Cal-OSHA brings workplace Covid rules in line with eased public rules Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIR F IELD — The state Division of Occupational Safety and Health eased its Covid-19 workplace restrictions Thursday to come in line with the governor’s order for the general public.

Gov. Gavin Newsom also issued an executive order expediting the implementation of those changes.

“What they are basically doing is that they are mirroring what the . . . governor permits for the general public,” Dr. Bela Matyas, the Solano County public health

officer, said in a phone interview Thursday.

Anyone who works outside will no longer be required to wear a face covering, and indoor employees who are fully vaccinated also are freed from the restriction.

Matyas said it will be up to the individual business to decide what level of proof it will require from their employees about vaccinations. d ista ncS ocia l ing is no longer required anywhere.

The Cal-OSHA order, however, allows for an employee to request an N-95 mask, and the See Covid, Page A9

2nd air pollution alert Friday Matt Miller

mmiller@dailyrepublic.net

FAIR F IELD — Scorching temperatures are sending the greater Bay Area under an air pollution alert for the second straight day as Solano County is expected to climb around triple digits again Friday.

Fairfield hit a blistering 110 degrees Thursday, and should slowly cool to 99 Friday and 93 Saturday. The 110 mark could be a record high for June 17: National Weather Service, Sacramento, data

show a previous high of 106 in 1981.

Vacaville was just a tad cooler at 108. It’s predicted to stay in the 100s Friday at 105, with some cooling Saturday at 98 degrees.

Local libraries are being suggested as cooling stations for those in need. PG&E also stated there are no immediate plans for power shutoffs to prevent wildfires because of the excessive heat, but plans can change quickly if the strength of local See Alert, Page A9

Partida said the pandemic did give her an opportunity to get closer with her 1,341-pound friend.

She started in 4-H a few years back by seeing a flyer about it at school.

“I just decided to try it,” she said. “I started with goats and moved all the way up to steers. This year I’ve really had more time to be with him.”

VALLEJO — Buddy the steer was a bit aggravated prior to Thursday’s Solano County Fair Livestock Show. His 16-year-old handler Maritza Partida simply stared into his eyes and his anger immediately subsided.

“I just try and get him to look at me and listen to me because there is a lot of noise all-around,” said Partida, representing Dixon Ridge 4-H. Asked if she is a “steer whis-

perer,” Partida just laughed with a big smile and said, “I wish.”

Partida was one of six 4-H Club and Future Farmers of America youth participating this year with their beef cattle. There were many more participants in poultry (chickens, quail and turkeys), rabbits, swine, goats and sheep with judging taking place inside and outside the livestock center.

The auction will follow online this year because of Covid-19 protocols. Bidding takes place Friday and Saturday. Bidders can sign up at scfair.com/livestock. The auction

FAIRFIELD — The principles and rules of redistricting – including “maintaining communities of interest” – was presented Thursday to the Solano County Redistricting Advisory Committee.

Redistricting is completed every 10 years with the completion of each new federal census. It sets the district boundaries out of which county representatives are elected.

While the public will have opportunities to comment on redistricting, the final decision belongs to the Board of Supervisors, which, in essence, will decide the geographic, population makeup and political spheres of the members’ districts.

Armijo High student is grand prize winner in congressional art contest Daily Republic Staff

Look for yourself

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Armijo High student Fayola Fayusi was the grand prize winner in the annual Congressional High School Art Competition in the 3rd District.

Fayusi was recognized for her piece, “Heroes Like Me,” and was one of 23 students recognized

by Rep. John Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove.

“Every year, I’m always amazed by the incredible talent and quality of art we receive for the Congressional High School Art Competition,” Garamendi said in a statement released by his office. “Congratulations to Fayola Fayusi, Alexandra Gionco and all of our county winners.”

Gionco was the runner-up. She is a student at the Marysville Charter Academy for the Arts. The title of her piece is “Love Us Like You Love Our Food.”

“This competition is a team effort. Our panel of independent judges performed the tough task of narrowing down the winners. Teachers, parents and mentors worked behind the scenes to offer encouragement, advice and inspiration. And most importantly, these students knew they were artists and photographers with something important to say.

Congratulations to everyone who participated in this year’s Congressional High School Art Competition,” Garamendi said in the statement.

Fayusi’s work will be featured at an exhibit at the U.S. Capitol for a year.

FAIRFIELD — Fairfield will submit to the state a list of 10 road maintenance projects and the North Texas Water Main Replacement and Overlay project for Senate Bill 1 funding.

The City Council this week approved the submission as part of its consent calendar vote.

The state requires cities eligible for the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account funding program, which was established as part of SB 1, to submit a list of projects. The city anticipates it will receive nearly $2.25 million for the 2021-22 fiscal year.

The water main replacement and overlay project involves replacing the existing main along North Texas Street, between Travis Boulevard and Air Base Parkway, and repaving about 360,000 square feet. The work is scheduled to start in October and be completed in June 2022. The estimated cost is $7.1 million, of which $1.82 million would be SB1 funding.

The total cost also includes the full scope of the project, including design and necessary project reviews, and is not just construction.

“The maintenance and rehabilitation project costs for the listed streets are much greater than the available (state) funding

in (fiscal year) 2021-22.

Because of the limited amount of SB 1 funds, in order to accomplish these projects, the street maintenance and rehabilitation projects will also utilize Gas Tax and Measure P,” a staff report to the council stated.

The estimated cost for all 10 road maintenance projects is $3.5 millon, of which the city will apply $1.87 million in SB1 funds.

Work is expected to start in August and be completed by February.

The road maintenance projects will extend the life of the roadways, the city reports, by adding asphalt rubber and cape seal to: n Air Base Parkway, from Peabody Road to the city limits. n Parker Road, from Air Base Parkway to the end of the road. n Fulton Drive, from Lopes Road to Watt Drive. n Fermi Drive, from Watt Drive to Lopes Road. n Watt Drive, from Fulton Drive to Redtop Road. n Eastman Court, from Watt Drive to the end of the road. n Edison Court, from Fulton Drive to the end of the road. n Pascal Court, from Fermi Drive to the end of the road. n Watt Court, from Watt Drive to the end of the road. n Travis Boulevard, from Eisenhower Street to Sunset Avenue.

CORDELIA — The Cordelia Fire Protection District welcomed eight new volunteer resident firefighter recruits to the team last week.

Company officers began training the new volunteers last weekend, with additional trainings scheduled Saturday and Sunday at Rockville Road Station No. 29, and in Rockville Heights.

The Cordelia Fire Protection District, as an autonomous agency, operates on a limited budget and relies heavily on volunteer resident firefighters to carry out what the agency describes as “critical fire prevention and suppression duties as well as to deliver medical aid to our constituents,” Chief David Carpenter said in a press release.

“We’re grateful to all our volunteers for their service,” Carpenter said in the press release.

The district has not only brought in graduates of local fire academies but emergency medical technicians as well who wish to also train as firefighters, the agency reports.

This expands the career options of the trainees.

Resident firefighter volunteers take part in training with the Cordelia Fire Protection District. The training will continue Saturday and Sunday.

Protection District is currently staffed by three full-time company officers, a volunteer fire chief, an assistant fire chief and 23 resident firefighters, plus the eight new recruits.

While the resident firefighters are classified as volunteers, they commit to at least one 24-hour shift each week, and thus receive on-the-job training and experience.

The Cordelia Fire Protection District was established in 1918 and provides fire and EMS services to Green Valley, Rockville, Cordelia and Lower Suisun Valley.

SUISUN CITY — The city is authorizing eight hours of holiday time for employees Monday to acknowledge Juneteenth.

President Joe Biden signed legislation Thursday to make Juneteenth a national holiday.

Mayor Lori Wilson sent out a letter to Suisun City employees Thursday that read: President “Today, Joe Biden signed legislation into law establishing June 19 as Juneteenth National Independence Day, a U.S. federal holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the United States.

“Juneteenth has been traditionally celebrated as the end of slavery as it commemorates June 19, 1865, when Union Major General Gordon Granger announced the end of slavery in Galveston, Texas, in accordance with President Abraham

Lincoln’s 1863 Emancipation Proclamation two years earlier.

“It is with great pleasure that I proclaim Juneteenth National Independence Day a holiday in Suisun City to be observed in 2021 on Monday, June 21, 2021, and authorize eight hours of holiday time to Suisun City employees.”

She noted that City Manager Greg Folsom would follow up with additional instructions for staff.

