Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests

Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.

The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.

No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."

The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

Quick Glance: Biden Plans Expansion of Two National Monuments in California

President Biden plans to expand the boundaries of two national monuments in California in the coming weeks to bolster his conservation record and increase access to nature for disadvantaged communities.

Biden is expected to sign proclamations expanding the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument and the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, both originally designated by President Barack Obama.

Conservation groups, Native American tribes, and California lawmakers have all called on Biden to expand these monuments.

Biden has set an ambitious goal of conserving 30 percent of America’s lands and waters by 2030, and has already designated five new national monuments, many of which are on lands that area tribes consider sacred.

Quick Glance: California's Lack of Oversight on Billions for Homelessness Programs: State Audit

A new state audit report criticizes California for failing to track the effectiveness of its billion-dollar spending on homelessness programs.

California is faulted for not taking enough measures to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of its homelessness programs.

The audit revealed that two programs, including the Homekey program by the Department of Housing and Community Development and the CalWORKs Housing Support Program by the California Department of Social Services, appear cost-effective.

The audit calls for improved data collection and public reporting of the costs and outcomes of homelessness programs in California.
