Newsom vetoed a data center water bill last year. Will he sign it this time?
An aerial view of the Digital Realty SFO12 Data Center in the Rincon Hill neighborhood of San Francisco, on Dec. 16, 2025.(Stephen Lam / San Francisco Chronicle via AP)As fights about data centers erupt nationwide, California lawmakers have approved a pair of bills to make data center developers disclose how much water they really use.The bills are a new test of whether California will set limits on an industry that’s becoming a flashpoint over water, electricity and the environmental consequences of artificial intelligence.Lawmakers on Monday cleared Assembly Bill 2469 by Assemblymember Diane Papan, a Democrat from San Mateo. The bill bars local governments from approving new or expanded data centers unless the developer discloses its water plans and covers the full cost of any new water pipes, treatment or storage for the facility. This bill will now join Papan’s Assembly Bill 2619 on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk.California senators last week, in a decisive 30 to 9 vote, approved the mea

Do later school start times help California students? Here’s what a new study says
(Jane Meredith Adams / EdSource)California’s mandate requiring later start times for middle and high schools is already yielding results, with students sleeping more, reporting better mental health and scoring higher math and English scores, according to a new study.The new working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research examines the effects of Senate Bill 328, California’s statewide mandate for later school start times. The law, which went into effect in 2022, requires most middle schools to start no earlier than 8 a.m. and high schools no earlier than 8:30 a.m.The study found that the new law increased the share of students sleeping at least eight hours per night by 13%, meeting the minimum recommended for adolescents by health experts. The largest jump was among boys.The study shows that “rest and sleep are incredibly important in the function of schools,” said Osea Giuntella, an author of the report. Although the short-term increase in sleep is moderate, it has led to s

For Central Valley farmworkers, a court order brought calm. Now it's on hold — and LA is watching
Farmworkers in California's Central Valley in April 2025, the month an order from a federal judge put new restrictions on immigration officials arresting people without warrants. While that order is now on hold, a similar case is under consideration in L.A.(Frederic J. Brown / AFP via Getty Images)A federal judge in Los Angeles is weighing whether to place new restrictions on immigration agents arresting people without warrants — a decision that could shape enforcement across Southern California. That decision, expected any day, echoes a fight already playing out in the Central Valley, where farmworkers had won a court order that shielded them for more than a year.On Aug. 24, a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel put that Central Valley injunction on hold.That order had blocked Border Patrol from the race-based stops and warrantless arrests that swept through Bakersfield in January 2025, when agents fanned out through farm towns as part of "Operation Return to Sender."For Rosa, a 3

California politicians promised white gold in ‘Lithium Valley.’ But are those dreams fading?
The Salton Sea at Bombay Beach on Feb. 4, 2023. (Ariana Drehsler / CalMatters)Three years after Gov. Gavin Newsom proclaimed Imperial County's "Lithium Valley" to be a game-changer for California's economy and alternative energy transition, little has changed.The southern end of the Salton Sea contains rich sources of lithium, a mineral used for electric car batteries, cellphones and other electronics. A few years ago California politicians raved about prospects for extracting the critical mineral from desert aquifers.But lithium resources remain untapped, as plans to mine them falter amid legal challenges and funding problems.The Hell's Kitchen project by Controlled Thermal Resources has been delayed by lawsuits arguing that the company neglected to address its environmental impacts. Last month an appeals court sent the environmental review back to Imperial County to correct deficiencies regarding water and air quality effects.The appellate decision validates residents’ questions abou

Trump administration ratchets up its fight to get more oil flowing from California

Hong / Ap Photo)The Trump administration is ratcheting up its fight to get more crude flowing through California and reverse the state’s efforts to move away from fossil fuels.Its latest salvo is a federal review of California’s coastal management program, which is run largely by a state commission that has had a powerful role for decades in shaping development along the coast. Environmental advocates fear federal officials could use the review to strip the California Coastal Commission of its ability to have a say in projects involving federal agencies that affect the state’s rugged coastal bluffs, pristine beaches and world-class surfing spots.The administration, citing a need for energy security and job creation, has already announced plans for new offshore oil leases in California as well as Florida, where the federal government has not allowed dril

Firefighters assess the remains of the Lineage warehouse that burned for a week and sent smoke into nearby communities.(Andrew Lopez / Boyle Heights Beat)Topline:Final cleanup of the burned Boyle Heights warehouse was completed Saturday, according to Lineage Logistics and air quality officials.Why it matters: On Aug. 29, Lineage removed an estimated 88 million pounds of rotting food waste from the site.

