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.",

When lawmakers passed \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/blogs/california-election-2020/2019/11/california-trump-tax-return-law-struck-down/\">a bill requiring President Trump\u003c/a> to publish his taxes in order to appear on the ballot, it was Dhillon, the Republican Party’s national committeewoman from California, who filed suit on behalf of the California GOP. Last year, she \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/blogs/california-election-2020/2019/10/california-trump-taxes-illegal-votes-fraud-tax-return-conservatives-lawsuit/\">sued Secretary of State Alex Padilla\u003c/a> for, she argued, failing to do enough to exclude non-citizens from county voter rolls. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along the way, Dhillon has cobbled together a small phalanx of California Republicans to help her wage war against the liberal powers that be. Mark Meuser, who ran for secretary of state in 2018 on an anti-voter-fraud plank, is on her team. In a handful of the pandemic-era cases she’s joined by Bill Essayli — a young former prosecutor \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/blogs/2018/05/im-not-running-for-president-how-the-california-republican-party-tries-to-put-on-a-new-face-in-the-era-of-trump/\">who unsuccessfully ran for Assembly\u003c/a> in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"More Coronavirus Coverage\" tag=\"coronavirus\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when she isn’t suing the state, Dhillon’s name has a way of popping up whenever a new culture war flashpoint breaks out in California. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recall when software engineer James Damore sued Google after being fired for \u003ca href=\"https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3914586/Googles-Ideological-Echo-Chamber.pdf\">circulating a memo\u003c/a> asserting that the underrepresentation of women in tech had a biological basis?

Or the Trump supporters in San Jose who got roughed up by counter protesters and then \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/Trump-fans-assaulted-outside-San-Jose-rally-sue-8378730.php\">sued the police\u003c/a>? Or the Orange County \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2019/11/abortion-law-california-settlement-nifla-becerra-daleiden-sekulow/\">anti-abortion activist\u003c/a> who sued a \u003ca href=\"http://www.centerformedicalprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/DaleidenCMPvGinde.pdf\">former Planned Parenthood doctor\u003c/a> for badmouthing him during a TEDx talk?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dhillon is the plaintiffs’ lawyer in each of these cases. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dhillon is in fact a regular on the conservative media circuit. She’s a contributor to Fox News and a frequent guest on that network’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” and the “Ingraham Angle,” whose host, Laura Ingraham, Dhillon has cited as a “\u003ca href=\"https://www.dailysignal.com/2020/03/19/problematic-women-ladies-know-your-first-amendment-rights/\">long-time mentor\u003c/a>.” At the Conservative Political Action Conference last year, Dhillon earned what might be the most coveted of all endorsements on the American right: “She’s a great lawyer,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4783817/user-clip-donald-trump-hayden-williams-cpac-speech&fbclid=IwAR3JAUiQUeswjWY2e9tuV8-ruobH2fb6lz4BbBoqz274XayhQAwVgaelkzc\">President Trump said to Hayden Williams\u003c/a>, a conservative activist who was physically assaulted on UC Berkeley’s campus. “Sue the college, the university, and maybe sue the state.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She hasn’t. “Not yet,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Born in India, Dhillon grew up in North Carolina before going to Dartmouth College where, like many members of the American right’s intelligentsia, she edited the Dartmouth Review. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After going to the University of Virginia law school and working at various firms in New York and London, she opened her own office in San Francisco in 2006. Though her views have skewed right all her life, with a practice in the Bay Area, she has not always seamlessly fit in with the rest of her party. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the one, there’s the fact that she is a Sikh woman of color in a party dominated by white men. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the height of the War on Terror, she sat on the board of the American Civil Liberties Union’s Northern California chapter, to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/politics/joegarofoli/article/S-F-GOP-leader-slammed-by-Republicans-4254447.php\">chagrin of some GOP stalwarts\u003c/a>. When she ran for state Senate in San Francisco in 2012, she \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/politics/article/Republicans-seek-inroads-in-liberal-San-Francisco-3416932.php\">made an effort\u003c/a> to steer clear of incendiary social issues like abortion. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You don’t hear much aversion to controversy from her these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, more shutdown lawsuits against Newsom may soon be on the way. Dhillon said her office has been inundated with requests from potential clients. