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Newsom\u003c/a> tweeted on Sunday. In August, Newsom met with Ryan Kyote, a 9-year-old from Napa, who used his lunch card to cover meals for other students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CAgovernor/status/1159841764833988611\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 493:\u003c/strong> This directs the California Department of Education to train teachers on how to best support LGBTQ students in middle and high school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 982:\u003c/strong> The goal of this bill is to help students during periods of suspension stay on track with their schoolwork. The law mandates that schools provide homework assignments upon request to students suspended for two or more school days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 328:\u003c/strong> California becomes the first state in the country to mandate later start times for public schools, with the hope of improving educational success with more sleep. The law will take effect over a phased-in period, ultimately requiring middle schools to start at or after 8 a.m. and high schools to start no earlier than 8:30 a.m. The law does not apply to optional early classes or to schools in some rural areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/12/governor-newsom-signs-legislation-to-create-more-inclusive-schools-and-expand-k-12-student-protections/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a list of most of the education bills\u003c/a> signed by the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Housing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 1482: \u003c/strong>Considered the biggest victory for California renter protections in decades, this bill creates a statewide limit on rent increases of 5% plus inflation. It also requires that landlords provide a “just cause” when evicting tenants who have been renting for a year or more. The limits on rent hikes don’t go nearly as far as local rent control laws in places like San Francisco and Oakland, but it would cover millions of Californians whose units didn’t already have such protections. The bill will sunset after 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 330\u003c/strong>: From Sen. Nancy Skinner, D-Berkeley, this law aims to cut down on red tape and to speed up construction projects by making it harder for local governments to kill affordable housing developments and homeless shelters. The provision sunsets after five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 1738:\u003c/strong> On Sunday, Newsom also signed a streamlined process for creating more agricultural farmworker housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Environment\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 54:\u003c/strong> By Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, AB 54 brings temporary relief in the wake of the mass closures of recycling centers that came with the folding of RePlanet, the state’s largest recycling business. The bill provides $10 million for recycling centers and gives grocers a reprieve from paying some recycling fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 342:\u003c/strong> AB 342 rejects the Trump administration’s plans to use protected public lands for oil and gas production. It bars any state entity from entering into an agreement to authorize pipelines or other oil- or gas-related infrastructure built on state-owned land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 1057:\u003c/strong> This renames the Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources with the intent to also change the mission of the newly christened Geologic Energy Management Division. New leadership at the Department of Conservation, which oversees this division, and a new division supervisor underscore efforts to reroute the agency. The bill establishes protecting public health, safety and environmental quality as the agency’s new top priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/12/governor-gavin-newsom-signs-six-bills-to-move-california-away-from-fossil-fuels/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the full list of bills\u003c/a> aimed at limiting and regulating fossil fuels, including requiring a process for cleaning up non-floating oil and conducting testing on abandoned wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Animal Welfare\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 44:\u003c/strong> Anti-fur advocates have long sought to end the use of animals for their fur, and California is the first state in the nation to ban the creation of new fur products. Republican critics said the law was disrespectful to Native Americans, but there are exceptions in the bill for fur used by Native American tribes for traditional purposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 313:\u003c/strong> This bill would ban the use of wild animals in circus acts, including bears, elephants, tigers and monkeys. California is only the third state, after New Jersey and Hawaii to enact a ban like this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 128\u003c/strong> protects California’s wild and domestic horses from slaughter and \u003cstrong>AB 1254\u003c/strong> bans bobcat hunting, trapping or killing until 2025. Notably, \u003cstrong>SB 395\u003c/strong>, signed Sunday night, would allow drivers to eat animals that they accidentally hit and kill with their car.