"content": "\u003cp>California regulators on Thursday suspended a $200 million fine against PG&E as punishment for the utility's neglect of electrical equipment that ignited a series of deadly wildfires in Northern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The waiver approved in a unanimous vote by California's Public Utilities Commission will deprive state coffers of money to help offset losses from income and sales taxes as the coronavirus pandemic pushes the state into a $54 billion budget deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E resisted the fine on the grounds that it would threaten its ability to raise the tens of billions of dollars needed to finance its complex plan to emerge from bankruptcy by a June 30 deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regulators backed down, despite a warning from the the commission's public advocates office that letting PG&E get away without paying the $200 million would set a troubling precedent that could lead to more problems in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Rather than motivating PG&E to improve its abysmal safety record, a permanently suspended fine would encourage PG&E to devise future stratagems to avoid penalties,\" the public advocate said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move reverses a February decision by an administrative law judge who \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11804048/pge-fined-2-1-billion-for-wildfires-largest-amount-in-california-history\">determined the $200 million fine was justified\u003c/a> in light of the devastation caused by PG&E's misconduct. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission blamed PG&E's fraying electrical grid for causing 15 wildfires that killed more than 100 people and destroyed more than 25,000 homes and other buildings in 2017 and 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The staggering losses of life and property drove PG&E into bankruptcy early last year. The San Francisco company is now scrambling to get out of bankruptcy before July so it can qualify for coverage from a wildfire insurance fund that California created last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although PG&E will no longer have to pay any money into California's general fund, it's still being punished by regulators in the form of nearly $1.9 billion that it won't be able to collect through higher electricity rates and other fees passed on to the roughly 16 million people who rely on PG&E – the nation's largest utility – for power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regulators also are restricting some of the $425 million in tax savings the utility may realize from the $1.9 billion penalty, requiring it to be passed along to customers instead of funneled to its shareholders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='pge']Clifford Rechtschaffen, the commissioner who recommended suspending the $200 million fine, acknowledged that waiving the penalty was \"deeply dissatisfying.\" But he said it was justified because of the extraordinary circumstances caused by the COVID-19 outbreak rattling the stock market. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The turbulence could make it more difficult for PG&E to raise money it needs to pay $25.5 billion in bankruptcy settlements, including a $13.5 billion fund set up for wildfire victims. Rechtschaffen concluded the $200 million fine would either risk siphoning money away from the victims or prevent PG&E from getting out of bankruptcy. PG&E previously drew controversy by arguing the $200 million fine should be paid out of the victims' fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before voting to suspend the fine, Rechtschaffen lashed out at PG&E for contending the penalty was unjustified at the same time it was negotiating an agreement to plead guilty to 84 felony counts of involuntary manslaughter stemming from 2018's Camp Fire, a wildfire sparked by PG&E equipment which nearly destroyed the town of Paradise. PG&E is paying a $4 million fine in Butte County for those crimes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing PG&E's admission of guilt for the Butte County fire, Rechtschaffen called PG&E's appeal of the $200 million fine \"deeply disappointing\" and \"disingenuous.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E had no comment on Rechtschaffen's rebuke but said it remains \"deeply sorry\" for causing the wildfires. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We share the same objectives as the commission and other state leaders — namely in reducing the risk of wildfire in our communities, even in a rapidly changing environment,\" the company said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The CPUC basically let P&GE off the hook for the most severe violations imaginable, violations leading to the avoidable deaths of 126 people,\" wrote Mark Toney, executive director of the Utility Reform Network. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For the Commission to cave in to PG&E's demands for a free pass not only sends the wrong message to the company, it sends the wrong message to the public the CPUC is supposed to protect.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite avoiding the $200 million payment to the state of California, PG&E has continued to run up legal bills and other bankruptcy costs that are expected to exceed $1.6 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To get out of bankruptcy, PG&E needs the approval of a federal judge and state regulators. Before voting to suspend the fine, the commission heard more than an hour of public comments mostly objecting to perceived shortcomings in PG&E's bankruptcy plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They contend PG&E isn't doing enough to protect its customers from life-threatening hazards and deliberate blackouts for the next several years to reduce wildfire risks during hot and windy conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Public Utilities Commission is scheduled to vote on PG&E's bankruptcy plan May 21.