\u2018Mega Master\u2019 Immigration Hearings <\/p>\n

California immigration advocates and legal experts are raising concerns about a new federal immigration court initiative designed to drastically expedite deportation order cases. Courts across the country started rolling out \u201cmega masters\u201d<\/a> that bring as many as 100 immigrants into court proceedings at the same time, raising concerns about due process and access to legal representation. CapRadio Statehouse Politics Reporter Gerardo Zavala<\/a> went to a recent hearing inside Sacramento\u2019s John Moss Federal Building and joins us with his reporting.<\/p>\n

Tahoe Utility Searches For New Power Supplier <\/p>\n

Thousands of California customers in the Lake Tahoe region will need a new power supplier next year. Liberty Utilities services approximately 50,000 customers across the Tahoe Basin. The California-based company sources its energy from Nevada – a majority purchased through NV Energy which announced it will stop supplying Liberty after May 2027. Both utilities maintain that customers will not be left in the dark during the transition to find a new supplier. But the announcement has sparked months of media coverage. CapRadio Senior Producer Sarit Laschinsky<\/a> joins us with his reporting about the search for new energy across state lines, the concerns from residents over potential rate hikes, as well as the role of data centers in this transition.<\/p>\n

California Indian Heritage Center <\/p>\n

California has the largest Native American population in the country with more than 700,000 people in the state and over 109 federally recognized tribes. In April<\/a>, Governor Gavin Newsom, in collaboration with tribes, broke ground on the California Indian Heritage Center<\/a>. Located in West Sacramento, the new center will look to honor and preserve the history of indigenous people in the state \/ for future generations. Helping to coordinate these efforts and bring the center to life is the Governor\u2019s Office of Tribal Affairs, led by Secretary Christina Snider-Ashtari<\/a>. She joined us to tell us more about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u2018Mega Master\u2019 Immigration Hearings | Tahoe Utility Searches For New Power Supplier | California Indian Heritage Center …\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":351390,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[145283,701,702,121,123,122],"class_list":["post-356672","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sacramento","tag-mega-master-immigration-hearings-tahoe-utility-searches-for-new-power-supplier-california-indian-heritage-center","tag-capital-public-radio","tag-cpr","tag-sacramento","tag-sacramento-headlines","tag-sacramento-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=356672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356672\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/351390"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=356672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=356672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=356672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
