♪ >> AND BY VIEWERS LIKE YOU.

THANK YOU.

♪ >> TONIGHT, PRESIDENT TRUMP IS SENDING ADDITIONAL TROOPS TO LOS ANGELES AS PROTESTS AGAINST IMMIGRATION RAIDS CONTINUE.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

THE PRESIDENT HAS ALREADY DEPLOYED HUNDREDS OF NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS WITHOUT CALIFORNIA'S REQUEST OR CONSENT.

NOW, THE STATE IS SUING THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.

MORE ON THAT IN A MINUTE.

FIRST, MICHAEL HAS THE LATEST FROM LOS ANGELES.

>> Reporter: PROTESTS ROCK THE LOS ANGELES AREA OVER THE WEEKEND IN RESPONSE TO THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN.

DOZENS OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ARRESTED AS LAW ENFORCEMENT SAYS THE PROTESTS HAVE TURNED VIOLENT.

VEHICLES WERE SET ON FIRE AND LAW ENFORCEMENT USED FLASH BANGS AND TEAR GRASS -- TEAR GAS TO BREAK UP THE CROWDS.

>> LAST NIGHT WAS ONE OF THE MOST VOLATILE IN THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES.

>> Reporter: PRESIDENT TRUMP DEPLOYED HUNDREDS OF NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS WHICH HE SAID WAS TO PROTECT PERSONNEL AND PROPERTY DESPITE NO CALLS FROM GOVERNOR NEWSOM IN CALIFORNIA AND MAYOR BASS.

>> WHAT WAS THE REASON THE PRESIDENT HAD TO TAKE POWER FROM THE GOVERNOR AND FEDERALIZE THE NATIONAL GUARD?

>> Reporter: AUTHORITIES HAVE DECLARED THE AREA AND UNLAWFUL ASSEMBLY AREA.

>> PEOPLE WHO ARE CAUSING THE PROBLEM ARE PROFESSIONAL AGITATORS, INSURRECTIONISTS, THEY ARE BAD PEOPLE.

THEY SHOULD BE IN JAIL.

>> Reporter: THE NATIONAL GUARD IS STAGING IN THREE LOCATIONS ACROSS LA INCLUDING THE METROPOLITAN DETENTION CENTER WHERE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN MAXINE WATERS WAS DENIED ENTRY ON SUNDAY.

>> WE ARE NOT LETTING ANYONE INSIDE THE DOOR.

SO, I TAKE THAT AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK WITH ANYBODY.

>> Reporter: IN LOS ANGELES, MICHAEL YOSHIDA, KPBS NEWS.

>>> THE DECISION TO FEDERALIZE CALIFORNIA NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS IS ILLEGAL.

KPBS REPORTER JOHN CARROLL HAS MORE ON HOW SHE AG ROB BANTA WILL RESPOND.

>> Reporter: MONTA PULLED NO PUNCHES IN A STATEWIDE ZONE NEWS CONFERENCE TODAY.

HE SAYS, TRUMPS CHOICE TO INSERT TROOPS INTO THE VOLATILE SITUATION IN LA WAS NOT ONLY ILLEGAL BUT ALSO COMPLETELY UNNEEDED.

2000 TROOPS HAVE NOW BEEN CALLED UP.

THE STATE IS NOW SUING THE ADMINISTRATION, ASKING A JUDGE TO SET ASIDE TRUMP'S ORDER.

>> SENDING THEM IN ONLY ESCALATED THE SITUATION AND CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEVELOPMENTS WE SAW OVERNIGHT.

>> Reporter: THERE IS A HISTORY OF FEDERAL MOBILIZATION OF THE NATIONAL GUARD.

SINCE WORLD WAR II, THEY HAVE BEEN DEPLOYED FOUR TIMES TO HELP PUT DOWN UNREST.

AND IN 1970 PRESIDENT NIXON USED THEM TO GET MAIL DELIVERED DURING A POSTAL STRIKE.

AND THERE WERE THE TIMES THEY WERE USED SURROUNDING CIVIL RIGHTS AND DESEGREGATION.

ONCE IN THE 1950s AND TWICE IN THE 60s.

WHAT IS HAPPENING IN LA IS DIFFERENT HE SAYS.

