Cisco to 77, livermore, 91, san jose from 81 to 86.

There have been no major issues, if you are driving on the mountain, freeways are not too bad.

We have had a small delay on the bay bridge getting to fremont street, because of an earlier wreck. Age 32, lets go back to gasia. New this morning, the weekly jobless report was released earlier today. It shows nearly 3. 2 million americans filed for first time on employment claims last week. This brings the total to 33 million in just the past seven weeks. The government will issue the april jobs report tomorrow morning. Economists say it will likely reveal the highest Unemployment Rate we have seen since the great depression. And california has already paid out close to 8 billion in jobless benefits. But many californians, who have been approved for the program, say they are not getting their money quick enough. The money was once issued in the form of a check from the plumbing development department. Now it is on a bank of america debit card and some are being asked to use the cards if they dont have anymore. Others are saying they never got a card. 2700 was in a cloud summer, because i never had any access to that money. Meanwhile, rent is due, the phone is due they did not reissue me a new card. They would, they wanted me to use the old card. I did not have that card in my possession any longer. Jasmine perez went on to say she tried calling to get a card reissued and says she was not able to get through until she called in the middle of the night. Paul says his card arrived six weeks after he applied for unemployment insurance. The government says they are aware of the problems and are trying to make it easier for people to get the benefits they have earned. President trumps as he has changed his mind about disbanding the Coronavirus Task force and now says the mission of the group as the country begins to reopen. The president says the task force will continue indefinitely, but he will add people to it, and he will be focused on getting the u. S. Economy back on track. Democrats are pushing for funding for state and local governments. Some republicans say they are reluctant to spend more money. We are not ruling that out, but we think they do a good job says we want to wait and see . Tell that to someone who has just lost his job, wait and see. President trump has said he wants a payroll tax cut to be part of the next relief package. The Restaurant Industry going to make recommendations to Governor Newsom later today about what best way to really reopen all the restaurants across the state. Fox 2s allie rasmus joins us. Yes, we dont know when restaurants in our state will reopen for Indoor Dining. There is no timeline on that just yet. But, when they do eventually, imagine going into a small restaurant with tight spaces and seeing plastic partitions separating your table from everyone elses. That is one of the recommendations the California Restaurant Association is recommending to the governor. Some of the others include things like only seating in the same household there, only family members, no large parties or groups, eliminating the buffets, sand salad bars, and bringing out Hand Sanitizer instead of salt and pepper shakers. Eliminating shared chip and bread baskets. The association plans to send this list of ideas to the governor today. Meanwhile, local leaders across california and in the bay area are discussing other ways to reopen restaurants. The city of san mateo is considering a plan that would close off sections of downtown streets to allow restaurants to set up tables in those stories. We know that because of social distancing, restaurants arent going to be able to use all their tables. And in order to open doors, they are going to have to have spaces out in the open air. San mateo city leaders are talking about banning cars on sections of 25th avenue and other neighborhoods with several restaurants. As for the statewide California Restaurant Association guidelines, the group says it is okay with the idea of including employees to have regular temperature checks. But the association is wary of having restaurants do the same thing for customers. Their concerned restaurants may be sued by customers who feel they have been wrong will wrongfully turned down because of temperature checks. Reporting live, allie rasmus, ktvu fox 2 news.

This Police Commission is simply out of control, and they fired her, because she refused to go along with their efforts to exceed their own authority. If a member of the Oakland Police department treated a member of the public the way this commission has treated the chief, they would be fired or reprimanded immediately. The Mayors Office did nothing about her reports and she was later fired without cause. The Police Commission and mayor have yet to comment on the complaint, the city has 45 days now to respond.
