Trump admin proposes offshore drilling; CA officials, environmentalists balk
By City News Service
Following through on earlier pronouncements, the Trump administration announced Thursday it will reopen ocean waters off the Pacific Coast to oil drilling leases, generating rapid opposition from California officials and environmentalists.
The announcement by the U.S. Department of the Interior called it an effort to address the nation’s “growing energy needs” and “boost United States energy independence and sustain domestic oil and gas production.”
The directive calls for the potential lease of 34 offshore drilling sites between 2026 and 2031 -- 21 off the coast of Alaska, seven in the Gulf of Mexico and six along the Pacific Coast.
“Offshore oil and gas production does not happen overnight. It takes years of planning, investment, and hard work before barrels reach
the market,” Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum said in a statement. “The Biden administrationslammed the brakes on offshore oil and gas leasing and crippled the long-term pipeline of America’s offshore production. By moving forward with the development of a robust, forward-thinking leasing plan, we are ensuring that America’s offshore industry stays strong, our workers stay employed, and our nation remains energy dominant for decades to come.”
According to the department, a 60 public-comment period on the proposal will begin when it is published in the Federal Register on Monday.
Gov. Gavin Newsom called the proposal “idiotic” and said it “endangers our coastal economy and communities and hurts the well-being of Californians.”
“This reckless attempt to sell out our coastline to his Big Oil donors is dead in the water,” Newsom said in a statement. “Californians remember the environmental and economic devastation of past oil spills. For decades, California has stood firm in our opposition to new offshore drilling, and nothing will change that. We will use every tool at our disposal to protect our coastline. It’s interesting that Donald’s proposal doesn’t include the waters off Mar-a-Lago.”
California Attorney General Rob Bonta also blasted the proposal.
“Time and again, President Trump has shown that his interest lies with his Big Oil friends profiting at the expense of our environment and public health,” Bonta said
in a statement. “California takes our responsibility to steward our environment and natural resources seriously -- we are not a rich man’s playground, and the president cannot come and extract resources as he pleases.
“California will not stand by while the Trump administration marches in and make a mess of our coastal towns and waterways in order to line the pockets of its wealthy friends. The livelihoods of millions of Californians depend on the economies and industries supported by our coastal areas. My office stands fully opposed to this plan and is committed to protecting California’s natural resources.”
Orange County Coastkeeper also rejected the proposal.

Residents launch effort to recall
By Joe Taglieri joet@beaconmedianews.com
Arcadia residents upset with a recent censure against current Mayor Sharon Kwan that was led by Councilman David Fu launched a campaign Monday to remove him from office.
A petition signed by 81 residents seeks approval from city and county authorities to begin collecting signatures for a recall election.
Fu is a first-term council member elected in November 2024 and represents Council District 1. The district extends northward from Duarte Road into hillside communities above Foothill Boulevard, with Santa Anita and North Fifth avenues serving as western and eastern borders.
Recall proponents say their effort stems from Fu’s alleged “pattern of retaliation, misuse of authority, fiscal recklessness, and disre-
gard for the City Charter,” according to a notice of intent submitted Monday.
At the Aug. 19 council meeting, Fu initiated efforts to censure and remove Kwan.
According to recall proponents, the next day Kwan was scheduled to meet with an investigator regarding a sexual harassment complaint she filed against Fu.
“The timing raises serious concerns of retaliation and abuse of power,” the notice document states.
Residents seeking Fu’s removal contend he “brought accusations against the Mayor despite no proof and no public demand for a censure.”
Fu along with Councilmen Paul Cheng and Dr. Michael Cao then called for a special meeting on Aug. 26, which recall proponents

Mistrial in case of ex-detective charged in shooting that paralyzed man
By Terri Vermeulen Keith, City News Service
With jurors declaring theyweredeadlocked after roughly two days of deliberations, a judge Wednesday declared a mistrial in the case of a former Whittier police detective charged with assault for an on-duty shooting that left a man paralyzed just over 5 1/2 years ago.
The jury’s foreman told Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge George Lomeli that the panel was split 7-5 in favor of guilt on two of the charges and 8-4 in favor of guilt on the other two charges against Salvador Murillo.
The 44-year-old former detective is charged with two felony counts each of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and assault under the color of authority, along with allegations that he caused great bodily injury.
Murillo is due back at the downtown Los Angeles courthouse Jan. 13 for a pretrial hearing.
After the mistrial was declared, defense attorney Vicki Podberesky maintained that “Mr. Murillo is innocent of any misconduct,” and called the case “a tragedy all the way around.”
Murillo’s attorney said she believes it would be
prudent for the District Attorney’s Office to realize the danger her client felt he was in during the April 30, 2020, foot pursuit of Nicholas Carrillo, but added that the defense would otherwise be prepared to retry the case.
In his closing argument last Nov. 14, Deputy District Attorney Ryan Tracy told jurors that Murillo “used more force than was reasonable in this case” and did not have to fire four times at Carrillo, who was struck twice in the back. But Murillo’s attorney countered that her client was “rapidly making decisions” within a 21-second time frame and believed Carrillo was going to shoot him during a foot pursuit.
Authorities subsequently determined that Carrillo was not armed with a weapon and did not have a gun inside his vehicle.
The prosecutor told jurors that the issue is whether Murillo acted in self-defense of himself or others, saying that Carrillo was running away and was unarmed when Murillo shot him twice in the back, “ruining his life” and “permanently paralyzing

him.”
Murillo testified in his own defense during the week-long trial.
The former detective’s attorney reminded jurors in her closing argument about Murillo’s account of the man moving and turning his body, saying that the officer with 15 years on the job testified that he believed Carrillo was going to fire at him moments after the man “rammed” the undercover detectives’ vehicle and then fled from his own vehicle.
She said her client believed at the time that a gun was stashed in Carrillo’s waistband.
The defense lawyer noted that Murillo did not suspect that then- Whittier police Detective Cynthia Lopez was the one who had fired the first three shots he heard because they were in a “crossfire situation” with a patrol officer nearby.
Podberesky -- who asked the panel to acquit her client of all four charges -called it a “lawful shooting” and said the prosecution had to prove that Murillo did not act in self-defense.
In his rebuttal argument, Deputy District Attorney Jason Quirino countered
that the evidence had shown that Murillo “did not have the right to use deadly force.”
The prosecutor alleged that the defendant was “not telling you the truth” when he testified that he didn’t realize that Lopez had fired the initial series of shots because it “looks very bad for him” that Carrillo hadn’t fired any shots.
“Does that mean Mr. Carrillo is an angel? By no
means,” Quirino said, while noting that people often run from the police but don’t often get shot. “He certainly shouldn’t have been shot.”
The vehicle that Carrillo was driving -- which authorities said may have been used by a woman during a confrontation with a store loss prevention officer after a TV was taken -- was followed into the alley by the two detectives