The Bee Museum is inside the vintage store, Hive & Hanger, in Burbank.(James Bartlett / LAist)A sign on the front door says “Beekeeper owned,” and inside the Hive & Hanger store in Burbank, the layout is a mix of vintage clothes, antique jewelry and something rather unexpected: a pop-up Bee Museum.The owner is Carrie Diazzz, a vintage maven turned urban apiarist. She admits with a smile two extra Zs at the end of her real last name are a homage to her beloved bees.When the store opened in 2020, it was originally all-vintage. “I was not looking to change careers,” she said, but after taking a two-hour beekeeping experience course, she was hooked.Hive & Hangar in Burbank doubles as a bee museum.(James Bartlett / LAist)“I don’t like dirt, and I don't like bugs.

Your Los Angeles Restaurant Guide: Labor Day Weekend Edition
La Jollita. | La Jollita Every Friday, our editors compile a trusty list of recommendations to answer the most pressing of questions: “Where should I eat?“ Here are four places to check out this weekend in Los Angeles. And if you need some ideas on where to drink, here’s our list of the hottest places to get cocktails in town. For a surprisingly excellent marisquería in the heart of a tony beach town: La Jollita in La Jolla, California It would be easy to cock an eyebrow at La Jollita, the raucous marisquería on the main strip of touristy La Jolla, and move on. It is, after all, a sort of expensive mariscos joint in a fancy beach town, occupying prime real estate a block from the ocean — you can occasionally hear the local sea lions barking, even over the restaurant’s energetic soundtrack. But everything is so much better than the location would suggest, starting with Mazatlán-style shrimp cocktail, something of a level-setter at marisquerías, which arrives in a little glass bowl full

Best Los Angeles Restaurants for Takeout and Delivery, According to Eater Editors
Top Restaurant's fried chicken. | Wonho Frank Lee Over the past few years, almost every restaurant has had to figure out a way to offer some version of takeout and delivery food, but that does not mean that everyone has mastered the craft. There are definitely certain kinds of food that can work well after a few minutes of sitting in to-go containers, like Filipino rice dishes or Thai curries, and sometimes restaurants do an exemplary job of preparing foods so they can be thoughtfully reheated without changing the integrity of the flavors — or eaten on the spot inside a car. It’s no easy task to sort through the middling takeout options, though, so best to leave it to the professionals. Here are the best restaurants that have perfected takeout and delivery in Los Angeles. New this update: This update adds a handful of picks to the list, including Valley vegan restaurant El Cocinero, Caribbean restaurant Bridgetown Roti, and Persian restaurants Kuku Cafe and Taste of Tehran.

After Years of Loss, Barman Matthew Biancaniello Returns With a New Orleans Oyster Pop-Up in Chinatown
Matthew Biancaniello’s Shochu oyster for the Evangeline Swamp Room pop-up. | Bradley Tuck Los Angeles’s celebrated barman Matthew Biancaniello is back. This month, he’ll get together with the Evangeline Swamp Room on September 17, 2026, to host an oyster and cocktail pop-up that nods to the rich foodways of New Orleans. The collaboration between one of Los Angeles’s most innovative bartenders and Chinatown’s popular New Orleans–themed bar represents a comeback of sorts for Biancaniello. As one of Los Angeles’s longtime cocktail mavericks, Biancaniello was instrumental in transforming the bars at Library Bar from 2008 to 2012, and at the Hollywood Roosevelt, where he evolved the hotel bar into an ingredient-driven cocktail destination. He published Eat Your Drink in 2016 and ran crowd-pleasing pop-ups throughout the region where he experimented with unconventional preparation techniques, ingredients from his own garden, tinctures, and drew a following that regularly sold out his events.

