President trump wants to block an expansion of voting by mail by refusing to support funds for the postal service, one of the reasons the post office is that much money is that all of these millions of ballots coming in from.

This morning, a grim new report from the San Francisco travel association predicts the city might lose nearly 11 billion dollars over the next 2 years because of falling tourism. This year San Franciscos expected to see less than half the visitors. Its all last year and only a 3rd the revenue. Not only does that mean San Francisco will have less money to pay for city services, but it could also jeopardize a lot of jobs. 1000 people last year were employed in the street, the streets are neighbors cards to friends and family members who dont have a job this year and also lot of Small Businesses that really depend on that tourist visitor in San Francisco, whether its a restaurant or Retailer Store performing arts group or our calendar you name.

Im im tipping like 40 and 50 . No word on if theyre going to revisit this idea at their next meeting so for now just a tipple tip often and as much as you can. All right well take a break it is 7. 37 still ahead on the kron 4 morning news, the rising temperatures a big concern this weekend as we talked about local firefighters are preparing for the he prepared for wildfire season weve seen a couple already break out in the southland and the worry is that might happen.

When you see this sign on a traffic signal and it says way that the button. You dont have to touch the push but we just wave your hand in front of this sign one to 3 inches away. And that is that the signal will tell you to wait until its safe to cross that this technology can be used any of that its already out there you know if you look at some of the you know paper dollar dispenser things like that. You know theres already contactfree you are able to do that today so, but we just at never talked about doing that on a protest and push button.

We see a lot of people trying to do the right thing and trying to maintain their their seasonal grasses that have dried out get that second or 3rd cut in throughout the season. But all those type of activities or looking at that stuff is excessive temperatures like this or an opportunity did to ignite a fire from a spark.