The White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation
By Robert Faturechi and Avi Asher-Schapiro, ProPublica
nlineinfluencer
Andrew Tate, a selfdescribed misogynist who has millions of young male followers, was facing allegations of sex trafficking women in three countries when he and his brother left their home in Romania to visit the United States.
“The Tates will be free, Trump is the president. The good old days are back,” Tate posted on X before the trip in February — one of many times he has sung the president’s praises to his fans.
But when the Tate brothers arrived by private plane in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, they immediately found themselves in the crosshairs of law enforcement once more, as Customs and Border Protection officials seized their electronic devices.
This time, they had a powerful ally come to their aid. Behind the scenes, the White House intervened on their behalf.
Interviews and records reviewed by ProPublica show a White House official told senior Department of Homeland Security officials to return the devices to the brothers several days after they were seized. The official who delivered the message, Paul Ingrassia, is a lawyer who previously represented the Tate brothers before joining the White House, where he was working as its DHS liaison.
In his written request, a copy of which was reviewed by ProPublica, Ingrassia chided authorities for taking the action, saying the seizure of the Tates’ devices was not a good use of time or resources. The request to return the electronics to the Tates, he emphasized, was coming from the White House.
The incident is the latest in a string of law enforcement matters where the Trump White House has inserted itself to help friends and target foes. Since entering office for a second term, Trump has urged the Justice Department to go after elected officials who investigated him and his businesses, and he pardoned a string of political allies. Andrew Tate is one of the most prominent members of the so-called manosphere, a collection of influencers, podcasters and content creators who helped
deliver young male voters to Trump. And news of the White House intervention on behalf of the accused sex traffickers comes as Trump is under fire over his ties to notorious child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his administration’s recent efforts to stop the public release of the so-called Epstein files.
Ingrassia’s intervention on behalf of Tate and his brother, Tristan, caused alarm among DHS officials that they could be interfering with a federal investigation if they followed through with the instruction, according to interviews and screenshots of contemporaneous communications between officials.
One official who was involved and spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid facing retribution said they were disgusted by the request’s “brazenness and the high-handed expectation of complicity.”
“It was so offensive to what we’re all here to do, to uphold the law and protect the American people,” the person said. “We don’t want to be seen as handing out favors.”
It’s unclear why law enforcement wanted to examine the devices, what their analysis found or whether Ingrassia’s intervention hindered any investigation. The White House and DHS declined to answer questions about the incident.
But law enforcement
experts said it is highly unusual for the White House to get involved in particular border seizures or to demand authorities give up custody of potential evidence in an investigation.
“I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” said John F. Tobon, a retired assistant director for Homeland Security Investigations, which typically analyzes the contents of electronic devices after they’re seized by Customs and Border Protection. “For anyone to say this request is from the White House, it feels like an intimidation tactic.”
Tobon said that even if authorities resisted the request from Ingrassia, knowledge that the White House opposed their actions could cause them to be less aggressive than they would normally be:
“Anytime somebody feels intimidated or as if they’re not free to follow procedure, that’s going to stay in the back of their mind because of the consequences. In this administration the consequences are different, people are getting fired.”
Samuel Buell, a Duke University law school professor and former federal prosecutor, called the pressure on behalf of the Tates “another data point” in the White House politi-
cizing law enforcement.
“This is not something that would have been viewed as appropriate or acceptable prior to 2025,” Buell said. “There’s a pattern here of severe departure from preexisting norms … that are being tossed aside left and right.”
The Tate brothers’ lawyer, Joseph McBride, said he didn’t know what happened to the devices but that his clients have still not had them returned. He said it’s unclear whether any investigation into their contents is continuing. His clients, he said, are innocent and there were no illicit materials on their electronics. “There have been multiple investigations against them and nothing has come of it,” McBride said.
Ingrassia worked at McBride’s firm before joining the White House, and McBride acknowledged speaking “to Paul from time to time” but couldn’t recall discussing the seized devices with him. Ingrassia, he said, has never given the Tates special treatment since joining the Trump administration.
The White House declined to answer questions about whether Ingrassia was acting on his own or representing the White House’s wishes.
In a brief interview with ProPublica, Ingrassia denied trying to help the Tates, before hanging up. “There was no intervention. Nothing happened,” he said. “There was nothing.”
Ingrassia’s lawyer, Edward Paltzik, said in a text message: “Mr. Ingrassia never ordered that the Tate Brothers’ devices be returned to them, nor did he say — and nor would he have ever said — that such a directive came from the White House. This story is fiction, simply not true.”
When questioned about whether Ingrassia had asked authorities to return the devices, even if he did not order them to, Paltzik declined to comment, explaining that “the word ‘ask’ is inappropriate because it is meaningless in this context. He either ordered something or he didn’t. And as I said, he did NOT order anything.”

