Dont wait, call and switch today reaction tonight to new legislation in San Franciscos tenderloin district. One city leader is looking to limit new smoke shops in the neighborhood, overreachare calling it ant why would you . Its just spantibusiness. I dont want the liquor store on every corner. I dont want a tobacco shop on every corner. A new plan aimed at fighting open air drug use. Good evening. This friday, im cristina rendon, and im alex savage, one San Francisco supervisor is out with new legislation that could hinder future smoke shops from opening in the tenderloin neighborhood. The idea is to curb the us le tonight from the tenderloin with the frustration from residents and shop owners. Amber alex. Supervisor dean preston represents the tenderloin district. He says residents are concerned about the many smoke shops that have opened up, so he partnered with them to come up with this legislation. New shops that sell tobacco and related products have opened in the tenderloin in recent months, but new legislation introduced by supervisor dean preston could make it more difficult to open smoke shops in this neighborhood. These shops also sell, you know, tools and items that drug users use to get high. So then they freak in them. And then you do get crowds outside of these shops sometimes. Rene colorado supports the proposal. He lives in the tenderloin and is executive director of the Merchants Association for thisudistrict. You dont want three shops in a row, two in a row, three in the block that are selling a majority just tobacco products. The proposed legislation would require any new business where more than 10 of the store is dedicated to the sales of tobacco or related products, to have a special permit. This is block one down here with sm gift shop on. Larkin sells tobacco related products. The worker tells me the store just opened two months ago. C he says, restricting the number of smoke shops is not the answer to solving the problem of open drug use and sales. Thats the government problems, not the people problems in limited english, he tells me. Its the governments problem and not on the people who own small businesses. Residents say tobacco related products are already expensive and prices. They oppose the proposed legislation and say that itst overreach by the government. I dont agree with that because i mean, for one, why wouldnt we want more variety . You can, entrepreneurs shouldube able to have aubusiness whenever they want. If the legislation becomes law, existing businesses would be exempt. Preston tells me the next hearing will be with the Land Use Committee on march 18th. Kristina, alex and amber, is it clear how much support supervisor prestonuhas from his colleagues on on the board for this particular piece of legislation . We dont know that at this point, but he said it was with the Community Support that he came up with this legislation. Who supports him on the board . To say at this point. All right. Well have to wait and see as it makes its way through the city of San Francisco. Amber lee live for us tonight in the city. Amber. Thank you.

New at ten a professor at uc berkeley says the university is failing to protect its jewish students from violence hassner e chair of israel studies at uc berkeley. Last night, he started a sit in protest in his campus office, calling on the university to do more to protect jewish students from antisemitism. Last week, about 200 propalestinian protesters shut down a campus lecture. Hassner says some students were attacked and property was damaged. I know the administration is thinking hard about ways to mitigate that in the future. Their options are limited, berkeley is a very large administration. Things move slowly. My goal is, to light a bit of a fire under that, to demonstrate that some urgency is needed to make sure that these events do not recur to. Professor hassner hasnt left his office since 6 00 last night. He says he plans to teach, eat and sleep in his office until monday, when a jewish student rally is scheduled to happen. A jewish owned bagel shop in berkeley says that it was targeted by antisemitic graffiti. Boychik a popular bagel chain, posted this message on social media.