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Lily Jamali contributed to this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Rechtschaffen concluded the $200 million fine would either risk siphoning money away from the victims or prevent PG&E from getting out of bankruptcy. PG&E previously drew controversy by arguing the $200 million fine should be paid out of the victims' fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before voting to suspend the fine, Rechtschaffen lashed out at PG&E for contending the penalty was unjustified at the same time it was negotiating an agreement to plead guilty to 84 felony counts of involuntary manslaughter stemming from 2018's Camp Fire, a wildfire sparked by PG&E equipment which nearly destroyed the town of Paradise. PG&E is paying a $4 million fine in Butte County for those crimes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing PG&E's admission of guilt for the Butte County fire, Rechtschaffen called PG&E's appeal of the $200 million fine \"deeply disappointing\" and \"disingenuous.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E had no comment on Rechtschaffen's rebuke but said it remains \"deeply sorry\" for causing the wildfires. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We share the same objectives as the commission and other state leaders — namely in reducing the risk of wildfire in our communities, even in a rapidly changing environment,\" the company said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The CPUC basically let P&GE off the hook for the most severe violations imaginable, violations leading to the avoidable deaths of 126 people,\" wrote Mark Toney, executive director of the Utility Reform Network. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For the Commission to cave in to PG&E's demands for a free pass not only sends the wrong message to the company, it sends the wrong message to the public the CPUC is supposed to protect.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite avoiding the $200 million payment to the state of California, PG&E has continued to run up legal bills and other bankruptcy costs that are expected to exceed $1.6 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To get out of bankruptcy, PG&E needs the approval of a federal judge and state regulators. Before voting to suspend the fine, the commission heard more than an hour of public comments mostly objecting to perceived shortcomings in PG&E's bankruptcy plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They contend PG&E isn't doing enough to protect its customers from life-threatening hazards and deliberate blackouts for the next several years to reduce wildfire risks during hot and windy conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Public Utilities Commission is scheduled to vote on PG&E's bankruptcy plan May 21.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Lily Jamali contributed to this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

He was exonerated and walked free in Sacramento on March 13, 2020 — just days before Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a statewide shelter-in-place order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m happy to be home, absolutely,” Puckett said. “But there’s really not too much I can do out here because of this shelter in place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puckett was arrested and charged with a murder robbery and sentenced to life without the possibility of parole in 2002. But over the course of the past six years, the \u003ca href=\"http://ncip.org\">Northern California Innocence Project\u003c/a> helped expose \u003ca href=\"http://ncip.org/jeremy-puckett/\">numerous problems\u003c/a> with Puckett’s prosecution that were never presented to the jury — including an alibi, a recantation from the perpetrator who originally implicated Puckett and significant evidence that included 700 pages of materials the government withheld from him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although happy to be home with his family in Sacramento, Puckett has entered a much different world than he’d envisioned just months ago. The coronavirus has posed unforeseen challenges — both for him and the many people he knows who are still behind bars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve been dealing with problems with getting my Social Security card, my California’s driver’s license and ID as well,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But mostly, Puckett said he’s concerned for the safety of people who are still on the inside, including his son, who’s been quarantined in county jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Jeremy Puckett\"]‘I’d much rather be out here dealing with this situation than dealing with it in there.