His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Just as community banks have started to master the PPP loan process, they’re having to shift their focus to loan forgiveness. Pun expects her clients to start that process as early as the first week of June. Pun doesn’t want the loan forgiveness process to be a mad dash like the first round of PPP funding, so she’s working with the SBA to clarify the rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re still trying to finalize exactly what it is they need to provide to the bank as well as the documentation and also forms that they need to complete,” Pun said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Businesses that were approved for the SBA loan have eight weeks to \u003ca href=\"https://www.sba.gov/funding-programs/loans/coronavirus-relief-options/paycheck-protection-program\">spend 75% of that loan on payroll\u003c/a>. But some shelter-in-place restrictions have prohibited businesses from opening. Jeff Bellisario, executive director of the Bay Area Council Economic Institute, said non-essential businesses are affected the most by these restrictions, and their recovery will be likely be slow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think you’re going to see many small businesses going out of business and potentially having an impact then on the banking system,” Bellisario said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Editor’s note: KQED is among the local businesses and media organizations that have received a Paycheck Protection Program loan.

Beyond the health risks of opening too quickly, there’s a \u003cem>business\u003c/em> risk, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've seen in other states like Georgia, where the economy's just been thrown wide open. And the problem is consumer confidence isn't there,” Cheng explained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that’s not just a lack of confidence in the economy, but in public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The public was not sure if it was safe to go shopping in the way that the state said it was safe to go shopping. And so they didn't go shopping,” Cheng said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those businesses staffed up and spent major cash on reopening, but that cash didn’t see returns. In late April, local news outlets in Georgia featured headlines like, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9Z6s_9cG_w\">Some Georgia businesses announced they would open, then almost immediately regretted it.\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cheng said that even when businesses reopen, barbershops like Buffa’s may not be able to help as many clients in as many barber chairs as before to allow for social distancing. Tattoo parlors like Groeschel’s may need to bolster their sanitization methods, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This “last 5%” of businesses that have yet to reopen, Cheng said, “are going to go through a really difficult time for a very long time. And I think that's just a reality that we're facing at this point. They're going to need significant help to get restarted and they have to rethink a lot of their business model.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Groeschel’s plans are already being drawn along those lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our thinking in the tattoo industry is like we know how to do this. We're like up there with hospitals (with) sterilization,” he said. “Tell the mayor and the health department, like, you know, get on the ball here and let's get us open safely.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some businesses feel they won’t survive the timelines laid out by city and state leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11819600\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11819600\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/RS43244_001_KQED_SanFrancisco_GoldenGateCrossfit_05192020-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/RS43244_001_KQED_SanFrancisco_GoldenGateCrossfit_05192020-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/RS43244_001_KQED_SanFrancisco_GoldenGateCrossfit_05192020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/RS43244_001_KQED_SanFrancisco_GoldenGateCrossfit_05192020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/RS43244_001_KQED_SanFrancisco_GoldenGateCrossfit_05192020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">“I have a trickle of income left.

After her customers ebbed, she moved her gym some blocks away, and began the heavy lift of financial recovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“March was starting to look really good for me,” she said. Then the pandemic hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Rabkin, it was among the worst years in the eight-year run of her gym. “I have a trickle of income left. My business has been completely wiped out. It's been totally devastating,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city did not recompense her after the Van Ness construction project, though local officials later changed city rules to bake in merchant compensation into future projects, citing frustrated entrepreneurs like Rabkin. She garnered just as little government aid during the COVID-19 pandemic, she said. At this point, she just wants to work again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our hospitals are empty and our curve is flat. There should be easing of restrictions. And I'm not talking about flipping a switch, but the gradual opening should be happening faster,” she said, “or there's going to be permanent closure of business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Danielle Rabkin']'I've spent eight years building this business, to even think about having to consider an exit strategy for something that is of no fault of my own is devastating'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco’s tax database shows about 470 businesses with the words “crossfit,\" \"gym” or “fitness” in its business name. Cheng, from the Chamber of Commerce, said Rabkin’s story illustrates a sad reality of the COVID-19 pandemic: Some small businesses will simply close, and there’s little that can be done about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city must prepare for what comes next.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cheng said the city, and merchants groups like his own, need to invest in those business owners, even if their local barbershops, tattoo parlors or gyms go under.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The gym owner on Van Ness, she knows how to run a successful business. She knows what a successful gym looks like. We can't lose that talent,” Cheng said. “And so we can, after this pandemic passes, re-inspire her to give it another go in San Francisco. You know, she'll create those jobs again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like the front-line workers, artists and city leaders, entrepreneurs will be among those who will rebuild San Francisco, Cheng said. People across the Bay Area, far and wide, know small businesses are the building blocks of thriving neighborhoods like North Beach or Chinatown, the Ingleside or Haight-Ashbury.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rabkin is a fighter. She just may start anew. But, she said, shutting down her gym — her dream — is almost inconceivable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I've spent eight years building this business,” she said, “to even think about having to consider an exit strategy for something that is of no fault of my own is devastating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if businesses like hers close, it may be devastating to San Francisco, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

