Gavin Newsom has been relaxing coronavirus restrictions as more people are getting vaccinated and the number of new cases declines. If things continue to improve, Newsom said he will lift all restrictions on June 15.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With companies preparing to resume normal operations, Democrats who control the Legislature said they wanted to make sure laid-off hospitality workers are first in line to get their old jobs back. \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SB93\">Senate Bill 93\u003c/a> requires hotels, private clubs and janitorial service companies to let their former employees know when their jobs are available again and give them five days to decide on whether they want to come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Legislature passed a similar bill last year.

"content": "\u003cp>Amid plummeting COVID-19 case rates and a major spike in vaccinations, California plans to lift most coronavirus restrictions on businesses and workplaces by June 15, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can confidently say by June 15 that we can start to open up business as as usual, subject to ongoing mask-wearing and ongoing vigilance,” Newsom said during a press conference at the City College of San Francisco Ocean Campus vaccination site. “So this is a big day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for that reopening plan to happen, he said, the vaccine supply has to be sufficient to accommodate everyone 16 and older who wants one, and hospitalization rates statewide must remain stable and low.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials, however, did not explain how they would assess those benchmarks or what would constitute a good trajectory. Both Newsom and Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly struggled at times Tuesday to explain the changes without adding caveats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new plan, businesses will be able to open with “common-sense risk-reduction measures” such as wearing masks and encouraging vaccinations, Ghaly said. Most capacity limits for businesses and recreational activities will be lifted, although larger indoor events, such as conventions, will be allowed only with testing or vaccination verification requirements, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Monica Gandhi, infectious disease expert and professor of medicine at UCSF, said California can begin reopening because many residents were exposed to the virus during the winter surge and many others are getting vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He wouldn’t have been able to keep it closed past June 15 anyway, because the cases would have been so low,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vaccine eligibility will expand to people in California ages 16 and older beginning April 15, although some counties have already started vaccinating young adults.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state has so far administered more than 20 million doses, including 4 million in the hardest-hit ZIP codes. More than \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11859829/see-how-many-people-got-the-covid-19-vaccine-in-your-county-so-far\">a third of residents in the state\u003c/a> — over 13.6 million people — have received at least one shot, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said he expects 30 million doses to be administered by the end of April, putting the state on track to inoculate most of the estimated 32 million people eligible to receive it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two-month advance notice should give people enough time to schedule their first dose, wait the recommended three to four weeks for a second shot and get through the two-week period for the vaccine to fully kick in, Ghaly said. It also gives businesses and other services ample time to prepare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement comes as states across the country have lifted health restrictions as more people get vaccinated, despite \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/nearly-half-us-coronavirus-infections-come-from-5-states-53888dc78894cc76cb1bb50f8300f102\">rising infection rates\u003c/a> in some places, new variants and concerns of another surge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California had some of the nation’s strictest pandemic rules in the country, becoming the first to institute a statewide stay-at-home order last spring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"coronavirus\"]Tuesday’s announcement signals a potential end date to more than a year of isolation. While many other states have pushed ahead, California has generally resisted reopening too quickly and, in several instances, has moved to reinstate restrictions to stem rising new cases and hospitalizations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the pandemic has taken its toll, killing more than 58,000 Californians, while shuttering scores of businesses and forcing millions of students to attend school remotely for much of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the short term, California’s vaccination progress means that counties can more easily shift to less-restrictive tiers, allowing them to increase capacity limits for various activities like indoor dining, shopping, worship services and sporting events. Every county in the Bay Area, except Solano County, has recently moved into the second-least restrictive orange tier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vaccine milestone also triggers a lower threshold for counties to enter the least-restrictive yellow tier: an adjusted rate of fewer than two new daily cases per 100,000 residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“San Francisco is currently in the orange tier, and fingers crossed governor, we’ll be in the yellow tier next week,” said Mayor London Breed during Tuesday’s announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new reopening plan comes as the first-term Democratic governor faces a likely recall election pushed by those critical of his handling of the pandemic. Many Republicans across the state and nation contend that political pressure, not vaccination progress, is driving Newsom’s decision to loosen restrictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It took millions of Californians signing a recall petition for him to finally begin reopening our state,” Kevin Faulconer, a former San Diego mayor and Republican who is hoping to replace Newsom, said in a statement Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joanna Rodriguez, a spokeswoman for the Republican Governors Association, called Newsom’s announcement “too little too late.