“Commemorating this holiday in Suisun City is more than recognizing a historical moment, it is about embracing all aspects of our history as country in a spirit of unity and equity,” Wilson wrote in the letter. “I hope you enjoy this time away from your work to spend time with your family and observe the holiday by taking a moment to make our country a more inclusive place.”

Offices at City Hall will be closed Monday in observance of the holiday.

Dodd’s water access, equity bill clears committee Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Legislation from state Sen. Bill Dodd that could help many Californians who have fallen behind on their water bill and are at risk of being disconnected from service Wednesday cleared a key committee Wednesday.

Bill dodd Senate 222 was approved by the Assembly Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials Committee on a bipartisan 7-2 vote after previously clearing the full Senate. It now goes to the Assembly Utilities and Energy Committee.

It is backed by a coalition of water advocates that includes the Community Water Center, Clean Water Action and the Leadership Council for Justice and Accountability.

The legislation comes as the state Water Resources Control Board heard results of a survey that found water bill debt

in California climbed to about $1 billion. The survey estimates 12% of California households are behind on their water bills with an average debt of $500 per home.

Many of those people are on the brink of service disconnect ion, according to a press release from Dodd’s office.

The bill, known as the Water Rate Assistance Program, would allow low-income ratepayers experiencing economic hardship to keep their drinking and wastewater services. It would build on Dodd’s Low-Income Water Rate Assistance, which commissioned a study for how to address affordability. It resulted in recommendations that include this new fund.

Dodd, D-Napa, also wrote The Water Shutoff Protection Bill, which provided safeguards against water disconnection.

He represents Solano County in the state Senate.

Concert promoter plans Juneteenth celebration at Solano County Fair Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

VALLEJO — The events coordinator for the drive-in concert series at the 72nd annual Solano County Fair has planned entertainment and other activities commemorating Juneteenth.

Mike White and his planning staff at Radio Events Group said the Juneteenth performances will be fitted between the headline events Saturday.

“We are going to have performers and . . . we are going to have cultural dancers and a poet on stage commemorating Juneteenth,” White said.

Juneteenth, which became a national holiday Thursday, marks

Juneteenth, which became a national holiday Thursday, marks the end of slavery in the United States. the end of slavery in the United States.

White said he was with his planning staff when he heard the news about the national holiday.

“It was a beautiful feat.

It has been a long time coming. We were all very excited,” White said.

“We have been fighting for it to be a national holiday for many, many years,” said White, who added that he was not

convinced it would ever happen after the racetumultuous years of the Trump administration, and the many unrelated street conflicts that took place across the country. “So we were just overjoyed.”

White, along with his family, has promoted one of the state’s largest Juneteenth celebrations in Richmond.

One year, he said, there were 20,000 people at Nicholl Park.

And while that city issued a permit this year for a parade, it did not issue one for the traditional festival, so White began looking for other opportunities.

When he and the

Solano County Fair Association reached an agreement on the drive-in concert series, that gave him the chance to include the Juneteenth elements in the event.

Among the drive-in concert performers are The Temptations, Lake Side, the Delfonics, Slave and Mariah Jackson.

There are three performers scheduled from 5 to 10 p.m. Friday, three from noon to 8 p.m. Saturday and four from noon to 8 p.m. Sunday.

Additionally, the virtual side of the fair will include musical performances from such local favorites as Papa Joe, Cut Loose and Groove Masters.

Elections officials alarmed by Dems’ plans to change governor recall rules Tribune Content Agency SACRAMENTO — Elections officials across California said Wednesday that the proposed rules written by Democratic lawmakers for the recall election of Gov. Gavin Newsom could push the event’s cost far beyond the current estimate of $215 million, creating voter confusion and delaying the counting of ballots.

election, officials said.

In some smaller counties, the mandate would sideline the use of election equipment purchased for use last November. Donna Johnston, the registrar of voters in Sutter County, said the county would be required to find seven times as many in-person locations under the Legislature’s plan.

“We’re looking at as what I would refer to as a ‘technology rollback,’ ” said Johnston, who serves as president of the state association of elections officials. “Voters would see longer lines.”

Counties with large populations could also struggle. Neal Kelley, the Orange County registrar of voters, said the legislation would require his office to go from 63 vote centers, with six workers per site, to 200 vote centers, with eight workers per site. And some of those locations would have to be open and fully staffed for 11 days.

“A lot of people have experience organizing big events like weddings,” Kelley said. “Now, factor that across the entire state of California for one of the See Recall, Page A10

South might have rebid two spades, allowing for North’s holding, say, five spades and three hearts. But he decided to hope that they did not have a superior spade fit, preferring to keep his hand in the dark from the defenders.

Declarer continued with a heart to the jack and a heart to his ace, getting the bad news. Now, if South drew trumps, he would have none left. The defenders would get in with the spade ace and run diamonds. So South turned to spades. However, East held up his ace until the second round, then gave his partner a spade ruff.

Diana Ross releases first new music in 15 years Tribune Content Agency Diana Ross is in a grateful mood.

The new single “Thank You,” released early Thursday, is threeplus minutes of musical and lyrical uplift from the Detroit-born star, who announced she’s got an album of the same name coming this fall.

Due on Decca Records, it will be Ross’ first album of new material since “I Love You” in 2006. The 13-track set was recorded with a host of in-demand songwriters and producers, including Jack Antonoff (Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey), Spike Stent (Ed Sheeran), Jimmy Napes (Sam Smith) and Freddy Wexler (Ariana Grande).

speckled new song has a vibe that harks back to her ‘70s and ‘80s work – including verses modeled on “You’re All I Need to Get By,” the Motown chestnut covered by Ross on her 1970 debut album.

The upcoming album was recorded in Ross’ home studio, according to Universal Music. Based on a provided track list – stocked with song titles such as “All is Well,” “If the World Just Danced” and “The Answer’s Always Love” – it looks to be an emphatically positive, upbeat work.

“This collection of songs is my gift to you with appreciation and love,” Ross said. “I am eternally grateful that I had the opportunity to record this glorious music at this time.”

Calmatters commentary

Legislature’s new budget a shame and self-serving

T

he Legislature’s Democratic supermajority put on something of a show Monday as they pretended to pass a new state budget.

There were floor speeches, formal roll call votes and a deluge of self-congratulatory statements after the day’s activities.

“The budget we’re sending to Governor Newsom reflects responsible budgeting as the Legislature’s top priority and makes vital investments in California’s future,” Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon and Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins said in a post-session statement.

However, it was just a Dan Walters sham driven by the state constitution’s requirement that legislators pass a budget by June 15 or see their salaries suspended.

Republican Sen. James Nielsen captured the situation when he said, “This is a fake budget.

It’s a feel-good budget. It’s a let-us-get-paid budget. But what we’re voting on is not going to be the budget.”

It’s not going to be the budget because Rendon and Atkins still must settle disagreements with Gov. Gavin Newsom, not only on how much to spend but even how much revenue they have to spend.

The two budgets are perhaps 90% in agreement but in a spending plan that tops $200 billion, 10% is still a lot of money.

Monday’s charade caps decades of political wrangling over how state budgets should be drafted.

Until the early 1970s, budgets were typically written in secret by a few legislators and the governor’s office but that practice ended when one legislator, facing a tough re-election campaign, loaded up a budget with pork barrel projects for his district.

The legislator was stripped of his position, his budget was set aside and new, seemingly more transparent, procedures were adopted.

Eventually, however, the process drifted back into secret negotiations between the governor and a “Big 5” of legislative leaders that included Republicans because the budget required twothirds votes for enactment.

A decade ago, the Big 5 became the Big 3, excluding Republicans, after voters approved a 2010 ballot measure, largely sponsored by public employee unions, that reduced the vote needed to pass a budget to a simple majority.

Proposition 25’s sponsors cited months-long delays in passing budgets during Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger’s governorship as a rationale and included the threat of legislators’ losing their salaries to make it more attractive to voters.

The revised system had its first test in 2011, the first year of Jerry Brown’s second governorship. The Legislature sent a budget to Brown and he vetoed it, declaring it to be unconstitutionally unbalanced.

Then-Controller John Chiang backed Brown by suspending legislators’ salaries. The Legislature sued and won a judicial declaration that only the Legislature itself could determine whether the June 15 deadline had been met.

Legislators were thus empowered to pass what they deemed to be a budget bill by June 15, even though – as is happening this year – it may not be a finished product.

Proposition 25 contained another piece of procedural mischief, allowing any bill the Legislature declared to be connected to the budget to also be enacted with simple majority votes.