When you go out, wear a mask and stay at least 6 feet away from other people. Practice basic hygiene and be mindful of surfaces other people have touched. All these steps continue to slow the spread of the disease and give officials more time to procure test kits, train contact tracing teams and ensure hospitals can provide the best care possible to people who do contract COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m hopeful that as we take these incremental steps to the new normal, which will include wearing masks, social distancing, basic hygiene to slow the spread of COVID-19 that the virus will be slowed,” Colfax said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

"content": "\u003cp>Many restaurant bars in California – and bars that collaborate with restaurants – have found a way to stay open during the COVID-19 pandemic: selling “curbside” cocktails along with takeout food. It’s a combination required by law for to-go alcohol sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what do you do when you run a straight-ahead bar that typically just sells alcohol? For some bar owners, it’s turning out to be a recipe for disaster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider the story of Christos Louvis, who’s been running downtown San Jose’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.sjdivebar.com/\">Dive Bar\u003c/a> with his parents since 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We always joke in the bar business that it’s recession proof,” Louvis said. “If anything, people drink more because they have more problems. They’re trying to just get out and enjoy themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dive Bar prides itself on being a neighborhood joint: sports on the televisions, pool tables in the back and drink specials for the students a few blocks away at San Jose State University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bar has a \u003ca href=\"https://www.abc.ca.gov/licensing/license-types/\">Type 48 liquor license\u003c/a>, which allows it to sell alcohol without food. Because of that, the bar can’t remain open under Santa Clara County’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/covid19/Pages/public-health-orders.aspx#faq\">shelter-in-place restrictions\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Louvis feels like he’s up against a wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Allow us to [sell] a closed beer or a to-go cup of a drink,” he said. “Allow us to fight!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Louvis did apply for a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan through Wells Fargo, but his application was denied. He applied again for the second round of funding, but he’s now worried that if the loan does come through, his laid-off employees will refuse the money, because, with unemployment benefits, they can make \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/business/networth/article/How-to-lure-back-California-workers-making-more-15258416.php\">roughly $2,400\u003c/a> a month – significantly more than he can afford to pay them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our employees are like family. We’ve been with each other for so long,” Louvis said. “I don’t blame them, but I honestly don’t think they’d come back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Coronavirus Coverage' tag='coronavirus']Teague Kernan can sympathize. He runs two bars in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood, \u003ca href=\"http://tupelosf.com/\">Tupelo\u003c/a>, which offers Southern soul food and creative cocktails, and \u003ca href=\"http://thebellecora.com/\">Belle Cora\u003c/a>, a bistro and bar for new American fare. Even though he’s allowed to sell to-go alcohol thanks to the food, Kernan said they’re still struggling hard and that stand-alone bars are in even bigger trouble.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Bars will probably be closed longer than any other establishment or business,” Kernan said. “Owners are all looking at this like, if we can break even and not make any money in the next year, that would be a win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kernan’s bars thrive when there are live concerts and sports seasons for people to watch together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re going to have to pretty much completely reconfigure our business model to try to adapt,” Kernan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After restrictions lift, Louvis isn’t sure he’ll even have customers left. His landlords have deferred rent for the next few months, but at some point, that rent will come due. In August, he’s also expecting a rent hike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To save money, Louvis has moved out of his San Jose apartment and in with his parents. They’re also taking money out of their retirement savings to keep the lights on at Dive Bar for as long as they can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“God forbid we lose the business without being able to sell it down the line,” Louvis said. “If they just take it from us, that’s it. That’s all we have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

It’s a combination required by law for to-go alcohol sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what do you do when you run a straight-ahead bar that typically just sells alcohol? For some bar owners, it’s turning out to be a recipe for disaster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider the story of Christos Louvis, who’s been running downtown San Jose’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.sjdivebar.com/\">Dive Bar\u003c/a> with his parents since 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We always joke in the bar business that it’s recession proof,” Louvis said. “If anything, people drink more because they have more problems. They’re trying to just get out and enjoy themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dive Bar prides itself on being a neighborhood joint: sports on the televisions, pool tables in the back and drink specials for the students a few blocks away at San Jose State University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bar has a \u003ca href=\"https://www.abc.ca.gov/licensing/license-types/\">Type 48 liquor license\u003c/a>, which allows it to sell alcohol without food. Because of that, the bar can’t remain open under Santa Clara County’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/covid19/Pages/public-health-orders.aspx#faq\">shelter-in-place restrictions\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He applied again for the second round of funding, but he’s now worried that if the loan does come through, his laid-off employees will refuse the money, because, with unemployment benefits, they can make \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/business/networth/article/How-to-lure-back-California-workers-making-more-15258416.php\">roughly $2,400\u003c/a> a month – significantly more than he can afford to pay them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our employees are like family.

