baca: senate bill 123 was passed. it basically ended coal power in nevada, and it mandated that there would be no more power plants and that the existing power plants had to be sunsetted. atkinson: ok, we are adjourned. raborn: right around that same time was, you know, the recession. woman: the stock market is now down 21%. man: 'cause we're now down 43%. man: the dow traders are standing there watching in amazement, and i don't blame 'em. raborn: in d.c., senator and his leadership staff and congress worked to pass the american reinvestment and recovery act. reid: what we're trying to do is stop a depression. that's why president obama says that this bill is so important to the american people. it's not only important for the short term to create millions of jobs, but it'll also do things for the long-term, like start doing something about our energy grid. if we can produce renewable energy and take it someplace, it creates thousands of jobs in nevada, and that's what this legislation is all about. raborn: there was

baca: it's one of the weirdest acronyms, but i love snplma, yeah. ensign: this bill fixes the faulty land exchange process. lopez: john ensign was the sponsor of snplma at the time, and senator reid and senator bryan were the senate champions for getting that legislation through. reid: we'll change the way we do things in the state of nevada regarding land. anderson: snplma, as it's lovingly referred to, was the seminal piece of legislation that created the land sale paradigm for the las vegas valley. lopez: the concept was instead of exchanging land, just auction public land to the highest bidder. that way, you bring market forces, and you just put it out in the open and you auction land. man: open this bid at 250,000. open this bid at 11 million. reid: have a public auction and none of this trading business. man: now 60... number 179 high bidder. baca: it creates a level playing field for everybody. man: he says he's out. 14,200,000. close the bid here at $14,200,000. reid: the money that came from the land would go back into family sensitive thin

[poignant music plays] [slide projector clicks] baca: it's interesting. in nevada, where we have these incredible wilderness areas, we have these beautiful night skies, there are so many assets. however, we had no national parks. so few places were really being celebrated for the incredible beauty that they had. christensen: when reid got into congress, he wanted to change that. he wanted to put nevada on the map in a different way. reid: i wanted to do something about wilderness. because nevada was growing so fast, i knew people unintentionally would ruin the environment. i had a press secretary. i'd been out looking around rural nevada, and she called me. she said, "senator, i'm in ely. these people up here think you should forget about this wilderness thing and go for a national park." chisholm: before harry reid was elected to congress, if you were an environmentalist in nevada, you didn't have a friend in congress. in fact, you had people who were working against you. laxalt: the values i have now are very much the values of having been raised in an

. $20,000 in funding provided new bacas anmore forne and a me to v place for our kids to play, on hopefully well-manicured fields, so they can grow their love of baseball, and this grant helped our program grow. liz: the north oakland, south oakland little league says they will be able to host more games because of the funding. let's take a look outside. lisa: the camera atop ballmer peak, we are looking at the fog in concord, 51 degrees with a south wind at 22. you see that poll moving about. say goodbye to the 81 degrees temperature yesterday. maybe 70 yesterday -- today, more likely 60's. liz: thank you, lisa. it was not quite the big melt the forecast had predicted. portions of yosemite national park will reopen. also ahead, pg&e is planning to bury over 10,000 miles of power lines, all in the name of safety. why one neighborhood in the oakland hills has been left out for likes or followers. their path isn't for the casually curious. and that's what makes it matter the most when they find it. the exact thing that can change the world. some say it's what they were born to do... it's what

propaganda and state tv one would have you believe that this is a pivotal moment if indeed russia captures bacaood , but the ukrainians have, you know, downplayed that victory possible victory. um they know that there are other places on the front line to concentrate on . um there are other larger ukrainian settlements and military installations not far away, so but you know, i also have to remind people, especially on this orthodox easter sunday that there are significant losses on the ukrainian side in that up head. i said the ukrainian soul is bleeding like never before, but they're incredible. they're showing incredible resilience. for example, freddie just quickly and 2014 when i was with the osc and ukraine. the ukrainian forces held out for about 260 days that did not seek international airport far less prepared than they are now. so that shows you something about their resilience. my goodness, and so is it. the case that you know the u. s and allies or trying to urge president zelensky, perhaps to not put as many resources uh, you know, on on back mood, or, you know almost surrender. i

of the school year, joining us now the kesha young, the founder and ceo of oakland reach, and megan baca lupe, the executive director of california parent power to talk about what could happen. also mentioned you are both oakland ear's and oh, usd parents elementary and middle school. all right, let's talk about the fact you say you support the teachers, but don't want them to strike lakisha. why do you want them need them to stay in the classroom? well it's no surprise. our kids are failing. you know, less than 20% of black and brown kids in oakland or reading on grade level less than 50% of all kids in oakland or even a great level. let's not even talk about math. okay and we just went through this horrible health crisis, the worst health crisis of our lifetime. we're in the second year of recovery, and we need our babies in school. we need them learning. we need to get them back on track. so that is a huge reason. you know, which is pretty obvious of why we do not want their learning disrupted on any day, but especially at the end of the year when we're trying to wrap up the school ye