Thus, budget “trailer bills” often became vehicles for major changes in state policy without full committee hearings and other traditional exposure.

The misuse of trailer bills sparked another ballot measure in 2016, Proposition 54, requiring that bills be in print – and available for public viewing – for at least 72 hours before enactment. It didn’t stop the procedural abuses, but at least made them more obvious.

Newsom and legislators will eventually settle their differences, but the complete budget picture will not emerge for weeks and even months as trailer bills and budget modification measures dribble out of the Capitol.

Nothing odd about that, you might say, expect she repeated it about 30 times in the memo. And of course she claimed that it was racist when a reporter pointed it out.

This is a common theme among some politicians. Point out an error or a failed policy, and you’re guilty of racism if the politician is a member of a minority group.

What I wonder is how long the people of Chicago put up with the soaring murder rate. Chicago has no possible recall procedure, like the one Gavin Newsom is being hit with here in California. So not only is Chicago an increasingly dangerous city – perhaps the most dangerous in the country – but there’s little that residents can do about it.

Except move, that is.

Of course San Francisco is right up there with Chicago when it comes to crime. Did you hear that 17 Walgreen’s in the city have been burglarized in the past few months?

Criminals are well aware of California’s Proposition 47, which says that any theft below $950 is a misdemeanor. They could rob a half-dozen stores in one day and not be hit with a felony charge as long as they stole less than $950 in any one store.

Light winds and hot temperatures along with motor vehicle exhaust will create unhealthy concentrations of ozone, or smog.

Spare the Air alerts are issued when ozone pollution is forecast to reach unhealthy levels. Ozone can cause throat irritation, congestion, chest pain, trigger asthma, inflame the lining of the lungs and worsen bronchitis and emphysema. Long-term exposure to ozone can reduce lung function.

Ozone pollution is particularly harmful for young children, seniors and those with respiratory and heart conditions.

It was the third training meeting for the committee, which has three representatives from each of the five Board of Supervisors districts, although there are single vacancies in the 4th District and the 5th District.

The committee’s primary role will be to conduct public outreach meetings in each of the districts leading up to when the 2020 Census data is released at the end of September. Those outreach meetings include one night and one Saturday meeting in each district.

Tiffanee Jones, who was appointed by 1st District Supervisor Erin Hannigan, said she has been requested by organizations to hold special meetings for them. That was typically discouraged, and the committee members were advised to direct those representatives to come to set meetings and to go to the redistricting website.

While one of the guiding principles of redistricting is to create five districts that are relatively equal in size, population is not the only factor in determining the new boundaries.

The districts should be contiguous, they should follow lines of other jurisdictions – such as cities as well as state and federal districts – when possible, and the districts should be

functional in design.

One of the more critical guidelines, however, is to maintain “communities of interest,” which are defined as areas that include “ethnic and language minorities and other groups.” The idea is to avoid breaking up those areas, and by doing so, weakening their voices in the political arena.

But race alone cannot be the predominant factor in drawing the district boundaries.

“And we cannot have a political party as a community of interest,” Mitchell said.

Communities of interest can be defined by shared interests in a population. Mitchell used the example of a group of dog lovers whose priority is the support of dog parks.

But rural areas, commute interests, cycling and other characteristics can be submitted as a community of interest, Mitchell said.

A demonstration of the online mapping tool, DistrictR, was given to

the committee as well.

It allows residents to draw and submit district map suggestions directly to the county’s redistricting website.

He said groups or organizations who have common interests or are linked by geography, for example, can use the mapping element to keep their interests together.

A worksheet will be on the website so individuals can comment on their interests.

The community also can submit district plans using the county’s website tools.

Mitchell also emphasized the importance of the outreach hearings scheduled for each district.

“It is critical that we provide this avenue so people can come in and comment on their communities of interest,” Mitchell said.

He said individuals can use more than one of the options to express their opinions on redistricting. It really is a matter of comfort.

Supreme Court saves ‘Obamacare’ again Rejects GOP challenge from Texas Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday rejected a sweeping challenge to the Affordable Care Act pressed by Republican state attorneys and backed by former President Donald Trump, ruling the plaintiffs had no standing to complain about a law imposing penalties on no one.

The decision in California vs. Texas preserves health insurance subsidies for more than 20 million Americans and protections for tens of millions more whose preexisting medical conditions could otherwise prevent them from obtaining coverage.

The Texas suit, the third major effort to strike down the national health care law commonly known as “Obamacare,” fizzled out in a 7-2 decision.

And this time, the court did not sharply split along ideological lines.

Two Trump appointees – Justices Brett M. Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett – joined Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and the three liberals in dismissing the

Texas suit. Justice Clarence Thomas concurred.

Justices Neil M. Gorsuch, also a Trump appointee, and Samuel A. Alito Jr. dissented.

In the ruling – and similarly in a separate unanimous decision Thursday that pitted gay rights against religious liberties – Roberts and his colleagues surprised many by finding a way to bring together those on the right and left, rather than issue the usual 5-4 decision that has often divided the bench on such culture-war cases.

They did so by keeping the decision narrowly focused and not making a broad pronouncement on the law. The justices avoided dealing again with the constitutionality of the 2010 law and instead said simply said that the suit should have been dismissed at the start.

Justice Stephen G. Breyer, writing for the court, said neither the state of Texas nor the two men who joined the suit suffered a “concrete, particularized injury” that gave them standing to sue.

Since Congress had reduced the penalty under

the law for not having insurance to zero, they could not claim they were being forced by the government to buy insurance they did not want, he said.

The ruling stands as a final thumbs-down verdict against Trump’s promise that he would “repeal and replace” the 2010 Affordable Care Act sponsored by President Barack Obama.

Trump never devised a plan to replace the law, and both the Republican-controlled Senate and the high court with a solidly conservative majority rejected his legislative and legal bids to repeal it.

In the past, the court had struggled with the law’s mandate that people who could afford it must buy health insurance. Otherwise, they faced a tax penalty. In 2012, the justices by a 5-4 vote upheld this provision and the entire law on the grounds that Congress had broad power to impose taxes.

But in 2017, the Republican-controlled Congress reset the tax penalty to “$0.” An earlier move to repeal the entire law failed when the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., famously

Gun-waving couple plead guilty to misdemeanor charges Tribune Content Agency ST. LOUIS — Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who waved guns at protesters last year who marched past the couple’s Central West End mansion, pleaded guilty Thursday to misdemeanors and agreed to give up their weapons.

Mark McCloskey, 64, will pay a $750 fine after pleading guilty to fourthdegree assault, a Class C misdemeanor. Patricia McCloskey, 62, must pay a $2,000 fine after pleading guilty to second-degree harassment, a Class A misdemeanor.

Mark McCloskey could have faced up to 15 days in jail; Patricia McCloskey could have spent up to a year behind bars. Neither will face jail time.

Callahan, said in a statement.

The McCloskeys also agreed to forfeit the weapons they used when they confronted a throng of protesters marching

past their Portland Place mansion on June 28, 2020.

The McCloskeys emerged from their home and waved guns at the demonstrators. They claimed the protesters were trespassing by entering their gated, private street.

After accepting the McCloskeys’ pleas in court Thursday, Circuit Judge David Mason denied the couple’s request that Mark McCloskey’s rifle be donated for use in charity fundraisers. The McCloskeys’ lawyer Joel Schwartz said the couple would have liked to donate the rifle to the Missouri Historical Society or “for auction to the (St. Louis) Children’s Hospital.”

McCloskey, Mark outside the Carnahan Courthouse, said “this is a good day for the McCloskeys,” expressing no remorse for his actions.

The U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. gave a “thumbs down” vote.

The outcome appeared to end the legal and political fight over Obamacare, since Congress had repealed the one provision that had triggered the most opposition.

But Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton went back to court in 2018 claiming the entire law was unconstitutional because it rested on a mandate that now had no force. He based his argument on statements by leading Democrats prior to 2012 that the mandate was crucial to the success of the law. Democrats later acknowledged that the mandate was not as critical

Recall From Page A5 biggest events ever and you can see the problem.”

The proposed law was introduced after several prominent Democrats urged their leaders to speed up the recall election to capitalize on Newsom’s relatively strong job approval ratings as California’s

to the program’s success as they once thought.

While Paxton’s suit was derided by legal scholars, he had the backing of 17 other Republican state attorneys. And he won a broad ruling from a federal judge in Fort Worth. A year later, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in a 2-1 decision agreed the law was on shaky ground, but did not issue a final ruling.

