Sheryl Davis is accused of steering millions of dollars to Collective Impact, a San Francisco-based nonprofit she previously ran as executive director, according to a criminal complaint filed Monday by the San Francisco District Attorney's Office.

"Today's increase is significant, but it doesn't mean the labor market is back on track or growing robustly. The gains are highly concentrated in a few industries, not broad-based across the economy."

Eight individuals were arrested and 15 charged in a scheme to defraud Medicare of over $50 million by running sham hospice facilities across Southern California. Federal officials described the actions as brazen efforts to commit fraud, with many billed patients not being terminally ill.

"There are people who have come here after escaping violence and persecution and torture. These are communities that we have historically said, 'You are welcome here. We have the support for you. We're going to help you get established in our country.' And now, the federal government is abandoning them."

Davis allegedly directed more than $4.5 million to Collective Impact from the Dream Keeper Initiative, a city program that distributes arts and culture grants to the Black community, the DA said.

In effect, the Trump administration is attempting to roll back civil rights enforcement in housing at the federal level, and pressure states to weaken their own protections as well. That's not just bad policy, it's unlawful.

The group practiced a conversation with faux voters, with some new members still getting comfortable reading from the script. They were soon dispatched in pairs to the Sunset District to find actual voters.

The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office must comply with subpoenas issued by the county's civilian oversight board as part of a whistleblower investigation into alleged misconduct, a state appeals court ruled Thursday.