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While Newsom continued to live by a different set of rules than those he mandated on everyone else,” she said, “his failed leadership wreaked havoc on the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, Tuesday’s announcement was welcome news to millions of people across the state, eager to resume their normal lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Rodriguez, owner and general manager of the Cadillac Bar & Grill in San Francisco’s near-empty downtown, can’t wait for customers to return for happy hour cocktails and for theaters to reopen to live audiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Everybody has something to look forward to now,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting from KQED’s Matthew Green, Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí, Guy Marzorati and The Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can confidently say by June 15 that we can start to open up business as as usual, subject to ongoing mask-wearing and ongoing vigilance,” Newsom said during a press conference at the City College of San Francisco Ocean Campus vaccination site. “So this is a big day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for that reopening plan to happen, he said, the vaccine supply has to be sufficient to accommodate everyone 16 and older who wants one, and hospitalization rates statewide must remain stable and low.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials, however, did not explain how they would assess those benchmarks or what would constitute a good trajectory. Both Newsom and Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly struggled at times Tuesday to explain the changes without adding caveats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new plan, businesses will be able to open with “common-sense risk-reduction measures” such as wearing masks and encouraging vaccinations, Ghaly said. Most capacity limits for businesses and recreational activities will be lifted, although larger indoor events, such as conventions, will be allowed only with testing or vaccination verification requirements, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While many other states have pushed ahead, California has generally resisted reopening too quickly and, in several instances, has moved to reinstate restrictions to stem rising new cases and hospitalizations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the pandemic has taken its toll, killing more than 58,000 Californians, while shuttering scores of businesses and forcing millions of students to attend school remotely for much of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the short term, California’s vaccination progress means that counties can more easily shift to less-restrictive tiers, allowing them to increase capacity limits for various activities like indoor dining, shopping, worship services and sporting events. Every county in the Bay Area, except Solano County, has recently moved into the second-least restrictive orange tier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vaccine milestone also triggers a lower threshold for counties to enter the least-restrictive yellow tier: an adjusted rate of fewer than two new daily cases per 100,000 residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“San Francisco is currently in the orange tier, and fingers crossed governor, we’ll be in the yellow tier next week,” said Mayor London Breed during Tuesday’s announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new reopening plan comes as the first-term Democratic governor faces a likely recall election pushed by those critical of his handling of the pandemic. Many Republicans across the state and nation contend that political pressure, not vaccination progress, is driving Newsom’s decision to loosen restrictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It took millions of Californians signing a recall petition for him to finally begin reopening our state,” Kevin Faulconer, a former San Diego mayor and Republican who is hoping to replace Newsom, said in a statement Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joanna Rodriguez, a spokeswoman for the Republican Governors Association, called Newsom’s announcement “too little too late.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While Newsom continued to live by a different set of rules than those he mandated on everyone else,” she said, “his failed leadership wreaked havoc on the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, Tuesday’s announcement was welcome news to millions of people across the state, eager to resume their normal lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Rodriguez, owner and general manager of the Cadillac Bar & Grill in San Francisco’s near-empty downtown, can’t wait for customers to return for happy hour cocktails and for theaters to reopen to live audiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Everybody has something to look forward to now,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting from KQED’s Matthew Green, Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí, Guy Marzorati and The Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Gavin Newsom from office faces early opposition from the state's electorate, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/publication/ppic-statewide-survey-californians-and-their-government-march-2021/?utm_source=ppic&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=epub\">survey released Tuesday by the Public Policy Institute of California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As election officials around the state review the voter signatures required to force a recall election, 56% of likely voters told the PPIC that they would vote against recalling Newsom, while 40% would vote to replace him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leaders of the recall campaign have expressed confidence that they have submitted far more than the 1,495,709 valid voter signatures that were required by March 17 to qualify an election. County officials are checking the signatures – an announcement on whether