Because the Trump administration refused to defend the law, then-California Attorney General Xavier Becerra stepped forward to lead the defense, and he had the backing of 20 other Democratic-led states.

Covid-19 conditions have improved. To do so requires scuttling state rules Democrats pushed through the Legislature in 2017 as part of an unsuccessful attempt to beat back the recall of a Democratic state senator.

While the bill introduced last week would require more in-person voting, it does not appear to change existing plans to mail every voter a ballot.

In February, Newsom

They opted to go directly to the Supreme Court. Early last year, the justices voted to take up the case. In September, however, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, raising fears on the left that the law could be struck down by the newly named Trump appointees.

The fate of Obamacare became a key issue in Barrett’s confirmation hearings last year.

Democrats warned she would provide the final vote needed to scrap the law. But Coney signaled skepticism that the latest legal challenge – even if accepted – merited invalidating the entire law.

And conservatives such as Roberts and Thomas have long been skeptical of granting standing to people who sue over laws they do not like.

Alito, who had voted against Obamacare at every opportunity, wrote a long dissent, arguing the law should fall because the mandate is all but gone, and Gorsuch agreed.

Meanwhile, Becerra who led the defense, is now the secretary of health and human services under President Joe Biden and is in charge of administering the law.

and legislators agreed to extend last year’s rules for mailing every registered voter a ballot for any election held in 2021.

That, registrars said, puts enormous pressure on the vendors that supply the paper used for ballots – especially if those ballots are several pages long to potentially accommodate dozens of possible replacement candidates who have expressed a desire to run.

Israel attacks targets in Gaza after Hamas sends incendiary balloons Tribune Content Agency JERUSALEM — Israeli fighter jets have targeted sites belonging to Hamas in the Gaza Strip for the second time in two days.

The Israeli military tweeted on Thursday night that the bombardments of military compounds and a rocket launch site belonging to the strip’s ruling Islamist Hamas were in response to incendiary balloons sent from the coastal enclave into Israeli territory.

“The IDF has increased its readiness for various scenarios & will continue to strike Hamas terror targets in Gaza,” the army said.

Less than two days earlier, also in response to incendiary balloons sent

from Gaza, the Israeli military targeted Palestinian organizations in the Strip for the first time since a ceasefire with the Islamist movement halted recent escalations in fighting.

Palestinian militants have repeatedly sent balloons laden with explosives and incendiary devices across the the border into Israel to cause damage.

An 11-day conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip last month ended with a ceasefire brokered by Egypt that came into effect on May 21.

The conflict saw 13 people killed in Israel, according to Israeli authorities, and 255 deaths in Gaza, according to Palestinian accounts.

Kim opens door for dialogue with Biden Tribune Content Agency North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said he’s ready for “both dialogue and confrontation,” offering an opening for talks as President Joe Biden’s new nuclear envoy heads to the region to build support for a strategy toward Pyongyang.

The comments, made in a plenary meeting of the Central Committee of his ruling Workers’ Party of Korea on Thursday, are the first high-level suggestion of talks since Biden replaced Donald Trump, who met with Kim three times. Pyongyang has

so far rebuffed Biden’s requests for dialogue and lambasted the U.S. president’s comments that were critical of North Korea’s arms buildup.

Kim also tempered the remarks with a call for the country to “get fully prepared for confrontation in order to protect the dignity of our state and its interests,” according to a Friday report from the state’s official Korean Central News Agency. The message follows a pledge from Kim made at the start of the year to develop more advanced nuclear technology.

DAILY REPUBLIC — Friday, June 18, 2021 A11

With Biden’s backing, House votes to repeal 2002 authorization for Iraq war Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The House passed a resolution Thursday repealing the nearly 20-year-old authorization for the use of military force against Iraq, which presidents have ever since invoked to justify military action in the Middle East without consulting Congress.

The measure passed 268 to 161.

Sponsored by Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., H.R. 256 would repeal the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002.

Lee was the lone voice in Congress opposing granting the president’s initial widespread authority to use military force in response to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

She has tried for 19 years to get Congress to reassert its constitutional authority to declare war, part of a long-standing power struggle between the executive and legislative branches.

Lee previously added repeal of the authorization to major defense spending bills, and it has even passed the House a few times, before dying in the Senate. But now momentum seems to be on her side.

Earlier in the week, the White House announced that for the first time a sitting president supports the repeal to the 2002 authorization, adding that doing so will “likely have minimal impact on current military operations.”

Lee told the Los Angeles Times she hopes support from President Joe Biden will

U.S. Army Bradley fighting vehicles are prepared for another night of raids at the base outside of Samarra, Iraq, Dec. 18, 2003. ease the bill’s passage in the Senate.

“If the president said he doesn’t need it and this is long overdue, then why would the members of the Senate want to not support repealing it?” Lee said.

“The war is over, so I can’t imagine the argument for supporting maintaining the use of force as it relates to Iraq. It has no impact on current military operations at all.”

Sens. Tim Kaine, D-Va., and Todd Young, R-Ind., are shepherding a version of the bill through the Senate, which repeals the 2002 authorization as well as the 1991 authorization – still in effect – that paved the way for the first Persian Gulf War. Backers of the bill hope to get it to Biden’s desk

by September.

Young said in a statement that terminating old authorities for presidents to act without Congress’ explicit permission “is as important as any decision to wage war.” Congress has repealed just one of

the four authorizations for the use of military force that it has approved under the War Powers Act of 1973 – related to actions in Lebanon in 1983.

“Congress must assert its rights as a co-equal branch of government and ensure that our brave men and women in uniform are sent into war with the full backing and support of the American people’s elected representatives in Congress,” Young said.

The Senate version of the repeal is scheduled to be considered by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee next week. Kaine has said he hopes it will come to the Senate floor later this summer, ahead of the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., on Wednesday pledged a vote on the resolution this year, and for the first time announced he supports repealing the 2002 authorization.

L awma kers and

outside groups that have opposed repeal in the past have been largely silent this time.

Taking it off the books is important because future presidents might use the open-ended authorization in the future, Schumer said. For example, the Iraq war officially ended in 2011, but the authority was used as recently as 2020, when Trump cited it as part of his justification for not consulting Congress before ordering an airstrike that killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Suleimani in Baghdad.

Legal scholars and foreign policy experts questioned whether it was a valid use of the authority.

But some in the GOP still oppose a repeal.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky on Thursday called the 2002 authority “an important legal foundation” for fighting terrorist groups with ties to Iraq and called the repeal “reckless.”

Frustrating phone fails dog Phil Mickelson to start U.S. Open Bryce Miller THE SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE

Phil Mickelson experienced big-time phone trouble Thursday during the opening round of the U.S. Open. Not the Verizon or T-Mobile kind of trouble. Not the restart-the-darn-thing kind of trouble.

More like, “I’m playing in the national championship, working on a career

ANALYSIS grand slam, and phones are chirping like birds” trouble.

Three times at Torrey Pines, Mickelson stood over his second shot on No. 13, the same hole where he carded a third-round 9 to torpedo his 2008 Open. Three times, an unrelenting technological uprising forced him to step away.

“Put it on silent, please,” came the first plea.

“PLEASE,” came the second.

“Seriously?” came the third, as a police office swooped in to address what, today, is almost un-addressable.

When elusive silence finally arrived, Mickelson rocketed the ball to the other side of the fairway and into thick brush that

required a drop. That led to a second bogey through four holes, bruising a round that ended at 4-over 75.

At a U.S. Open, each lash on the scorecard draws more blood than normal.

Armijo High graduate Luis Grijalva of Northern Arizona University holds the trophy he earned for finishing second in the men’s 5000-meter race during the NCAA Track and Field Championships at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon, June 11.

About the only thing Luis Grijalva of Northern Arizona University didn’t do was win the race, though he unexpectedly came close to doing that as well.

The Armijo High graduate finished second in the men’s 5,000meter run at the NCAA National Track and Field Championships in Eugene, Oregon, June 11, and in doing so obliterated his personal best in the event by nearly 16 seconds (15.88).

With his second-place finish, Grijalva earned his second AllAmerica first team distinction in the past three months, having earned the honor in cross country in March. With his time of 13 minutes, 13.14 seconds, he eclipsed the Olympic ‘A’ standard of 13:13.50 and broke the school and Big Sky Con-

ference records set by NAU alum Diego Estrada in 2013 (13:15.33).

