Law School Name Change | Immigrant ID | Jupiter: NorCal In Brief

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — As the weekend wraps up, we've rounded up all the stories you may have missed Saturday and Sunday to prepare you for Monday.

But before we jump into Northern California’s top stories, Golden State residents should grab their telescopes and look upwards Monday night, when Jupiter is expected to be at its closest point to Earth in nearly six decades.

Back on Earth, Governor Newsom signed a raft of progressive legislation.

On Friday, he signed a bill to rename UC Hastings College of the Law, which was named after Serranus Clinton Hastings. Hastings founded the campus in 1878, and committed atrocities against the Yuki Native American Tribe. The bill also renames the university’s law library, and the law school plans to read a statement detailing atrocities Hastings committed, and provide experience for tribal students to gain debate and writing experience.

Assembly Bill 1936, authored by Assemblymember James Ramos, is meant to advance "restorative justice efforts for Round Valley Indian Tribes and Yuki people whose ancestors suffered mass killings and other atrocities funded and supported by college founder Serranus Hastings in the mid-19th century."

Newsom also signed AB 1766, which will allow all undocumented California residents to obtain a State ID, which will allow them to gain employment, health care, housing, tuition, and secure a bank account. It was one of several bills signed Friday that allow improved access to in-state tuition, ESL courses at community colleges, and further options to finance college educations.

From a raft of new bills to a swelling lottery jackpot to fires, shootings, and arrests, here are the NorCal stories you may have missed this weekend:
