Indigo girls everybody i want to thank jay weinberg and the 8g band. Thanks for watching. We love you everybody. [ cheers and applause ] many people want her out, but shes keeping her job. A late night decision from the Antioch School board. This is a story our Investigative Unit exposed weeks ago. Now a major development. The Antioch School board voted to keep its superintendent despite claims shes ignored accusations of bullying by a District Supervisor because theyre friends. Nbc bay areas pete cerritos was at tonights meeting, which got heated and a vote tonight by the Antioch School board to remove the superintendent was unsuccessful. And that vote is not sitting well with residents who feel that the superintendent isnt being held accountable. What do we want . When do we want it . Now a majority of the crowd at tonights Antioch School Board Meeting expressing frustration with the School Boards vote to not remove superintendent stephanie anello. The vote was two three and the motion did not pass. This isnt the first time this board, our Investigative Unit uncovering bullying claims by Antioch Unified School District Supervisor kenneth turnage. Our investigation confirming several employee complaints about turnage, including an incident where he directed workers to move an employees desk to a rooftop to publicly humiliate him and those making the claims believe turnages close relationship with the superintendent and her husband, former Antioch Police chief alan cantando, is why he wasnt disciplined sooner, with a board member confirming that he was not put on administrative leave until three days after our report. A very disappointed and nervous. I mean, i feel like our district is in chaos right now. Kim atkinson spoke at tonights meeting and was one of the district employees who came forward with bullying claims. In our investigation, she feels the board is sending the wrong message to the community by keeping the superintendent in her position. There is no value in in the staff, the community or the students. Board president Antonio Hernandez agrees, and was one of the two members who voted to remove anello. I think our board needs to understand that the community is angry, that we need to rebuild trust, that this district is not moving in the right direction. Board member gary haake is one of the three trustees who voted against removing the superintendent. He says he doesnt know the details of the bullying claims and based his decision on his working relationship with anello. She told me, become a better board member and also as a teacher, and she was the principal way back when i first met her. She i think, is a professional. Anello was not. At tonights meeting. We reached out to her and the School District for comment, but have yet to hear back in antioch. Pete serratos nbc bay area news. Well tomorrows a big day around here. President biden will arrive in the bay area for two big money and high profile fundraisers. His visit comes amid rising tensions over the israelhamas war and those protests that continue on our College Campuses. Nbcs Jocelyn Moran will be there for the president s arrival at Moffett Field tomorrow, and joins us tonight with more details. Jocelyn.

Joe biden is set to land in the bay area thursday for fundraising events in San Francisco and palo alto through friday. Meanwhile, the first lady will touch down at sfo. She will be speaking at an event in marin county thursday evening. This comes as the Biden Administration continues to face fierce criticism at College Campuses throughout the country, where propalestinian encampments have been set up, including here in the bay area at uc berkeleys San Francisco state and Stanford University. I think, quite frankly, that its immensely disrespectful that in a in that in an election year, he is coming not to our campus to meet the popular body of his constituency, but rather going to a private donor event three blocks off of stanford. The Palo Alto Police Department Says its working with other Law Enforcement agencies to prepare and plan for the president s visit tonight, in a move that would mark a shift in u. S. Policy toward the war, biden says the u. S. Will not supply israel with certain weapons if its military invades rafah. If they go into rafah, im not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal with rafah, Senior Administration officials confirmed the white house last week halted a shipment of offensive weapons that included 2,000 pound bombs. Israeli troops already moved in. At the rafah Border Crossing with egypt earlier this week, closing that critical lifeline for humanitarian aid. This man saying they said this was a safe area. There is no safe place in gaza. The Biden Administration continues to push for a cease fire deal. And as biden prepares for his visit to the bay area Palo Alto Police also adds they are having to call in extra personnel to ensure they have adequate staffing.

Happening tomorrow, california regulators will vote on a proposal that could save some people money on their monthly pg and e bills. They include low income earners and owners of electric cars. But under this plan, other customers could end up paying more. The new system is aimed at reducing costs for people impacted by extreme weather, like heat waves and those who charge their electric cars at home. The proposal has two parts it would lower the usage rate by 5 to 0. 07 per kilowatt hour, with rates dropping nearly 10 during peak hours. Under the flat rate, customers would pay about 24 a month, with discounts of up to 12 bucks for those with lower incomes. A lot of people ask, is there a way to just get rid of pg and e . Our rates have nearly doubled since 2019, which has many people frustrated and angry. Now the city of richmond wants california to be able to opt out. City leaders want to replace pg and e with the not for profit utility. Is that even possible . Heres nbcs Terry Mcsweeney. Motion passes with Council Members appear absent. The Richmond City Council Voted unanimously last night to ask the state to replace pg and e, which has doubled its rate since 2019 with golden state energy, a nonprofit Public Benefit utility. We want the needs of the people put first safety, reliability, affordability, health and climate issues come first for communities and not profits. Pg and e issuing a statement in response saying this type of ownership framework would not benefit customers. Taxpayers local communities, the state or californias economy. Pg and going on to say it would cost taxpayers tens of billions of dollars in long term debt, increased taxpayer liability in case of wildfires, and lacks critical federal and state oversight that people are looking for rate relief. Now, the switch from pg and e could cost lots of time and money, according to mark toney, the executive director of the Utility Reform Network or turn, he thinks its unlikely the Richmond City councils resolution will snowball statewide. You have to buy out the investors. You have to pay for the wires, for the poles, for the whole infrastructure for. And thats a years long process. Toney says when the sacramento municipal utility district took over pg and e, it cost billions of dollars and it took decades. He says its a faster and cheaper way to do things, and its in the hands of state lawmakers right now. We need to hold shareholders responsible for paying 50 of all cost overruns, instead of ratepayers paying 100. Hes calling for a law capping rate hikes and for pg and e to choose the least expensive solution to wildfires, for example, insulating wires instead of burying them, and the pg and e spending ratepayer money for Television Commercials for self promotion. Weve seen Something Like this before. San francisco attempted to cut ties with pg and e in 2019, and offered a 2 billion buyout, the utility said no.