Success in big meets is nothing new to Grijalva, who ran away with the 2016 California Interscholastic Federation Division I boys state cross country championship despite not being the favorite. The next spring he won the 1,600-meter crown at the CIF State Track and Field Championships and nearly pulled off a rare double by finishing a close second in the 3,200.

Based on previous times, Grijalva was not one of the favorites in Eugene, coming in with a regional qualifying time of 13:57.00 that had him seeded 20th. His personal best was 13:29.02 and he was 15th in the 2019 NCAAs in 14:20.86.

here’s a simple question every Niners player – nay, every professional athlete – has to ask themselves these days: Do they want to play?

If they do, there’s an easy way to better ensure they will – they can take the Covid-19 vaccine.

In some folks’ minds, the pandemic is over. For some, it never existed in

ANALYSIS the first place. But Covid is still with us, and on Wednesday, Chris Paul became the latest star athlete to test positive.

Paul is reportedly vaccinated, and some athletes might see Paul’s positive test as an example of why not to take the vaccine.

“It didn’t do him any good, why should I put the vaccine in my body?”

This is the wrong way to look it, though.

If Paul is, indeed, vaccinated, it’s far more likely that he’ll be able to return to the court without missing any time. The Suns have already advanced to the Western Conference Finals, and they won’t start until next week.

This is a win for vaccines. What would have happened had he not had the protection

vaccinations provide? His best-ever chance at a title might have been upended.

I’ve also seen and heard professional athletes across the country claiming that they’re not vaccinated because they need more information.

“I don’t want to be part of the experiment” they’ll say.

Led by a starting pitcher who’s well on his way to his first career All-Star appearance and a catcher who enjoyed one of the best offensive days of his career, the Giants’ battery keyed a sweep of an Arizona Diamondbacks team that couldn’t catch a break if it was hit right at them.

Ace Kevin Gau sm a n to ss ed 8.0 innings of two-run ball and Buster Posey’s backup, Curt Casali, launched his first home run of the season and added a RBI triple in a 10-3 victory on Thursday that helped the 44-25 Giants improve to 19 games over .500.

The Giants’ fourgame sweep of the D’backs sent Arizona to its 23rd consecutive road loss, which established a new major league record. Gabe

Kapler’s club improved to 6-0 against the lastplace club in the NL West this season and will have 13 more opportunities to pad their record against a team that’s now 30 games under .500.

Casali’s first-inning home run marked the team’s 100th of the season in its 69th game, making the 2021 Giants the third-fastest team in franchise history to reach the century mark behind only the 1947 club (67 games) and the 2000 squad (68 games).

“That’s pretty cool,” Casali said after hitting the Giants’ 100th homer.

“Genuinely I was just hoping to hit one this year after the way it’s been going, but I’m just happy to contribute and thrilled to be on this team. It’s a blast to be around.”

4 years after trade, A’s James Kaprielian excited for first Yankee Stadium start Tribune Content Agency James Kaprielian stood on the Yankee Stadium field and cast his mind forward. It was January 2017, and the Yankees had brought a few of their young prospects to New York for a series of offseason events. Kaprielian was one. The group presented a glimpse of the team’s future.

“It’s kind of like walking into the gates of heaven, honestly,” Kaprielian said this week. “It’s pretty nice.”

The building held promise for Kaprielian. The right-hander grew up a Yankees fan in Southern California. He was drafted by the Yankees in the first round in 2015. As he toed the field that day, still 22, the stands sat empty. Snow lay on the ground. Kaprielian did not take the mound.

“I went out there and

did a couple of dry runs and envisioned pitching there, for sure,” he said.

More than four years elapsed, bringing injuries and a trade, but Friday will realize Kaprielian’s vision, albeit with some details altered. Kaprielian will start for the A’s in the opener of their threegame series in New York, opposing the team that dealt him to Oakland. He will do so in the first fullcapacity game at Yankee Stadium since before the pandemic.

“I’m excited,” Kaprielian said. “I’m not going to lie, it’s something I’ve been looking forward to since the trade happened. It is just another baseball game that we need to go out and win.

Osaka withdraws from Wimbledon, plans to compete in Olympics Tribune Content Agency LOS ANGELES — Naomi Osaka, the No.-2 ranked female tennis player in the world, has withdrawn from Wimbledon but intends to compete in the Tokyo Olympics, her representatives said in a statement issued Thursday.

Osaka, a four-time Grand Slam tournament winner, pulled out of this year’s French Open after saying she had experienced anxiety while participating in news conferences.

She initially said she would play but would skip the mandatory media sessions.

However, she withdrew after organizers of the four Grand Slam events said they might ban her from their tournaments if she continued to violate media availability rules.

When she announced her withdrawal she said for the first time publicly she had suffered long bouts of depression since her victory over Serena Williams in the 2018 U.S. Open final, a disclosure that opened discussions about the potentially adverse effects highly charged competition and its accompanying obligations can have on players’ mental health.

Osaka, 24, was born in Japan to a Haitian father and Japanese mother. She lived in Japan until she was 3 and her family moved to the United States. Her

Naomi Osaka of Japan celebrates in her First Round match against Patricia Maria Tig of Romania during Day One of the 2021 French Open at Roland Garros, May 30, in Paris. success and her ability to speak Japanese have made her immensely popular among sports fans in her native country, which she represents in international competition. She has a wide-ranging endorsement portfolio and is a favorite subject in fashion and lifestyle publications.

She lives in Los Angeles.

“She is taking some personal time with friends and family,” the statement about her withdrawal from Wimbledon said. “She will be ready for the Olympics and is excited to play in front of her home fans.”

Rafael Nadal, the thirdranked men’s player in the world, also withdrew from Wimbledon on Thursday and added he will not compete at the Tokyo Olympics. Nadal, 35, is coming off a dramatic semifinal loss to Novak Djokovic at the French Open, where he had prevailed 13 times on the clay of Roland-Garros.

Nadal was the flag bearer for Spain in the 2016 Rio Olympics and won a gold medal in doubles. He previously had won a gold medal in singles in 2008.

“It’s never an easy decision to take but after listening to my body and discuss it with my team I understand that it is the right decision,” Nadal said via social media.

“The goal is to prolong my career and continue to do what makes me happy, that is to compete at the highest level and keep fighting for those professional and personal goals at the maximum level of competition.

“The fact that there has only been 2 weeks between RG and Wimbledon didn’t make it easier on my body to recuperate after the always demanding clay court season. They have been two months of great effort and the decision I take is focused looking at the mid and long term.”

Nadal and Roger Federer are tied for the career lead in Grand Slam singles titles, with 20 each. Djokovic added his 19th title by winning the final in Paris.

Osaka’s decision to skip Wimbledon was not a complete surprise, given her stated intention to spend some time taking care of mental health. Also, the grass courts of Wimbledon have not been kind to her: She has gotten as far as the third round in her three appearances. She won her four Slam singles title on hard courts, two at the Australian Open and two at the U.S. Open.

Officials with the All England Club, which organizes Wimbledon, had reached out to Osaka and other players in recent weeks to discuss interview procedures that would satisfy the needs of players and the media.

It’s unclear if any policy changes will be adopted.

Dominic Thiem of Austria, who won the 2020 U.S. Open men’s championship and is ranked No. 5 in the world, said via social media he had withdrawn from the Olympic tournament because “2021 did not start as expected and I don’t feel ready to play my best in Tokyo. . . . My goal is to work hard the coming weeks, give my best at Wimbledon and keep training and hopefully defend my US Open title.”

Phil: Needs solid 2nd round to make cut From Page B1 that little button on the side to silent,” Mickelson said when asked about the maddening moment.

“I probably didn’t deal with it internally as well as I could have, or as well as I need to. It’s part of playing the game out here at this level.

“Certainly, I didn’t do the best job.”

Galleries swarmed the ropes during Mickelson’s lap around the South Course, as expected.

They brought phones, fat thumbs and operating miscues with them.

Distractions already swarmed Mickelson, coming off his historic PGA Championship victory last month and 51st birthday Wednesday.

From the time he stepped into a tee box, the bombardment of “C’mon, Phil,” “Let’s go, Lefty” and orders to “activate those calves” echoed.

The throng was starved to connect with the conquering local lion in even the briefest, most fleeting way with a subtle wink or cap tip. The attention they craved arrived in ways no one wanted on 13.

“It’s the video ding,” said Mickelson, explaining the unwanted noise.

“They just kept going off.

Look, it did it the next

three or four shots thereafter, too, so it’s not like that’s the first time.

