Several Democratic senators demanded that Barrett pledge not to take part in any election case. She has made no such commitment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re here to tell Sen.

The EDD has said a representative will determine eligibility on a case-by-case basis by scheduling a phone interview. For example, you may be eligible for unemployment benefits if your employer has temporarily allowed you to work less than full-time hours due to your child care situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In such cases, you may be eligible for reduced benefits based on the amount of your weekly earnings, as long as you meet all other eligibility requirements. The department will contact you and your employer for information to determine your eligibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I collect benefits if my child’s school shuts down and I have to stay home to care for my child if I’m not currently employed or I had to quit work because of my child care needs?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You may be eligible for unemployment benefits. An EDD representative will determine eligibility on a case-by-case basis by scheduling a phone interview with you.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Are benefits available if my employer reduces my hours or shuts down operations due to impacts of the coronavirus?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>If your employer reduced your hours or shut down operations due to COVID-19, you are encouraged to file a claim. Unemployment provides partial wage replacement to workers who lose their job or have their hours reduced, through no fault of their own. Workers who are temporarily unemployed due to COVID-19 and expected to return to work with their employer within a few weeks are not required to actively seek work each week. However, they must remain able, available and ready to work during their unemployment for each week of benefits claimed and meet all other eligibility criteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>How much can I collect in benefits with an unemployment insurance claim?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You can use the \u003ca href=\"https://www.edd.ca.gov/Unemployment/UI-Calculator.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unemployment insurance calculator\u003c/a> to help estimate your potential weekly benefit amount.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I still collect unemployment benefits if I am able to work remotely from home?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Working your full normal hours remotely would not qualify you for benefits. However, you could collect some benefits if your usual number of work hours are reduced through no fault of your own. The first $25 or 25% of your wages, whichever is the greater amount, is not counted as wages earned and will not be reduced from your weekly benefit amount. For example, if you earned $100 in a week, the department would not count $25 as wages and would only deduct $75 from your weekly benefit amount. For someone who has a weekly benefit amount of $450, they would be paid a reduced amount of $375.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I collect disability and unemployment benefits at the same time?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You have the right to apply and file a claim for unemployment and disability benefits at the same time, but you can only collect payments under one benefit program at a time. The EDD encourages people to file a claim under one program based on your circumstances or file under both programs if you are unsure of which program is most appropriate. The department has said they will review the facts and determine eligibility for the appropriate program.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I start collecting disability benefits and then transition to an unemployment claim if my workplace operations continue to be impacted with a slowdown or shutdown?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Yes. If your employer shuts down operations or reduces hours for workers while you are on your disability claim, you may apply for unemployment benefits at that time. The EDD said they will help determine the start of your unemployment claim as long as you meet all other eligibility requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I start collecting unemployment benefits because I am laid off or have had my work hours reduced, and then switch to a disability claim if I become sick?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Yes. If you become sick while you are out of work, you can apply for a disability claim, which can provide a higher benefit amount if you’re eligible. A medical certification is required to substantiate your illness. If you are approved for a disability insurance claim, your unemployment claim will be suspended. If you recover but remain unemployed, you may then return to the remainder of your benefits as long as you remain out of work and are otherwise eligible. You will need to reapply to reopen your unemployment claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I start collecting unemployment benefits because I am laid off or have had my work hours reduced, and then switch to a Paid Family Leave claim if I have to care for a family member who is sick?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Yes. If you have a family member who becomes sick while you are out of work, you can apply for a Paid Family Leave claim which can provide a higher benefit amount. A medical certification is required to prove your family member’s illness. If you are approved for a \u003ca href=\"https://www.edd.ca.gov/Disability/How_to_File_a_PFL_Claim_in_SDI_Online.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paid Family Leave\u003c/a> claim, your Unemployment Insurance (UI) claim will be suspended.