A DHS spokesperson did not respond to specific questions about the intervention or any impact it might have had on an investigation, only saying in a statement that Customs and Border Protection “performed a 100% baggage examination and detained all electronic media devices when the Tate Brothers entered the country. Electronic media devices were detained and turned over to Homeland Security Investigators for inspectional purposes.”
Ingrassia’s work at McBride’s small New York law firm included helping to represent the Tate brothers. He has praised Andrew Tate’s “physical prowess” on social media along with his “willpower and spirit,” calling him “the embodiment of the ancient ideal of excellence.”
Ethics experts said when government officials take actions to benefit former clients, it undermines public trust.
“The rule of law cannot be carried out if it depends on cronyism,” said Virginia Canter, a former government ethics lawyer who served in the administrations of both parties. “To have a member
of the White House interfere when they’ve had a prior client relationship and some sort of personal relationship, that gives rise to questions of impartiality.”
Trump had nominated Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel, but the 30-year-old lawyer’s chances for Senate confirmation imploded after Politico reported that he had sent a string of racist text messages to fellow Republicans and described himself as having “a Nazi streak.” Paltzik, his lawyer, raised doubts about the authenticity of the texts but said “even if the texts are authentic, they clearly read as self-deprecating and satirical humor.”
In a post on X announcing he was withdrawing from his Senate confirmation hearing because not enough Republican lawmakers were supporting him, Ingrassia said he would “continue to serve President Trump and this administration to Make America Great Again.”
Two weeks ago, Ingrassia announced he was moving to a new role within the administration, after Trump called him into his office and asked him to serve as
Andrew Tate
deputy general counsel at the General Services Administration.
It’s unclear what prompted authorities to seize the Tates’ property, but the bar for searching electronic devices is significantly lower for those entering the U.S. compared with those already in the country, even if they are citizens.
After the seizure, the contents were examined by federal agents with Homeland Security Investigations, according to the official involved. A Homeland Security official, who asked for anonymity because they didn’t have permission to speak publicly, confirmed that HSI agents scrutinized the contents.
The Tates left the United States in late March.
No criminal charges have been filed against the brothers in the United States, though a lawyer representing four anonymous defendants sued by them in Florida filed court papers this year suggesting that federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York were investigating the pair. No other details
have become public, and a spokesperson for the prosecutors’ office declined to comment.
In an interview with conservative podcaster Candace Owens soon after landing in Florida, Andrew Tate revealed his devices had been seized, saying they were taken after he refused to give customs officers his passwords.
Tate, who was born in the U.S. but spent much of his childhood in Britain before moving as an adult to Romania, complained that his rights were violated, calling himself “one of the most innocent people on the planet.”
And he said law enforcement officials wouldn’t find anything on his devices: “You think I sleep with a phone full of evidence? You think I don’t wipe my phone every night? You think I’m dumb? Come get me.”
In that interview, Tate made no mention of a White House official intervening on his behalf and seemingly misidentified state authorities in Florida as responsible for taking his devices.
Shortly after the Tates landed on Feb. 27, Gov. Ron DeSantis and state Attorney General James Uthmeier announced that Florida authorities had launched an investigation into the brothers. Uthmeier said his office had “secured and executed subpoenas and warrants” and called the brothers’ behavior “atrocious.”
“These guys have themselves publicly admitted to participating in what very much appears to be soliciting, trafficking, preying upon women around the world,” he said at the time. “We’re not going to accept it.”
The status of the Florida investigation is unclear. A
spokesperson for the Florida attorney general declined to comment for this article.
Allegations of sexual abuse and violence have swirled around Andrew Tate for almost as long as he’s been in the public eye. In 2016, Tate was booted off the cast of the British version of the “Big Brother” reality series around the time a video emerged of him whipping a woman with a belt. Tate said he and the woman were joking.
Tate’s profile only rose afterward, and he began amassing a following as a self-help guru for young men. He quickly aligned himself with Trump’s thenyoung MAGA movement.
“The tate family support trump FULLY. MAGA!” he posted on social media after meeting with Donald Trump Jr. at Trump Tower in 2017.
Tate moved to Romania a year after his brief foray in reality TV, in part, he said, because he believed authorities there investigate sex crimes less aggressively.
“I’m not a … rapist but I like the idea of being able to do what I want,” he said.
But in 2023, prosecutors in Romania accused the Tates of operating a criminal group that trafficked women, including some who alleged the brothers led them to believe they were interested in relationships but instead forced them into filming online pornographic videos. Prosecutors also said they were investigating allegations that the Tates trafficked minors. Andrew Tate was charged with rape. The Tates have denied the allegations, and the initial charges against them were sent back to prosecutors by a court because of procedural issues.
The Tates face similar allegations in Britain.
Authorities there authorized a raft of charges against the brothers, including rape and human trafficking, based on allegations from three women. In 2024, arrest warrants were issued for the brothers, who have denied wrongdoing, but authorities said they would not be extradited to the United Kingdom until criminal proceedings in Romania were completed.
A woman has also sued the Tates in Florida, accusing them of luring her to Romania to coerce her into sex work. The Tates have denied the allegations, and last month a judge dismissed most of her claims but allowed for her to refile.
This year, Tate derided the allegations against him and compared himself to Trump on X. “Romania? No case UK? No case USA? No case,” he posted on X. “Lawfare? – Im one of the most mistreated men in history beside president Trump himself.”
The intervention on behalf of the Tates was not the first time those around Trump took an interest in legal issues involving the brothers.
In February, Romania’s foreign minister said that presidential envoy Richard Grenell told him at an international security conference in Germany that he remained interested in the fate of the Tates. “I did not perceive this statement as pressure,” the foreign minister, Emil Hurezeanu, said, “just a repeat of a known stance.” Grenell told the Financial Times that he had “no substantive conversation” with Hurezeanu but supported “the Tate brothers as evident by my publicly available tweets.” Republished with Creative Commons License (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0).
2026 Medicare costs rising in CA, across US
By Suzanne Potter, Public News Service
The federal government just announced 2026 Medicare cost increases.
Medicare Part B premiums are going up almost 9.7%, or about $18 a month, which will eat up part of next year’s annual Social Security cost-ofliving adjustment. In addition, the deductible for a hospital admission under Medicare Part A will go up by $60.
Tatiana Fassieux, education and training specialist for the nonprofit California Health Advocates through its Senior Medicare Patrol, said patients will need to carefully balance their budgets.
“Not only do you have to think about your potential health care spending dollars for next year, but also,
how is that Social Security income going to offset any increases in your Medicare costs?” Fassieux noted.
Part B premiums will rise by $17.90 for a total cost of $202.90. On the upside, the Social Security cost-of-living increase for 2026 means checks will go up by approximately $56. Meanwhile, older Americans have some choices to make about their Medicare coverage.
Medicare open enrollment runs about two more weeks, through Dec. 7 for people who want to change their Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage plan. Fassieux pointed out the airwaves are flooded with ads for plans with all kinds

of goodies but said people really need to be sure the plan includes your local doctor and covers your medications.
“Don’t succumb to the enticements that you see on television with free spending cards for groceries,” Fassieux cautioned. “Be more specific as to your needs, your finances and your providers.”
The state-funded Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program provides free and objective information and counseling about Medicare as well as a list of local offices.