HE POINTS TO THE CONDITIONS HE SAYS MUST BE PRESENT TO ACTIVATE THE GUARD TO HELP QUELL A REBELLION, AN INVASION BY FOREIGN TROOPS, OR IF THE PRESIDENT IS UNABLE TO EXECUTE FEDERAL LAWS WITH REGULAR FORCES, THAT IS, LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT.

>> WE THINK THE CONDITIONS REQUIRED TO INVOKE THE STATUTE HERE, 12 406 WERE NOT PRESENT AND THUS, THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S RELIANCE ON THAT SECTION OF THE LAW WAS INAPPROPRIATE.

>> Reporter: BOTH TRUMP AND THE BORDER CZAR TOM HOMAN HAVE INSISTED OFFICIALS COULD BE ARRESTED IF THEY DO ANYTHING TO INTERFERE WITH FEDERAL AUTHORITIES.

LAST NIGHT, NEWSOM DARED THE ADMINISTRATION TO ARREST HIM.

AND TODAY, TRUMP SAID THIS.

>> I THINK IT'S GREAT.

GAVIN LIKES -- >> Reporter: I ASKED HIM ABOUT THAT.

>> I'M SURE THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS HE LIKED.

THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT LEGAL, CONSTITUTIONAL OR LAWFUL.

IT'S UNFORTUNATE WE HAVE A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES THAT IS SO RECKLESS AND IRRESPONSIBLE.

>> Reporter: AFTER TRUMP'S REMARK, NEWSOM RESPONDED ON SOCIAL MEDIA SAYING, HE NEVER THOUGHT HE WOULD SEE A PRESIDENT THREATENING TO ARREST A GOVERNOR.

HE CALLED IT AN UNMISTAKABLE STEP TOWARDS AUTHORITARIANISM.

JOHN CARROLL, KPBS NEWS.

>>> IN ANOTHER ESCALATION, U.S. MARINES WILL SOON HAD TO LOS ANGELES.

ABOUT 700 MARINES FROM 29 AREAS WRACKED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.

THEIR MISSION WILL BE TO SUPPORT GUARD MEMBERS WHO ARRIVED TO PROTECT FEDERAL PROPERTY.

OVER THE WEEKEND, PETE HEGSETH SUGGESTED THE MARINES MIGHT COME FROM CAMP PENDLETON.

THOSE OPPOSED TO MILITARY INVOLVEMENT HELD A DEMONSTRATION SUNDAY AT CAMP PENDLETON'S ENTRY GATE.

ONE OF THE ORGANIZERS IS AN AIR FORCE VETERAN.

>> WE WANT THEM TO SEE THE CITIZENS THEY COULD POTENTIALLY BE ORDERED TO MARCH AGAINST.

THEY ARE EVERY DAY PEOPLE JUST LIKE THE FAMILIES THEY COME FROM, AND WE DON'T THINK IT IS RIGHT THAT THEY WOULD BE PUT INTO SITUATIONS THEY ARE FORCED TO POTENTIALLY CAUSE HARM TO US.

>> AND WE DO WANT TO REITERATE THAT THE ACTIVATION ANNOUNCEMENT TODAY IS 429 PALMS, NOT CAMP PENDLETON.

THE CONGRESSMAN SAID HE SENT A LETTER TO THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE ASKING FOR MORE DETAILS.

IN THE MIDST OF RISING TENSION OVER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN, A NEW TRAVEL BAN TOOK EFFECT TODAY.

ARE WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT JULIA BENBROOK LOOKS AT WHY THE ADMINISTRATION SAYS IT IS ENACTING THIS NOW, AND WHAT IT MEANS GOING FORWARD.

>> Reporter: PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP'S SWEEPING NEW TRAVEL BAN IS NOW IN EFFECT.

AS OF MONDAY, MOST CITIZENS FROM A DOZEN COUNTRIES MOSTLY FROM AFRICA AND THE MIDDLE EAST ARE NOW BARRED FROM ENTERING THE UNITED STATES.

IN ADDITION TO THE 12 COUNTRIES THE BAN APPLIES TO, IT ALSO IMPOSES HEIGHTENED RESTRICTIONS ON SEVEN OTHERS, GROUPS THAT REPLIED -- PROVIDE AID TO REFUGEES QUICKLY DENOUNCED THE MOVE.