It’s just that you had to ask three times.

“Again, it’s part of the game. It’s part of professional golf.”

For the record, Mickelson did not bring up any of the commotion.

He responded when the topic turned up, though, splitting blame between our modern obsession with electronics and his inability to hit mental mute.

Another bogey cropped up on No. 15, his sixth hole of the day after beginning the day on the back nine. A birdie on 17 stabilized things for the next six holes.

Back-to-back bogeys on 6 and 7 transformed a potentially survivable 2-over into something that felt dented and different.

So much of the overflowing interest was well intentioned, without doubt. A crowd surrounding the No. 12 tee belted out a full rendition of “Happy Birthday” as Mickelson offered a thumbs up in return.

“They wished him a happy birthday on just about every hole, every 50 yards,” said fellow San Diegan and playing partner Xander Schauffele, who finished

2-under. “I don’t know if he enjoyed that, but I’m sure he felt the love.”

A hole later, the accompanying audio of his round shifted from sweet to sour.

“I had one go off right in my down swing on 14,” Schauffele said. “Fortunately, I kind of just (manned) up and hit the shot and was laughing shortly after. If that ball was going left, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be smiling. I think we’ll give the fans a little break.

They haven’t been out in a while, either.

“But if they could silence their phones and the photos and everything, that would be great for us.”

There’s little argument that Mickelson’s most recent history at Torrey Pines and sitting at No. 199 in PGA Tour driving accuracy make him a decided longshot versus the U.S. Open’s thick and grouchy rough.

Most rooted for a distraction-free round, though, to learn if Mickelson planned to again surprise us and the game itself. You wanted to see the six-time Open bridesmaid fuel the chase for his personal Holy Grail. You wanted him to stoke the sexy storyline as long as Torrey’s stubborn kikuyu

grass allowed.

Instead . . . chirp . . . beep . . . buzz.

The unraveling on 13 a symmetrical 13 years ago undoubtedly planted a bit of dark dread about the U.S. Open hole somewhere in Mickelson’s head. When he struck his drop from under the shade of a Torrey pine, it one-hopped the flagstick before skittering into the greenside rough.

The stretch could have tail-spun into something worse.

“I hammered it,” Mickelson said. “But it was going to be 40 feet; it was going to be way past, too. It was coming in really hot. It’s not like it was going to be close. So, the fact that I made 6 there, that’s all I was trying to do.”

Now, Mickelson must string together one of the best rounds of his career Friday to remain in the Open hunt.

He’ll start by blocking out the noise . . . or noises.

“You have to be able to let that go and not let it get to you and be able to kind of compose yourself and re-gather your thoughts and so forth,” Mickelson said. “But they certainly didn’t do me any favors, either.”

That came through loud and uncomfortably clear.

Excuse: 49ers short of NFL’s 85% goal From Page B1 But it’s too late.

They’re already part of the experiment. They’re the control group.

It’s true that no vaccine is perfect and variants create new problems for them, but they significantly lower your chances of getting Covid, and they nearly eliminate any chance of serious illness.

Everyone is rolling the dice if they go out and about. The risk is higher, of course, for professional athletes who are traveling all over the country and soon, the world. But vaccines load those dice.

Of course, golfer Jon Rahm waited too long to play with loaded dice. He had a six-shot lead after three rounds at the Memorial when his Covid test from earlier in the day came back positive.

Rahm had waited to be vaccinated – he was still in the two-week window post-shot – and that delay likely cost him a win and

millions of dollars.

Then there are the physical downsides of getting Covid without any vaccine protection.

Celtics star Jayson Tatum is 23 years old, and he contracted Covid in January. Since then, he’s had to use an inhaler before games.

“I never took an inhaler before,” Tatum told reporters in April.

“So that’s something different. I for sure feel better now than I did a month ago.”

I’m still yet to hear a good reason as to why a professional athlete – or anyone, for that matter – wouldn’t take the vaccine.

That’s why it was so jarring when Kyle Shanahan told the media last week that the Niners were nowhere near the NFL’s 85-percent vaccination standard for relaxed protocols.

“I think we got 52 guys who have our vaccines done,” Shanahan said last Wednesday. “We need 85 percent. I don’t have a

calculator on me, but I think it’s 77 or something of the 90 that we have. So I’m hopeful we’ll get there. I think we will.”

The reasons to get the shot became even more compelling – if not compulsatory – on Wednesday. Per NFL Network, vaccinated individuals will not have to test for Covid daily or wear masks at the team facility or when traveling.

They also won’t have to distance in the facility and they’ll be allowed to do money-making ventures off the field.

Non-vaccinated folks will be tested every day, will have to wear a mask all the time, will have to remain socially distant, and will have to isolate after high-risk exposure to Covid, even if they don’t test positive.

The NFL has been known to shadow ban, but this is the league passing a shadow requirement.

Basically, for vaccinated folks, the pandemic will be over in the NFL.

For the non-vaccinated, it’ll be like last season, all over again – only this time you’ll have to look at all the things you’re missing.

And remember, the NFL ruthless, especially if you’re a player on the bottom half of the roster.

You have to be tested to test positive and a positive test means that you go home for days. If it means you’re missing a game, that might mean the day you test positive is their last day with the team. It’s harsh, but it’s reality.

Or you can take a shot that nearly 1 billion people around the world have already taken.

The 38 non-vaccinated players Shanahan referenced last week have more than a month before training camp starts.

That’s ample time to answer what should an easy question.

Do you want to play? If you do, then roll up your sleeve.

Giants: Casali blasts first HR of season From Page B1 the first Giants catcher to hit a home run and a triple in the same game since the lightning-quick Bengie Molina accomplished the feat on April 29, 2009.

“It was a pretty good feeling for everybody in the dugout, obviously Casali has had a grind of the year at the plate, but more recently, the at-bats have gotten much better,” Kapler said. “He’s been a lot more confident at the plate.”

The D’backs rushed ace Zac Gallen back from the injured list in an effort to break their

road losing skid, but after throwing just 45 pitches in a simulated outing in extended spring training last weekend, Gallen clearly wasn’t at his best against the Giants.

The right-hander needed more than 30 pitches to complete the second inning as he surrendered Casali’s first home run of the season, gave up a triple to Steven Duggar and allowed a hard-hit RBI single to Mauricio Dubón. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Gallen’s inning marked the 23rd time this season an opposing pitcher has needed at least

30 pitches to complete an inning against the Giants, which is the fourthmost such innings in the majors behind the White Sox, Dodgers and Astros.

“I’m glad I’m not starting against them,” Gausman said. “They just make guys work so much and especially a guy like myself, I throw a lot of strike-to-ball pitches and they do a really good job of laying off of those pitches, so I feel like they would give me a hard time. I’m glad I’m on the right side of it.”

Casali, Duggar and Dubon started Thursday’s game as the No. 6, No. 7 and

No. 8 hitters in the Giants’ lineup, but still provided quite a punch as they combined to go 8-for-12 with five extra-base hits, a walk and seven RBIs. “I think it’s a testament to the guys at the top just wearing pitchers down,” Duggar said. “Honestly we’re able to talk and get feedback through some of the early guys in the lineup and ultimately capitalizing on some mistakes today.”

Gausman held the D’backs to one hit in his first six innings of work and the lone single came courtesy of Gallen, who See Giants, Page B12

Alumni: Update From Page B1 in 30.91 seconds and followed that up with laps between 1:02.00 and 1:06.00 to maintain his good position.

According to report by Oregon Athletics, Campbell’s Athanas Kioko and Grijalva passed Oregon’s Cooper Teare with about 200 meters to go before Teare bounced back to take the lead for good down the final stretch.

As reported by NAU, “The final two laps around the track were tricky as Grijalva navigated his best route while simultaneously increasing his speed; the last 800 meters of Grijalva’s were by far his fastest, splitting 1:01.95, and then pouring it on with a split of 55.54 in the final stretch, passing Kioko, and stealing second place.”

To show the intensity of the race, the top 12 finishers and 14 of the top 15 set personal bests with Teare, Grijalva and Kioko besting the previous meet record time of 13:18.36 set by Arizona’s Lawi Lalang in 2014.

Jurnee Woodward (Vacaville) of LSU was the only other area athlete competing in Eugene, finished seventh in her women’s 400 hurdles semifinal heat and 17th overall in 58.47 seconds.

Pro baseball Carter Bins (Rodriguez) continues to tear it up for the Everett AquaSox, the High-A affiliate for the Seattle Mariners.

