Here’s a quick digest:
- Gov. Gavin Newsom was fined $31,500 by the Fair Political Practices Commission for failing to report millions in charitable donations on time.

- Former Democratic state Sen. Richard Pan is framing newly independent Rep. Kevin Kiley as a Trump loyalist in the 6th Congressional District race, pointing to Kiley’s past Trump endorsement and GOP voting record. Kiley left the Republican Party earlier this year, citing frustration with partisanship.
- Sacramento Regional Transit is changing the digital warning bells on its new S700 light rail vehicles after complaints from residents and businesses along the Gold Line. The sound will now play only from the operating and trailing cabs, with speaker modifications expected between late July and mid-August.