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Other Bills Worth Noting\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In criminal justice reform, \u003cstrong>AB 1076\u003c/strong> will make it easier for people to clear their records of old criminal offenses, \u003cstrong>AB 484\u003c/strong> give judges more leeway when sentencing offenders for certain drug crimes and \u003cstrong>SB 22\u003c/strong> requires new rape kits be submitted for testing within 20 days and actually be tested within 120 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 32\u003c/strong> bans any new contracts or contract renewals with private prisons. By 2028, the bill will also require California to stop holding inmates in for-profit prison facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With an election year just a few months away, \u003cstrong>SB 72\u003c/strong> mandates same-day voter registration starting in 2020, though voters who wait until Election Day to register won’t be counted until their registration is cleared by county officials\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, Newsom signed a number of \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/10/governor-newsom-signs-worker-protection-bills-addressing-sexual-harassment-wages-and-health-protections/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sexual harassment protection-oriented bills\u003c/a> spurred by the #MeToo movement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>reporting from the Associated Press was used in this post.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>Sunday night was the final deadline for Gov. Gavin Newsom’s to sign or veto bills from the current legislative session — and he kept some legislators waiting until the last moments to find out if their bills were going to live or die.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the last day before the deadline, Newsom announced he had signed 870 bills into law. But Sunday’s flurry of action included more vetoes than signings, mostly for things Newsom said the state could not afford to implement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That included blocking a bill that would have required all schools to provide at least six weeks of pregnancy leave at full pay for staff. He also vetoed a bill requiring all elementary schools to have at least one full-day kindergarten program by 2022. Newsom did, though, sign into law a bill banning public high schools from starting class before 8:30 a.m. and middle schools from starting before 8 a.m. The governor’s office has \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/13/governor-newsom-takes-final-action-of-2019-legislative-season/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a full list of all the bills signed and vetoed on the last day\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last week, Newsom signed landmark legislation that ran the gamut from a ban on selling fur to a mandate that state university health centers stock abortion medication.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below is a roundup of some of the standout bills signed in the lead up to the legislative deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Health and Aging\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 24:\u003c/strong> This bill, which is the first of it kind in the U.S., requires student health centers at all 34 UC and CSU campuses to provide medication abortions. The California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls will administer a Reproductive Health Fund to pay for the upfront costs of providing this option across campuses. But eventually universities may need to dip into tax dollars or student fees for ongoing costs — a funding avenue abortion opponents are against.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 824:\u003c/strong> By Assemblyman Jim Wood, D-Santa Rosa, and sponsored by Attorney General Xavier Becerra, this is another first-in-the-nation bill. It addresses pay-for-delay agreements, which saddle prescription drug users with debt. The new law tamps down on the practice of pharmaceutical drug companies paying their generic counterparts to delay the release of cheaper versions of drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 464:\u003c/strong> The California Dignity in Pregnancy and Childbirth Act requires implicit bias training for all perinatal health care providers and better tracking of maternal deaths by the coroner’s office. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11760903/a-black-mother-told-not-to-scream-in-labor-asks-can-california-fix-racism-in-maternity-care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mortality rates among black infants\u003c/a> in California are triple those of white infants, and black women are substantially more likely to suffer life-threatening complications during pregnancy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 159:\u003c/strong> This bill by Sen.

Previously, low-income students received an alternative lunch, which student advocates said singled them out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No more lunch shaming in CA,” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/GavinNewsom/status/1183468717939683328\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Newsom\u003c/a> tweeted on Sunday.

