Was on the employee Bargaining Team says key issues remain. We are distressing the point of safety, patient care, a patient crisis that were in now because of short staffing. And were asking that they fix that and they fix it immediately. All these strikes that we are seeing around the country have one common ailment, covid 19, and especially for health care workers. They have been hit hard. Management professor kumar mishra says the strike sends a strong message. And as at kaiser , could respond by considering various staffing options. What arrangement they have to, you know, have with the current employees, have some slack so they could use floaters, they could cross train employees say if demands arent met, theyre ready to strike longer. We have a promise to hire about 10,000 people, and that still hasnt been done yet. It does take time, but when youre not even close to the number, its just kind of show. Youre not actually putting in the work. A hospitals are still open. Doctors are not on strike. The strike is scheduled to go until friday evening, but employees tell me if no agreement is reached by friday, they will then prepare for an even longer two week strike.

Suzannephan gives us a closer look at what to expect. Lots of people are excited to check out the two navy ships that are at the port of San Francisco for fleet week. Like the fan family from walnut creek. Lindsay fan his two boys, cyrus and gannon, and their friend jonathan, are checking out the uss John P Murtha pier 30. Its a blast. Its so fun walking the ships, turning the ships getting to see some of the crew members. I just think its really interesting for nine year old gannon, its personal. Do you have some family members in the navy . Well, my moms dad, he was he worked on a destroyer. A lot of men and women in uniform are looking forward to sharing fleet week and the ship tours with visitors. Meet montana tory. Its her first fleet week. I encourage everyone to come because this is a super cool experience. I got a bunch of super cool things going on on the ship. The 15 minute tour of the uss john murtha has plenty to offer. The marine corps. They have their cannons out there showing demonstrations, guns. Theres a lot. Brendan beasley appreciates about fleet week, seeing the blue angels perform, seeing the sailors on the street and visiting the ships. I want to see where my tax dollars are being spent and its pretty cool. You know, these people are working hard. So where we are right now, this is our quarterdeck on board the ship. Visitors get to experience it all. 000 demonstrations is talking to men and women in uniform. Young Jonathan Lindquist even got to try out some gear for those with the uss john p. Murtha grateful for the visitors and the support we have a little under 400 sailors in about 220 marines on there right now. It really recharges their batteries when they get to go out and just hear those little words like, hey, thank you for your service. So were standing on the flight deck of the uss john murtha and the aircraft behind me is the mh 53. This aircraft here is one of our heavy lift helicopters. It can under sling a bunch of cargo or even a light motorized vehicles getting to see a navy ship, meeting men and women in uniform, learning more about how things work for a lot of families and visitors. Touring a ship is a worthwhile lesson. Do you want to come back . Yes. In San Francisco, suzannephan abc seven news. Well from the blue angels to the parade of ships, the bands and so much more, were helping you plan it all out. This fleet week. Weve got the full schedule of events posted on our website. Check it out on the front page of abc seven news. Com. Every time i see them flying in formation so closely, its just i dont know how they how they manage to do it its amazing thats why theyre up there and were just down here. Yes yeah well we look up we got a heat advisory and hopefully some blue skies. We do have a heat advisory. I want to start with that right now. Let me give you a look. This is in effect for the city of San Francisco and for much of the peninsula down to the Santa Cruz Mountains, the Santa Clara Valley, and across the bay around the east bay shoreline. This is from 11 a. M. Tomorrow to 11 p. M. Friday. High temperatures up to 102 degrees in the hottest locations, above average temperatures, obviously everywhere. And theres a moderate to major risk of heat related illness, especially for people either working outside or participating in outdoor activities. Now, the surface wind is calm right now, but its a little bit windier gustier in the hills. And with these winds flowing offshore now, the winds sloping downhill. The air is drying out and its warming up, heating up, i should say. And thats part of the reason we have this 24 hour temperature change. This is very impressive. 17 degrees warmer in napa, right now than at this time yesterday. 16 degrees warmer here in San Francisco, 11 degrees warmer at Half Moon Bay. Our coastal areas, many of them reached 80 degrees today. Heres a view from the mount tam camera looking down onto the bay. It is 86 degrees here in the city right now. Oakland 80, 86. Also in mountain view, 91, san jose, palo alto, 88, 72 at Half Moon Bay at the golden gate. Skies are clear and traffic is moving smoothly and its getting warm up north. Or its been warm for a while now. 93 degrees right now at santa rosa, napa, 94, 90 at novato, fairfield, 92, 88 at concord and 87 at livermore. And looking across the embarcadere from our rooftop camera, lets take a look at the forecast headlines. Clear skies overnight. No cooling coastal clouds around for a while. Itll be warm to hot. From the coast to inland through saturday and we have heightened fire concerns, obviously, under these conditions and near record high temperatures are likely in some places, especially away from the inland areas. The inland record highs are almost unachievable right now, but around the bay and on the coast, we may see some records overnight. Therell be no clouds, no cooling, coastal clouds. Itll be relatively mild to uncomfortably warm overnight with low temperatures in the low to mid 60s in most bay area locations, highs tomorrow low 80s at the coast, low to mid 90s around the bay shoreline mid to upper 90s inland and that pattern will continue into friday when it might even be hotter in some inland spots and into saturday and on sunday. Finally we get a sharp drop in temperatures and some cooling relief. But until then we have to sweat it out. Heres the accuweather seven day forecast. So again on sunday, a breezier breezy and cooler by a lot as a matter of fact and the cooling will continue on monday which is columbus day and then early next week, early to midweek well get back into maybe even a little bit below average temperature range. Certainly a comfortable change compared with what were going to see in the next few days. But the good news, if youre a blue angels fan, is that the skies will be clear. Well have great viewing conditions here in the city and all around the bay area for that, for that matter. Its going to be fantastic. It looks gorgeous. Yeah, amazing. Especially because last year i think they had to cancel the last day due to weather and stuff. So a little bit of a little bit of fog last year. Yeah, great. Not this year. Let it stay away. Yeah all right. Thanks, spencer. Celebration today marking a major milestone in Water Conservation in the south bay.