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The quarantine was a precautionary measure after his son’s cellmate came down with a fever, but Puckett is worried because he hasn’t heard from him in more than a week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puckett said he keeps in touch with friends still in prison, some of whom have shared a variety of concerns — from losing access to law libraries that are critical to incarcerated people fighting their own court cases, to seeing some guards not wearing masks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re incarcerated, you’re basically sitting in a box,” Puckett said. “There’s only so much you can do, so you know, you’re more worried about what’s coming in than what’s going out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Incarcerated people are \u003ca href=\"https://www.themarshallproject.org/2020/03/19/this-chart-shows-why-the-prison-population-is-so-vulnerable-to-covid-19\">particularly vulnerable during this pandemic\u003c/a>, and new safety measures have also limited the support they’re able to receive. In the California state prison system, for instance, all visitors, volunteers and rehabilitative program providers have been suspended since mid-March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Puckett, the timing of his release has been bittersweet, but he’s grateful to be able to spend extra time with his sister and daughter at their home in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mean, it’s good and it’s bad, so I take it as it is,” he said. “But I’d much rather be out here dealing with this situation than dealing with it in there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puckett said there are ways to make a positive impact in the lives of incarcerated people despite safety restrictions, such as writing to them or donating to organizations that are continuing to do critical work, like the\u003ca href=\"http://ncip.org\"> Innocence Project\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is a list of ways you can help incarcerated people during the pandemic:\u003cbr>\n\u003ca id=\"1\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#2\">Give Money Directly\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#3\">Help People Post Bail\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#4\">Donate to Organizations Helping Incarcerated Individuals\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#5\">Send a Message of Encouragement\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#6\">Support Those Coming Out of Jail or Prison\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.themarshallproject.org/?ref=nav\">The Marshall Project\u003c/a>, a nonprofit news organization focused on criminal justice, created \u003ca href=\"https://www.themarshallproject.org/2020/05/05/covid-19-a-survival-guide-for-incarcerated-people\">a survival guide for incarcerated people \u003c/a>that gives advice for how they can protect themselves while in jail or prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"2\">\u003c/a>Give Money Directly\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://restorecal.org/?fbclid=IwAR3jbwbIfcugrMIhkT_xMFaeupszlAlZVxbF75wIuugS6hNAPOHW4oOhHOA\">Restore Justice\u003c/a>, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit organization for criminal justice reform, organized \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/823371021475580/about/\">a Facebook group\u003c/a> to help people find incarcerated individuals who need money for commissary items such as food, or hygiene products like soap and toothpaste.

Gavin Newsom acknowledged the building anxiety while repeatedly teasing the possibility the state could begin relaxing some aspects of the restrictions next week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are all impatient,” the governor said during his daily briefing, adding, “We have to be really deliberative on how we reopen this economy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom noted the state just passed the grim marks of 50,000 confirmed infections and 2,000 deaths, but that hospitalization statistics are heading in a better direction and that has him hopeful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can screw all that up. We can set all that back by making bad decisions,” he said. “All of that works because people have done an incredible job in their physical distancing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Sacramento, as police lined steps outside the Capitol, protesters waved signs that said “Defend Freedom” and broke into “U-S-A” chants, most eschewing face masks. A small plane circled overhead, displaying a banner carrying an image of Newsom’s face and the slogan, “End his tyranny.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brad Mills from Clovis, in Fresno County, said the lockdown is doing more damage. “I’m not of the opinion that COVID-19 is a hoax, that it’s not real. I think that it’s a legitimate threat. But not every county needs to be treated the same.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chrissy Helmer, who owns a small retail store in Vacaville said it's time for people to get back to work. \"Everyone is struggling. We have payroll to pay. We have rent to pay. We haven't seen any government assistance.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sindy Harris, who lives in Benicia said the state should be focused on loosening restrictions, not tightening them. \"My husband and I were scolded by my city for picking up trash on a road that was filthy. And yet people can go to Walmart and Target, and every place else and stand with a cart together?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were about a dozen organized rallies in cities including Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco. [aside tag=\"coronavirus\" label=\"More Coronavirus Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Modoc County — near the Oregon border and home to about 9,000 people, became the first to defy the state’s shutdown orders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county is “moving forward with our reopening plan,” said Heather Hadwick, the county’s deputy director of emergency services, who added that the county has no reported COVID-19 cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hadwick said the county had not heard from the governor about its reopening plan, but she asserted it aligns with Newsom’s indicators for reopening. Schools were not opening Friday, but it was an option for districts that can accommodate preventative measures, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are utilizing his guidance of those