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have some quality control. We don’t just crank these out like sausages, even if it seems that way.” she said. “People are getting fed up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Harmeet Dhillon, lawyer\"]‘We have some quality control. We don’t just crank these out like sausages, even if it seems that way.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the cases brought by Dhillon are paid for by a nonprofit she founded, the Center for American Liberty. Dhillon said her law office is one of many hired by the center and that her office in turn works with other clients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Funding for the center, which pays for her office’s legal services, comes from individual donors whose contributions to the nonprofit are tax exempt. Dhillon said that she is probably the top donor and that “more than 50 percent” of the center’s money comes from her seed funding and three other major donors, whom she would not name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Filings with the IRS show that the center, under its prior name Publius Lex, received less than $50,000 in contributions in 2018 and was therefore not required to itemize its contributors. The filing for 2019 has not yet been made available. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the pandemic began, Dhillon said that the nonprofit has received tens of thousands of dollars in donations, but that the legal bill incurred by repeatedly suing the state “significantly exceeds” that figure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I haven’t been paid a penny for these cases yet,” she insisted. “I’m not sure I will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the lawsuits filed against California’s shelter-in-place order are funded in part by conservative-leaning nonprofits. One of the challenges to Gov. Newsom’s allocation of state funds to undocumented immigrants is supported by Judicial Watch, Inc., a longtime legal antagonist of Bill and Hillary Clinton, which recently sued the U.S. Department of Justice for information regarding ties between former Vice President Joe Biden and Ukraine. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other nonprofit backers of the cases filed against California include the National Center for Law & Policy, which made headlines in 2015 when it sued the Escondido public school district for treating its students as “religious ‘guinea pigs” by \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-yoga-legal-fight-20150612-story.html\">subjecting them to yoga classes\u003c/a>, and Freedom X, a Los Angeles-based organization that lists combating “intellectual McCarthyism” and “creeping Sharia” as its main campaigns. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuits against California’s shelter-in-place orders are only just beginning to wind their way through the legal system. As both the state and counties begin to relax their various shelter-in-place orders, the complaints may be irrelevant before they reach a judicial conclusion. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But none have had much luck so far. Of those that have requested the court to freeze the state orders while the case plays itself out, none have been granted and — so far — four have been explicitly denied. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That isn’t surprising, said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the UC Berkeley Law School. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the UC Berkeley Law School\"]‘Simply put, these lawsuits are very likely to lose, as most of these challenges around the country have failed’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Simply put, these lawsuits are very likely to lose, as most of these challenges around the country have failed,” he said in an email. “The government has broad powers to take emergency actions to stop the spread of communicable diseases. This includes the power to order quarantine or shelter in place, to order closure of businesses, and to limit assemblies, including for religious purposes. So long as the government’s action is reasonably related to stopping the spread of COVID-19, the government is likely to prevail.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dhillon said she is playing the long game. A few state judges have slapped down her petitions to put the statewide order on hold — she said their rationales were “fairly lacking in analysis.” But where she loses, she may appeal to a higher court. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, she looks to court rulings in \u003ca href=\"https://time.com/5823881/kansas-religious-gathering-people-limits/\">Kansas\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/illinois-stay-at-home-order-pritzker-extension-judge-blocks/\">Illinois\u003c/a>, where judges have pushed back against public health decrees. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One day I hope to find a judge in California who has a similarly broad view of the Constitution,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"tracker\">\u003c/a>This lawsuit tracker is reported by Ben Christopher and created by web developer John Osborn D’Agostino.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https://calmatters-covid-19-lawsuit-tracker.netlify.app/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"800\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Dhillon said her law office is one of many hired by the center and that her office in turn works with other clients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Funding for the center, which pays for her office’s legal services, comes from individual donors whose contributions to the nonprofit are tax exempt.

