Day Around the Bay: SEIU Pulls Endorsement of Wiener Over Prop D
"Kevin Epps was convicted in December of involuntary manslaughter for the 2016 shooting of his former brother-in-law and was sentenced to six years and eight months in prison. Judge Brian Ferrall decided against the maximum sentence of 11 years, despite prosecutors' requests for a longer term based on Epps' previous criminal record."
"The California Service Employees International Union has pulled its endorsement of state Senator Scott Wiener in the race for Nancy Pelosi's House seat, opting to endorse only Connie Chan. The union's decision stems from Wiener's opposition to Prop D, the Overpaid CEO Act, which will be on the June ballot."