WHEN TRUMP SIGNED THE PROCLAMATION LAST WEEK HE FRAMED IT AS A WAY TO PROTECT THE UNITED STATES SAYING, QUOTE, WE CANNOT HAVE OPEN MIGRATION FROM ANY COUNTRY WHERE WE CANNOT SAFELY AND RELIABLY THAT AND SCREEN THOSE WHO SEEK TO ENTER THE UNITED STATES.

>> THE STRENGTH OF THE RESTRICTIONS WE ARE APPLYING DEPENDS ON THE SEVERITY OF THE THREAT POSED.

THE LIST IS SUBJECT TO REVISION BASED ON WHETHER MATERIAL IMPROVEMENTS ARE MADE, AND LIKEWISE, NEW COUNTRIES CAN BE ADDED AS NEW THREATS EMERGE AROUND THE WORLD.

>> Reporter: ACCORDING TO THE GUIDANCE ISSUED FROM THE STATE DEPARTMENT, THE BAN APPLIES TO THOSE IMPACTED COUNTRIES WHO DO NOT HAVE VISAS ISSUED BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE.

AND THAT VISA APPLICATIONS FROM THE AFFECTED NATIONS WILL STILL BE REVIEWED AND APPROVED AS APPROPRIATE.

THOSE EXEMPTED INCLUDE DUAL NATIONALS, DIPLOMATS AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS AS WELL AS SOME ATHLETES AND COACHES ARE MAJOR SPORTING EVENTS LIKE THE WORLD CUP AND THE 2028 OLYMPICS.

TRUMP TIED THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE NEW RESTRICTIONS TO THE RECENT TERRORIST ATTACK IN BOULDER, COLORADO.

HE SAID, IT UNDERSCORED THE DANGERS POSED BY SOME VISITORS WHO OVERSTAY THEIR VISAS.

THE MAN CHARGED IN THAT ATTACK IS FROM EGYPT, A COUNTRY THAT IS NOT ON TRUMPS RESTRICTED LIST.

AT THE WHITE HOUSE, AND JULIA BENBROOK.

>>> WE HAVE A SAD UPDATE NOW TO A SMALL PLANE CRASH OFF THE COAST OF POINT LOMA OVER THE WEEKEND.

IS BELIEVED THERE ARE NO SURVIVORS.

THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION RELEASED ITS PRELIMINARY REPORT.

SIX PEOPLE WERE ON BOARD INCLUDING THE PILOT, HIS WIFE, AND ANOTHER MAN ALONG WITH HIS THREE SONS.

IT HAD TAKEN OFF FROM SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FOR PHOENIX BEFORE IT WENT DOWN AROUND 1:00 P.M.

YESTERDAY.

OUR MEDIA PARTNER SPOKE WITH AN EXPERT WHO SAYS THE CRAFT WOULD NOT HAVE GONE DOWN IF ONE OF ITS TWO ENGINES WENT OUT.

>> THIS IS A TWIN ENGINE TURBO PISTON AIRPLANE.

IT CAN FLY ON ONE OF THE TWO ENGINES.

I THINK SOMETHING THAT WILL REVEAL MORE INFORMATION CERTAINLY IS, WERE THERE ANY RADIO COMMUNICATIONS?

>> AN INVESTIGATION BY THE NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD IS ONGOING.

THIS CRASH COMES AFTER ANOTHER SMALL PLANE CRASHED INTO A MURPHY CANYON NEIGHBORHOOD JUST WEEKS AGO.

>>> IT WILL BE A PLEASANTLY COOL NIGHT FOR US TONIGHT AS WE GET TO 61 DEGREES NEAR THE COAST, A LITTLE WARMER INTO THOSE DESERT LOCATIONS.

BORREGO SPRINGS, 72 TONIGHT.

THAT IT IS GOING TO GET STEAMY THERE LATER THIS WEEK WITH THE HEAT BUILDING.

DESERTS ARE GOING TO BE SCORCHING.

WE WILL TALK ABOUT THAT IN JUST A LITTLE BIT.