The law mandates that schools provide homework assignments upon request to students suspended for two or more school days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 328:\u003c/strong> California becomes the first state in the country to mandate later start times for public schools, with the hope of improving educational success with more sleep. The law will take effect over a phased-in period, ultimately requiring middle schools to start at or after 8 a.m. and high schools to start no earlier than 8:30 a.m. The law does not apply to optional early classes or to schools in some rural areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/12/governor-newsom-signs-legislation-to-create-more-inclusive-schools-and-expand-k-12-student-protections/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a list of most of the education bills\u003c/a> signed by the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Housing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 1482: \u003c/strong>Considered the biggest victory for California renter protections in decades, this bill creates a statewide limit on rent increases of 5% plus inflation. It also requires that landlords provide a “just cause” when evicting tenants who have been renting for a year or more. The limits on rent hikes don’t go nearly as far as local rent control laws in places like San Francisco and Oakland, but it would cover millions of Californians whose units didn’t already have such protections. The bill will sunset after 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 330\u003c/strong>: From Sen. Nancy Skinner, D-Berkeley, this law aims to cut down on red tape and to speed up construction projects by making it harder for local governments to kill affordable housing developments and homeless shelters. The provision sunsets after five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 1738:\u003c/strong> On Sunday, Newsom also signed a streamlined process for creating more agricultural farmworker housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Environment\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 54:\u003c/strong> By Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, AB 54 brings temporary relief in the wake of the mass closures of recycling centers that came with the folding of RePlanet, the state’s largest recycling business. The bill provides $10 million for recycling centers and gives grocers a reprieve from paying some recycling fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 342:\u003c/strong> AB 342 rejects the Trump administration’s plans to use protected public lands for oil and gas production. It bars any state entity from entering into an agreement to authorize pipelines or other oil- or gas-related infrastructure built on state-owned land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 1057:\u003c/strong> This renames the Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources with the intent to also change the mission of the newly christened Geologic Energy Management Division. New leadership at the Department of Conservation, which oversees this division, and a new division supervisor underscore efforts to reroute the agency.

Republican critics said the law was disrespectful to Native Americans, but there are exceptions in the bill for fur used by Native American tribes for traditional purposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SB 313:\u003c/strong> This bill would ban the use of wild animals in circus acts, including bears, elephants, tigers and monkeys. California is only the third state, after New Jersey and Hawaii to enact a ban like this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 128\u003c/strong> protects California’s wild and domestic horses from slaughter and \u003cstrong>AB 1254\u003c/strong> bans bobcat hunting, trapping or killing until 2025. Notably, \u003cstrong>SB 395\u003c/strong>, signed Sunday night, would allow drivers to eat animals that they accidentally hit and kill with their car.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Other Bills Worth Noting\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In criminal justice reform, \u003cstrong>AB 1076\u003c/strong> will make it easier for people to clear their records of old criminal offenses, \u003cstrong>AB 484\u003c/strong> give judges more leeway when sentencing offenders for certain drug crimes and \u003cstrong>SB 22\u003c/strong> requires new rape kits be submitted for testing within 20 days and actually be tested within 120 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AB 32\u003c/strong> bans any new contracts or contract renewals with private prisons. By 2028, the bill will also require California to stop holding inmates in for-profit prison facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With an election year just a few months away, \u003cstrong>SB 72\u003c/strong> mandates same-day voter registration starting in 2020, though voters who wait until Election Day to register won’t be counted until their registration is cleared by county officials\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, Newsom signed a number of \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/10/10/governor-newsom-signs-worker-protection-bills-addressing-sexual-harassment-wages-and-health-protections/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sexual harassment protection-oriented bills\u003c/a> spurred by the #MeToo movement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>reporting from the Associated Press was used in this post.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

As the outages began, lawmakers and residents expressed frustration over the rollout and the widespread nature of the cuts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom said Thursday evening that the decision to turn off power was due to the utility's inability to modernize infrastructure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What's happened is unacceptable,\" Newsom said. \"It's happened because of neglect. It's happened because of decisions that were deferred, delayed or not made by the largest investor-owned utility in the state of California, one of the largest in the nation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the future, Newsom said, the state and its residents shouldn't have to make a \"false choice\" between public safety and hardship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This can't be, respectfully, the new normal,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later Thursday, Bill Johnson, PG&E’s new president and CEO, apologized to customers: \"This is not how we want to serve you, not how we want to run our business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson said the utility did choose safety over hardship: \"I do apologize for the hardship this has caused, and I think we made the right call on safety.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson said the company will likely have to make decisions on power shutoffs in the future and acknowledged it could have done better communicating with customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We were not adequately prepared to support the operational event,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the shutoffs, the company's website crashed, maps of affected areas were inconsistent or incorrect and call centers were overloaded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Melissa Valle, a Sonoma County spokeswoman, said PG&E informed local officials that nearly all residents should have their power turned back on by late Friday. She said the county is sending residents a survey to see how the shutoffs impacted them — even if they didn't lose electricity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall, some 1.8 million to 2.4 million people may have been impacted by the cuts, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11779072/how-the-pge-outages-could-affect-millions-not-hundreds-of-thousands\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said Stanford University climate and energy expert Michael Wara on Wednesday\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of those affected included more than \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11779289/pge-power-shutoffs-keeping-over-130000-kids-home-from-school\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">130,000 students\u003c/a> across the state, whose schools shuttered for at least one day this week, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11779153/its-not-just-lights-and-tvs-outages-shut-off-medical-devices-at-home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">people with health conditions\u003c/a> who rely on electricity to power medical devices at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A man dependent on oxygen died about 12 minutes after PG&E shut down power early Wednesday in the Northern California community of Pollock Pines, the Associated Press reported.

