Relatives of murder victims celebrate California's death row commutations

of murder victims are coming out in support of Governor Newsom and his plan to commute all California death sentences. The group held a virtual news conference. They're urging the state Supreme Court to approve Governor Newsom's plan. Of the 548 inmates on death row, 382 of their commutations require approval of the state's high court. The families, including the sisters of Polly Klaas, who was kidnapped and killed in 1993 by Richard Allen Davis, say despite their pain, they have a moral opposition to the death penalty. We do not forgive the man who did this. And yet we've also come to realize that as long as he is never able to cause harm again, it is irrelevant to our process of healing or justice what actually happens to him, including how he ultimately dies. But an unexpected and very painful series of events eventually led me to question whether the death penalty would provide the true justice that I sought. According to the group, 50 families have also sent Governor Newsom a letter encouraging him to follow through with his plans. However, as we reported last week, when he announced the plan, it also attracted harsh criticism from other victims' families and district attorneys across the state. Well, UFC CEO Dana White will not be the next White House press secretary. White appeared alongside President Trump right there at an impromptu news conference days after President Trump suggested that White could take the role of being the White House press secretary. The president now says it was never a serious statement. We were having a very bad press day. And I said, I don't know why, I thought of his name. He's been my friend for a long time. I said, you know, I think I'm going to get Dana White to be my new press secretary. I said it to a group of the press, and that was it. I was sort of kidding. And then they wrote the story as though I wasn't kidding. Now the top press job at the White House, it's still open. The previous press secretary, Katie Zacharia, was fired after only five days on the job. Our time now, 5:36, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors will soon consider an ordinance to raise the pay for workers at SFO. The Board of Supervisors President, Raphael Mandelman, announced the introduction of an ordinance on the steps of City Hall. He was joined by Union Airport workers. The legislation calls for amending the city's minimum compensation ordinance to raise the living wage for airport workers to $30 an hour by the year 2030. Right now, it's about $19.60. People who make SFO run should be able to afford to live somewhere reasonably near to our airport. That's right. Seems like a no-brainer, but right now, for thousands of workers at the airport, it's just not true. Now, the proposed legislation would affect baggage handlers, wheelchair attendants, car rental staff, aircraft cabin cleaners, and others. Supervisor Mandelman is due to introduce the measure today to the Board of Supervisors.