TUESDAY WE TAKE ANOTHER STEP UP AS THE HEAT CONTINUES TO BUILD WHILE THE NORTHWEST COOLS.

WE CONTINUE TO SIZZLE IN THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

WE WILL HAVE YOUR FULL FORECAST IN JUST A BIT.

>>> TRI-CITY HEALTHCARE DISTRICT AGREED TO HAVE SHARP HEALTHCARE TAKEOVER ITS OPERATIONS AND FINANCES.

KPBS NORTH COUNTY REPORTER ALEXANDER NGUYEN HAS MORE ON WHAT THIS MEANS FOR PATIENTS.

>> TRI-CITY LIKE MANY HEALTHCARE STRIPS IN THE STATE HAS BEEN PLAGUED WITH FINANCIAL ISSUES SINCE THE PANDEMIC.

THE DEAL INCLUDES MORE THAN $100 MILLION IN INVESTMENTS TO STABILIZE TRI-CITIES INVESTMENT SITUATION.

>> IT ALSO INCLUDES AN ASSESSMENT OF THE LIABILITIES.

>> Reporter: HE IS THE CEO OF THE CITY.

HE SAYS, THE DEAL MEANS INCREASED ACCESS TO CARE FOR MORE COUNTY RESIDENTS.

IT SERVES OCEANSIDE, CARLSBAD, THE VISTA AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

>> MORE PRIMARY CARE, SPECIALTY CARE, AMBULATORY SERVICES, DELIVERING CARE WHERE PEOPLE WANT THAT CARE, AND GROWTH WITHIN OUR REGION TO BUILD WHAT I BELIEVE WILL ONE DAY IN SHORT ORDER BE THE FLAGSHIP MEDICAL CENTER IN ALL OF NORTH COUNTY.

>> Reporter: TRI-CITY HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A PARTNER FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS.

SHARP AND HEALTH SUBMITTED PROPOSALS IN 2023 AND THE BOARD CHOSE UCSD.

HOWEVER, THE DEAL FELL THROUGH LAST YEAR.

THIS TIME AROUND BOTH SHARP AND UCSD ADMITTED PROPOSALS AGAIN BUT THE BOARD CHOSE SHARP.

SCOTT EVANS IS THE CHIEF STRATEGIST.

>> THIS TIME, WE REALLY WERE ABLE TO ANSWER ALL OF TRI- CITIES REQUEST IN TERMS OF WHAT THEY WERE REALLY LOOKING FOR.

>> TRI-CITY CLOSED ITS LABOR UNIT TWO YEARS AGO.

THEY EXPECT THE DEAL WITH SHARP WILL BRING THAT BACK.

>> SHARP DELIVERS MORE BABIES IN SAN DIEGO THAN ANY OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDER.

AND SO, IT IS DEFINITELY ONE OF OUR CORE STRENGTHS.

>> TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE WOMEN'S HEALTH SERVICES IN WAYS THAT ARE NOT ACCESSIBLE CURRENTLY IN NORTH COUNTY, TO ME, IS ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES THAT LIE WITHIN THIS PARTNERSHIP.

>> Reporter: SINCE SHARP IS A PRIVATE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, THE DEAL WOULD NEED VOTERS APPROVAL.

HOWEVER, BOTH SIDES SAY THE VOTE IS AT LEAST ONE YEAR AWAY.

SHARP HAS EXPERIENCED SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATING PUBLIC- PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS.

IT TOOK OVER THE HOSPITAL OVER 30 YEARS AGO.

>> IT IS OUR EAST COUNTY FLAGSHIP CAMPUS.

I THINK WE WOULD BE VERY FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO CREATE THE SAME THING IN TRI-CITY.

>> Reporter: THE TWO ENTITIES WILL STILL NEED TO SIGN A LETTER OF INTENT THAT IS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED THIS WEEK.

ALEXANDER NGUYEN, K PBS NEWS.

>>> FEDERAL GUIDELINES FOR COVER 19 VACCINE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE CHANGING TO EXCLUDE HEALTHY PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 65.

KPBS HEALTH REPORTER HEIDI DiMARCO SAYS SOME ADVOCATES WARN IT COULD WORSEN HEALTH DISPARITIES, ESPECIALLY FOR LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES OF COLOR.

