FILE - This March 12, 2020, file photo, shows the Abraham Lincoln High School in San Francisco. San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera announced last week he was taking the dramatic step of suing the city’s own school district, which has kept its classrooms closed nearly a year. In the motion filed Thursday in San Francisco Superior Court, Herrera included alarming testimony from hospitals in the San Francisco Bay Area, doctors and parents on the emotional and mental harms of extended distance learning. San Francisco’s 52,000 public school students have been out of classes since March. Public health officials have allowed city schools to reopen since September but the district and teachers unions have not been able to finalize a deal on reopening classrooms.

Teachers unions in many large school districts, including San Francisco, say they won’t go back to classrooms until they are vaccinated. “Not a single San Francisco public school student has set foot in their classroom in 327 days,” Herrera said at a news conference, calling it shameful and unlawful. While the vast majority of California’s public schools have been closed since March, San Francisco schools have been allowed to reopen since September. Since the start of the pandemic, San Francisco has been on the cutting edge of COVID-19 restrictions. Newsom sidestepped direct comment on the San Francisco lawsuit, saying everyone is on the same page and wants to reopen schools safely.

Big Oil loses appeal, climate suits go to California courts

Circuit Court of Appeals said state courts are the proper forum for the lawsuits alleging that Big Oil promoted petroleum as environmentally responsible when producers knew it was causing damage. (AP Photo/Paul Sakuma, File)LOS ANGELES Big Oil lost a pair of court battles Tuesday that could lead to trials in lawsuits by California cities and counties seeking damages for the impact of climate change.

The companies had argued that federal law controls fossil fuel production, and Congress has encouraged oil and gas development.

Juul loses home turf as San Francisco bans e-cigarette sales

Juul, which is based in San Francisco and has grown to be the dominant e-cigarette maker in the United States, has been at the center of the debate. No big deal.San Francisco city officials last year approved a ban on flavored tobacco and e-cigarette liquids, a move upheld by voters. Juul last month filed paperwork in San Francisco for another ballot measure that experts say would make the flavor ban and Tuesdays e-cigarette ban unenforceable. Juul spokesman Kwong disagreed that the ballot initiative would affect the flavor ban, but said it would supersede the e-cigarette ordinance approved on Tuesday. City officials also passed a separate ordinance prohibiting the manufacture and distribution of all tobacco products on city property.

San Francisco is 1st city in US to pass ban on e-cig sales

(CNN) - San Francisco will become the first US city to effectively ban e-cigarette sales, after the city's board of supervisors voted in favor of an ordinance Tuesday. This includes sales in brick-and-mortar stores, as well as online sales shipped to a San Francisco address. This puts San Francisco -- where leading e-cig maker Juul Labs is headquartered -- at the center of a tense debate. Juul is also behind a ballot initiative that experts worry could roll back the city ordinance if voters approve it in upcoming elections. "If the federal government is not going to act to protect our kids, San Francisco will."
