federal election commission chair, has filed an fec complaint against evan lowe. >> someone in the campaign of sam liccardo asked me if i would take a look at what had happened. >> the complaint alleges that lowe's campaign did not disclose that it used the nonprofit's email list and email server as an in-kind contribution, an example given in the complaint shows an email sent in february with a link that directed users to a page hosted by nonprofit stand with asian americans. though raval is listed as an endorser on liccardo's website and acknowledged it, she said the complaint is not about that. >> my rationale for this has nothing to do with sam liccardo and my support of him, or any feeling particularly about evan lowe. what i care about is democratic process. >> lowe's campaign sent a statement saying sam liccardo is once again deploying his supporters to make false

accusations against our campaign and distract his own shady conduct. this is simply a case of a volunteer working in their personal capacity using the wrong hyperlink. the email list was purchased from the county registrar and reported by the campaign. liccardo's campaign issued a statement saying in part, quote, evan lowe will do anything to further his political career. the statement went on to bring up other allegations against lowe and say, quote, it's gotten so bad. barack obama's former fec chair is now calling him out. this all comes months after multiple candidates ran in the primary race for district 16. sam liccardo won first place by a wide margin. initially, evan lowe and joe simitian won second place in a tie until a recount request was made. that request was made by a former staffer. on liccardo's 2014 san jose mayoral campaign. liccardo's team did not claim a current association with that staffer. two fec complaints were filed against liccardo in the aftermath. as for the complaints against lowe, raval said she's leaving what happens next to the fec? >> they're the ones who will

have to investigate this, not m. >> now we did also hear from the nonprofit at the middle. in the middle of this stand with asian americans. it's called they sent us an email that said in part, it is a strictly nonpartisan organization, and that it did not provide email lists to the lowe campaign. and that it's against its policies to share subscribers information to external entities. right now live in the south bay bureau. zach fuentes, abc seven news. >> all right, zach, thank you for that. one of the most controversial statewide propositions on november's ballot aims to get tough on crime. among those supporting proposition 36 is elizabeth walker, whose son colin died after taking cocaine laced with fentanyl. proposition 36 would increase penalties for certain theft and drug crimes. it would have allowed murder charges to be filed against the person who sold colin. the drug. >> my son was murdered. someone put poisoning into what he should not have been taking. >> like we're criminalizing homelessness. we're criminalizing poverty. is that what america is about? is that

company was ready to launch its newest mission, called polaris dawn, tomorrow. but there's a helium leak that needs to be checked. the earliest the falcon nine rocket could launch is wednesday. it will be a nail biting, five day trek into orbit with a crew of four private astronauts traveling into earth's radiation belts, hoping to conduct the first ever commercial spacewalk. three flights aimed to test new technologies that can help advance musk's goal of seeing humans live and work on other planets. >> spacex is going to help two stranded astronauts return to earth. butch wilmore and suni suni williams arrived at the international space station in june. the trip was supposed to last eight days. well, it's turning into eight months. the boeing starliner. they launched on was has been plagued by

problems. so nasa is turning to spacex to get the astronauts home. this is set to happen in february, long after months after they were supposed to be back. but of course, safety is the primary concern. >> absolutely. while southern california researchers are working to feed astronauts on the space station by helping them grow their own food. >> reporter leticia juarez, from our sister station in los angeles, has a look at the future of food and liftoff. >> space. the final frontier for agriculture. >> it's very expensive to send food up to the astronauts, so ideally we want them to be able to grow some of their own food. >> as nasa plans missions to the moon and mars, scientists like doctor robert jinkerson, a chemical and environmental engineer at uc riverside, is researching how to grow plants and fungal based food using artificial photosynthesis. >> our work is focused on is how do we actually grow plants without light, and try to reduce and minimize the amount of light instead of sunlight?

>> jinkerson has managed to grow tomatoes using acetate, a carbon based alternative energy source. you might notice the plant's unusual small size. that's due to the work of doctor martha orozco cardenas, who runs the plant transformation research center at ucr. >> he was quite surprised about how small was the plant that i produced by genetically engineer her genetically engineered tomato is designed to produce fruit in small spaces, so it can be a food source for astronauts on the international space station. >> currently, the research is being evaluated at nasa's kennedy space center. the next phase in the research project will be taking seeds of tomato plants like these and sending them to space to see how they perform. >> astronauts are going to harvest the fruit and then the seeds, replant them and then grow another batch of tomatoes. and this will be the first seed to seed to seed experiment in space. >> but tomatoes aren't the only thing on the menu. jinkerson and his team have developed a

protein rich crop of mushrooms using the same technology. >> this is kind of probably one of the first applications for artificial photosynthesis. for food production is to grow mushrooms so we can feed the mushrooms with the acetate and then allow them to grow in space. >> the cosmic crops may 1st day provide astronauts the ability to extend their stay in space. in riverside, leticia juarez, abc seven news. >> well, coming up, the possible link between where you live and how your age. what researchers found about zip codes and dementia diagnoses and next campaign donations stolen in oakland. >> what changes

