San Francisco's SFMTA has approved a parking meter fee hike to address a budget deficit. Oakland teachers threaten a one-day strike over budget concerns.

The latest Trump immigration horrorshow story comes from Florida, where a US citizen with a valid US birth certificate and Social Security card has been detained as an unauthorized alien, merely for entering Florida from Georgia.

The SFMTA has approved a 25-cent-per-hour rate hike on parking meter fees, in hopes of tackling their massive budget deficit. There will also be a 10-cent convenience fee added for paying with your mobile phone, and the rate increases will go into effect in late May.