plans, and we have zero cases,” she wrote. “Our residents were moving forward with or without us. We really needed to create guidelines for them so that they could do this in the safest way possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Country Hearth Restaurant and Bakery in the small town of Cedarville, three customers came in for breakfast, general manager Janet Irene said. She said her regular customers had been very cooperative with orders that had allowed her to only serve takeout since March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since we’re a sit-down restaurant, people were constantly asking to be able to sit in the restaurant, and it was really, really difficult during this time to deny that,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county had notified Newsom of its plans and never heard back from him. His office did not respond to a request for comment Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elsewhere, a variety of businesses from restaurants to hairstylists in rural and more populated areas have opened their doors in individual acts of defiance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The moves underscore Newsom’s challenge as the state enters its seventh week under stay-at-home orders, with only businesses deemed essential allowed to operate. Gyms, bars, shopping malls, restaurant dining rooms and sports arenas all remain shuttered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom hinted that change was coming soon. He has previously outlined a phased approach in which the economy would gradually return to normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But at the same time he warned of troubling signs, including a lack of testing in rural areas that might be concealing a lurking threat from the virus. He recognized the right of residents to protest, saying he welcomed diverse viewpoints, but also warned that crowding posed a health threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom also confirmed the obvious: With its once-roaring economy in shackles and millions jobless, the state will face a funding shortfall that will run into billions of dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Billions in surplus, in just weeks, tens of billions of deficit,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police across the state appear to have taken a largely hands-off approach with protesters, despite the fact they were violating stay-at-home requirements and not following physical distancing recommendations. The fear is the virus can be spread in close quarters by people who don’t known they’ve contracted it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press reporters Amy Taxin in Huntington Beach, Kathleen Ronayne and Cuneyt Dil in Sacramento, John Antczak and Stephanie Dazio in Los Angeles, Olga R.

Schools were not opening Friday, but it was an option for districts that can accommodate preventative measures, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are utilizing his guidance of those plans, and we have zero cases,” she wrote. “Our residents were moving forward with or without us. We really needed to create guidelines for them so that they could do this in the safest way possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Country Hearth Restaurant and Bakery in the small town of Cedarville, three customers came in for breakfast, general manager Janet Irene said. She said her regular customers had been very cooperative with orders that had allowed her to only serve takeout since March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since we’re a sit-down restaurant, people were constantly asking to be able to sit in the restaurant, and it was really, really difficult during this time to deny that,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county had notified Newsom of its plans and never heard back from him. His office did not respond to a request for comment Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elsewhere, a variety of businesses from restaurants to hairstylists in rural and more populated areas have opened their doors in individual acts of defiance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The moves underscore Newsom’s challenge as the state enters its seventh week under stay-at-home orders, with only businesses deemed essential allowed to operate. Gyms, bars, shopping malls, restaurant dining rooms and sports arenas all remain shuttered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom hinted that change was coming soon. He has previously outlined a phased approach in which the economy would gradually return to normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But at the same time he warned of troubling signs, including a lack of testing in rural areas that might be concealing a lurking threat from the virus. He recognized the right of residents to protest, saying he welcomed diverse viewpoints, but also warned that crowding posed a health threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom also confirmed the obvious: With its once-roaring economy in shackles and millions jobless, the state will face a funding shortfall that will run into billions of dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Billions in surplus, in just weeks, tens of billions of deficit,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police across the state appear to have taken a largely hands-off approach with protesters, despite the fact they were violating stay-at-home requirements and not following physical distancing recommendations. The fear is the virus can be spread in close quarters by people who don’t known they’ve contracted it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press reporters Amy Taxin in Huntington Beach, Kathleen Ronayne and Cuneyt Dil in Sacramento, John Antczak and Stephanie Dazio in Los Angeles, Olga R.