The filing for 2019 has not yet been made available. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the pandemic began, Dhillon said that the nonprofit has received tens of thousands of dollars in donations, but that the legal bill incurred by repeatedly suing the state “significantly exceeds” that figure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I haven’t been paid a penny for these cases yet,” she insisted. “I’m not sure I will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the lawsuits filed against California’s shelter-in-place order are funded in part by conservative-leaning nonprofits. One of the challenges to Gov. Newsom’s allocation of state funds to undocumented immigrants is supported by Judicial Watch, Inc., a longtime legal antagonist of Bill and Hillary Clinton, which recently sued the U.S. Department of Justice for information regarding ties between former Vice President Joe Biden and Ukraine. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other nonprofit backers of the cases filed against California include the National Center for Law & Policy, which made headlines in 2015 when it sued the Escondido public school district for treating its students as “religious ‘guinea pigs” by \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-yoga-legal-fight-20150612-story.html\">subjecting them to yoga classes\u003c/a>, and Freedom X, a Los Angeles-based organization that lists combating “intellectual McCarthyism” and “creeping Sharia” as its main campaigns. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuits against California’s shelter-in-place orders are only just beginning to wind their way through the legal system. As both the state and counties begin to relax their various shelter-in-place orders, the complaints may be irrelevant before they reach a judicial conclusion. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But none have had much luck so far. Of those that have requested the court to freeze the state orders while the case plays itself out, none have been granted and — so far — four have been explicitly denied. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That isn’t surprising, said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the UC Berkeley Law School. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Citations also are absent. To find that crucial information, a user would need to locate and then click on the license number — which then links to the state’s main licensing \u003ca href=\"https://www.ccld.dss.ca.gov/carefacilitysearch/Search/ChildCare\">database\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"mindshift_55790\" label=\"The future of schools\" hero=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/23/2020/04/gettyimages-1209972908_slide-e66d48f25eb93420b7f647268e759d44c6085569-1020x680.jpg\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across California, 72% of child care is provided by licensed private businesses — large centers and small and large family home care sites, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kidsdata.org/topic/101/child-care-spaces/table#fmt=261&loc=2,127,347,1763,331,348,336,171,321,345,357,332,324,369,358,362,360,337,327,364,356,217,353,328,354,323,352,320,339,334,365,343,330,367,344,355,366,368,265,349,361,4,273,59,370,326,333,322,341,338,350,342,329,325,359,351,363,340,335&tf=124&ch=222,223,224\">accounting\u003c/a> for nearly 1 million child care slots.

The state’s shelter-in-place order never required private child care and preschool centers to close, but many have shut down for safety reasons or falling enrollment. Relatives who may have provided care or been backup babysitters \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2020/03/california-coronavirus-families-children-parents-school-districts-grandparents/\">are now in isolation\u003c/a>, and schools are out for the foreseeable future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the portal is not proving to be a one-stop shop, said Nina Buthee, executive director of EveryChild California, a statewide \u003ca href=\"https://www.everychildca.org/\">organization\u003c/a> supporting early childhood education programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any parent would still need to make quite a few phone calls and reach out to a number of different places,” Buthee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, she called the new California child care website a “really good start for finding out where facilities are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new portal allows a user to enter an address or ZIP code to see a map of nearby centers as well as a list of providers. From there a parent can choose a provider and access whatever information is available.

