left off this list. >> this is a step, but survivors tell me it's not far enough. the list oakland put out today is much shorter than reports we've seen in recent months. many of the 45 priests credibly accused of child sexual abuse have already appeared on abc 7 or in other published reports, but five are new names that don't appear in any public database. they're part of what the oakland diocese says is a new era of transparency. >> our two most important priorities, keep our children safe, healing and justice for our survivors. >> but attorneys and advocates for survivors say the list is too short. in october attorney jeff anderson released a report that found 95 priests accused of sexual misconduct in the oakland diocese. >> and how many more files do they have of how many offenders are they now keeping secret? >> the oakland diocese now says anderson counted priests who lived here for a time but offended in other parts of the state, and that the publication of the list today is just a start.

>> we're having an independent reviewer come in and look at our files, look at our processes. that report, that independent report should be done in late spring. >> if you're not going to be fully transapparent, then you're not transparent. >> joey piscatelli heads the survivors network of those who survived abuse by priest. he says the short list is deceitful. it does include the priest who abused piscatelli when he was a boy. i confronted father steve whelan in 2005. >> it's a spurious argument, accusation. i am not in any -- i have not been suspended or anything. >> so there is no truth to the accusation? >> none at all from my point of view. >> but piscatelli sued the church and a jury awarded him $650,000. now he says the oakland diocese still hasn't come clean. >> they said they have nothing to hide and they're hiding a lot. they're hiding a lot of names of a lot of accused ensued and convicted abusers that just

aren't on the list. >> the pope's summit on preventing clergy sexual abuse begins thursday. over the weekend, the vatican announced the highest ranking american church official to be reprimanded for sexual abuse, former cardinal and archbishop of washington, d.c. theodore mccarrick is being defrocked for sexual abusing minors and adult seminarians. >> both abuse and this cover-up can no long better tolerated. >> the only diocese or archdiocese in the bay area not to publish names of priests who abused children is san francisco. a spokesman there told me a review was under way, and they have made no decision yet if names of priests will be published. so we'll see. >> all right, thank you, dan. well, new at 6:00, it's official tonight. california has filed a lawsuit challenging president trump's national emergency declaration. 15 other states joined in today's suit. it claims there is no emergency at the border, and that the president is circumventing congress. mr. trump's declaration made last week allows him to use

altered. >> with zero visibility and high heat, it takes a little extra effort to find your way to the seat of the fire. in addition to that, there was a lot of furniture and stuff that was impeding progress. so initially, we had to breach a wall to get first waterton fire. >> we turned the tv off for a second. we heard a very faint fire alarm. and so we stayed quiet for a minute. and all of the sudden we hear sirens in the background. like fire sirens. i said yeah, i don't like that combo. we should probably go. so we run out the doors. and by that time, when we're running out, there was glass coming down from that top window. >> around ten minutes ago, firefighters were on the roof of the burned building and assessing the properties right next to it. we're currently one block south of the panhandle section of golden gate park. the red cross has arrived to help the displaced residents. as you can see to my right, there is several wait to see if they're able to go back in their property and somehow get some of

got there, and fully involved. >> fremont firefighters continue to check for a second fire to break out using a thermal imaging camera. tesla batteries have a history of re-igniting hours and even days later. first responders have worked out a tactic with tesla to pour thousands of gallons of water on them to address this issue. tesla addressed a statement to abc 7 news that the damage sustained by the vehicle is indicative of a very high speed collision, which can result in a fire in any type of car, not just electric vehicles. we understand the drivers sustained only minor injuries. we are glad that he is safe. the model x is registered to brian morton. there is a tesla equipment mintenance technicnat namen a liedin ve tldonrm saightncluding t materials unit responded to the automaker's plant when an outdoor fire broke out involving battery components being disassembled for recycling. >> once the supervisors arrived, they were able to brief us on

what was stored there, the quantity and contents, and were able to provide bins for us to fill with water so we could mitigate the battery hazard. >> firefighters say from experience, the best way to put out these battery fires is with 3,000 gallons of water. in fremont, david louie, abc 7 news. >> now here at abc 7 news, we talk about building a better bay area. we're focused on the big issues that include housing and education. >> which is why the looming strike by oakland teachers is such a big deal. in oakland school district, teacher salaries range from $46,000 to 84,000. >> experienced teachers earn around $64,000. according to state data, that's the lowest of all alameda county school districts, a and the third lowest in the bay area. >> the median rent in oakland the more than $3,000, according to zillow, adding up to close to $38,000 a year. that's 81% of a starting teac r teacher's salary. for even the most well paid

table with us. it's the same question. we all want to avoid a strike. the last thing we want in oakland is to have a strike. >> oakland's mayor libby schaaf told reporters she recently spoke to governor newsom who reassured her more money will be allocated for education in his upcoming proposal which will give the district more funding. >> but the governor's budget definitely represented an increase and possibly more resources than people were aware of initially. >> the independent fact-finding report recommends a 3% raise for 2017-2018, a 3% raise for this year, and an economic reopen for 2019-2020. meaning the amount would be negotiated based on economic growth. while everyone acknowledges a strike would be disruptive, this principal says they will try to stick with the current curriculum. >> we plan to make sure that we use the instrtional time wisely by making sure that children are actually reading, writing and learning.

>> courtney riley has a senior in high school. >> i'm pretty sure he is not crossing the picket line, but he will have to do something related to his growth. and his education. >> now all parents should know that the city will have 15 rec centers open for parents to bring their children. they will be open from 8:00 in the morning to 3:00 in the afternoon. after 3:00, 3:00, they will have their normal after care program. i'm live in oakland, lyanne melendez, abc 7 news. >> lyanne, thanks very much. keep in mind teacher strikes are rare, but we've seen some national examples lately. today all three west virginia education unions have called for a work stoppage to begin tomorrow. denver teachers went on strike for three days last week after reaching what's been called a historic deal on thursday, which includes a higher starting salary and pay raises, including raises for cost of living. it was denver's first teacher's strike in a quarter century.

and last month, 10s of thousands of los angeles teachers went on strike for six days. they demand higher pay, smaller class sizes and an increase in support staff. it wut was their first work stoppage in 30 years. >> last week we spent a week digging into the issues that teachers face all over the bay area. well looked at what it takes for them to find housing. some are even living with their parents. al of our stories are in one place, abc7news.com. search for building a better bay area teachers to find it all. and we welcome your story ideas or suggestions, even your questions. use the #better bay area on twitter, facebook and instagram to share your thoughts. together we with cork on building a better bay area. giants manager bruce bochy announced he is retiring after this season. just a few hours ago on knbr radio, he said he wanted to let the team know now so they don't face questions later during the season. >> try to keep from having to deal with distractions, and i

we're tahoe regulars. and we knew at the end of this long slow journey, there would be a big payoff. >> this is highway 50 right above pollock pines. >> what started as an adventure turned into an odyssey, and then a bit of an ordeal. emboldened by the fact that highway 50 was open when interstate 80 was not, we left the east bay fully aware we were in for a long ride, and well prepared for what we expected would take maybe seven or eight hours. we had a full tank of gas, plenty of food and warm clothing, and the hope that the payoff would be worth the struggle. and though it took nearly twice the time we thought, what we found on the other side made it all worth it. sights like these in the high sierra have been hard to come by in recent years from the air, it seems hardly a peak is left uncovered. a thick blanket of snow that extends for miles in every direction. even the locals know that all of this is something to be celebrated. >> my wife and i were just at