Congressman Steve Scalise and jim jordan launched their bids to try to succeed him. Therell be a Candidate Forum next tuesday with an election as early as next wednesday. It all comes after mccarthy made history yesterday, becoming the first speaker to be ousted from his leadership role by members of his own party. Eight far right republicans who are unhappy about mccarthys short term deal with democrats to keep the government funded voted to remove him. I dont regret standing up for choosing governance over grievance. I do not regret negotiating. Our government is designed to find compromise. Mccarthy has announced he will not run again for speaker. His ouster leaves congress in something of a state of chaos right now and facing a midnovember deadline to pass a funding deal. Or once again risk a government shutdown. Earlier today, we spoke with lonnie chen about the current status of the republican party. Chen was the 2022 republican nominee for california state comptroller. He says many in his party are furious with mccarthy being voted out and adds that the main problem facing the gop is that all new orders of business, including averting a government shutdown, are now placed on hold. The house cannot conduct business. The house, in essence, cannot do essentially any kind of legislative business until a new speaker is selected. Republicans are going to have to work out who that person will be, who is going to be able to garner enough support to be elected speakers. And you can watch interviews like that every day, weekday at 3 00, getting answers airs right here on abc seven. And wherever you stream, President Biden is canceling another 9 billion in student loan debt. This comes just days after the payments resumed following a three year pause. The white house says its conducting fixes to a broken student loan program. Mr. Biden announced the debt relief plan this morning from the white house. Today im announcing my administration has approved an additional 9 billion in relief for 125,000 borrowers in just the past few weeks. Under that program, with the latest debt cancel cancel and total, my administration has canceled 127 billion in student debts for nearly 3. 6 million americans. Now, the president says this kind of relief is life changing for people whove taken out student loans. He also went on to say the relief is good for the nations economy. Most bay area residents think the region is on the wrong track, according to the results of the annual Silicon Valley poll. Now this poll is based on responses from about 1900 adults around the bay area. So 78 said they think the quality of life here is getting worse. That number is even greater for parents with children at home. This years poll asked residents for their thoughts on three subjects public transit, homelessness and the struggles Downtown Town for all three of the bay areas biggest cities. For the ones that are not visiting, we said, why . Whats the reason . Whats keeping you out . And top of the list for San Francisco was that the unhoused population there is an unsettling sight disturb ing even or they even indicate that it that theres a feeling that its that its not entirely safe or sanitary. Other results. The top three reasons residents said they would consider moving out of the bay area. 67 said it would be high housing costs followed by quality of life and homelessness. Tackling the homeless problem just one way were looking to try to build a better bay area here at abc7, so were keeping track of the challenges while also working to spotlight some solutions out there. San francisco is now making it easier to get people off the streets and into housing. People will be able to get shelter without having to present proper documentation. Abc seven News Reporter ryan curry spoke with the citys Homeless Department about this change. San francisco is removing a barrier that made it difficult for some on the streets to access shelter. The Citys Department of homelessness and Supportive Housing says people can now get a temporary place to stay without documentation. Often this is a real opportunity for us to move people directly off of the street and into housing. Unhoused residents seeking shelter through the department once needed to show a drivers license or Social Security card. The Department Says oftentimes those experiencing homelessness couldnt provide those documents. What we knew was that there were a lot of people on the street who had been determined to need housing based on their vulnerability, but that the system we were using wasnt effective in getting those folks into housing. This started as a Pilot Program back in june, and so far, the Department Says it helped 19 people without documentation. Those people were then given 90 days to get the identification needed to continue receiving aid, and the department will help them. They say the goal is to get vulnerable communities, the resources they need to get off the streets and stay off the streets. Were also focused on sustainable city and really making sure that people who we who we select for this and are working with for this are surrounded with the support they need so that they can actually maintain their housing. The city says about 350 units are available right now, but officials are prioritizing aid to People Living on sidewalks instead of campers or rvs. Essentially, this was the natural next step in what we call presumptive eligibility. Were going to presume you are going to meet the needs and eligibility of this housing. Based on everything we know about you. And well worry about the paperwork later. They say they want to avoid the scenario of sending people back on the streets in San Francisco. Ryan curry, abc7 news. The price of extending bart farther into the south bay is going up way up.