It required utilities to transfer operational control of their transmission lines to an independent agency known as the Independent System Operator, or ISO.

It was intended to increase competition in the electricity market, and initially customers saw a drop in energy prices. But Davis soon found his agenda upended by a debacle that was largely out of his hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By May of 2000, the state power grid was short of power, initiating months of planned rolling blackouts and surging prices for electricity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of Davis' State of the State address in January 2001 was used to address California's energy crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While saying \"our job today is not to engage in an ideological debate over the pros and cons of deregulation,\" he reminded the assembled legislators that he had nothing to do with creating the crisis, adding that proponents of deregulation \"certainly didn't envision this mess, but we must face reality. California's deregulation scheme is a colossal and dangerous failure. In short, an energy nightmare.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was also a \u003cem>political\u003c/em> nightmare for Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In a period of four months in early 2001, his polling numbers completely collapsed,\" recalled Garry South, who was Davis's senior political adviser before and during the energy crisis. \"It was shocking.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11779388\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11779388\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Gray-Davis-Capitol-Energy-2001-800x625.jpg\" alt=\"Gov.

They are also asking if officials acted in coordination with the White House and without the knowledge of the federal agency’s regional staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The request comes just one day after the EPA \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2019-10/documents/sfpuc-npdes-violation-notice-2019-10-02.pdf\">notified\u003c/a> San Francisco in a letter that it had been issued a violation for “failure to properly operate and maintain the City's sewage collection and treatment facilities” and accused the city of creating a public health risk by failing to capture “substantial volumes of raw and partially treated sewage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The EPA’s reprimand came after President Donald Trump baselessly accused San Francisco of allowing used needles to wash into the ocean, and promised to cite the city for water pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Board issued a permit for the city’s Oceanside treatment plant on September 11, with the support of the EPA’s regional staff, who had been in contact with city officials for months over the facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We ask you to investigate why EPA abruptly reversed course,\" the senators wrote, categorizing the decision as contradicting the \"agency's own reasoned findings in recent permit approvals for San Francisco.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original 4:55 p.m. Sept. 26: \u003c/strong>The head of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is threatening to \"take action\" against California if the state doesn't fix water pollution problems the agency alleges may be caused, in part, by a worsening homeless crisis in cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a strongly worded \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2019-09/documents/9.26.19_letter-epa.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">letter\u003c/a> to Gov. Gavin Newsom Thursday, EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler claimed California is falling short on complying with federal environmental laws and asked the governor to provide a detailed plan for fixing the problems within a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler outlined a wide array of alleged deficiencies, including air quality problems and water pollution, and took specific aim at San Francisco. The city is one of the few major metropolitan areas that combine sewage flows and stormwater but haven't reached legal agreements with the EPA to ensure those systems comply with the Clean Water Act, Wheeler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing press reports, Wheeler claimed \"piles of human feces\" on sidewalks are becoming \"all too common\" in San Francisco. The EPA is concerned, Wheeler said, about \"pathogens and other contaminants from untreated human waste entering nearby waters\" and affecting water quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"San Francisco, Los Angeles and the state do not appear to be acting with urgency to mitigate the risks to human health and the environment that may result from the homelessness crisis,\" Wheeler wrote. \"California is responsible for implementing appropriate municipal storm water management and waste treatment requirements as part of its assumed federal program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter comes about a week after President Trump visited the Bay Area and blasted San Francisco's \"liberal\" policies, which he claimed have exacerbated the region's homelessness crisis. During his trip, Trump threatened EPA action against San Francisco, accusing the city of letting dangerous waste, including needles, drain into the ocean. That claim was \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Trump-threatens-to-cite-San-Francisco-says-city-14451275.