Murray said that element was cut because the page has a link to the original licensing site, where users can explore complaints, citations and facility inspection reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Buthee said if the goal was to create the informative, user-friendly site that Newsom promised, it should include a list of recent citations and complaints with the date, reason and resolution. Or instead, the site should explicitly explain what parents can find if they follow the link to the licensing data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, there is a more in-depth child care database in the works. In July, a long-awaited multimillion dollar website will launch that includes in-depth information and resources for families. This project was created in response to the requirements of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/cd/re/ccdf201921information.asp\">Child Care Development Block Grant\u003c/a> the state received in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The website was fully funded in last year’s budget, according to Keisha Nzewi, director of public policy for the California Child Care Resource and Referral \u003ca href=\"https://rrnetwork.org/\">Network\u003c/a>, which holds the contract and is building the site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s good to have something up,” said Nzewi about the state portal. “I wish people could see how beautiful and user-friendly this site is going to be. I wish COVID had held off or we had enough money to do this sooner.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, the referral network is working with the state to infuse the portal with some of the features from the new site, like a more robust database of providers and availability.\u003cbr>\n[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Maria Jandres, San Francisco parent\"]'That portal doesn’t give you any information.

The state’s shelter-in-place order never required private child care and preschool centers to close, but many have shut down for safety reasons or falling enrollment. Relatives who may have provided care or been backup babysitters \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2020/03/california-coronavirus-families-children-parents-school-districts-grandparents/\">are now in isolation\u003c/a>, and schools are out for the foreseeable future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the portal is not proving to be a one-stop shop, said Nina Buthee, executive director of EveryChild California, a statewide \u003ca href=\"https://www.everychildca.org/\">organization\u003c/a> supporting early childhood education programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any parent would still need to make quite a few phone calls and reach out to a number of different places,” Buthee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, she called the new California child care website a “really good start for finding out where facilities are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new portal allows a user to enter an address or ZIP code to see a map of nearby centers as well as a list of providers. From there a parent can choose a provider and access whatever information is available. The portal lists 41,000 sites and 464 new pop-up child care locations.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In-person voting will still be allowed if voters choose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pandemic has brought attention to an expansion of mail voting, and Trump has claimed, without evidence, it would increase voter fraud.

Co-chairs of the event were asked to raise $100,000, according to an invitation. David Plouffe, an adviser to former President Barack Obama, led the discussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom had supported Sen.

Gavin Newsom called the scramble for supplies \"the wild, wild, west\"— a months-long free-for-all by state and local governments to purchase protective equipment, ventilators and testing supplies needed on the front lines of the fight against COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lack of coordination by the federal government left states like California on their own to negotiate contracts for goods desperately needed to protect health care workers and safeguard the reopening of businesses as the world attempts to respond to a global pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Into that void stepped some suppliers who \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-04-23/coronavirus-california-masks-ppe-prices\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">charged sky-high prices\u003c/a> for masks. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1963700/california-wired-456-9-million-to-a-fledgling-company-to-pay-for-masks-within-hours-the-deal-was-dead\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Other deals fell through\u003c/a> entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We all took off on a plane that we were building as we were flying,\" Newsom said on May 6.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But another path may have been possible: the enactment of a state-level Defense Production Act, allowing California to marshal its enormous economy to mandate the production, and control the costs, of much-needed supplies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move would have been a challenge, but not impossible. The concept of a state-level act raises logistical and legal challenges that may have posed problems in the middle of an emergency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The federal Defense Production Act, enacted in 1950 during the Korean War, gives the U.S. president wide powers to mobilize industry in order to prevent supply shortages. [aside tag=\"coronavirus, politics\" label=\"More Related Stories\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the act, the president can require businesses to prioritize government contracts above other orders, redistribute supplies to where they are most needed and even direct companies to produce vitally needed goods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump has been widely criticized for not using the law's \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/03/25/821285204/trump-sends-mixed-messages-about-invoking-defense-production-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">full authority\u003c/a> in addressing a nationwide shortage of tests and protective equipment. As the coronavirus pandemic worsened and health care workers