the recall has qualified could come in April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite voter anxiety over the COVID-19 pandemic and California's economy, Newsom's admitted missteps and the increasing likelihood of a historic recall election, the poll exposes the static nature of voter opinions toward the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, the 40% of likely voters willing to toss Newsom from office this year is about the same as the 38% who voted against him in 2018. And the 53% of likely voters who approve of his job performance in this survey is nearly identical to his pre-pandemic level of approval, measured at 52% of likely voters in February 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while backers of the bid to replace Newsom have \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11866630/randy-economy-on-the-campaign-to-recall-governor-gavin-newsom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">touted the bipartisan bona fides\u003c/a> of their effort, the PPIC survey shows a stark divide in the feelings of California Democrats and Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Most importantly, Gov. Newsom enjoys overwhelming support among Democratic likely voters, and that's something that he has maintained in the last year,\" said Mark Baldassare, president and CEO of the PPIC. \"That is really his base and they've remained consistently with him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just 15% of likely Democratic voters support the recall, compared with 79% of Republicans. And only 4% of voters who approve of Newsom's performance (and 11% of voters who approve of President Biden) would vote to remove Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"California voters are very divided politically and they very strongly take sides based on their partisanship,\" Baldassare added. \"For Newsom, the strong support that he has among Democrats today means a lot to his political survival this year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The survey, conducted between March 14 and 23, presents a very different political landscape than former Gov. Gray Davis faced at the onset of the successful campaign to recall him from office in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Politics Coverage' tag='politics']PPIC surveys released throughout that year showed a consistent majority of voters supporting the recall, while disapproval of Davis' performance hovered around 75%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis and Newsom are \"worlds apart\" at this stage of the recall campaign, Baldassare said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The biggest difference is among Democrats,\" he said. \"There were more Democrats who were willing to go along with the recall election because they disapproved [of Davis], and Newsom does not have those circumstances.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldassare said that the Newsom administration's response to the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to influence how voters view the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Coronavirus response was the top issue for the electorate in the PPIC's January survey, and now 79% of likely voters responded that \"the worst is behind us\" in the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And after a rocky rollout of vaccinations in California, voter perceptions have improved: While fewer than half of likely voters (45%), say the state is doing an excellent or good job with distribution, that number is up from the 28% who gave Newsom and his administration high marks in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Gavin Newsom from office faces early opposition from the state's electorate, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/publication/ppic-statewide-survey-californians-and-their-government-march-2021/?utm_source=ppic&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=epub\">survey released Tuesday by the Public Policy Institute of California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As election officials around the state review the voter signatures required to force a recall election, 56% of likely voters told the PPIC that they would vote against recalling Newsom, while 40% would vote to replace him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leaders of the recall campaign have expressed confidence that they have submitted far more than the 1,495,709 valid voter signatures that were required by March 17 to qualify an election. County officials are checking the signatures – an announcement on whether the recall has qualified could come in April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite voter anxiety over the COVID-19 pandemic and California's economy, Newsom's admitted missteps and the increasing likelihood of a historic recall election, the poll exposes the static nature of voter opinions toward the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, the 40% of likely voters willing to toss Newsom from office this year is about the same as the 38% who voted against him in 2018. And the 53% of likely voters who approve of his job performance in this survey is nearly identical to his pre-pandemic level of approval, measured at 52% of likely voters in February 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while backers of the bid to replace Newsom have \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11866630/randy-economy-on-the-campaign-to-recall-governor-gavin-newsom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">touted the bipartisan bona fides\u003c/a> of their effort, the PPIC survey shows a stark divide in the feelings of California Democrats and Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Most importantly, Gov. Newsom enjoys overwhelming support among Democratic likely voters, and that's something that he has maintained in the last year,\" said Mark Baldassare, president and CEO of the PPIC. \"That is really his base and they've remained consistently with him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And only 4% of voters who approve of Newsom's performance (and 11% of voters who approve of President Biden) would vote to remove Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"California voters are very divided politically and they very strongly take sides based on their partisanship,\" Baldassare added. \"For Newsom, the strong support that he has among