The generaltspelection in ne to replace east bay congresswoman barbara lee simon is vying to represent district 12 in the house of representatives and will face either Jennifer Tran or tony bart board of directors. After lee chose to run fundraisg states this weekend, hoping to capitalize on his state of the union speech. And former President Trump also plans to campaign in georgia tomorrow. Both of them are looking for ways to sway undecided voters,uincluding supporters of republican nikki haley, who so far has not endorsed trump. After dropping out of theurace. Ktvu Jana Katsuyama spoke with some haley republicans, and she joins us now live tonight with their reaction. Yeah, it takes some looking to try and find them because theyre not quite as vocal, not quite as out, but they are there and they have serious concerns. I spoke with two California Republicans who supported nikki haley. Both of them said that the president s state of the union speech they feel did not sway them. But it is a long way until november. T and getting those swing voters could be critical. President c biden left the white house friday ready to roll out on the campaign trail, fresh off his state of the union speech. Arriving in if he would debate r President Trump. Will you commit to a debate with former President Trump . It depends on his behavior. Both biden and trump are facing a divided nation where voters are seeing new fractures within their own parties. One big question is who might win over moderate republicans and other followers of nikki haley, who cast herself as a different kind of republican and a different generational choice, a stark contrast for conservatives worried about trump. He sets the tone for the party, so i like to see how this evolves, but i think the party is clearly, shifting. Christine hughes, former San FranciscoRepublican Party chair, is a haley supporter. uwe had strong conservative values. Now i feel that the party is shifting much more toward a populist party, and it is changing some republican haley supporters say theyre skeptical of trumps chances in a general election. Frankly, i wanted to win. I i just dont know that the former president can beat joe biden, theres too much baggage. Politician and businessman john cox says he would stick with the party and vote fort trump in november. Others worry about his legal troubles, and i think its going to be a major distraction for President Trump and i think its going to really challenge the Republican Party. Trump met friday with Hungarian Prime Minister viktor orban, while biden campaigned in pennsylvania some haley supports said they werent impressed or convinced by his state of the union speech, and they say theyre sick of divisiveness on both sides. Lets just not put labels on things and try to just make the best decision for the country. President biden plans to attend a fundraiser in atlanta tomorrow, and former President Trump is goinguto be holding a rally in rome, georgia. Both mr. Biden and mr. Trump plan to have those campaigns. That is a key battleground state. And the trump the biden campaign, rather, said that they are going to be going to all of those major battleground states, along with Vice President harris, within the next week. Yeah and obviously, one of the Big Questions is what happens with those supporters of nikki haley, moveutoward the generaluelection. But jana, obviously, it was notable to a lot of people that nikki haley has has dropped out of chosen to endorse anyone in the race. Is there any expectation we could see an endorsement . That is the big question, christine that with some ofuthe other candidates, you saw a very quick turnaround with nikki haley. She feels like shes glad that shes waiting because basically haley put oututhat challenge to trump. Try and convince us, try and sway us, try and try and make us want to be part of that. And well see if heucan do that. All right. Jana katsuyama. Thank you. Well, tonight the Senate Passed funding billsuto avert a government shutdown.

The color is reminiscent of the harmful algae bloom from two years ago that killed thousands of fish in the lake. We got more details on the situation from the director of the Lake Merritt Institute. Were very cautious, but we are hopeful that it is not the same type of algae that can cause these type of toxins or deoxygenation of the water.

Once tests come back, or once tests on the algae, do come back. The Lake Merritt Institute is planning to support the city of oakland with whatever action they need to take to restore the lake water.

Woooooo bill today that would invalidate any state legislation that involved nondisclosure agreements. The bill would also prohibit Public Employees from signing ndas in their official capacity. When negotiating proposed laws. The proposed bill , ab 2654, comes after reports that ndas were used in the final negotiations of the states controversial fast food minimum wage law. The law has come under scrutiny as the governor faces allegations he pushed for an exemption for one of his billionaire donors, who was also a panera franchisee. Newsoms office, which oversaw the negotiations of the fast food bill, said the governor never signed an nda and did not direct anyone to sign one. Experts note the ndas may keep us from ever e carveout ended up in the law. I have never heard of nondisclosure agreements being used to prevent the public from understanding what is being done in legislative negotiations. You know, this, carve out if you want to call it that, it was created. It was drafted, it was introduced by somebody. This did not magically appear. And so the public deserves to know what happened.

Early friday morning, a United Airlines 737 ran off a taxiway onto the grass in houston thursday. Three incidents a united 777 jumbo jet lost a wheel departing San Francisco. Another United Airlines 737 emergency landed in houston with continuous engine backfiring. Yet another, united 737 landed in newark, new jersey and experienced a stuck rudder just after touching down the common thread. All boeings all uniteds. I fly united all the time, so i wasc kind of thinking about te Maintenance Issue and why and how Something Like that could happen, but theres more wednesday in Alaska Airlines, 737 emergency landed in portland after fumes were detected midair last week, another alaska, 737 from mexico, landed in portland with a partially opened cargo door. I think a lot of places are understaffed and i think a lot of people are. You know, not having enough time to train before theyre put in positions to do really important things, like make sure doors and wheels dont come off. Im a nervous flier. I always worry about safety. I just i mean,c you got to fly to get places. T it makes me really nervous that, you know, Something Like that could happen. Now, this should calm some nerves. According to the number crunchers at the seven decades Old International air transport spassociation, in 2023, at currt safety performance levels, a person would have to travel by air every day for 103,239 years to experience a fatal accident. Heres just a few examples of how that happens. Most airliners these days have two engines here. In an airbus flight test, the plane must be able to take off even if one of its two engines fail, even dragging its tail on the ground. In this test, a wing is flexed far, far moreuthan will ever come in flight. Even with multiple backup systems, everything is confirmed in real test flights. Aviation lawyer and former federal Transportation DepartmentInspector General mary schiavo says this testing as well as multiple backup systems, is not its not an accident because theres a redundancy and sometimes not just two of everything, sometimes three or more of things. So science is on the manufacturers and airlines the strictly follow the rules.