We cannot let up on addressing this issue,” he said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing advocates were relieved to see that Newsom had committed to keeping $500 million for the state’s low-income housing tax credit program, a key tool used to spur affordable housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am really impressed at the governor’s commitment to not sacrifice critical investments in housing the homeless and creating more affordable homes when we most need them, despite the record deficits the state is facing,” said Matt Schwartz, president and CEO of the nonprofit California Housing Partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California will also receive $532 million in federal CARES Act funding for housing and homelessness programs. The additional money will be used for “acquiring housing for people experiencing homelessness, as well as securing low- and moderate-income housing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An additional $331 million from the National Mortgage Settlement will be used to help homeowners avoid foreclosures and provide legal aid to renters facing eviction. The budget did not include emergency rent relief, which tenants’ rights groups have been fighting for as many renters have lost income during shelter-in-place orders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The revised budget also slashed nearly half a million dollars for mixed-income developments and urban affordable housing projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The economic outlook for housing production remained bleak, according to the state’s Department of Finance. The department predicted shrinking homeownership, a 21% reduction in housing construction permits this year and a reluctance to build homes during an economic downturn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t want us to lose sight, even in this moment, that we still have to set some pretty audacious goals in bringing homeless people indoors,” said Tomiquia Moss, founder and chief executive of All Home, a Bay Area organization dedicated to tackling homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to look at who’s at risk of homelessness and make sure we’re helping those people first,” Moss said. “Otherwise the bottom will just keep sinking further down.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom unveiled Thursday a scaled-back plan to address housing and homelessness in California as part of a revised budget that attempts to tackle a projected $54.3 billion deficit brought on by the economic impact of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re going to be dealing with challenges we haven’t faced in some time,” Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under his revised plan, the state will use $750 million, which his office says was procured through a federal relief package, to buy hotels and motels that are now leased through \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/04/03/at-newly-converted-motel-governor-newsom-launches-project-roomkey-a-first-in-the-nation-initiative-to-secure-hotel-motel-rooms-to-protect-homeless-individuals-from-covid-19/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Project Roomkey\u003c/a>, a program to house homeless people during the coronavirus pandemic. The state will then turn them over to local governments to transition into permanent supportive housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Purchasing the hotels is really a tremendous opportunity,” said Anya Lawler, a housing policy advocate with the Western Center on Law & Poverty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s gone from the budget is a $1 billion homelessness fund Newsom originally proposed to pay for rental assistance, support communities to build more affordable housing and help stabilize board and care homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We cannot let up on addressing this issue,” he said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing advocates were relieved to see that Newsom had committed to keeping $500 million for the state’s low-income housing tax credit program, a key tool used to spur affordable housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am really impressed at the governor’s commitment to not sacrifice critical investments in housing the homeless and creating more affordable homes when we most need them, despite the record deficits the state is facing,” said Matt Schwartz, president and CEO of the nonprofit California Housing Partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California will also receive $532 million in federal CARES Act funding for housing and homelessness programs.

The budget did not include emergency rent relief, which tenants’ rights groups have been fighting for as many renters have lost income during shelter-in-place orders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The revised budget also slashed nearly half a million dollars for mixed-income developments and urban affordable housing projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The economic outlook for housing production remained bleak, according to the state’s Department of Finance. The department predicted shrinking homeownership, a 21% reduction in housing construction permits this year and a reluctance to build homes during an economic downturn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t want us to lose sight, even in this moment, that we still have to set some pretty audacious goals in bringing homeless people indoors,” said Tomiquia Moss, founder and chief executive of All Home, a Bay Area organization dedicated to tackling homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to look at who’s at risk of homelessness and make sure we’re helping those people first,” Moss said. “Otherwise the bottom will just keep sinking further down.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The budget also proposes deep cuts to virtually all state programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is no normal year. And this no ordinary May Revision,” Newsom noted in his message to the Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The revised plan reflects a 22% drop in revenue and calls for general fund spending of $133.9 billion, down from $153 billion in January. The total state budget is pegged at $203 billion, a $19 billion drop from just four months ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Component-root-0-2-140 Component-p-0-2-132\">The cuts are part of a plan to cover a $54.3 billion budget deficit caused by plummeting state revenues after a mandatory, statewide stay-at-home order forced most businesses to close and put more than 4.7 million people out of work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Component-root-0-2-140 Component-p-0-2-132\">Newsom proposed to fill that hole through a combination of cuts, tax increases, canceled spending, internal borrowing and tapping state reserves. He also proposed a 10% pay cut for all state workers, including himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Component-root-0-2-140 Component-p-0-2-132\">“Nothing breaks my heart more than having to make budget cuts,” he said. “There’s a human being behind every single number.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Component-root-0-2-140 Component-p-0-2-132\">Under Newsom’s proposal, K-12 education would take a major hit, with a $6.9 billion reduction in general fund dollars, a 12% decrease from last year. Newsom said he aimed to soften the blow with around $6 billion in federal CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) funding, in part to address “learning loss” from COVID-19 related school closures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom also called on the federal government to step up and help support the states, saying Congress and the Trump administration have a “moral, ethical and economic obligation to help support the states” by supporting the so-called HEROES (Health and Economic Recovery Omnibus Emergency Solutions) Act proposed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Help support America and Americans. The HEROES Act is the best approach,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As someone who came to the Legislature while California was still struggling in the Great Recession, I know how important it is during this current budget emergency that we build on lessons learned and avoid mistakes of the past,” said state Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, D-San Diego. She said the governor’s revised budget presented “a challenging path ahead — but a path made more manageable by the decade of responsible budgeting and sound fiscal practices we put in place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Sen.