Jesse Scholtens (Rodriguez) of the El Paso Chihuahuas, the San Diego Padres Triple-A team, lost his two starts against the Oklahoma City Dodgers last week but pitched well enough to improve his stats for the season. In a 4-1 loss he allowed two runs on three hits and two walks with two strikeouts in six innings, while in an 8-3 defeat he gave up one run on four hits with three walks and four strikeouts, again over six innings. Despite going 0-2 for the week, Scholtens saw his earned run average drop from 4.07 to 3.47 and opponents’ batting average go from .224 to .206.

Tony G onsol i n (Vacaville) was sharper in his second start of the season for the Los Angeles Dodgers since coming off the 60-day injured list, yielding one run on four hits and three walks while striking out five in 3 2/3 innings in a 3-1 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. He threw 81 pitches, 51 of them strikes, his ERA dropping from 5.40 to 3.38.

The “Blindspotting” cast — with Rafael Casal and Daveed Diggs, right.

‘Blindspotting’ takes on the criminal justice system I Tribune Content Agency

t’s not only those behind bars who are trapped by incarceration.

“Blindspotting,” the Oakland-based Starz comedy, which premiered Sunday and serves as a sequel to the 2018 movie of the same name, stays almost exclusively on the other side of the prison walls, focusing on those left to pick up the pieces.

At its heart is Ashley (Jasmine Cephas Jones), a suddenly single mother after her partner Miles (Rafael Casal, reprising his role from the film) is busted for drug possession.

“It’s a story that was about watching Ashley decide and struggle with and commit to what life is now and deal with all the ramifications of a prison system that is a very tricky one to navigate,” “Hamilton” alum Daveed Diggs, who wrote and executive produced the show alongside Casal, told the Daily News.

“We get to see the effects of the prison industrial complex on people who are not incarcerated.

How it’s affecting families and whole communities.”

After Miles’ arrest, Ashley lands in the tornado of her mother-in-law’s house, now with her own son Sean and Miles’ half-sister Trish. Across the street is her best friend Janelle and her new roommate Earl.

At best, the living arrangements are chaotic: Trish is running a business out of the living room, Ashley is living on the couch, and Earl is walking around with an extension cord attached to his ankle monitor.

Ashley, though, only cares about her son.

“She’s not perfect and she’s kind of the unsung hero without a cape,” Jones, who co-starred in “Hamilton” with Diggs,

Daily Cryptoquotes

told The News.

“She doesn’t have any powers but her emotions and how she handles situations is her superpower. There are a lot of women out there like this and a lot of their stories don’t get told and we don’t see their perspective and how they handle these situations beautifully but not perfectly.”

Ashley, over the years, has put up a wall, hardened by her circumstances. Sometimes she takes it out on herself, sometimes on those trying to help, sometimes on a hotel room with a tennis racket. When she can’t express her emotions, “Blindspotting” uses verse and dance to do it for her, taking advantage of Jones’ talents and the art of local Oakland choreographers Lil Buck and Jon Boogz.

For Diggs and Casal, both Bay Area natives, showcasing their hometown on screen was as important to “Blindspotting” as Ashley’s story itself, from the taco trucks to the sideshows.

After the Golden State Warriors won the NBA championship in 2018, Casal took Jones to a parade to give her a taste of what a joyous Oakland looks like.

Where it would be easy for “Blindspotting” to lose itself in the trauma of incarceration, its writers and actors took an active choice not to do that.

“This show is an example of resilience. A lot of times, people just assume that those who are incarcerated will act a certain way or the choices they make will be the same choices that led to them getting incarcerated,” Candace Nicholas-Lippman, who plays Janelle, told The News.

“With this show, we’re opening your eyes to show these people are human. There is rehabilitation. There is reform.

There is still joy in the midst of

all the sorrow and all the hardship. There is so much power in community and knowing that those who have been incarcerated are not alone, that those who love you are still here.

We’re still rocking with you.

Those mistakes do not define you. There’s always a chance to redefine yourself.”

Helen Hunt, playing Miles’ cool mom Rainey, viewed the show as a gift to the real families going through the same dilemma as Rainey and Ashley.

“Mass incarceration does exactly what it’s supposed to do: tear people apart,” she told The News. “This is a musical comedy about people resisting that and crawling on their bellies toward each other.”

Not all is dreary in “Blindspotting.” The show takes great care to showcase Oakland at its finest, with its dance and its art and its soul. Its heart, though, comes from Ashley.

“When we talked about what Miles and Ashley’s relationship was going to be like. We don’t want to have some terribly dysfunctional relationship. We don’t want to have something that we’re just waiting for it to fall apart. . . . We do want hope at the center of it. We want to watch them try to endure a villain that is not some villain between the two of them, but is an external industry of the prison industrial complex and that’s the thing that they have to weather,” Casal told The News.

“We’re watching a community of family and friends rally around somebody to endure that and weather the storm of that is an inherently hopeful thing to watch. Many families do endure that and come out the other end but it is a trial. It is a painful process. We wanted to not rob that of its truth as well.”

this card as an honest fourth-highest, South took East’s jack with his king and immediately ran the spade jack.

After winning with the king, many Easts would return the heart eight, saying afterward that they had to lead back their partner’s suit. But this lets the contract make. Declarer wins with dummy’s ace and drives out the diamond ace. The defense collects one spade, two hearts and one diamond, but South gets the rest.

However, one East found the best defense: At trick three, he switched to the club six.

If South had guessed the position, he would have won with his ace, blocking the club suit. Instead, he not unnaturally played low. Now, though, after West won with the club queen, he returned the heart queen. South ducked but had to win the next heart trick. West took trick six with his diamond ace and cashed his last heart to defeat the contract.

‘I’ll Be Gone in the Dark’ returns Chuck Barney East Bay Times

D

on’t miss: “I’ll Be Gone in the Dark” – Almost a year after it premiered, the compelling true-crime documentary returns with a special episode – an addendum to the story of author Michelle McNamara’s hunt for the elusive criminal known as the Golden State Killer. Arrested in 2018, Joseph James DeAngelo pleaded guilty to multiple counts of rape, kidnapping and murder committed in California during the 1970s and ’80s. When he was sentenced to life in prison last August, many survivors gathered at his hearing to talk publicly about the pain they suffered and face their attacker. The episode also features another cold case that McNamara looked into before her death in 2016: the 1984 rape and murder of Kathy Lombardo in Oak Park, Illinois. (10 p.m.

ET Monday, HBO).

Other bets: Sunday: Emmy-winner Annie Murphy (“Schitt’s Creek”) headlines “Kevin Can F**K Himself,” a new highconcept dramedy that skewers TV’s generic sitcom wife archetypes. She plays Allison Roberts, a Boston woman married to an overweight, self-centered man-child (Kevin McRoberts), and, basically, she wants him dead. (9 p.m., AMC).

Sunday: As season two of the psychological mystery “Evil” unfolds, Kristen (Katja Herbers) struggles with her darker nature, while David (Mike Colter) suffers temptation as he gets closer to his ordination. The creepy series also shifts from CBS to the network’s streaming sibling. (Paramount+).

Monday: Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott return for new episodes of their heartwarming series “Celebrity IOU.” Among the famous folks poised to surprise special people in their lives with stunning home renovations are Kevin Hart, Kim Kardashian, LeAnn Rimes, Gwyneth Paltrow and Josh Groban. (9 p.m., HGTV).

Tuesday: It’s a battle of brainiacs in the “Capital One College Bowl.” Two-time Super

Bowl champ Peyton Manning hosts this reboot of the venerable quiz show in which bright students put their knowledge to the test as they compete for academic scholarships.

(10 p.m., NBC).

Wednesday: The popular no-dating dating show “Too Hot to Handle” returns for another steamy season. Ten chastitychallenged singles again must refrain from any intimate acts (They can’t even kiss!) in order to win the $100,000 prize. (Netflix).

Thursday: Ready, set, craft! Hosts Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman are back for season three of “Making It,” a competition that celebrates the joy and creativity of handmade projects. Eight talented makers chase a $100,000 grand prize.

(8 p.m., NBC).

Thursday: On the season finale of “Clarice,” our title character is imprisoned in an animal testing facility after learning of Alastor Pharmaceuticals’ dark secrets. There, she finds trafficked women being held captive.

(10 p.m., CBS).

