- ➤ An EdSource investigation found that many California school boards are letting cities and counties charge millions for police officers at schools by bundling police services with other school spending without public review.

- ➤ A California bill to protect kids from harmful anti-aging skincare products passed a key policy committee, with Assembly Member Alex Lee warning that chemicals like Retinol can cause irritation and severe skin issues.
