you spoke with a professor from san jose state university. what's the professor saying? rey, professor shawn fletcher at san jose state is saying the bill is kind of similar to what we've seen with regulation for other industries. he commented on the regulation we saw with the tobacco industry decades ago, how this is something that we're noticing increase and it's falling into similar patterns of public outcry from parents and families and some resistance from the companies that are involved, the companies who don't want to be regulated. many people don't realize social media companies aren't regulated in the same way that, say, our tv broadcasts or radio broadcasts are. and there's some big questions at the state and at the national level of whether it should continue in that fashion or whether there should be more regulations. and so the question is will california be able to pioneer where that ground is, how far the regulations should go. >> we'll have to wait and see, and i know you'll stay on top of it. the full story at 6:00, yes? >> yes. >> thanks for the preview.

here with more insight on the impact, emmanuel sequeira who is a professor at san jose state. could you give us a basic explanation as to what trouble first republic is facing right now? how intense is it, and how did they get there in the first place? >> so what i can say is that first republic bank similarly faced some of these issues that silicon valley bank faced just a month ago. first republic bank focused on some high wealth clients and they focused on giving mortgages to these wealthy clients at pretty effective rates last year, however they did not predict that the fed would increase interest rates so drastically, another centrist writes almost mortgages are worth less than before. depositors pulled their funds out of the bank in the past month since the failure of silicon valley bank. that situation can go on forever, so that is the situation that first republic bank is faced with today. >> some analysts say the collapse of first republic is imminent. you agree with that assessment? >> while i can't predict the future, what i can say is that first republic is in fina

san jose state university is among the top 10 most affordable colleges in a major us city. r there are people on campus who dispute that report. the survey by credit summit, says san jose state university students pay an average of $800 a month for housing, utilities and wifi close to $3800 for monthly costs. but san jose states has a sociology professor says. it does not add up when the least expensive on campus apartment costs a student more than $1000 a month. a new study shows americans now hold $1.7 trillion in student loan debt, and nearly two thirds of that money is owed by women, according to the american association of university women . women with bachelor's degrees graduate with an average of $2700 more in student loan debt than male students. and that gap increases over time as women take two years longer, on average to pay off their debt, with the interest, adding up all the while. let's look at your dollars and cents. all right, pam. thank you, tommy 7 49. would you believe today is golden anniversary of the first mobile phone call 50 years ago today martin coo