Democrats today means a lot to his political survival this year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The survey, conducted between March 14 and 23, presents a very different political landscape than former Gov. Gray Davis faced at the onset of the successful campaign to recall him from office in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom has made improving the state’s technology and increasing innovation a big focus: In 2019, he created the Office of Digital Innovation and signed an executive order implementing a new method for choosing which vendors and programs to upgrade the state’s aging technology infrastructure. Amy Tong, California’s chief information officer and director of the Department of Technology, said the state used to have their priorities backward — they’d tell vendors what their department needed, and how they should get there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, California is telling vendors what \u003cem>problem it needs solved\u003c/em> and asking vendors to not only provide solutions, but show proof that their solution is the best one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Tell me what idea you can bring forward in solving that and demonstrate to me how you would solve that,” Tong said. “So that’s a two-step process that we have implemented.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change is needed according to Assemblymember David Chiu, D-San Francisco. He said the state generally does a poor job managing \u003ca href=\"https://cdt.ca.gov/policy/it-project-tracking/\">IT modernization projects\u003c/a>. Chiu has served on the Assembly Budget Committee for six years. He said efforts to modernize these systems tend to go off the rails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As legislators, we are often asked to approve tens of millions of dollars, if not hundreds of millions of dollars on top of budgets that have been blown, projects that are years behind in being completed,” he said.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Amy Tong, CA Chief Information Officer and Director of the Department of Technology\"]‘We’re not saying, ‘Oh, not our problem.’ We own it, we fix it, we keep moving.

That effort started in 2005 with a six-year timeline and a $138 million budget. The cost has since ballooned to around $1 billion and the deadline has been pushed to 2022 as the scope of the project has gradually increased.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chiu said lawmakers are often put in tough positions when dealing with half-done projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From my perspective, the Legislature generally acquiesces to the incremental budget requests where we continue to throw good money after bad,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s long history of bungling IT projects means a lot of legislators remain skeptical about whether the state can get these projects right. Tong knows that’s what she’s up against and said the state has become a lot more transparent about its challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re out front,” Tong said. “We’re not saying, ‘Oh, not our problem.’ We own it, we fix it, we keep moving. That is a culture shift.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tong said the cost of recent IT projects has been smaller compared with projects in the past. The California Department of Technology’s \u003ca href=\"https://cdt.ca.gov/policy/it-project-tracking/\">project tracker page\u003c/a> shows a number of IT efforts coming in at under $20 million, though there are also several costing hundreds of millions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department has laid out its goals in its \u003ca href=\"https://vision2023.cdt.ca.gov/\">Vision 2023\u003c/a> strategic plan, which includes delivering fast and secure public services and making common technology easy to use across government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state is also trying to shift how it approaches massive system upgrades. Some of its largest agencies are running on technology that’s decades old and specifically tailored to the agency that’s using it. Tong said that makes overhauling an entire system all at once impractical. So the state is taking a different approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11860924\" label=\"More on EDD's Problems\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No more big rip and replace of a big system, because when you do that, imagine the retraining, the reprocessing, it’s just awful,” she said. “So rather than do that, let’s take a look at the big things you need to do, but do it in a more modular manner. And then you can do a lot quicker.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Metzker, senior fiscal and policy analyst with the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office, said the new method of asking for input from vendors and requiring them to demonstrate how their ideas work could help the state understand what its needs are and how different vendors could meet them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But I don’t think that there has been, necessarily, a good example of a legacy system being modernized that really is transformative yet,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state could have a case study in how to fix an ailing department computer system soon from the Department of Motor Vehicles. The DMV has been plagued by \u003ca href=\"https://esd.dof.ca.gov/reports/reportPdf/C87E0788-C250-E911-9105-00505685B5D1/California%20Department%20of%20Motor%20Vehicles%20Performance%20Audit%20March%202019\">long wait times and system outages\u003c/a>, caused in part by outdated technology. DMV Director Steve Gordon said the agency has just begun the process of updating its computer system using the new proof-of-concept method.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re just starting on the road, but it’s going to be a three- to five-year journey,” Gordon said. “We’re doing our first module, hopefully this calendar year, and then we’re going to be doing successive modules. And then at the end of it, hopefully, all the DMV will be on a new platform.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a project a lot of people will likely be watching closely to see whether this latest approach helps bring California into the future, or ends in another expensive IT mess.\u003c/p>\n\n",