>> Reporter: PEDIATRICIAN MARSHA SPITZER REMEMBERS WHAT IT WAS LIKE BEFORE A COVERED VACCINE WAS AVAILABLE.

>> IT WAS AWFUL.

IT WAS AWFUL.

I DON'T EVER WANT TO GO TO THAT AGAIN.

>> Reporter: SHE SAYS OF THE PANDEMIC EXPOSED DEEP HEALTH INEQUITIES.

>> ARE MOST MARGINALIZED OR UNDER RESOURCED COMMUNITIES ARE THE ONES HIT HARDEST BY COVID.

>> Reporter: THE NEW VACCINE POLICY CHANGE COULD HURT MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES EVEN MORE SAYS UC SAN DIEGO PUBLIC HEALTH'S EXPERT CHERYL.

>> WE FIND WHO ARE IN MOST VULNERABLE POSITIONS WHETHER IT IS ECONOMICALLY OR SOCIALLY ARE THE ONES WHO WILL HAVE THE GREATEST HURT OR THE GREATEST IMPACT BASED ON LACK OF AVAILABILITY.

>> Reporter: LATINOS MAKE UP 55% OF CALIFORNIA'S FRONT-LINE WORKERS.

PUTTING THEM AT HIGHER RISK OF EXPOSURE.

IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY, THEY DIED FROM COVID AT A HIGHER RATE THAN WHITE RESIDENTS.

>> SO, ALL POLICIES AROUND VACCINES REALLY NEED TO BE THOUGHTFUL ABOUT THE DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS THAT PEOPLE HAVE IN THE CONTEXT OF THEIR LIVES THAT COULD THEN IMPACT WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE GOING TO BE LIKELY TO GET AN INFECTION OR NOT.

>> Reporter: RESEARCH SHARES BLACK AND HISPANIC COMMUNITIES WERE HIT HARDER BY VACCINE HESITANCY PARTLY DUE TO PAST MEDICAL MISTRUST AND A HISTORY OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION WHICH CONTRIBUTED TO LOWER VACCINATION RATES.

SPITZER WORRIES A NEW POLICY CHANGE WILL LEAVE FAMILIES CONFUSED ABOUT THEIR OPTIONS.

>> ANY TIME THERE IS SORT OF CONFUSION THAT MAKES ACCESS HARDER, AND I THINK IT MAKES IT MOST DIFFICULT FOR FAMILIES WHO ARE ALREADY STRUGGLING WITH SOME OF THESE DECISIONS -- >> Reporter: COMMUNITY CLINICS LIKE FAMILY HEALTH CENTERS OF SAN DIEGO HAVE A CRITICAL ROLE IN BRIDGING THAT TRUST AND EDUCATION, SHE SAYS.

>> I WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS WITH FAMILIES.

I WILL TELL THEM WHAT MY RECOMMENDATION IS BASED ON THE SCIENCE.

>> Reporter: MY ALVAREZ WARRANTS A POLICY SHIFT COULD ALSO LEAD SOME INSURERS TO STOP COVERING THE VACCINE.

>> IT'S ALMOST $200.00 TO PAY OUT-OF-POCKET FOR A VACCINE.

WHEN YOU ARE TALKING TO FAMILIES, THAT $200.00 CAN HELP TO GO PAY THEIR RENT, PAY FOR CHILD CARE COSTS, PAY FOR FOOD.

>> Reporter: ADULTS WITHOUT INSURANCE OR WITH INCOMES BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL WERE NOT JUST LIKELY TO GET VACCINATED THAN THOSE WITH HIGH COVERAGE OR EARNINGS ACCORDING TO CDC DATA.

A NEW NIH FUNDED STUDY SHOWS THAT ONE IN SEVEN CHILDREN UNDER 6 WHO GOT COVID DEVELOPED LONG COVID.

ANDERSON SAYS, THE RISK REMAINS.

>> THIS POLICY SHOULD NOT LEAVE ANYONE THINKING THAT COVID IS NO LONGER A PUBLIC HEALTH CONCERN.

