Pacific Power Seeks 57% Rate Hike for Northern California Customers

The filing, submitted to the California Public Utilities Commission in November 2026, could push the typical residential bill up by $120 a month if approved as written.

Downtown Sacramento restaurant abruptly shuts, workers file suit alleging wage theft

Echo & Rig, the steakhouse and butcher shop in Downtown Commons inside Sacramento’s Kimpton Sawyer Hotel, appears to have abruptly closed, and an employee has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of himself and others who the suit alleges have not been paid. The lawsuit was filed Nov. 2 in Sacramento Superior Court by Gavrilov & Brooks on behalf of Micah Bramwell and other employees at the restaurant, which is at 500 J St. Suite 150. The suit accuses the restaurant and its owner of failure to pay timely wages, failure to pay all wages upon separation, noncompliant wage statements, rest break violations, failure to reimburse necessary business expenses and unfair business practices. The plaintiff is seeking to recover the underpaid damages, penalties, interest, attorney’s fees and costs. TikTok user Erika posted a video on Thursday showing text from an email from the management and images of the empty restaurant. “Unfortunately today we received (an) email, that they decided to (close) their doors forever at the Sacramento location ... and none of the staff including myself got paid!

After student's father detained, Sac City Unified presses city for ICE alerts

Sacramento City Unified School District leaders said Tuesday the father of an Earl Warren Elementary student was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement the day before, a few blocks from the school. At a news conference, board members urged Sacramento police to alert the district when verified ICE activity occurs near schools. The call came as the district pressed for better coordination after ICE agents in late October were spotted near Ethel Phillips Elementary, causing concern among students and families during after school pickup. “We can prepare for what happens on our campuses. Unfortunately, we cannot control what happens on the streets surrounding them,” school board member Jasjit Singh said Tuesday. “We need timely, credible information. We need direct radio communication between our school safety team and the police department, and we need city sanctuary policies that place students and families at the forefront and are centered around how to prepare and how to respond.” According to Singh, the district learned about the detention through the school, after the principal was informed that the student’s father had been detained. The detention took place near the 65th Street, by St. Mary Cemetery, Singh said. The detention came three days after