"content": "\u003cp>Heather Heckler was counting on buying census ads in four weekly newspapers that have long served Plumas County, located in the northern Sierra Nevada. As communications manager for Connecting Point, a public agency that received state funding, she hoped to boost the county’s census participation rate, which was tracking below half the statewide average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then the Feather Publishing Company called to announce it was \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/commentary/coronavirus-pandemic-claims-a-communal-lifeline-153-year-old-feather-river-bulletin/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">halting publication\u003c/a> as the coronavirus pandemic gutted revenues. “That was a huge gut punch,” Heckler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, she’s at a loss for getting people’s attention: “I think the census is very important, but it’s not top of mind for a lot of people at this moment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One month into the decennial population count, the statewide response rate is off more than 10% from the final 2010 count. Even with extensions, there’s a possibility for a record low turnout. In some counties, as few as one in 10 households have completed the survey. And since the coronavirus upended much of the state’s door-to-door canvassing effort, there aren’t any plans for a headcount of people experiencing homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long before the outbreak, state and local officials were wringing their hands about a potential \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/california-census-2020-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California undercount\u003c/a> as the president’s political rhetoric stoked fear in the state’s sizable \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/california-population-migration-census-demographics-immigration/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">immigrant population\u003c/a>. Now it turns out the deadly coronavirus could single-handedly sink the state’s \u003ca href=\"https://census.ca.gov/about/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$187 million\u003c/a> census campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Redistricting in Jeopardy\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>With each mile marker missed by the census, state lawmakers grow anxious about what comes after the count. California’s independent \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2019/10/california-trouble-filling-citizen-redistricting-commission-gerrymandering/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">redistricting commission\u003c/a> is required to take public input before drawing new state and federal voting districts next year. But given how much the federal government pushed back deadlines, it may leave insufficient time for the public to vet new district lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even if you had a super computer that could spit out maps in two weeks, you can’t do that,” said state Sen. Tom Umberg, a Santa Ana Democrat and the co-chair of the Senate’s select committee on the census.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Umberg said lawmakers may need to place a redistricting extension on the November ballot. If approved, the new deadline could bump up against the election cycle. In that case, it’s conceivable candidates could be out campaigning before they find out who they will represent come Election Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now as it currently exists, the redistricting maps won’t be final until after the candidacy period opens,” Umberg said. “So in other words, candidates will be potentially running in districts that haven’t been finalized yet, which could create a huge amount of chaos.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>California Went Big on Census Spending\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Nearly all states are struggling with \u003ca href=\"https://2020census.gov/en/response-rates.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">low response rates due to coronavirus restrictions\u003c/a>, but none have arguably invested as much as \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/immigration/2020/03/california-coronavirus-census-undercount-citizenship-question/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom and lawmakers injected the state’s census office with a big budget and tasked the staff with coaxing reluctant and apathetic residents to answer \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/technical-documentation/questionnaires/2020.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nine questions\u003c/a> about their households. Through media campaigns and community partnerships, the goal was to get to those hard-to-reach communities prone to \u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/publication/californians-and-the-2020-census/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">historical undercounts\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while the state is doing better than New Mexico and West Virginia, it only marginally leads others that didn’t invest nearly as much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of this week, the Golden State has a 54.6% response rate, which is slightly better than the national average — but well short of California’s 68.2% response rate in 2010. Without course correction, the 2020 census could yield one of the lowest returns in recent memory.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Agencies Offer Conflicting Outlooks\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Despite low participation and a number of delays, federal officials remain upbeat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From my perspective, we’re on track,” said Jeffrey Enos, a deputy regional director with the U.S. Census Bureau. “We’ve had to make adjustments due to the pandemic. I’m confident this will be a successful and accurate census.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State census officials don’t share their federal counterpart’s optimism, noting that ever-changing deadlines create bottlenecks for workers on the ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are working within their timeline,” said Diana Crofts-Pelayo, a spokesperson for California Complete Count. “There are still a lot of unanswered questions for us to ensure that we can pivot accordingly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Uncertainty Hinders the Count\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The federal government had originally scheduled a count of people who are experiencing \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-homelessness-crisis-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homelessness\u003c/a> and living outdoors for March 30. After two delays, the Census Bureau has yet to set a new date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency also delayed outreach for people with P.O. boxes and addresses that can’t be verified.