The Legislature must pass the 2020-21 budget by June 15 to meet a constitutional deadline, but will likely have to revise it again after income tax revenues are paid in mid-July. The greatest share of state revenue comes from personal income taxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11816775 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/747b1340-gettyimages-56531571-e1548006348391-1020x680-1020x680.jpg']While presenting his revised May budget proposal today, Newsom acknowledged the havoc the pandemic has wreaked on the state’s finances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office largely agrees with the Newsom administration’s projections. In its Spring Fiscal Outlook report, the LAO said the state can expect budget deficits until \u003ca href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/4228\">at least the 2023-2024 fiscal year\u003c/a>, with shortfalls up to $126 billion in some scenarios. It recommends a combination of approaches to address the budget problem, including tapping reserves, making budget cuts, finding new sources of revenues and shifting costs around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state Assembly is already preparing to take quick action. Assembly Budget Committee Chair Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, initially said he had anticipated passing a budget that continues the funding currently in place until tax revenues come in. But \u003ca href=\"https://abgt.assembly.ca.gov/sites/abgt.assembly.ca.gov/files/Budget%20Update%2C%20May%2011%2C%202020.pdf\">in a recent memo\u003c/a>, he said the Legislature has to act sooner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We cannot afford to delay action and will need to make difficult decisions in the coming month,” Ting wrote. “We expect that on June 15, the Assembly will have to make difficult decisions to ensure California’s budget is balanced.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The current budget situation is a dramatic swing from January when Newsom’s administration was projecting a $6 billion surplus. The governor was proposing substantial spending on housing and extending Medi-Cal to income-eligible undocumented seniors 65 and older. He had proposed increasing state-funded preschool slots and creating a new Department of Early Childhood Development. Much of that may be put on hold as the state grapples with its new budget reality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Softening the blow somewhat will be the estimated $16 billion in the state’s Budget Stabilization Account, commonly called the “rainy day fund,” which remains untapped. It’s unclear whether the state can legally use some of those funds in the current fiscal year, which ends June 30.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This is a breaking story and will be updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

In its Spring Fiscal Outlook report, the LAO said the state can expect budget deficits until \u003ca href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/4228\">at least the 2023-2024 fiscal year\u003c/a>, with shortfalls up to $126 billion in some scenarios. It recommends a combination of approaches to address the budget problem, including tapping reserves, making budget cuts, finding new sources of revenues and shifting costs around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state Assembly is already preparing to take quick action. Assembly Budget Committee Chair Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, initially said he had anticipated passing a budget that continues the funding currently in place until tax revenues come in. But \u003ca href=\"https://abgt.assembly.ca.gov/sites/abgt.assembly.ca.gov/files/Budget%20Update%2C%20May%2011%2C%202020.pdf\">in a recent memo\u003c/a>, he said the Legislature has to act sooner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We cannot afford to delay action and will need to make difficult decisions in the coming month,” Ting wrote. “We expect that on June 15, the Assembly will have to make difficult decisions to ensure California’s budget is balanced.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The current budget situation is a dramatic swing from January when Newsom’s administration was projecting a $6 billion surplus. The governor was proposing substantial spending on housing and extending Medi-Cal to income-eligible undocumented seniors 65 and older. He had proposed increasing state-funded preschool slots and creating a new Department of Early Childhood Development. Much of that may be put on hold as the state grapples with its new budget reality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Softening the blow somewhat will be the estimated $16 billion in the state’s Budget Stabilization Account, commonly called the “rainy day fund,” which remains untapped. It’s unclear whether the state can legally use some of those funds in the current fiscal year, which ends June 30.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This is a breaking story and will be updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