If you are an independent contractor, you should list yourself as your last employer. If you believe you are misclassified as an independent contractor instead of an employee, you should list the business you contract with as your last employer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be sure to include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>The employer name, phone number and address.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Type of work performed.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Dates worked.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Your gross wages and how you were paid (such as hourly or weekly).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>If you are a gig worker, you should list your gig employer as your last employer.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch4>Would I qualify for benefits if I choose to stay home from work due to underlying health conditions and concerns about exposure to the virus?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You can be eligible for benefits if you choose to stay home. Once you file your claim, the department will contact you if they need more information.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Would I qualify for benefits if my child’s school shuts down and I have to miss work to care for that child who is not ill?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You may be eligible for unemployment benefits. The EDD has said a representative will determine eligibility on a case-by-case basis by scheduling a phone interview. For example, you may be eligible for unemployment benefits if your employer has temporarily allowed you to work less than full-time hours due to your child care situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In such cases, you may be eligible for reduced benefits based on the amount of your weekly earnings, as long as you meet all other eligibility requirements. The department will contact you and your employer for information to determine your eligibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I collect benefits if my child’s school shuts down and I have to stay home to care for my child if I’m not currently employed or I had to quit work because of my child care needs?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You may be eligible for unemployment benefits. An EDD representative will determine eligibility on a case-by-case basis by scheduling a phone interview with you.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Are benefits available if my employer reduces my hours or shuts down operations due to impacts of the coronavirus?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>If your employer reduced your hours or shut down operations due to COVID-19, you are encouraged to file a claim. Unemployment provides partial wage replacement to workers who lose their job or have their hours reduced, through no fault of their own. Workers who are temporarily unemployed due to COVID-19 and expected to return to work with their employer within a few weeks are not required to actively seek work each week. However, they must remain able, available and ready to work during their unemployment for each week of benefits claimed and meet all other eligibility criteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>How much can I collect in benefits with an unemployment insurance claim?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You can use the \u003ca href=\"https://www.edd.ca.gov/Unemployment/UI-Calculator.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unemployment insurance calculator\u003c/a> to help estimate your potential weekly benefit amount.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I still collect unemployment benefits if I am able to work remotely from home?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Working your full normal hours remotely would not qualify you for benefits. However, you could collect some benefits if your usual number of work hours are reduced through no fault of your own. The first $25 or 25% of your wages, whichever is the greater amount, is not counted as wages earned and will not be reduced from your weekly benefit amount. For example, if you earned $100 in a week, the department would not count $25 as wages and would only deduct $75 from your weekly benefit amount. For someone who has a weekly benefit amount of $450, they would be paid a reduced amount of $375.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I collect disability and unemployment benefits at the same time?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>You have the right to apply and file a claim for unemployment and disability benefits at the same time, but you can only collect payments under one benefit program at a time. The EDD encourages people to file a claim under one program based on your circumstances or file under both programs if you are unsure of which program is most appropriate. The department has said they will review the facts and determine eligibility for the appropriate program.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I start collecting disability benefits and then transition to an unemployment claim if my workplace operations continue to be impacted with a slowdown or shutdown?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Yes. If your employer shuts down operations or reduces hours for workers while you are on your disability claim, you may apply for unemployment benefits at that time. The EDD said they will help determine the start of your unemployment claim as long as you meet all other eligibility requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I start collecting unemployment benefits because I am laid off or have had my work hours reduced, and then switch to a disability claim if I become sick?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Yes. If you become sick while you are out of work, you can apply for a disability claim, which can provide a higher benefit amount if you’re eligible. A medical certification is required to substantiate your illness. If you are approved for a disability insurance claim, your unemployment claim will be suspended. If you recover but remain unemployed, you may then return to the remainder of your benefits as long as you remain out of work and are otherwise eligible. You will need to reapply to reopen your unemployment claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Can I start collecting unemployment benefits because I am laid off or have had my work hours reduced, and then switch to a Paid Family Leave claim if I have to care for a family member who is sick?\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Yes. If you have a family member who becomes sick while you are out of work, you can apply for a Paid Family Leave claim which can provide a higher benefit amount. A medical certification is required to prove your family member’s illness. If you are approved for a \u003ca href=\"https://www.edd.ca.gov/Disability/How_to_File_a_PFL_Claim_in_SDI_Online.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paid Family Leave\u003c/a> claim, your Unemployment Insurance (UI) claim will be suspended. If you complete your Paid Family Leave claim and remain unemployed, you may then return to the remainder of your unemployment benefits as long as you are out of work and eligible. You will need to reapply to reopen your unemployment claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Behind the scenes, the zoos continue to feed and care for their animals and maintain their grounds, but the lack of visitors has put a drastic hole in their budgets.

The governor said people may start off a gathering with good intentions, wearing face masks, but after a drink or two, might let their guard (as well as their masks) down — and begin to mix in ways that increase the transmission of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom urged Californians to continue adhering to social distancing protocols and wearing face coverings to limit the transmission of the disease. \"Wearing a face covering is a sign of toughness, of resolve, of someone who gives a damn,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Why did Newsom mention firework displays?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11827109\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11827109\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/fireworks.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/fireworks.jpg 1900w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/fireworks-800x539.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/fireworks-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/fireworks-160x108.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/fireworks-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fireworks displays are affected \u003ccite>(Suvan Chowdhury/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Newsom recommended that the 19 counties subject to mandatory closures also consider canceling July 4 fireworks displays, to limit large crowds that could increase transmission of the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if you're in the Bay Area, this hardly represents a change: Even if you feel like you're \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11825976\">hearing fireworks in your street\u003c/a> most nights, virtually all official firework displays in the Bay Area have already been canceled.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What if a business doesn't obey these new closure orders?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s order is a carrot and stick approach, and it comes with some teeth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor acknowledged that in a state of 40 million people, the order will be hard to enforce if people turn their backs on the guidelines. In response, the state has created multi-agency \"strike teams\" that will go after those who Newsom says are “thumbing their nose” at safety measures. State agencies included are the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control, the Barbers and Cosmetology Board, California Highway Patrol and Cal/OSHA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's more education. I'm not coming out with a fist,\" Newsom said, who spoke of wanting to recognize the \"magnitude\" of these modifications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mark Ghilarducci, director of California’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) said the strike teams will begin enforcing measures on July 1, with the authority to issue citations for noncompliance. The initial focus will be on the 19 counties on the watch list, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Wealth is power, we have the ability to withhold that power. We have the ability to withhold on labor, and shut shit down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don't want to just ask for things to get better.
