The ere in california just a drop in the bucket of money used to be made. Reduced state and local revenues from the covid19 shutdown may theres no estimate on when the clubs and bars can give them back their livelihood. Layoffs in our public schools. What do you think is the i dont think it will be back likelihood of Congress Passing a to how it used to be with clubs bill to fill that revenue gap and stuff. And try to prevent this outcome . Until probably another year. All the deejays tell us they let me be honest, i think just hope the music doesnt go quiet. Its going to be a while.

Once one is developed. The center of what the relief we have more on the complex plan experts are now trying to work out. Today. And always. Package will look like but theres clearly some political divides here on how much money plus, a teenager hits the should go to the states, and i streets but not to protest. Think this, will california get its what he did after the some money in this next relief protests cleared out thats getting him recognized in a big bill, and do i think something way. Well explain. Will happen in july but i thought it would be this month but, again, i think were delayed here because of this belief, well, things arent as bad as we thought. Lets see what another few weeks looks like. My guess is california, like other states, will keep coming back to congress and saying, okay, thank you for this but were still laying people off. If you look at the last jobs number, you saw nearly over half a million of the job losses in different in different sectors, half a million were just in the state and local government sectors this is already beginning t. Could be a real drag on the economy but i do think because of political divides the amount of money y3wvny y1s6y california needs is not what theyre going to get and theyre going to have to keep coming back and asking for more. Oh, boy. Never have enough time with you as we wish we could so going to take a turn it our other national crisis, the Police Brutality protests, demonstrations. President trump has actually not addressed the nation in the past two and a half weeks regarding this sunday, another police this Police Brutality movement. Shooting. The Fatal Shooting of an what do you think is keeping the africanamerican man after a president from weighing in on the issue and do you think it struggle with Atlanta Police will impact him if he doesnt . Leads to angry protests and the immediate resignation of the citys police chief. I do not believe that this was a justified use of deadly well, i think if he addressed force. Well have the lates from atlanta. This as coast to coast the issue, they would say hes address it had many times. Marches. I just want justice and we i know what you mean, a formal just want a plan to create a puy address. He has been told by people he trusts politically that it may not help and it could do more harm than good. System that works for everyone. We wont be defunding our you see these efforts, for police. We instance, to try to build momentum for Police Reform. Theres a bipartisan consensus starting to grow on capitol hill, but his instincts are not there yet. Good morning. It is sunday, june 14th. Flag day as we take a live look outside, calm and clear streets in san pedro square. Im kira klapper. Meteorologist rob mayeda is in for vianey with a look at our microclimate forecast. It felt humid out there which is not very typical for us. To start out the morning with misty skies, near 60s is not too typical for us. Its a little muggy. San francisco, you have some mist there on the camera lens. Not a lot of wind to start the day. San jose more overcast skies and, yes, with the clouds, morning low temperatures near 60 degrees. Its probably going to take a little while before they break up around the south bay. Then get into the afternoon, see the clearing and our temperatures are going to stay relatively muggy probably through about mid morning. Youll notice its still in the 70s by noon and then the skies start to clear and we get the sunshine. The areas in orange you see 80s showing up in the valleys today. The sevenday forecast moving forward as youre about to see the temperatures climbing wednesday and thursday. Were talking about a chance of 90s making a comeback.

At least youre as racial high across the country a bay area neighborhood dispute thats getting a lot of attention. The man tells us he was approached because one couple felt he couldnt possibly live in a nice neighborhood. Hi, im asking you if this is your property. Why are you asking . Because its private property. James juanillo shot that video of the confrontation as he was stenciling black lives matter in chalk on his homes retaining wall. This video now has more than 8 million views on twitter. Juanillo, who is filipino, tells us he quickly realized this was going to be an uncomfortable confrontation so he pulled out his cell phone to document the moment. Its important that this not just be in the castro or the soma that it be in the marina where people who neede woke. This is the kind of assumption that shows us a lot about how far we have to go. That was John Newmeyer who coowns the Pacific Heights home where juanillo and his husband have lived for nearly two decades. This woman has since been identified as lisa alexander, the ceo of Skin Care Company laface. At least one company, birchbox, which had been associated with laface, has since denounced her actions. A demonstration in vallejo to demand justice for 22yearold Sean Monterrosa who was shot and killed by police last week. Yesterday was an emotional march from city hall to the Vallejo Police department which already is under heavy scrutiny over recent police shootings. We spoke to one person who tells us she witnessed Vallejo Police kill her brother in 2012. Its not okay what the police are doing. None of this should be justified. He was shot by police as they were responding to reports of looting. Officers believed monterrosa had a gun but it turned out to be a hammer. Body camera video has not yet been released but in response to the protests Vallejo Police Officers Association released this statement on its Facebook Page reading, quote, it should be concerning to people that small children are brought to protests with open air marijuana smoking, foul, vile language, screaming, angry mob mentality, and profound anger directed at the police. How to have a civil discussion is what adults should be reaching children. Now to a quickly developing story protests are raging in atlanta and last night they came to a climax after another black man was shot and killed by police. It happened friday night outside of a wendys restaurant. Rayshard brooks was shot while he tried to escape arrest. Last night that wendys was set on fire. Demonstrators were seen surrounding the fire truck that responded as well as blocking freeway traffic. Atlantas mayor and others are calling brooks death an unjustified use of deadly force. The police chief already resigned less than 24 hours after the deadly shooting. The officers involved have since been identified as Garrett Rolfe and Devin Brosnan on your right. Rolfe has since been fired. Officer brosnan was placed on administrative duty. Around the country from the west coast to the east coast, l. A. To philadelphia, protesters continue to march in the third weekend of demonstrations as the movement for Police Reform is not letting up. In new york the governor has and in seattle protesters occupy the chaz, the capitol hill autonomous zone where police abandoned their precincts. And at the point 5,000man march in richmond, George Floyds cousin reminded the crowd why theyre in the streets. You carry the weight of a nation that refuses to lift its knees from the necks of my people. It is shining a spotlight on the past. Kentucky has removed its 12foot statue of Jefferson Davis from the State Capitol and in South Carolina a statue of Christopher Columbus has been taken down after it was vandalized several times in the last week. President trump made a trip to west point to deliver the commencement address and spoke of unity, diversity and service. The president continues to vow to use the military to respond to unrest. A crucial moment in american history, we are restoring the fundamental principles that the job of the american soldiers not to rebuild foreign nations. To defend and defend strongly. Our nation from foreign enemies. The president thanked the National Guard with a clear reference to protests. West point, by the way, had 1,100 in its graduating class.