Despite protests, UC regents approve continuance of ‘tuition stability’ plan
By City News Service
In spite of vocal opposition from students at University of California campuses across the state, the UC Board of Regents voted Wednesday to maintain a “tuition stability” program that allows for tuition hikes of up to 5% annually, but locks in the tuition cost for incoming students for up to six years.
The plan approved by the board also reduced the amount of tuition revenue that is directed to financial aid from 45% to 40%.
The regents’ meeting at UCLA was disrupted by protesting students, who repeatedly chanted at one point during the board’s discussion, prompting the panel to call a recess and have the meeting room cleared.
Students protested for much of the day outside the board meeting.
“Students should not be fighting for our lives,” Diego Emilio Bollo, president of the undergraduate student association at UCLA, said during a rally at the campus.
Bollo urged UC offi-
cials to fight for additional funding from the state Legislature and the federal government, and not rely on students as the university’s “backup budget plan.”
The Board of Regents approved the tuition stability plan in 2021, and it took effect in 2022. The university billed the system as a way of offering students and their families stability by holding their tuition rate
the same throughout their time in college.
But the system also allows for annual increases of up to 5%, meaning new incoming students wind up paying more for tuition than the previous class. Tuition for in-state students who started at a UC school this fall was $14,934, up from $12,570 in 2021. The out-of-state tuition was $50,328.
more devastating oil spills,” Garry Brown, founder and president of Orange County Coastkeeper, said in a statement. “This is an intrinsically dangerous industry with a long record of catastrophic failures, like the Refugio Santa Barbara spill in 2015 and the Amplify Huntington Beach spill in 2021. Our coastal communities, marine ecosystems, and local economies will pay the price while a single special interest reaps the benefits.
“This extreme drilling proposal is not in favor with California’s communities and voters,” he said. “Public polling shows broad bipartisan opposition to new offshore drilling because people across the political spectrum understand it’s wrong for the California coast. Offshore drilling devastates
marine ecosystems, threatens coastal economies, and burdens taxpayers, with Californians gaining very little in return.”
Sean Bothwell, executive director of California Coastkeeper Alliance, said state residents “strongly oppose this plan, which threatens our waters, coastal ecosystems and the health of coastal communities and economies.”
“We urge Governor Newsom, along with state and federal leaders, to stand up to the Trump administration and protect California from this latest attack on our waters,” he said in a statement.
According to the Interior Department, as of Sept. 1, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management manages 2,073 active offshore oil and gas leases covering about 11.2 million acres and account-
ing for roughly 15% of the nation’s domestic oil output.
The Outer Continental Shelf is estimated to contain about 68.8 billion barrels of oil and 229 trillion cubic feet of natural gas yet to be discovered, according to the agency.
“Offshore oil and gas development requires longterm vision, steady policy, and the confidence for companies to invest in American energy. For years, that confidence was undercut by the Biden Administration’s failed leasing policies,” Jarrod Agen, executive director of the National Energy Dominance Council, said in a statement.
“By putting a real leasing plan back on track, we’re restoring energy security, protecting American jobs, and strengthening the nation*s ability to lead on energy for decades to come.”

Government shutdown, trade wars hit farmers’ bottom line hard
By Claire Carlson for The Daily Yonder, via Stacker
For Wendy Johnson, a livestock and organic grain farmer in Charles City, Iowa, October is usually the time she visits her local Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) office.
There, she sits down with one of their employees and goes over the practices she implemented on her farm over the past year, along with documentation that proves she met the requirements of whichever U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) contract she was operating under. Once that’s done, she gets paid for the work she did.
But this October was no normal year for Johnson and thousands of other farmers who rely on USDA contracts to operate their farms.
That’s because of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, which started on Oct. 1 and didn’t end until Nov. 12. Throughout the shutdown, federal offices were closed, and most government employees were furloughed, including the people who help farmers like Johnson access USDA grants.
“I can’t even ask questions to my local NRCS office for planning for 2026 because they’re not open,” Johnson told the Daily Yonder before the shutdown ended. “I am
starting to think, ‘are they just going to close forever?’
That would be awful.”
The shutdown came as a double-whammy to farmers who were already dealing with the fallout of tariffs that went into effect earlier this year.
Prices for soybeans plummeted because China, once the largest buyer of U.S. soybeans, stopped purchasing them in response to high U.S. tariffs, shrinking the soybean market for farmers. On Oct. 30, China agreed to start buying U.S. soybeans again at 25 million metric tons per year, settling some of the issues soybean farmers have faced throughout 2025.
But input costs like fertilizer prices remain high due to retaliatory tariffs from countries like Canada, where most of the potash fertilizer American farmers rely on is imported from. That means the cost to farm is rising while commodity prices are diminishing.
High interest rates on loans mean farmers might accumulate more debt to make ends meet, especially if payments on USDA contracts continue to be delayed.
All of this, in combination with a government
shutdown, could create a lethal storm for American farmers.
“When you’re removing those cost-share opportunities while simultaneously putting tariffs into place… they’re asking for an explosion,” Johnson said.
Other farmers fear the impacts of this “explosion” on the future of agriculture.
Gene Stehly, a soybean, corn, and wheat farmer who lives near Mitchell, South Dakota, has been farming for 46 years. He started farming during the 1980s farm crisis when hundreds of thousands of farmers defaulted on loans and just as many left the business completely, gutting large swaths of rural America that had been built by small and midsize producers.
Stehly said that while he’s always been concerned about the state of agriculture, he’s more worried now than ever before as the value of commodities diminishes.
“I worry about younger people that are trying to get started that have borrowed a lot of money and are trying to get through next year, and they love to farm,” Stehly said. “I just hate to see the younger generation have a tremendous setback
in the next five years or so.” Farming has become almost unviable for small and midsize producers because of how tight the profit margins can be. The Biden administration was attempting to improve this by increasing staff at USDA offices and allocating more funds to conservation programs via the Inflation Reduction Act, but much of this work has been paused or totally reversed by the Trump administration. Earlier this year, more than 2,000 USDA staff were laid off, many of whom worked for NRCS, implementing Biden-era
conservation programs.
“We don’t have folks in county offices that can help design the kind of conservation practices that would help farmers save money,” said Jesse Womack, a policy specialist at the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition. “Good conservation helps farmers reduce reliance on inputs [like fertilizer], and that can make you more profitable per acre.”
Making farmers more self-reliant can make it easier for them to stay in business during times like a government shutdown or
a tariff war. But with mass layoffs and the reversal of conservation funding, many farmers’ wheels are now left spinning in place.
“We are watching a lot of our leaders in this country totally ignore how difficult producers have it right now and really neglect their duty to make tools and services readily available and easy to use for producers,” Womack said.