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">refuted\u003c/a> by city officials and environmentalists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler's letter marks the latest escalation in a series of disputes between California and the federal government over environmental policies. Last week, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced he was leading a lawsuit against the Trump Administration over its decision to revoke the Golden State's authority to set its own emission standards for cars and light trucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a common theme in the news coming out of this White House this week. The President is abusing the powers of the presidency and weaponizing government to attack his political opponents,\" Nathan Click, a spokesman for Gov. Newsom, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not about clean air, clean water or helping our state with homelessness. This is political retribution against California, plain and simple.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Secretary for Environmental Protection Jared Blumenfeld said Wheeler's concerns about homelessness and water quality in San Francisco, specifically, are odd, because the city's system of combined sewage and stormflow actually leads to cleaner water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Unlike other places where water goes right from the streets into the bay or into the ocean, San Francisco has a really good system of dealing with cleaning up all the effluence coming off the streets and sidewalks,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tyler Gamble, a spokesman for San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, which oversees the treatment of the city's water, agreed. \"San Francisco never discharges untreated water into the bay or the ocean.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler's letter also cited other \"health based exeedances,\" including Los Angeles surpassing its permit limit of a potential carcinogen, the University of California exceeding its limit for copper, and part of Marin County exceeding its limit for cyanide by more than 5,000 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In total, Wheeler wrote, the alleged exceedences, \"call into question the state's ability to protect the public and administer its [Safe Drinking Water Act] programs in a manner consistent with federal requirements.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CalEPA's Blumenthal said most of the examples in the letter are \"either gross inaccuracies or misrepresentations\" about what's actually happening in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just at a meeting yesterday of all 50 environmental directors and secretaries from each of the states and the question was, 'Why didn’t other states get letters?'\" he said. \"There’s certainly similar environmental issues in all 50 states, and I think everyone acknowledged that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Blumenfeld said Wheeler's letter came as a surprise, adding that his agency \"never had any phone call from the federal government\" about the issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It definitely feels out of the ordinary,\" he said. \"It definitely feels like it isn't being done in a collaborative way to solve a problem, but really to score a political point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Mayor London Breed also characterized the move as a political statement, blasting the Trump administration's claims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’m sick of this President taking swipes at our city for no reason other than politics,\" she wrote in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As I’ve said before, there are no needles washing out to the Bay or Ocean from our sewer system, and there is no relationship between homelessness and water quality in San Francisco. It’s just not a real issue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story contains reporting from the Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom Thursday, EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler claimed California is falling short on complying with federal environmental laws and asked the governor to provide a detailed plan for fixing the problems within a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler outlined a wide array of alleged deficiencies, including air quality problems and water pollution, and took specific aim at San Francisco. The city is one of the few major metropolitan areas that combine sewage flows and stormwater but haven't reached legal agreements with the EPA to ensure those systems comply with the Clean Water Act, Wheeler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing press reports, Wheeler claimed \"piles of human feces\" on sidewalks are becoming \"all too common\" in San Francisco. The EPA is concerned, Wheeler said, about \"pathogens and other contaminants from untreated human waste entering nearby waters\" and affecting water quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"San Francisco, Los Angeles and the state do not appear to be acting with urgency to mitigate the risks to human health and the environment that may result from the homelessness crisis,\" Wheeler wrote. \"California is responsible for implementing appropriate municipal storm water management and waste treatment requirements as part of its assumed federal program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter comes about a week after President Trump visited the Bay Area and blasted San Francisco's \"liberal\" policies, which he claimed have exacerbated the region's homelessness crisis. During his trip, Trump threatened EPA action against San Francisco, accusing the city of letting dangerous waste, including needles, drain into the ocean. That claim was \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Trump-threatens-to-cite-San-Francisco-says-city-14451275.