it was last time. in that case, it was muted. i didn't like it the last time, but it worked out fine. they're trying to change it. the truth is, they're trying to get out of it because she doesn't want a debate. >> and the debate in question is the only one that both of these campaigns have agreed to as of now. there is also a vice presidential debate scheduled for october at the white house. i'm brian abel reporting. >> and the presidential debate is scheduled for tuesday, september 10th, right here on abc seven. our coverage begins at 5:00 with a reason to cheer. >> today at the new york stock exchange. the dow closed at a new record high. it was up 65 points, ending the day at 41,240. the nasdaq dropped 152 points, and the s&p went down 17. our country's national parks are receiving a record setting gift. a $100 million donation is going to the nonprofit supporting the national park service. the organization's largest grant ever. the national

shown at upcoming public meetings as the authority gathers more public input and suggestions on how to make a majestic open space even more spectacular at coyote valley. drew tuma abc seven news. >> spectacular is the word. those are some incredible shots. well organizers are asking attendees at the upcoming open house to vote on the people's choice award for best overall photograph. i can't even begin to make a choice. >> absolutely. all right. well, we have a warm and sunny week ahead. see the temperatures where you live in sandhya. seven-day

it just off the coast. it struck around 5 a.m. cnn portugal was live on the air when it happened. you can react. although they didn't say anything, people throughout portugal felt it. even people in neighboring spain felt that earthquake. authorities have called off a search at a collapsed ice cave in iceland, where an american tourist was killed yesterday. another person, an american woman, was seriously injured. they were part of a group visiting the inside of the ice cave, where

the country's largest glacier is located. earlier reports of two missing tourists turned out to be wrong. the icelandic mountain guides association is asking for tighter regulations on ice cave tours during the summer, when melting ice makes visiting dangerous and a major landslide in alaska killed one person and injured at least three others, damaging homes and roads and forcing evacuations. >> the governor of alaska issued a disaster declaration in the meantime, much of the nation is dealing with extreme heat, even record breaking temperatures. abc news reporter melissa adan has the details. reporter evacuation orders are in place after a deadly landslide tore through ketchikan, alaska, sunday, killing at least one person and injuring three. >> this following heavy rainfall from over the weekend, we need to get out of here. dan multiple homes and roads are damaged while officials are concerned a second landslide could destroy more of the community. >> i'm really concerned for them because the weather hasn't stopped down there. it's still

raining and blowing. >> ketchikan got nearly three inches of rain over the weekend, which is about half their average monthly total. higher elevations reporting more. too much rain at once. after a drier period can cause a landslide. >> so we feel that we've done about everything we can to address the immediate needs of this incident. we are experiencing intermittent rain. it was also high winds yesterday. as long as that's not repeated and we can assure the site is stable, hopefully it won't get worse. >> hot weather is what is affecting people in other parts of the country. 40 million americans are under heat alerts from oklahoma to michigan. chicago students going back to school amid an excessive heat warning in the midwest. the district canceling outside recess and physical education classes for today and tomorrow. >> we won't have any outdoor recess. >> we've canceled all sports events, and of course, you know, depending on the time of the day, not to have our children in any hot rooms.

>> public schools in detroit are shortening their first days of school due to the heat. and out here on the west, the hot weather persists. this as new research from the medical journal jama shows that heat related deaths are on the rise. melissa oden abc news, los angeles. >> all right. and we are getting some heat here, too. >> we are. meteorologist sandhya patel is tracking that very closely for us. sandhya. >> yeah. dan and ama. you know, heat is the number one killer in the u.s. >> weather related. so definitely take it easy as we do have mild to moderate heat risk for tomorrow. live view right now from our o k camera. you will notice clear skies. and as we look at live doppler seven, the fog is sitting right off the coast and it's going to reestablish itself right along the coast. and around the bay tomorrow afternoon. a lot of sun with upper 90s to low 100 seconds inland 60s coast side. as we check out what's ahead for wednesday, those temperatures begin to back off, but still hot inland. thursday, you drop down to the low 90s and friday the temperatures continue to trend lower. as we look at the

accuweather seven day forecast in time for the holiday weekend. the temperatures will continue to come down, so if you don't like the hot weather, it's only one day of triple digit heat before you get a break from it. later on this week. and we're going to be starting off september on sunday with some mild weather. >> ama and dan wow, september already? thanks, sandhya. thank you very much. >> all right. let's talk about as the brandon aiyuk turns. >> what is soap opera on? know,n doing this story for about six months. dan, it's unbelievable. and if brandon aiyuk thinks he's as good as ceedee lamb of the cowboys, this is going to be a problem for everybody involved because ceedee just got paid big time today by dallas. plus, danny jansen making baseball history really, really unusual history for both the blue jays and

let's go! hustle! is getting started. well, we did that 30 years ago, when california first took on the tobacco industry. this is not just about access. it's about the message it sends... now smoking is down 60 percent. lung cancer 42 percent. a couple of our cities have already ended tobacco sales. a california without big tobacco isn't just possible, it's already happening. i'll say what city hall insiders won't.

