Tuesday Morning Topline: Federal Shutdown Impacts Air Traffic Control
"A medical helicopter crashed Monday night on Highway 50 in Sacramento, near the junction with Highway 99. All three people onboard, a pilot, a nurse, and a paramedic, were hospitalized in critical condition following the crash. [KTVU] Members of the California National Guard, who were hastily deployed to Portland by Trump but then barred from that deployment by a judge, remain in limbo."
"The president continues to refer to "violent riots" that are not happening in Portland. [Chronicle] Governor Gavin Newsom has vetoed a bill to give pay raises to Cal Fire firefighters that had bipartisan support in the state legislature. Newsom says the bill would create significant cost pressures for the state and would undermine the collective bargaining process for wages. [SFGate]"
"Current Jeopardy! champion TJ Fisher, who says he lives in San Francisco but maybe recently lived in the East Bay, talked about his hope to revive the shuttered Albany Twin movie theater during Monday night's show. Fisher is part of a nonprofit supporting the theater's revival, and he may end up using some of his winnings to bring it back to life. [Chronicle]"
A medical helicopter crashed Monday night on Highway 50 in Sacramento near the Highway 99 junction, leaving a pilot, a nurse, and a paramedic hospitalized in critical condition. Members of the California National Guard remain in limbo after being hastily deployed to Portland by Trump and then barred by a judge, while the president continues to refer to "violent riots" that are not occurring. Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed a bipartisan bill to raise Cal Fire wages, citing fiscal pressure and collective bargaining concerns. The federal shutdown forced some air traffic towers to close, delaying flights. CVS will offer the COVID-19 booster without a prescription nationwide after CDC approval. TJ Fisher, a Jeopardy! champion, supports reviving the Albany Twin theater and may use winnings to help. Celebrity chef Guy Fieri said a 24,000-bottle tequila heist forced layoffs at his company.