and epidemiologists pleaded for more masks and testing supplies, Trump told state officials they were responsible for procuring the goods they need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, this led to a rush by the Newsom administration to secure contracts with manufacturers across the globe, while encouraging companies based in the Golden State to pitch in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early April, the administration \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/04/04/governor-newsom-launches-one-stop-website-for-donations-sales-of-essential-medical-supplies-in-fight-against-covid-19/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">launched a website\u003c/a> to request donations and solicit offers for medical supplies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A handful of companies voluntarily converted their production to meet the state's needs, such as \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809502/photos-gov-newsom-and-san-jose-mayor-sam-liccardo-tour-ventilator-refurbishing-site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bloom Energy\u003c/a>, a San Jose-based fuel cell generator company that switched to refurbishing ventilators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the state largely focused on striking deals with existing suppliers of personal protective equipment, including many outside California. State legislators have pushed the governor for more transparency into some of the larger deals, like the $1 billion purchase of protective masks from a Chinese car company\u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-05-06/california-coronavirus-mask-price-byd-coronavirus\"> disclosed on May 6\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other deals for equipment fell apart entirely, including a half-billion dollar payment for medical supplies to a company now under federal investigation, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2020/05/california-mask-deal-blue-flame-collapsed-republican-vendor-maryland-porter-gula-thomas/\">first reported by CalMatters.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There were some larger contracts that didn’t cost the taxpayers a penny but were cautionary tales,\" Newsom said when pressed about the deal this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facing this cutthroat marketplace, some governors have longed for the certainty that could come from a state-level Defense Production Act: the potential to strong-arm suppliers within state lines and avoid an international bidding war.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I had a Defense Production Act in the state, I would use it,\" New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said last month. \"I don't have that tool, the federal government does.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Constitution gives the federal government the power to regulate the national economy under the Commerce Clause. States have historically been prevented from taking actions that interfere with interstate business by a legal doctrine known as the Dormant Commerce Clause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the idea of a state-level Defense Production Act could pass legal muster. \"California or other states could do something very much like the Defense Production Act,\" said Stanford Law School professor Bernadette Meyler.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The principal aspects [of the DPA] that have been relevant on the federal level are price controls and trying to make sure that people aren't exploiting the emergency by raising the price of particular needed goods or essential items,\" Meyler said. \"The states could also do the same thing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of competing in a marketplace against other states and nations all desperate for the same supplies, California would be able to ask suppliers within its borders to place the state at the front of the line for orders, or even require manufacturers to shift their production lines to create swabs, medical glass and masks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But any attempt by the state Legislature to create these new economic powers would likely face legal challenges from the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General William Barr has warned states that his office is already \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/c76e764141179075244ecfd5f1bb5e19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">on the lookout\u003c/a> for any encroachment on the federal government's oversight of the economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We do have a national economy which is the responsibility of the federal government. So it is possible that governors will take measures that impair interstate commerce,\" Barr said on the \u003ca href=\"https://www.hughhewitt.com/attorney-general-william-barr-on-the-crisis/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>Hugh Hewitt Show\u003c/em>\u003c/a> last month. \"And just where that line is drawn, you know, remains to be seen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Dormant Commerce Clause has not been understood to automatically override a state's interest in protecting public safety, said John Yoo, a law professor at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Just because a state does something that may impact interstate commerce does not mean it's automatically unconstitutional,\" said Yoo, who worked in the Department of Justice during the George W. Bush administration. \"Generally, what the courts have done is to say the state can't pass a law which on its face discriminates against out-of-staters,\" such as only allowing California residents to participate in a certain industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"State Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa\"] \"I just don't think that the loss of manufacturing that we've had in the state of California really lends itself to the type of manufacturing that we're looking for here.\"[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's no reason why the state couldn't enact a law that allows it to purchase emergency products and to require that manufacturers prioritized state emergency needs first,\" Yoo added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California would still have to pay companies a fair price to produce goods for the state. Costs could be contained by the state's existing laws against price gouging, already activated by the governor's emergency declaration — prevent manufacturers from raising prices on medical supplies by more than 10% of their pre-disaster cost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Meyler, the Stanford law professor said, \"If the states were able to provide just compensation, they could and should go ahead and mandate production of essential items.