- Restricting immigrants to K-12 schools: More than 40 years ago, the US Supreme Court issued a decision guaranteeing all students, regardless of their immigration status, the right to free public education of the K-12. But experts warn that President Donald Trump’s administration can move on to roll over this decision and direct countries to blame the training of immigrant families – even if their children are US citizens. If this happens, it will have a huge effect on California, where almost half of the children of the state have at least one parent of immigrants. Read more by Calmatters’ Carolyn JonesS

The proposed concern for the energy market nourishes
After progressing through the state senate in June, the Assembly is considering legislation that would create a new system in the electricity market among Western countries, which can lead to more low electricity bills for Californians. But critics say that can also leave the state vulnerable to Trump’s impetus for more dependence on coalWrite Calletatters’ Alejandro Lazo and Jean QuangS
Supported by governor Gavin Newo, the proposal will allow California to trade electricity more free with several other states. Proponents claim that the regional market would increase the use of renewable energy, make its own network in California more stable and prepare the country easier for extreme weather.
But Bill’s opponents claim that the risks exceed the benefits. Some of the potential states that could be included in the new energy market rely on coal for energy, such as Wyoming, Utah and New Mexico. Given Trump’s previous actions to dismantle federal and state environmental defenses, the creation and accession to the regional market can expose the state to federal rules that require more fossil fuels on the energy market.
