  • The far-reaching impacts of California's COVID emergency bail order

    The far-reaching impacts of California's COVID emergency bail order
    Nov 26 2024
    Doug Sovern is off today. When the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic hit California back in March of 2020, it had a seismic effect across all aspects of the state's systems, including the judicial system. The Judicial Council of California responded by issuing an emergency bail order to reduce viral transmission in courts and jails and the policy had far-reaching effects on the number of people who were immediately released after being arrested. For a closer look, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart spoke with Dr. Deepak Premkumar, research fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California.

    California's plan to go carbon-neutral by 2045 is raising eyebrows among experts. The state is producing so much solar energy that commercial operators are being forced to stop production. This as electric rates in the state are roughly twice the national average. For more, KCBS Radio anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart were joined by Severin Borenstein, Faculty director at the Energy Institute at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business.

    Doug Sovern is away today. This atmospheric river is dumping intense rain across Northern California and more wet weather is expected in the coming days. The National Weather Service issued multiple flash flood warnings for San Francisco and other parts of the Bay Area. This storm marks the first major rainmaker of the season and it's bringing life threatening conditions with it. To talk more about it, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising spoke with Jackson Yip, meteorologist at San Jose State University, and Mary Ellen Carroll, the Executive Director at San Francisco Department of Emergency Management.