Advocates: Weakened auto lemon law hurts consumers
Manufacturers have recalled millions of cars in 2025 due to safety defects and consumer groups said a newly weakened “lemon law” in California is not doing consumers any favors.
Ford alone has issued more than 100 recalls so far in 2025, affecting more than 8 million vehicles. Yet new rules this year in the Golden
State made it harder to get a defective car fixed or replaced.
RosemaryShahan, president of Consumers for Auto Reliability and Safety, said Assembly Bill 1755, which took effect in January, primarily benefits car manufacturers.
“It shortened the time period during which you can use the lemon law,” Shahan pointed out. “It makes
By Suzanne Potter, Public News Service
it harder to even get an attorney to represent you. It requires you to give formal, written notice directly to manufacturers if you want to use the lemon law.”
Ford did not respond to a request for comment but the firm’s CEO has said a shortage of mechanics is affecting the company’s ability to make repairs in a timely fashion. The
bill’s co-author, Sen. Tom Umberg, D-Santa Ana, said in a statement the bill “is a necessary step towards streamlining and strengthening California’s Lemon Law to get drivers out of the judicial system and back on the road more quickly.”
Shahan noted lawmakers actually passed a second bill, Senate Bill 26, as an urgency measure. It made
the new law optional for manufacturers.
“What they ended up doing was giving manufacturers a choice, whether they would opt into the changes to the lemon law or live with the old lemon law,” Shahan explained.
“So now we have this twotiered system where Toyota didn’t opt in, but GM, Ford, Chrysler opted into the new
law.”
Ford is suing major consumer law firms handling lemon law cases. Shahan argued it is problematic that the CEO of the American Arbitration Association is married to a top Ford executive, alleging Ford insists disputes involving lemon law fees are heard by the association and not other arbitration firms.