we have a drug, homelessness, and economic recovery crisis, because the system that's supposed to fix things is the problem. record budgets. fewer officers. business killing bureaucracy. the insiders won't change a system built for their benefit. i'm daniel lurie and san francisco needs a mayor unafraid to take on the status quo, bring accountability, and stop the excuses.

unclear if trent williams or brandon aiyuk will actually be on the field for that game. both are in these contract talks that seem to be never ending, and we focused a lot on aiyuk because of all that he's posted on social media. but let's be clear, without trent williams, you can forget about a trip to the super bowl. you're not going. so you got to get his deal done. as for aiyuk, if i'm the niners, i tell him, look, we tried to get you the salary you want. we approved two trades that you then turned down. we've

gone as far as we are going. here's your options. play out the final year of your contract for 14 million. sign the four year extension we propose or sit out and get paid. nothing. adding to the drama. this man, ceedee lamb, just signed a four year, $136 million extension with the cowboys 34,000,100 mil guaranteed. former patriots coach bill belichick on the pat mcafee show today saying, you know, you can't make everybody happy. >> i can't control what another team paid somebody else or or didn't pay somebody else. that's really out of my control. the only thing i can tell you is here's what we can do. and i would try to structure the contracts on the team i was coaching. so that they were consistent. so you can come in to me and say, well, you know, bill's getting more than i am and i'm a lot better than he is then, then that creates a problem for me because, you know, you've made the decision on those numbers. so look, every player is going to come in and say, well, this is the highest paid guy. some of the teams getting it, you know we want that. well, you can't make everybody the highest paid guy based on contracts. you know, on

31 other teams in the league. it's impossible. >> now tomorrow at 1 p.m. is cut down time. nfl teams have to announce their 53 man roster and their practice squads. really stressful time for some players who are on the bubble, as well as coaches who are trying to figure out looking at other team's rosters who might be available after the cuts are made. >> yeah, there's always talk now. i mean, guys are always everywhere calling and, you know, they do that usually a week before the final preseason game. but you know, everyone tries to figure it out and want to know whether who you're keeping, who they can get, if they're going to be cut, who they can trade for. and but there's a lot of talk. nothing comes real until sometimes the morning of. >> and that will be tomorrow morning. so we'll see. college football starts for bay area schools this week san jose state starts off thursday against sac state. stanford opens year two with troy taylor on friday night at 730. on our sister network, espn. they'll be hosting tcu and former cal head coach sonny dikes. coach taylor knows do not expect perfection in week one. >> nervous? not really nervous. just knowing the first games,

you know you're going to have some. it's not going to be perfect for either team and just hoping you, you know, overcome the nerves quickly and settle in and play football. >> major league baseball has been around since 1903. and we saw something today that has never, ever happened in history. danny jansen played for two teams in the same game. how is that possible? he wasn't cloned. back on june 26, jansen was playing for the toronto blue jays. okay, that game against boston was suspended because of rain while he was at bat. well, then in july, jansen was traded from toronto to boston. so when that game resumed today, jansen was catching for the red sox while a toronto pinch hitter took his place at the plate. never seen it before? we may never see it again. sports on abc seven is sponsored by smart and final. >> when a friend of mine told me about this the other day, i didn't know the details and i thought he changed uniforms in the middle of a game. game? yeah, well, that almost happened with jose canseco and ruben

sierra. >> but real quick on isaac. you know, if he looks at ceedee lamb or he looks at justin jefferson and says, i'm just as good as these guys. here's the difference. those players are the number one option. they are the focal point of their respective teams offenses with brandon. he's a terrific player, no doubt about that. he may be as good, but he's we got christian mccaffrey. we got george kittle, we got deebo samuel, we got brock purdy. we've got two receivers that we drafted. so yeah if he was the sole focus sure then maybe you could command the top dollar. but that's he's one of many weapons. >> and as you pointed out in the break, you know there's risk of injury when you come in this late. >> exactly. yeah. it happens all the time. >> thanks, larry. yeah. >> all right. tonight on abc seven at eight, the bachelorette, followed by celebrity family feud at ten. then stay with us for abc seven news at 11. that'll do it for this edition of abc seven news. thanks for being here. i'm ama. >> and i'm dan ashley for sandhya patel, larry beil, all of us. we appreciate your time. have a great evening and we'll see you again tonight at 11.