>> Reporter: EXPERTS STRESS THIS POLICY COULD DEEPEN GAPS IN CARE UNLESS PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES STEP UP EFFORTS TO ENSURE ACCESS TO VACCINES, ESPECIALLY IN THE COMMUNITIES HIT HARDEST BY COVID 19 FROM THE START.

HEIDI DiMARCO, KPBS NEWS.

>>> DISTRICT ATTORNEY ANNOUNCED THE LAUNCH OF A NEW TOOL TO ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS IN OUR REGION.

THE DA DEMONSTRATED THE SHELTER READY MOBILE APP THIS MORNING.

THE ACT CONNECTS.

HENCE -- CONNECTS PEOPLE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS TO ACCESS TO A SHELTER IN REAL- TIME.

>> IT'S A PRACTICAL SOLUTION THAT REFLECTS OUR CORE BELIEF THAT HOMELESSNESS IS NOT JUST A PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE.

IT IS ALSO A PUBLIC HEALTH AND HUMANITARIAN CRISIS.

IT DEMANDS URGENT, COORDINATED AND COMPASSIONATE ACTION.

>> THE DA SAYS THE SHELTER READY APP HAS BEEN IN BETA TESTING AND IS NOW READY TO BE ROLLED OUT COUNTYWIDE.

>>> COUNCILMEMBER TONY BLAIN IS UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

THAT IS ACCORDING TO THE SHERIFF STATION.

THIS VIDEO SENT TO KPBS BY THE GROUP RECALL TONY BLAIN APPEARS TO SHOW HIM BEING SEARCHED BY OFFICERS AFTER TUESDAY'S COUNCIL MEETING.

IT IS UNCLEAR IN THE VIDEO WHICH AGENCY WAS INVOLVED.

BUT THE SHERIFF'S LIEUTENANT SAYS, IT WAS THE DAS OFFICE.

BLAIN HAS BEEN ACCUSED OF VOTE TRADING, THREATENING RECALLS AGAINST COLLEAGUES, AND ATTEMPTING TO USE LAW ENFORCEMENT TO SILENCE CRITICS.

THE DAS OFFICE SAYS IT IS UNABLE TO CONFIRM ANY POTENTIAL INVESTIGATION.

BLAIN SIDESTEPPED THE ISSUE IN A STATEMENT SAYING IN PART THAT HE HAS BEEN CALLED UP TO ACTIVE MILITARY DUTY AND WILL NOT BE ATTENDING ANY CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS UNTIL NOVEMBER.

HE SAYS, HE WILL BE MONITORING AND RESPONDING TO CITY EMAILS.

>>> THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY SEEING A SLIP IN SALES FROM RECENT TARIFFS.

ONE BUSINESS IS A HAND PROP ROOM IN HOLLYWOOD THAT HAS SUPPLIED PROPS FOR BLOCKBUSTER FILMS AND TV SHOWS.

VERONICA WENT BEHIND THE SCENES TO SEE WHAT BUSINESS HAS BEEN LIKE FOR THEM SINCE THE TARIFFS TOOK EFFECT.

>> Reporter: IN HOLLYWOOD, THE ENTERTAINMENT CAPITAL OF THE WORLD, THERE ARE SIGNS OF DISTRESS FOR THE MOVIE AND TV INDUSTRY.

>> THE WAY YOU CAN FIND OUT YOURSELF IS HOW EMPTY THE AISLES ARE.

>> Reporter: YOU THINK ABOUT ALL THE DIFFERENT PIECES THAT GO INTO A SET.

>> EVERY TIME YOU SEE LUGGAGE, WHETHER IT'S A BACKGROUND OR IS PHYSICALLY IN THE SCENE, FOR EXAMPLE, THIS IS OPPENHEIMER'S BAG IN OPPENHEIMER.

>> Reporter: FROM OPPENHEIMER TO ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD, THIS PROP RENTAL COMPANY BRINGS PRODUCTION SETS TO LIFE.

RECENTLY, SALES HAVE DIPPED TO UNPRECEDENTED LOWS, DOWN 35 TO 40%.

>> WHEN PEOPLE THINK WHO CARES?

THEY ARE A BUNCH OF RICH ACTORS AND DIRECTORS, YEAH, MAYBE THE ONE%.