As tens of millions of Americans prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving with turkey-based dinners, Los Angeles’ sizable vegan community is readying for the holiday in much the same way — only without the birds.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, more than 46 million turkeys will be killed for Thanksgiving dinners this year. The dichotomy of showing gratitude by feasting on turkeys doesn’t seem right to many animal advocates.
“Turkeys are curious, playful, intelligent animals — yet every Thanksgiving, tens of millions of them endure short, miserable lives on factory farms before being killed in terrifying, painful ways,” according to People for The Ethical Treatment of Animals.
PETA is promoting the seventh year of “ThanksVegan,” a campaign aimed at encouraging people to enjoy a meat- and dairy-free holiday out of compassion. This year, the animal rights group is asking supporters to order a free “turkey tombstone” online, which reads “Here Lies the Corpse of a Tortured Bird.” People are instructed to attach the small item “to the turkey corpse your family has in the kitchen or one you see at a store using tape, string, a clip, a toothpick, or any other tool,” photograph it and share the photo with at least one non-vegan.
More information, including recipes, can be found at peta.org/thanksvegan.
Farm Sanctuary in Acton is conducting its 39th annual Adopt A Turkey Project. For a donation of $35, people can symbolically adopt a rescued turkey or sponsor an entire flock for $135, allowing the animals to live out their natural lives at one of the group’s spacious farms. The group has been sponsoring the program since 1986, and several of the turkeys’ stories can be viewed at farmsanctuary.org/adopt-a-turkey.
Kindred Spirits Care Farm in Chatsworth is hosting a compassionate Thanksgiving Day celebration, with tickets available online via tinyurl.com/35n2eupu.
“Thanksgiving, like so many holiday meals, can be disheartening for vegans. Not only is there very little for us to eat as a rule, but at most Thanksgiving meals we have to sit at a table with a dead turkey. For those of us who have had gentle, affectionate turkeys fall asleep in
LA’s vegan community seeks Thanksgiving alternatives
our laps, it can be very difficult to see one being carved up in front of us,” sanctuary officials said.
“Many of us can’t bear it, so we find ourselves alone on a day that traditionally centers family,” they continued. “Some of us have found a sense of family with other vegans and we have our own celebration. Here at Kindred Spirits Care Farm, we take it one step further and flip the script altogether. We let the turkeys do some feasting complete with pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce, and other delightful treats that are turkey appropriate.”
The Gentle Barn, a nonprofit animal sanctuary in Santa Clarita, is offering something a little different this year: Turkey Cuddle Therapy. Organizers say turkeys are intuitive and naturally affectionate, and the program is great for people going through stress, grief, trauma or depression, or just to brighten someone’s day.
One-hour sessions for those 14 and older are available for a $200 donation to support care for The Gentle Barn’s residents. For $35, donors can participate in the sanctuary’s Turkey Guardian program, with the money helping provide care for the 18 turkeys who live both in the Gentle Barn’s Santa Clarita and Nashville locations.
Los Angeles’ largest in-person vegan event for the holiday is the Vegan Thanksgiving Potluck in the Cheviot Hills area south of Century City. It takes place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day at 2551 Motor Ave., near the Cheviot Hills Recreation Center. Held annually for more than 20 years, the potluck typically draws hundreds of people, and features live music and an open mic.
Everyone is welcome and the event is free, with attendees asked to bring a vegan dish of any kind.
Although it’s still the holiday meal of choice for the overwhelming majority of U.S. households, turkey production is slowly declining nationwide. According to Trace One, a company with over 30 years of experience in regulatory compliance for the food and beverage industry, per-capita turkey production peaked in 1996 at 26.8 pounds per person, but in 2024 dropped to just 19.3 pounds per person.
At the same time, the average turkey size in the U.S. has nearly doubled since the 1960s, climbing
By David Weiner, City News Service
from just 17.7 lbs. in 1960 to nearly 33 in 2024, which animal rights advocates say is further proof of how inhumanely the animals are treated at factory farms.
With an increasing number of Americans ditching meat, both the volume and quality of vegan options has steadily grown in recent years. Most supermarkets sell plant-based options that can nicely fit Thanksgiving needs, including the most popular choice, Tofurkey, an Oregon-based company founded in 1980 by self-described teacher, naturalist and hippie Seth Tibbott. The company debuted its tofu-based Holiday Roast in 1995.
Several other companies have followed suit and developed their own vegan roasts in recent years, including Gardein, Field Roast, Quorn, Country Life and Trader Joe’s.
Humane World for Animals (formerly the Humane Society) notes that a few easy swaps can retain the traditional Thanksgiving meal but without the cruelty:
— For plant-based main dishes, more cruelty-free options are available than ever, such as a vegetable- or seitan-based roast.
— Classic Thanksgiving sides and desserts can easily be made egg- and dairy-free. Simply swap out the milk and butter for plant-based alternatives available at most supermarkets.
— Warm and cozy soups are another great idea, such as fire roasted corn chowder, butternut squash or sweet potato vegetable.
The Los Angeles-based group Mercy for Animals offers a free digital cookbook available via tinyurl. com/2eyan87k.
For those seeking restaurant fare for the holiday, many vegan eateries in the Southland are offering special plant-based packages.
Veggie Grill, a chain of moderately prices vegan restaurants with several Southland locations, is closed on Thanksgiving Day, but is offering a pre-ordered holiday feast that serves four to six people for pickup between Nov. 20-26.
Doomie’s Home Cookin’ at 1253 Vine St. will be open 11 a.m. to midnight on Thanksgiving and will have plates available for $20, plant-based fried chicken and traditional holiday side dishes. Its NextMex taqueria and Hot Vegan Chicks, located next door,
are also open regular hours Thursday.
Donna Jean Restaurant in Sherman Oaks has a special Thanksgiving catering menu available for pre-order and pickup Wednesday between noon and 8 p.m.
Likewise, Cafe Gratitude in the Larchmont neighborhood offers a Thanksgiving pickup menu, but orders must be placed by 9 p.m. the Sunday before the holiday and picked up between 11 a.m. and 9 p.m. Wednesday.
Sunshine Kitchen in Culver City offers a vegan Shepherd’s Pie for $50 that feeds four to six people, available for pickup through Wednesday.
Pasadena’s all-vegan bakery ID-Eclair has a Thanksgiving Feast for Two — a handcrafted holiday box of mixed treats that includes a vegan turkey, classic herb stuffing, creamy mashed potatoes, mushroom-based gravy, and dinner rolls or a crusty baguette, along with a bottle of wine.
Pure Vita in West Hollywood is closed Thursday, but is offering a Thanksgiving feast at the restaurant until then, which is also offered for pick up Wednesday with pre-order. Planta in Brentwood is also closed on the holiday, but will host a seated “Friendsgiving” event on Sunday from 1-5 p.m., and is selling “PlantsGiving” bundles and a la cartethemed Thanksgiving items for pickup on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Glendale City Notices
CITY OF GLENDALE – NOTICE OF PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD
Substantial Amendment to the HOME-ARP Allocation Plan
The City of Glendale is proposing a substantial amendment to its HOME-ARP Allocation Plan. The original plan, approved by HUD in 2023, allocated nearly all HOME-ARP funding to the development of affordable housing at 426 Piedmont Avenue, with a preference for seniors facing or at risk of homelessness.
Because that project required less funding than anticipated, the City proposes to reallocate $2,100,000 of HOME-ARP funds to support the rehabilitation and expansion of a transitional housing facility in Glendale. The project will create 19 permanent supportive units for women and families affected by domestic violence.
Additionally, HUD identified an administrative error in the City’s original HOME-ARP award. As a result, Glendale’s total allocation has been increased from $5,109,346 to $5,116,976. Consistent with HUD rules, up to 15% of this correction is allocated to Administration & Planning, with the balance added to the domestic violence housing activity. This amend¬ment reflects both the new project activity and the corrected total award.
This amendment qualifies as a substantial amendment under HUD regulations because it adds a new activity and updates the total award amount. The senior preference established for the Piedmont project does not apply to this new activity.
The draft amendment is available for public review at:
- Online: www.glendaleca.gov/affordablehousing
- In person: Community Development Department – Housing Division, 141 N. Glendale Avenue, Suite 202, Glendale, CA 91206

NOTICE OF PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING CITY OF GLENDALE ZONING MAP AMENDMENT, ZONE CHANGE AND STATUTORY DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT RELATING TO SIGNAGE IN THE ADVERTISING SIGNAGE OVERLAY ZONE NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN:
Project Location of Zoning Map
228 - 252 SOUTH BRAND BLVD. - Downtown Specific Plan (DSP), Downtown “Arts and Entertainment” District
Assessor Parcel Nos: 5642-013-007, 5642-013-008 and 5642-013-014
Legal Description: Lots 8 – 16 and a Portion of Lot 17 and the vacated alley east of these lots, Tract No. 2461
Project Description
The Planning Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council regarding proposed amendments to Chapter 30.26 – Advertising Signage Overlay Zone (ASOZ) to provide a definition for ASOZ wall sign, and amend the criteria to approve an ASOZ and regulations for signs allowed by the ASOZ. The applicant is also proposing to change the zone map to expand the boundary of the ASOZ overlay zone and identify the locations, sizes and elevations of new signs incorporated into the expanded ASOZ boundary (Code Amendment Case No. PZC 0014-2025). The applicant is Chris Robertson of Caruso
The ASOZ is located in areas of the City-designated Downtown Specific Plan (DSP) and within the boundaries of the Central Glendale Redevelopment Project Area. The existing ASOZ area is bounded by West Broadway to the north, South Brand Boulevard to the east, Colorado Street to the south and South Columbus Street to the west.
The applicant has also requested a statutory Development Agreement to comply with GMC Section 30.26.100, including the provision of certain public benefits to the City and the Development Agreement term.
Environmental Determination
The proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 - Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations, because the proposed expansion of the ASOZ is a minor change to existing zoning regulations that does not result in any changes in either permitted land use (commercial) or density. The amendment is also exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15303 - New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, because the expansion of the ASOZ would allow for a limited number of new, small structures in the form of signage. In addition, the amendment is categorically exempt under Section 15331 - Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation, to the extent it applies to work on historic resources in a manner consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.
The ordinance establishes standards for digital signage on buildings, including limitations on size, brightness, location, and design to ensure compatibility with the historic character of affected structures and surrounding areas. Any future sign proposals will remain subject to review against these standards.
Public Hearing
Said matter concerning the proposed amendments will be the subject of a public hearing by the Planning Commission at 633 East Broadway (Municipal Services Building), Room 105, Glendale, CA 91206, on the 17TH DAY OF DECEMBER, 2025, at or after the hour of 5:00 p.m. The Planning Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council concerning this matter.
The meeting can be viewed on Charter Cable Channel 6 or streamed online at: https://www.glendaleca.gov/government/departments/management-services/gtv6/livevideo-stream.