The wnba is expected to announce an Expansion Team is coming to the bay area and will play at the chase Center Starting in 2025. The leagues social media account today gave more than a few clues that Something Big is coming. 2008 was the last time the wnba, they expanded. They currently have 12 teams as an expansion. Talks gained steam over the summer. Its really not a surprise that the warriors will be involved and obviously the home of the franchise. Joe lacob, who has done a brilliant job taking the warriors from a cellar dweller to a four time Championship Team with a sparkling new arena, will be leading this effort. The question is Womens Basketball in the bay . You know, will they draw . Will it be popular . I would have to think so. Dan . Well, i would think so, and certainly hope so, larry. You know better than any of us covering sports every day what the interest is. But i think clearly there has been growing interest in the wnba, the last few years. So thats great to see. So i suspect theyve done serious Market Research and they think the time is now. Yeah. And the wnba gets good tv ratings and its exciting. Basketball great basketball. So and this is if any place loves good basketball, its the bay area. So why wouldnt the team go very well here . You know, the question weve been trying to ponder upstairs is what would be the good or the best name for the team . No one suggestion was like the golden state fog, i think. God, i was about to say fog, but thats. Yeah, the only problem is if theyre playing poorly, then you have a lot of boy, they werent a fog. Fog. Exactly yeah. You can use it against them. Yeah you can weaponize the name. Yes. A growing number of adults seem to be channeling their inner child by playing with dolls again. Yep theyre uploading videos toiktok accounts that feature barbies and other kinds of dolls doing everything from modeling clothing to acting out famous movie scenes. Oh, role playing . Yeah. Experts say people crave an outlet to express themselves. And these videos scratch that itch. Its also an example of what some call kid adulting a cultural trend in which adults in particularly millennials, engage in activities traditionally considered more appropriate for children. All right. I think we should remove those barriers anyways, right . These are for adults. These things are for kids. But do you guys engage in anybody in anything thats typically associated with children . Well, you know, we do. My wife, angela, every year does a huge range for the family and a few friends. Easter egg hunt. Yeah, we do that. And you know what, kids . And its for adults. Adults love to play. And so its all adults doing it. So i would say thats the one thing we certainly do. You know, i think i think spencer and i ive talked about this many, many times. If you can stay in touch with your inner child, for lack of a better phrase, youre a happier person. Yeah, i think thats im always that inner child. Whats the kid hobby thing that you do a kid hobby. I dont think i have a kid hobby anymore. But what was that . Oh. Oh, i still hula hoop. You know that, right . Thats true. Youve seen me hula hoop a lot. Im still doing that. But you know, i think the story refers to those of us who engage in this this kid fantasy as adults and i think here in i think in our generation or our generation, im older than you guys. So the boomer generation, we are especially likely to be kidult holding on to the little kid inside. Were im a boomer, i think, larry, youre a boomer. So i think theres some some truth to that. Its nice to hang out. I mean, i like board games. I dont know if thats well, no board games. I would say, sure, sure. Board games. You played as a kid, kristen, or even new ones that i picked up like pictionary. I love that. You know, things like that battleship when you guys walk into the Sports Department and see us on the floor playing with barbies, youll know whats going on then right . Yeah, ill say whats new. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Its just wednesday. Forget the hot dogs and the toilet paper on your next trip to costco, the wholesaler is now selling one ounce 24 karat gold bars on its website for just under 2,000. Costco claims the bars are extremely popular. Theyre selling out within a few hours. Once they become available. Members are limited to buying no more than two bars. Of course, they sold jewelry for a long time, but gold bars is a different item there. Dan, is that where you go when you start hoarding your gold . The fort knox yeah. Interesting. I guess theyre doing it for investment purposes. Ive i dont even think ive ever held a gold bar so would be interesting to see. But what an interesting place to go buy them. Why not . I guess its a hedge against inflation. Its getting popularity right now. Yeah, it is. And you know, historically, gold is a good investment over the long term. And since were buying them at costco, do we get a reduced price . No. You just get huge quantities. Yes, buy in bulk, buy your gold. A giant gold bar. Its actually thats interesting. All right. Taylor swifts rumored romance with travis kelce of Kansas City Chiefs reached the white house today. Yeah. Take a listen. This President Biden think its real. The relationship i you know, in the vernacular of the National Security