Thursday: In season five of the acclaimed drama series “The Good Fight,” Diane questions whether it’s appropriate for her to help run an African American law firm after it loses two top lawyers. Meanwhile, the firm becomes entangled with Hal Wackner (Mandy Patinkin), a man with no legal training who opens a court in the back of a copy shop.

(Paramount+).

Friday: Trophies in more than 40 categories will be handed out during the “48th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards” telecast. Among the nominees is the late “Jeopardy!” co-host Alex Trebek. (8 p.m., ABC and Paramount+).

Saturday: “Doomsday Mom: The Lori Vallow Story” is a TV movie inspired by the true story of Lori Vallow (Lauren Lee Smith), who gained infamy in 2019 when her two children were reported missing. The investigation led to a trail of mystery spanning five states and numerous suspicious deaths. Marc Blucas, Linda Purl and Patrick Duffy also star.

(8 p.m., Lifetime).

US jobless claims rose last week Tribune Content Agency Applications for U.S. state unemployment insurance rose slightly for the first time since late April, likely a temporary blip for a labor market that’s otherwise improving as the economy reopens.

Initial claims in regular state programs increased by 37,000 to 412,000 in the week ended June 12, Labor Department data showed Thursday. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for 360,000 applications.

The jump in claims was concentrated in three states – Pennsylvania, California and Kentucky.

Even with the increase, layoffs have declined significantly in recent months as health concerns ebb and businesses ramp up hiring.

Economists forecast continued improvement in the labor market through the end of the year, with an expectation that the unemployment rate will fall below 5% by the end of the fourth quarter.

Meantime, Michigan and Alabama posted the largest declines in initial claims.

Continuing claims for ongoing state benefits were little changed at 3.5 million the week ended June 5. Initial applications for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance for self-employed and gig workers rose last week.

Federal Reserve officials are watching for signs that employment is “inclusive and broad-based.” At the conclusion of the Fed’s two-day policy meeting Wednesday, Chair Jerome Powell said the pace of improvement in the labor market has been uneven.

As a result of the anxiety and frustrations brought on by dealing with angry customers, he’s looking into job opportunities that would let him work remotely.

“The desperation level for me to get out of my job now has amplified to where I submit an application multiple times a day,” he said.

“I spend every single break and lunch at work job hunting.”

Darcey May, the general manager of Things From Another World, a comic store at Universal CityWalk, said that after seeing so many customers aggressively flout pandemic rules in recent weeks, it might be hard now for her to trust that barefaced customers are fully vaccinated.

What would May like to see from customers? “Just a little more concern for employees and their safety.”

No. Be cool. We’re trying our best.”

“Good vibes bring on good vibes,” Martirosyan added. “We all need it, we all need that energy after this year, so we can move forward collectively.”

WARNING-IMPORTANT INFORMATION California law provides that, for purposes of division of property upon dissolution of a marriage or domestic partnership or upon legal separation, property acquired by the parties during marriage or domestic partnership in joint form is presumed to be community property. If either party to this action should die before the jointly held community property is divided, the language in the deed that characterizes how title is held (i.e., joint tenancy, tenants in common, or community property) will be controlling, and not the community property presumption. You should consult your attorney if you want the community property presumption to be written into the recorded title to the property.

ADVERTENCIA-INFORMACION IMPORTANTE De acuerdo a la ley de California, las propiedades adquiridas por las partes durante su matrimonia o pareja de hecho en forma conjunta se consideran propiedad comunitaria para fines de la division de bienes que ocurre cuando se produce una disolucion o separacion legal del matrimonio o pareja de hecho.

Si quiere que la presuncion comunitaria quede registrada en la escritura de la propiedad, deberia consultar con un abogado.

A’s: Kaprielian traded in deadline deal From Page B1 team a chance to win.”

Kaprielian is the last player still with either team from the 2017 deadline deal in which the A’s sent Sonny Gray to the Yankees for prospects Kaprielian, Jorge Mateo and Dustin Fowler.

Gray spent the rest of 2017 and 2018 with New York, compiling a 15-16 record and 4.51 ERA, then was traded to the Reds. Fowler played in 69 games for the A’s in 2018 and was designated for assignment this spring.

Mateo did not appear in a game for the A’s before being traded last June to the Padres.

For Kaprielian to make an impact was going to require time.

He was months removed from Tommy John surgery when the trade occurred and had pitched in just eight minor-league games.

He was rehabbing in California when the Yankees delivered the news.

“I was shocked, honestly,” Kaprielian said.

“The Yankees drafted me. That was my favorite team growing up, too, so I always felt like a little bit of loyalty, like I wanted to be prideful and represent that organization well.

“You kind of learn that it’s just part of the business and not to take it too personal and stuff. But at the end of the day, we are elite competitors. I want to be the piece that helps

be the winning side of the trade. I take pride in that, and I’m all A’s.”

Shoulder issues after elbow surgery forced Kaprielian to miss all of the 2017 and 2018 seasons.

His first major-league action in 2020 was brief, comprising two relief outings. The last month has provided a larger opportunity. Kaprielian joined an injury-thinned A’s rotation in mid-May and has not relinquished his spot. In six starts, he is 3-1 with a 2.51 ERA. Inning one of his first major-league start set a tone. Three batters in, Kaprielian faced a basesloaded jam in Boston. He threw 31 pitches in the inning but held the Red Sox to one run. He did not allow another while finishing five innings. Teams have made Kaprielian work, yet in five of six starts, he has allowed two runs or fewer.

K apr iel i a n has danced around trouble.

Opposing hitters are 3-for-26 against him with runners in scoring position, albeit with eight walks. He has faced 11 batters with the bases loaded; they are 0-for-9 with a walk and a sacrifice fly. Those situations have been partly of his making: He has issued 16 walks and allowed 22 hits but has struck out 35 batters in 32 1/3 innings.

“We’d always kind of known and heard

about that in James, and I think that’s one of his strengths is that he really does compete,” A’s manager Bob Melvin said.

“We weren’t sure what we were going to get. We saw it early in that game in Boston that he had to compete hard and get through that first inning.

He’s been tested a few times where he’s had to dig a little bit deeper and compete and get out of innings, and I think it’s been good to him up until this point. So he definitely has that. And you really don’t know that until you put them under the fire several times and see how they respond.”

It would not surprise Kevin Lavalle, who coached Kaprielian at Beckman High School in Irvine. In high school, Kaprielian did not face many jams. But Lavalle noted how he handled big moments.

Beckman won a CIF championship in Kaprielian’s junior year. Lavalle said he still shows his players the video of Kaprielian pitching the last inning of the title game. “ We’r e pl ay i n g at Dodger Stadium. I think there was one out. He falls behind 3-0,” Lavalle said. “He went behind the mound. He tied his shoe.

Crowd of 4,000 people, the other side, started booing. He kind of got a smile on his face. And then he took a little bit more time just to kind of

get under their skin. And then he threw three fastballs right by the guy.”

Amid baseball’s shutdown last year, Kaprielian threw bullpen sessions at Beckman, Lavalle said.

He seemed unusually relaxed, which Lavalle guessed partly reflected not having a clear idea of where he would pitch that year. Kaprielian spent most of the short season at the A’s alternate site, debuting with two relief innings in an Aug. 16 win over the Giants.

“I think going into this spring he had a real clear-cut idea of what he was competing for,” Lavalle said.

Kaprielian began in the minors but took the mound at Fenway Park on May 12. Four times in his five innings, he allowed a runner in scoring position. Eight Boston hitters reached base against him. All but one were stranded. It offered Kaprielian another glimpse ahead.

“I love those moments, honestly,” Kaprielian said. “Like Boston, when we were out there, bases loaded. It felt like a playoff atmosphere. And I tried to put myself in a playoff atmosphere. I know it was my first start. But I’m telling myself, ‘This is what playoffs are going to be like, so embrace it.’ ”

The D’backs tagged Gausman for a pair of runs in the seventh, meaning the right-hander’s ERA actually increased from 1.43 to 1.51.

Gausman, a native of Colorado, has never made an All-Star appearance in his nine-year major league career, but he’s been one of the best pitchers in the majors this season and has put him in position to potentially start the Mid-

summer Classic at Coors Field, where he grew up attending games.

Should he start the game over New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom, who owns a 0.54 ERA but has thrown 22 fewer innings than Gausman?

“Our guy gets my vote,” Kapler said. “Obviously because I see the work day in and day out, I see the preparation, I see the consistent performance and the ability to put the rest of our team on his shoulders often times. I think he’s worthy of consideration and I’m obviously behind that 100%.”