Port of LA reports ‘strong performance’ in cargo volume for October
Despitewhatwas described as a volatile trade year due to federal policies and tariffs, Port of Los Angeles officials Tuesday said the facility processed nearly 850,000 twenty-foot equivalent units in October, totaling almost 9 million TEUs so far in 2025, a 2% increase compared to 2024.
“With six weeks to go, we are within reach of the 10 million container unit-mark for the year,” Port Executive Director Gene Seroka said during a monthly media briefing.
“If we reach that milestone, it would be the third time in our history, and something no other Western Hemisphere port has achieved even once. That kind of performance is powered by the skill and dedication of our waterfront workforce along with the terminal operators who keep this port running safely and efficiently every day,” Seroka added.
In October, cargo volume stood at 848,431 TEUs, which

Seroka described as a “solid performance.”
Of that figure, loaded imports came in at 429,283 TEUs, representing a 7% decline compared to October 2024. Loaded exports stood at 123,768 TEUs, an increase of more than 1%, and the port sent back 295,380 TEUs of empty containers, a decline of 8%.
Seroka said he anticipates cargo volume to soften in the remaining two months of 2025 compared to 2024 as
shippers brought in cargo ahead of schedule as a hedge against tariffs.
For the time being, retail and manufacturing inventories are well- stocked, Seroka reported, so there’s less need for replenishment.
Jennifer Barrera, president and CEO of the California Chamber of Commerce, joined Seroka for Tuesday’s briefing. She discussed the impact of tariffs, the state’s business climate and regulatory reform efforts.
LA County reports first flu-related death of season
By City News Service
LosAngelesCounty
health officials Wednesdayconfirmedthe county’s first flu-related death of the season.
According to the county DepartmentofPublic Health, the patient was an “older person” with underlying health conditions, who had not received a flu vaccination. No other details about the patient were released.
Health officials said flu activity in the area is “currently low,” but is
expected to increase with the approaching holidays as people travel and take part in large gatherings.
“We send our condolences to the family and loved ones of the person we lost. This tragic death reminds us how serious influenza can be,” Dr. Muntu Davis, county Health Officer, said in a statement. “The best protection this season is getting an updated flu vaccine. Protecting yourself also helps keep your community safer.
“You can also reduce
LA County looks to compel telecom firms to underground infrastructure
By
ThecountyBoardof Supervisors instructed its staff Tuesday to initiateeffortsaimedat requiringtelecommunications companies to underground their infrastructure in the Santa Monica Mountains as a fire-prevention measure.
The board action directed staff to move forward with proceedings before the California Public Utilities Commission to address the issue in communities such as Topanga, Las Flores and others.
“Undergrounding utilities is essential to preventing wildfires and protecting our communities,” Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvath said in a statement after the vote. “Fire season is here now, and our residents cannot wait for safer infrastructure. Undergrounding telecommunications reduces fire risks, keeps evacuation routes clear, and strengthens the systems our communities rely on every day. Through today’s action,
we will work with the CPUC to require the urgent action our communities deserve. We owe it to fire survivors to build infrastructure that keeps them safe.”
According to Horvath’s office, Southern California Edison has been making “significant progress” on undergrounding projects in areas such as Las Flores/ Rambla Pacifico and along Topanga Canyon Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway. But telecommunications
companies that utilize the SCE poles “have refused to underground their equipment, leaving hazardous poles standing even after SCE has removed its lines,” according to Horvath’s office.
“Leaving overhead electrical and telecommunications infrastructure can fuel fires, block evacuation routes, and intensify emergencies -- especially in areas where residents depend on only one or two evacuation routes.”
2 killed, girl injured in Baldwin Park
shooting; suspect found dead
A35-year-old man went to the Baldwin Park home of his estranged wife’s family and opened fire, killing a married couple and critically injuring a 10-yearold girl, then later fatally shot himself in Anaheim, sheriff’s officials said Tuesday.
Deputies responded around 5 a.m. Monday to a home in the 12700 block of Royston Street in Baldwin Park, where they were met by two men and a boy who said a shooting had occurred inside the residence, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
your risk by taking simple but powerful steps: wash your hands frequently, stay home and away from others when you feel sick, and wear a well-fitting mask in crowded indoor spaces, around people at higher risk, or whenever you have symptoms. These simple steps help slow the spread of flu and protect everyone around you.”
Health officials recommend flu vaccines for everyone older than six months.
Inside the home deputies found a man and a woman, both 61, fatally shot. A 10-year-old girl was found with a gunshot wound and was taken to a hospital in critical condition, sheriff’s officials said.
The fatally injured victims were identified as Qiufu Jiang and his wife, Yulan Wang.
“Homicide investigators identified Qihao Jin, a 35-year-old male Asian, as the suspect,” sheriff’s officials said in a statement. “Investigators learned suspect Jin targeted the location of his estranged wife’s family. He entered
the residence armed with a firearm and shot the victims.
Suspect Jin fled the location westbound on Royston Street in a vehicle. Suspect Jin’s estranged wife was not at the location when this incident occurred.”
Investigators obtained a description of the suspect’s vehicle late Monday night, and it was found by police in Anaheim in the 100 block of Vermont Street. Jim was found at that location, dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot, sheriff’s officials said.
Investigators tracked the car through a license-plate
reader and Anaheim officers found the vehicle with the suspect’s body inside about 11:30 p.m. Monday, Anaheim police Sgt. Matt Sutter said. A motive for the shooting was not released. Sheriff’s officials said no further details about the case will be released ``to maintain the integrity of the investigation.”
Anyone with additional information regarding the shooting was urged to contact the Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500. Tipsters who prefer to remain anonymous can call Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477 or visit lacrimestoppers.org.

