EDUCATION NEWS
- ➤ Dr. Noor Nazir, a pregnant postdoctoral researcher at UC Davis who was terminated in April, now faces forced departure by May 18 while battling a high-risk twin pregnancy (with complications including anemia, thalassemia, and infections) and lacking income and health insurance.

GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ On Tuesday, the Davis City Council decided to have city commissions review the possibility of amending Measure J/R/D’s exceptions — a move aimed at clarifying local policy. This decision sets the stage for further discussion on how the measure may change. The Davis Enterprise
- ➤ The Davis City Council agreed to send Measure J/R/D amendment proposals to city commissions for review and to delay any ballot vote until 2026 or later—since a November 2025 vote is too costly and rushed. Council members stressed that keeping housing projects separate from policy changes will help the city plan a long-term housing strategy. Davis Vanguard