The Chef Behind Michelin-Starred Lielle Opens a New French-California Bistro
Prawn cocktail at Marée. | Andrea Jernmark Marcus Jernmark, the chef behind Michelin-starred Lielle, will soon debut his next Los Angeles restaurant — a more casual California-inflected bistro and wine bar. Marée, located above Lielle, will open on September 9 with a menu rooted in French cooking and California’s seasonality. Marée is the largest and most casual restaurant yet for Jernmark, seating 70 in its spacious dining room. “It feels such a luxury to be able to do something for the first time,” Jernmark says. “I’m 44; I’ve been working in restaurants since I was 14.” He points to San Francisco’s Zuni Cafe as inspiration for the restaurant, citing its timeliness and consistency. “We’re creating food that we want to have with us for a long time, food that is not carved out of concepts, just stuff that we like to eat,” Jernmark says. While the French influence feels clear at Marée, Jernmark worked to strike a balance between the cuisine’s richness and the California influences on t

Kali Steak Is a Los Angeles Steakhouse Worthy of Its Michelin Star
Kali. | Wonho Frank Lee Chef Kevin Meehan’s perspective shifted when he realized that the California-inspired, produce-oriented tasting menu he had served for nearly a decade at his Melrose Avenue restaurant Kali had started to feel tired. So in July 2025, inspired by the timelessness of Musso & Frank, Meehan turned his menu into an ode to midcentury steakhouses. Though that brought a wide martini menu, wood-grilled chops, and reliable side dishes, Meehan thought the menu change would lead to the loss of the restaurant’s Michelin star. It thankfully didn’t, even as Kali has become more of a regular neighborhood hangout with a bustling bar that projects every Dodger game on the wall and a dimly lit dining room gathering meat-seeking Angelenos. It’s a formula that should outlast any dining trends for the foreseeable future. On the menu Inspired by Koreatown, Meehan seasoned his beef tartare with the sweet-salty flavors of yukhoe, though making it a little saucier than the traditional Kor

Where to Get Rosh Hashanah Dinner in Los Angeles, 2026
Rosh Hashanah spread at Mish. | Mish Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year, begins in the evening on Friday, September 11, and is celebrated through Sunday, September 13. The holiday kicks off what is known as the 10 days of awe, a period of reflection and, for some, repentance in the Jewish religion. Rosh Hashanah is the lighter side of the high holidays, with observers encouraged to eat challah or apples dipped in golden honey to usher in a sweet new year. In Los Angeles, members of the Jewish diasporic community have the opportunity to order complete takeout meals (or complementary sides to home-cooked dishes) to assemble and eat at home, and this year, there are some dine-in options to explore as well. Read on for where to order Rosh Hashanah dinner in Los Angeles in 2026. Mish Eric Greenspan’s new modern Jewish deli has a full slate of Rosh Hashanah specials to fete the holiday.

The Saddest August Restaurant Closures to Know in Los Angeles
Chicken sandwich from Electric Owl. | Farley Elliott Los Angeles’s restaurants continue to face difficult headwinds, starting in 2020 with the onset of the global pandemic and exacerbated by the Hollywood labor strikes in 2023, which led to an industry-wide slowdown that continued into 2026. From the lingering effects of the Hollywood strikes to rising costs (labor, rent, ingredients, etc.), many factors continue to strain restaurant owners operating on razor-thin margins. Los Angeles restaurants also continue to struggle with the impact of the 2025 fires, including slow business and devastating property loss, as well as the ongoing effects of ICE enforcement.

Lincoln Heights’ 100-Year-Old Bar Grows Up
I feel like every Angeleno has a story about the Airliner — mostly involving getting drunk or dropping acid at parties thrown at the historic Lincoln Heights bar. But that reputation has shifted since partners chef Vinh Nguyen and Gary Wang resurrected the bar in 2023. The interior space got a facelift with a newly varnished bar counter, reupholstered booth seating, and swanky wallpaper reminiscent of accordion fans. The menu, too, has been reimagined — changing the Airliner from a casual dive often used for pregaming concerts to a serious dining destination with an inviting happy hour menu, intentional cocktails, and natural wine. Although I’m nostalgic for the former glory days of the Airliner, this new, grown-up iteration feels even better. What to order For the table, an order of whipped ricotta drizzled with chile crisp combines the creaminess of fluffy cheese, ample amounts of garlic, and roasted chiles to make something delightful to heap onto nutty tostada discs. Mentaiko spag

America Has Lost the Plot on Diversity
As students return to colleges across the country, two are missing at Brown University: Ella Cook and MukhammadAziz Umurzokov.

Where the Food Justice Movement Went Wrong
I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin. The nearest grocery store, about a 10-minute drive from our house, closed in 2016. The store was a victim of asset consolidation during the merger of two area chains, Mega Foods and Gordy’s. After the closure, my dad declared half-jokingly that he now lived in a food desert; a few years later, he admitted that he’d basically been living off cans of Dinty Moore Beef Stew from the Chevron station a block away.