As communications manager for Connecting Point, a public agency that received state funding, she hoped to boost the county’s census participation rate, which was tracking below half the statewide average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then the Feather Publishing Company called to announce it was \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/commentary/coronavirus-pandemic-claims-a-communal-lifeline-153-year-old-feather-river-bulletin/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">halting publication\u003c/a> as the coronavirus pandemic gutted revenues. “That was a huge gut punch,” Heckler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, she’s at a loss for getting people’s attention: “I think the census is very important, but it’s not top of mind for a lot of people at this moment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One month into the decennial population count, the statewide response rate is off more than 10% from the final 2010 count. Even with extensions, there’s a possibility for a record low turnout. In some counties, as few as one in 10 households have completed the survey. And since the coronavirus upended much of the state’s door-to-door canvassing effort, there aren’t any plans for a headcount of people experiencing homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long before the outbreak, state and local officials were wringing their hands about a potential \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/california-census-2020-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California undercount\u003c/a> as the president’s political rhetoric stoked fear in the state’s sizable \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/california-population-migration-census-demographics-immigration/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">immigrant population\u003c/a>.

Tom Umberg, a Santa Ana Democrat and the co-chair of the Senate’s select committee on the census.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Umberg said lawmakers may need to place a redistricting extension on the November ballot. If approved, the new deadline could bump up against the election cycle. In that case, it’s conceivable candidates could be out campaigning before they find out who they will represent come Election Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now as it currently exists, the redistricting maps won’t be final until after the candidacy period opens,” Umberg said. “So in other words, candidates will be potentially running in districts that haven’t been finalized yet, which could create a huge amount of chaos.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>California Went Big on Census Spending\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Nearly all states are struggling with \u003ca href=\"https://2020census.gov/en/response-rates.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">low response rates due to coronavirus restrictions\u003c/a>, but none have arguably invested as much as \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/immigration/2020/03/california-coronavirus-census-undercount-citizenship-question/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom and lawmakers injected the state’s census office with a big budget and tasked the staff with coaxing reluctant and apathetic residents to answer \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/technical-documentation/questionnaires/2020.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nine questions\u003c/a> about their households.

Without course correction, the 2020 census could yield one of the lowest returns in recent memory.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Agencies Offer Conflicting Outlooks\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Despite low participation and a number of delays, federal officials remain upbeat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From my perspective, we’re on track,” said Jeffrey Enos, a deputy regional director with the U.S. Census Bureau. “We’ve had to make adjustments due to the pandemic. I’m confident this will be a successful and accurate census.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State census officials don’t share their federal counterpart’s optimism, noting that ever-changing deadlines create bottlenecks for workers on the ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are working within their timeline,” said Diana Crofts-Pelayo, a spokesperson for California Complete Count. “There are still a lot of unanswered questions for us to ensure that we can pivot accordingly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Uncertainty Hinders the Count\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The federal government had originally scheduled a count of people who are experiencing \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-homelessness-crisis-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homelessness\u003c/a> and living outdoors for March 30. After two delays, the Census Bureau has yet to set a new date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency also delayed outreach for people with P.O. boxes and addresses that can’t be verified.