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the idea of a California Defense Production Act seems to have made little headway at the state Capitol, though not for legal reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California's much-touted status as the world’s fifth-largest economy belies the reality that the state's manufacturing base has declined dramatically from the mid-20th century, when California factories churned out battleships, ammunition and canned food to power the military during World War II.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just don't think that the loss of manufacturing that we've had in the state of California really lends itself to the type of manufacturing that we're looking for here,\" said state Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dodd, who chairs the Senate Governmental Organization Committee, overseeing disaster response, said California companies such as 3-D printing manufacturers have come forward, willing to help contribute to the state's effort to produce more protective equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The reality is, while it's very generous and every mask helps, it's really not able to be done at a scale that really makes a difference,\" Dodd said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For his part, Newsom acknowledged that avenue was considered, but ultimately passed over, in the early weeks of the outbreak — as the state rushed to establish supply chains for protective gear and ventilators. [aside postID=\"news_11809423, news_11808531\" label=\"More Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As coronavirus hospitalizations climbed in March and early April, state leaders felt they couldn't wait for a reshaping of the state's economy to provide the kind of large-scale production of equipment that was already being produced elsewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We considered it, but we felt there were a lot of things already happening, and the necessity to move quickly required us to use more of these traditional supply chains,\" Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These very large-scale procurements of masks ... are in the tens of millions, hundreds of millions when we’re done with all of this,\" he added. \"We felt that was a better way of going to meet the immediate needs because of the time delay of getting these other companies up and moving.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dodd said California's struggle to purchase emergency supplies has exposed the state and country's reliance on international markets — and could lead state leaders to reconsider the question in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you're in a global pandemic, everybody needs the same thing you have and when you don't manufacture it at home, there are problems,\" Dodd said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That said, the demand for these items are not 365 days a year for 50 years straight, so it's a little more difficult,\" he added. \"But we need to be thinking about how we do this in the future.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

As the coronavirus pandemic worsened and health care workers and epidemiologists pleaded for more masks and testing supplies, Trump told state officials they were responsible for procuring the goods they need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, this led to a rush by the Newsom administration to secure contracts with manufacturers across the globe, while encouraging companies based in the Golden State to pitch in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early April, the administration \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/04/04/governor-newsom-launches-one-stop-website-for-donations-sales-of-essential-medical-supplies-in-fight-against-covid-19/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">launched a website\u003c/a> to request donations and solicit offers for medical supplies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A handful of companies voluntarily converted their production to meet the state's needs, such as \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809502/photos-gov-newsom-and-san-jose-mayor-sam-liccardo-tour-ventilator-refurbishing-site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bloom Energy\u003c/a>, a San Jose-based fuel cell generator company that switched to refurbishing ventilators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the state largely focused on striking deals with existing suppliers of personal protective equipment, including many outside California. State legislators have pushed the governor for more transparency into some of the larger deals, like the $1 billion purchase of protective masks from a Chinese car company\u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-05-06/california-coronavirus-mask-price-byd-coronavirus\"> disclosed on May 6\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other deals for equipment fell apart entirely, including a half-billion dollar payment for medical supplies to a company now under federal investigation, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2020/05/california-mask-deal-blue-flame-collapsed-republican-vendor-maryland-porter-gula-thomas/\">first reported by CalMatters.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There were some larger contracts that didn’t cost the taxpayers a penny but were cautionary tales,\" Newsom said when pressed about the deal this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facing this cutthroat marketplace, some governors have longed for the certainty that could come from a state-level Defense Production Act: the potential to strong-arm suppliers within state lines and avoid an international bidding war.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I had a Defense Production Act in the state, I would use it,\" New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said last month. \"I don't have that tool, the federal government does.