WHAT THE REST OF THE JOBS ARE BLUE-COLLAR JOBS.

>> Reporter: HELLO -- SLOWLY AND STEADILY, THERE HAVE BEEN TAX INCENTIVES.

>> THIS IS A STRIKE.

IT IS A LONG, ONGOING MALAISE.

IT IS SIGNIFICANT AND MORE THREATENING THAN ANY OTHER TIME WE HAVE SEEN.

>> THIS HAS BEEN PRETTY, PRETTY BRUTAL.

>> Reporter: YOU MADE IT THROUGH THE RECESSION, BUT THIS IS A HARDER TIME?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> Reporter: EVEN PRESIDENT TRUMP IS WEIGHING IN.

LAST MONTH HE CALLED FOR A 100% TARIFF ON MOVIES IMPORTED TO THE U.S. MADE IN FOREIGN LANDS.

>> IF YOU ARE HOLLYWOOD, YOU ARE TERRIFIED.

THE LAST THING YOU WANT IS TARIFFS ON YOUR MOVIES IN OTHER MARKETS ESPECIALLY WHEN THE WORLD IS OVER HALF OF YOUR REVENUE.

IDEALLY, WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE IS A NATIONAL INCENTIVE, NATIONAL TAX BREAK.

>> EVERYONE WANTS PRODUCTION TO STAY HERE.

IT'S JUST HOW YOU DO IT.

IT'S A DIFFERENT BALLGAME NOW WHERE IT'S ALL BY INCENTIVES, YOU KNOW?

PEOPLE GO SHOOT OUT OF THE COUNTRY BECAUSE THEY GET A TAX BREAK.

PEOPLE SHOOT IN ATLANTA BECAUSE THEY GET A TAX BREAK.

WE AS THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA HAS TO KEEP UP WITH THE TIMES.

>> Reporter: IT'S NOT JUST SUPPORTING STAFF FEELING THE LACK OF WORK.

SO ARE ACTORS.

>> WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE ON A WORKING SET FOR A JOB?

>> WHAT WAS THAT?

FEBRUARY, 2023?

YEAH, IT HAS BEEN OVER TWO YEARS.

>> Reporter: LIKE OTHER TALENT, SHE MOONLIGHTS AS A WAITRESS TO PAY THE BILLS.

FOR THE FIRST TIME, HER SERVER- SIDE HUSTLE IS HER MAIN JOB.

>> IS THERE A FEAR THAT HOLLYWOOD DOESN'T COME BACK TO LIFE?

>> NO!

I FEEL LIKE THERE IS TOO MUCH INDUSTRY BUILT INTO THE CITY.

SO, THE NEXT STEP IS TO BRING IT BACK.

>> Reporter: MAYOR, THIS IS AN ICONIC HALLWAY.

>> IT IS.

IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF MY EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.

BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE EASY TO FILM AT CITY HALL.

>> Reporter: LOS ANGELES MAYOR KAREN BASS IS TRYING TO KEEP STUDIOS FROM LEAVING TINSELTOWN BY CUTTING -- >> Reporter: HOLLYWOOD IS NOT -- >> I THOUGHT WE WOULD ASSUME IT WOULD ALWAYS BE HERE.

A NUMBER OF POLICIES HAVE BUT -- BEEN PUT INTO PLACE.

IT WAS ACTUALLY MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT.

I THINK WE DID NOT FORESEE THAT THE INDUSTRY WOULD PICK UP AND MOVE, IT NEEDS TO BE CHEAPER, IT NEEDS TO BE MORE ECONOMICALLY ATTRACTIVE TO FILM HERE.

BUT WHILE WE ARE PUSHING FOR THAT IN SACRAMENTO, WE NEED TO DO WHATEVER WE CAN TO MAKE IT EASIER TO FILM RIGHT HERE IN OUR OWN CITY.

>> WHEREVER THE BUSINESS GOES IS WHERE IT GOES.

I WILL STILL BE HERE.

I WILL STILL BE PUTTING IN MY EFFORTS.

IT'S GOING TO LOOK DIFFERENTLY THAN IT EVER HAS.

THAT IS SOMETHING I HAVE TO ACCEPT ABOUT WHERE WE ARE.

AND I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
