SF immigration advocates prepare for Trump administration
San Francisco’s status as a sanctuary city places it in the bullseye for an attack from an emboldened Donald Trump administration. This time, however, lawyers and community advocates have seen the playbook, and have already begun steeling themselves. “This is the second time around … and he’s got more ideas, apparently,” said Bill Hing, the founding director of the University of San Francisco’s Immigration and Deportation Defense Clinic. “So we have got to prepare for the worst.”Changes to the immigration systemHing predicts immigration advocates will face both ideological and procedural challenges. Take domestic violence cases, for example. People escaping domestic violence currently make up the majority of cases successfully handled by Hing’s clinic. These cases will soon become more difficult to win, as Hing expects the federal attorney general appointed by Trump will hold a narrower definition of what justifies political asylum that […]
Vietnam Airlines to request bids for 50 narrowbody jets next year
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Reuters) -Vietnam Airlines will issue requests for proposals to aircraft manufacturers next year to purchase 50 narrowbody jets, its CEO said on Wednesday. The carrier last year signed a provisional deal with Boeing for 50 737 MAX planes that has yet to be finalised. "In Vietnam we have to go through the bidding process, we have to open to others... The door is still open for everyone," Vietnam Airlines CEO Le Hong Ha told Reuters on the sidelines of an Association of Asia-Pacific Airlines event in Brunei. "Boeing is one option, they have a very good offer for us." Airbus and Boeing are the main global manufacturers of single-aisle aircraft, with Airbus' A320neo family competing against the 737 MAX, though Chinese planemaker COMAC is trying to make inroads with its C919. Vietnam Airlines' current narrowbody fleet consists […]

BlackRock Takes Aim at Money Market ETFs
BlackRock Inc. is launching two money market ETFs, tapping into the $6.6 trillion industry that has swelled amid high-interest rates, though the timing may prove challenging as the Federal Reserve begins to ease policy. The world’s largest asset manager is seeking approval for the iShares Government Money Market ETF and iShares Prime Money Market ETF, according to regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The proposed ETF would offer investors the ability to trade throughout the day, unlike traditional money market funds. However, they won’t maintain the stable $1 net asset value that conventional money market funds provide. The launch timing could prove crucial for the fund’s success, according to Aniket Ullal, head of ETF research at CFRA. He notes that two years ago would have been ideal for such products, when rising rates were driving investors towards money […]
Shell wins appeal against landmark ruling to cut emissions
STORY: Shell has won an appeal against a landmark climate order for it to cut greenhouse gas emissions. The appeals court in The Hague dismissed the 2021 ruling that Shell must cut its absolute carbon emissions by 45% by 2030, relative to 2019 levels. That included emissions caused by the use of its products. The case had been brought Friends of the Earth Netherlands, known as Milieudefensie. But presiding judge Carla Joustra said Shell was already on its way to meet required targets for its own emissions. "Shell has set a specific reduction target for scope 1 and 2 that means its scope 1 and 2 emissions will be reduced by 50% by 2030 compared to 2016. Furthermore, it follows from the documents provided by Shell that it had already achieved a 31% reduction by 2023. So Shell is already […]
