LAUSD Needs a New Defense Law Firm that Has Compassion for its Clients Details
COMMENTARY-As former president Donald Trump’s cruel and inhumane policies towards immigrants are rapidly dismantled by new humanitarian leadership in the White House, one of the most high-profile law firms in our county has become a refuge for Trump administration castaways.
Jones Day has recently hired at least six high-ranking Trump administration veterans to plum jobs at the prestigious law practice. While Jones Day represents many large corporations, it may come as a surprise that one of its largest clients is the Los Angeles Unified School District.
WASHINGTON
President Biden, saying the U.S. has “significantly underinvested in core public services,” will ask Congress for a 16% boost in annual spending for a range of domestic programs, the White House announced Friday.
The first installment of Biden’s budget for the fiscal year starting Oct. 1 asks for just over $1.5 trillion for so-called discretionary spending the roughly one-quarter of federal outlays governed by annual appropriations laws. Slightly more than half the money would go to domestic programs with the rest to national security.
The increase in domestic spending would expand programs on health, education, housing, scientific research and climate change, reflecting the priorities of the new administration. Money for civil rights enforcement and efforts to combat violence against women also would get large boosts.

All K-12 California schools should be open in the fall for full-time, five-days-a-week, in-person instruction under guidelines released Tuesday by state officials.
Gov. Gavin Newsom stopped short Tuesday of saying this guidance would become a mandate, but added that he is considering additional measures, as necessary, to make sure that schoolchildren are not left behind on June 15, when the state has scheduled a sweeping economic reopening.
Newsom said campuses at all levels, including higher education, should be open. He added this is consistent with his actions to date to reopen classrooms, which have included financial incentives and accelerated vaccinations for school employees.