Officer, woman killed, 2 injured in crash during chase in Alhambra
By Staff
A28-year-old Alhambra police officer and a woman were killed and two others injured Thursday during a high-speed chase.
The two-vehicle crash occurred after officers responded to the area of Valley Boulevard and Fremont Avenue around 3 a.m. Thursday regarding a pursuit, police said. It was unclear where the chase began and how long it lasted.
Officer Alec Sanders was transported to a local hospital where, despite lifesaving efforts, he succumbed to his injuries, authorities said.
According to published reports, Alhambra Police Chief Garrett Kennedy said Sanders had been with the APD for eight months and previously worked for about a year with the Long Beach Police Department.
A female passenger in the other vehicle involved in the collision died at the scene, Kennedy said.
Two other men in that
vehicle were injured. A second passenger suffered major injuries and was hospitalized, while the driver sustained moderate injuries and was being questioned as to why he allegedly fled officers.
Kennedy said that Sanders had gone to work Wednesday night to cover a shift for another officer. The chief noted Sanders’ “dedication and kindness” and said he is survived by a fiancée, two
County fire team saves man from river in El Monte
Aman was rescued from the San Gabriel River in El Monte by members of the Los Angeles County Fire Department’s Urban Search and Rescue teams last week and taken to a hospital.

Firefighters responded to the San Gabriel River (605) Freeway, near the Valley Boulevard exit, just before 9:30 p.m. Nov. 17 to reports of a man trapped in the riverbed, according to reports from the scene.
The man was airlifted by helicopter from the river to the nearby bike path, CBS2 reported. He was taken to a hospital by paramedics in an unknown condition.
younger sisters and a brother.
“He’s known for his unwavering reliability,” Kennedy said. “He was the type of officer who responded to every call, whether he was dispatched to it or not. He was just one of
those officers. He was passionate about fitness, and he could often be found working out — a habit that was reflected in his discipline, both on and off the job. His intelligence, work ethic and steady presence
made him a respected partner and a friend.”
Kennedy said Sanders enjoyed traveling and was an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys.
City News Service reported the California Highway Patrol was assisting in the investigation with Alhambra police, who were working with the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Gov. Gavin Newsom offered condolences Thursday.
“Jennifer and I offer our deepest sympathies to the family, friends, and colleagues of Officer Sanders,” Newsom said in a statement. “His exemplary service and unwavering courage reflect the highest ideals of public duty. May we continue to honor his life with profound gratitude; never forgetting his ultimate sacrifice.”
In honor of Sanders, flags at the State Capitol and Capitol Annex Swing Space will remain at half-staff, according to Newsom’s office.
say suggests possible Brown Act violations. The state’s Brown Act prohibits officials from making decisions outside a public hearing.
“These actions undermine transparency and public trust,” according to Monday’s recall notice.
“Fu also attempted to remove the Mayor from office despite being advised by legal counsel that such action is prohibited under the Arcadia City Charter,” recall proponents argued. “Residents are now suing the city to overturn his attempt, which could cost taxpayers significantly.
“His actions diverted staff time, delayed city business, exposed the city to litigation, and reflect fiscally reckless behavior that
harms residents,” the notice concluded. “This conduct create division and erodes confidence in local government. Voters deserve leadership that follows the law and puts community first.”
Fu, Kwan, the three other council members did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
“The City does not have a comment on the matter other than we are committed to conducting a process that is fair, transparent, and in accordance with all applicable laws,” city spokeswoman Justine Bruno said in an email.
Former Councilwoman and Mayor April Verlato, who represented District 1 for eight years, is leading the recall effort. She was
termed out of office last year and unsuccessfully ran for Congress against longtime Rep. Judy Chu, D-Pasadena.
In a mass email about the latest recall notice — two other notice petitions starting last month have been submitted to the City Clerk — Verlato shared a document from City Manager Dominic Lazzaretto detailing the recall process that says Verlato served the city with notice to circulate a petition demanding a recall election.
Recall procedures allows the subject of the recall to submit a 200-word statement to be included with districtwide petition documents.
After the city clerk certifies the recall notice, the Los
Angeles County voter registrar’s office must verify that at least 60 of the 81 signatures are valid.
“The Registrar would look at ensuring the signatures match as well as ensuring that addresses are the same as those on file for that voter,” according to the city manager’s office. “All signatures must come from District 1 residents who are properly registered to vote in the District.”
The city manager’s office estimates 25% of the 6,305 registered voters in the district — approximately 1,576 residents — would need to sign the recall petition within 90 days to force a special election.
The City Council must call an election within 88-125
days after the city clerk certifies enough valid signatures have been collected. The closest countywide election would be the June 2 primary, and the City Council would need to schedule the election by March 6.
“Otherwise, the City Council would need to pay for a stand alone election within the required timeframe,” according to Lazzaretto’s memo to the council. “We don’t have
“A good estimate for the cost of a consolidated election or a stand alone election” wasn’t available, but that information was forthcoming from the county, according to Lazzaretto’s memo to the council. He said a consolidated election would be significantly less expensive — “4-5
times cheaper depending on what else might be going on in the County at that time. The general range could be as low as $10,000 to more than $75,000.” If enough voters sign the recall petition and remove Fu, the remaining council members would either appoint a replacement to fulfill the remainder of the term, or would call a special election to fill the seat. The council could also make interim appointment, then call an election for the remainder of the term. Residents filed a lawsuit asking a court to overturn the censure action against Kwan that the City Council approved with 4-1 votes in late August and early September.