council, i can neither confirm nor deny those reports. Its top secret whether swift and kelce are actually a couple. She attended the last two chiefs games, though, and we have not heard of taylors making the trip to minnesota this weekend. The second time she brought an entourage of other celebrities with her. So just not even the nsa or cia or fbi can find out or tell us. I would hope that they have some other more important things to look into. But im fascinated by everybody elses fascination with this this couple that may or may not be, you know, a couple of weeks ago, they left the stadium together. But were not holding hands. So everybody was analyzing, oh, this looks more like a friend zone situation or so i dont know. She certainly seems very enthusiastic in the stands cheering so maybe more than that. I dont know. But its good fun. And larry, what is more important than taylor swift and knowing every move that shes making, of course, the nsa should be unveiled. Exactly. Yes. Yeah. No i mean, i read people i know thats thats it. When im not playing with the barbies. All right. Thats it stinging, 5timesaday,. Makeup smearing drops user. I want another option thats not another drop. Tyrvaya. Its not another drop. Its the first and only nasal spray for dry eye.

And that pattern is going to continue for a while. By the way, a heat advisory will be in effect for parts of the bay area from 11 a. M. Tomorrow to 11 p. M. Friday.

Abc7 News Reporter luis pena sat down with supervisor noelia corzo to hear how she hopes to open the doors for other latinos. Some mateo county was formed in 1856. This is one of californias oldest counties. By the late 1940s, San Mateo County was no longer a rural suburb of the city of San Francisco, but was instead a thriving industry. Full commercial and Residential Community of its own. 167 years later, a latina walked through these doors and made history here. Her name noelia corzo. And im county supervisor for San Mateo County. Noelia corzo. When was the last time there was a latina supervisor here . Never. Never. Im the first in the history of San Mateo County. We met up with noelia in the place of shaped her childhood. So this is your neighborhood . Yes. This is where you grew up. This neighborhood is the North Central neighborhood. And it is were at the king center, which is the Community Center that i grew up going to, where i learned how to swim and where i spent a lot of my time. So when you see it now, what do you see . I see my home. I see the community that that raised me. As the daughter of working class immigrants from guatemala , this community embraced her and witnessed some of the hardest moments of her life, decades before she even dreamt of becoming a government official. If you ask seven year old me, i would have said i wanted to be a veterinarian. And, you know, as when i was a teenager, i actually couldnt even think about my future because i went through something really, really devast stating. And that was the loss of my brother. My brother lost his battle with depression when i was 16 years old, and he was 22. I was a junior in high school and when that happened, you know, because my mom didnt speak english very well and because she was is absolutely devastated, i had to step up. I was 16 and i had to plan my brothers funeral. I had to make some really adult decisions. Hers later, her brother would become the motivation behind making Mental Health one of the pillars of her campaign. Her son and her mom. Some of her main inspiration to run. I was thinking about my mom, especially my mom. My mom raised me mostly as a single mom and you know, she to this day cleans houses. And she was a nanny. And being a mom, actually has informed a lot of what i do. I want my son to be happy and to have all of the opportunities that that he deserves and some that i didnt have. So what happened that you said i need to run for supervisor . What happened was covid i was president of the school board in 2020 during covid. I was a bilingual nonprofit, social worker. So working with with, you know, mostly monolingual Spanish Speaking families, all i saw was people suffering everywhere i looked. And i recognized how much power the county had to really help people during that time. Noelia corzo attributes her win to her Campaign Efforts focused on the latino and asian communities, the ones she said many had forgotten because financially she was also an underdog, raising close to 110,000 for her campaign. Her opponents raised three times that amount. How does it feel to walk here knowing that you can make a difference . Yes, it feels empowering. And also like a big responsibility that i take very seriously. What do you sit. Ill show you. I sit right here. You also have a little situation here. Whats going on . I do. Im only five feet tall, so i need a foot rest during my long meetings. Why do you think it took over 100 years to elect a latina in the board of supervisors . I think its kind of like a selffulfilling prophecy, right . You dont see people, especially women of color and higher elected office. And then you think its not possible. We belong in every single space where important decisions are made and if you dont have a chair, you bring one. In San Mateo County, luz pena, abc seven news. And thats it for abc seven news at four.