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">refuted\u003c/a> by city officials and environmentalists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler's letter marks the latest escalation in a series of disputes between California and the federal government over environmental policies. Last week, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced he was leading a lawsuit against the Trump Administration over its decision to revoke the Golden State's authority to set its own emission standards for cars and light trucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a common theme in the news coming out of this White House this week. The President is abusing the powers of the presidency and weaponizing government to attack his political opponents,\" Nathan Click, a spokesman for Gov. Newsom, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not about clean air, clean water or helping our state with homelessness. This is political retribution against California, plain and simple.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Secretary for Environmental Protection Jared Blumenfeld said Wheeler's concerns about homelessness and water quality in San Francisco, specifically, are odd, because the city's system of combined sewage and stormflow actually leads to cleaner water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Unlike other places where water goes right from the streets into the bay or into the ocean, San Francisco has a really good system of dealing with cleaning up all the effluence coming off the streets and sidewalks,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tyler Gamble, a spokesman for San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, which oversees the treatment of the city's water, agreed. \"San Francisco never discharges untreated water into the bay or the ocean.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler's letter also cited other \"health based exeedances,\" including Los Angeles surpassing its permit limit of a potential carcinogen, the University of California exceeding its limit for copper, and part of Marin County exceeding its limit for cyanide by more than 5,000 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In total, Wheeler wrote, the alleged exceedences, \"call into question the state's ability to protect the public and administer its [Safe Drinking Water Act] programs in a manner consistent with federal requirements.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CalEPA's Blumenthal said most of the examples in the letter are \"either gross inaccuracies or misrepresentations\" about what's actually happening in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just at a meeting yesterday of all 50 environmental directors and secretaries from each of the states and the question was, 'Why didn’t other states get letters?'\" he said. \"There’s certainly similar environmental issues in all 50 states, and I think everyone acknowledged that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Blumenfeld said Wheeler's letter came as a surprise, adding that his agency \"never had any phone call from the federal government\" about the issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It definitely feels out of the ordinary,\" he said. \"It definitely feels like it isn't being done in a collaborative way to solve a problem, but really to score a political point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Mayor London Breed also characterized the move as a political statement, blasting the Trump administration's claims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’m sick of this President taking swipes at our city for no reason other than politics,\" she wrote in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As I’ve said before, there are no needles washing out to the Bay or Ocean from our sewer system, and there is no relationship between homelessness and water quality in San Francisco. It’s just not a real issue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He added, however, that he was “not naive” in assuming the charter debate is over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the highly publicized charter school clash got most of the attention, hundreds of other proposals were introduced this year with potential impact on K-12 education at large. Only a fraction made it to Newsom’s desk, as with most legislation. High-profile bills to lower local parcel tax thresholds and prohibit schools from hiring teachers through third-party programs such as Teach For America, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/death-watch-the-bill-killer-is-in-the-house/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fell short of passage\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s still unclear if Newsom will sign or veto a number of measures that cleared the Legislature — he has until Oct. 13 to act.

Nancy Skinner, Democrat from Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Largely cheered by civil rights groups, the law permanently bans California public schools from suspending students in first through fifth grades for willful defiance — a justification for suspension and expulsion that supporters of the bill characterize as too subjective and disproportionately imposed on black and LGBTQ students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once implemented in the 2020-21 school year, the ban on willful defiance suspensions will be temporarily extended to students in sixth through eighth grade through 2025.

One law will allow the use of vacant armories as temporary shelters for homeless people during hazardous weather.