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Constitution gives the federal government the power to regulate the national economy under the Commerce Clause. States have historically been prevented from taking actions that interfere with interstate business by a legal doctrine known as the Dormant Commerce Clause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the idea of a state-level Defense Production Act could pass legal muster. \"California or other states could do something very much like the Defense Production Act,\" said Stanford Law School professor Bernadette Meyler.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The principal aspects [of the DPA] that have been relevant on the federal level are price controls and trying to make sure that people aren't exploiting the emergency by raising the price of particular needed goods or essential items,\" Meyler said. \"The states could also do the same thing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of competing in a marketplace against other states and nations all desperate for the same supplies, California would be able to ask suppliers within its borders to place the state at the front of the line for orders, or even require manufacturers to shift their production lines to create swabs, medical glass and masks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But any attempt by the state Legislature to create these new economic powers would likely face legal challenges from the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General William Barr has warned states that his office is already \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/c76e764141179075244ecfd5f1bb5e19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">on the lookout\u003c/a> for any encroachment on the federal government's oversight of the economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We do have a national economy which is the responsibility of the federal government. So it is possible that governors will take measures that impair interstate commerce,\" Barr said on the \u003ca href=\"https://www.hughhewitt.com/attorney-general-william-barr-on-the-crisis/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>Hugh Hewitt Show\u003c/em>\u003c/a> last month. \"And just where that line is drawn, you know, remains to be seen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Dormant Commerce Clause has not been understood to automatically override a state's interest in protecting public safety, said John Yoo, a law professor at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Just because a state does something that may impact interstate commerce does not mean it's automatically unconstitutional,\" said Yoo, who worked in the Department of Justice during the George W. Bush administration. \"Generally, what the courts have done is to say the state can't pass a law which on its face discriminates against out-of-staters,\" such as only allowing California residents to participate in a certain industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The state will publish those plans for public review.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One thing I know very well, is that many of these counties, regions, have done a ton of work in this space and are already ready to go,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom emphasized, though, the state has power to intervene if these plans do not adequately contain the spread of the virus, and added that counties will also need to provide a strategy to \"claw back\" if case numbers begin to surge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor also underscored that counties with stricter guidelines, like those in the Bay Area, will be allowed to continue enforcing their regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11814970/bay-area-shelter-in-place-orders-extended-through-may-31\">Bay Area shelter-in-place order\u003c/a>, which went into effect at 11:59 p.m. on May 3, specifies that residents must comply with the strictest order — be it state or local.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In further explaining the changes, California Department of Public Health Director Dr. Sonia Angell said the data support the easing of restrictions, adding that California will monitor four factors as restrictions ease:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Ensure the state's ability to care for the sick within hospitals;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Prevent infection in high-risk populations;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Build capacity to protect the health and well-being of the public;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Reduce social, emotional and economic disruptions.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Angell said the state is showing good metrics in key areas, which include stability of hospitalizations, the availability of personal protective equipment and the ability to provide contract tracing and testing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CAgovernor/status/1257395106895847424?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California currently has 14 facilities available to take in patients infected with the coronavirus, providing more than 2,000 additional beds if there is a surge in cases, Angell said. The state also has more than 10,000 ventilators available and more than 94,000 applicants interested in joining the California Health Corps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"coronavirus\"]Newsom also announced a new partnership with UCSF and UCLA, who will work with the state to run a virtual academy to train new contact tracers, with the goal of adding 3,000 new tracers each week to help identify and quarantine people who may have been exposed to the virus. The state will also provide a confidentially managed data platform to support contract tracing and data manifestation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to certain regions in the state, including Yuba, Sutter and Modoc counties, moving forward with reopening this weekend ahead of the state's direction, Newsom said there are mechanisms to make counties pull back if need be, but would rather try to work cooperatively with those localities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This virus has not gone away. Let's not develop amnesia, let's not forget why we're in this position in the first place, let's not be naive about the virulence of this disease,\" Newsom said. \"History doesn't repeat, it rhymes. I just hope we are stewards of our public health first and foremost in those cities and counties, and I know the vast majority of them are.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",
