A proposal to create single-payer health care in California has been tabled until next year freeing Newsom from having to take a stance in a heated intra-party debate as he faces an almost-certain recall election. The bill’s lead author, Assemblymember Ash Kalra, said Wednesday that he chose to delay consideration of the bill until January 2022 in response to “many of my colleagues” raising “concerns that the funding mechanism for the bill had not been identified.”

In 93 years of existence, the Oscars have been postponed by shootings â the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. and the attempted killing of Ronald Reagan â and by a flood, when 1938 rainstorms overwhelmed the Los Angeles River. Sundayâs ceremony will be the first Academy Awards delayed by a pandemic.
The interior of Union Station in Los Angeles appears on March 23, 2021. The Oscars are headed to the historic site for the first time this year. With wide open spaces and 65-foot high ceilings, itâs ideal for a big crew and cameras. Itâs been used in car commercials, reality shows and procedurals. But its beamed ceilings, Spanish tile floors and regal bronze chandeliers really shine in cinema where itâs played train stations, banks, police stations, clubs and airports.
