From YouTube: Governor Newsom's COVID-19 Update - May 11, 2020
Description
Governor Gavin Newsom provides an update on the state's response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
In a letter to Congressional leadership today, governors and legislative leaders from five western states requested $1 trillion in direct and flexible relief to states and local governments in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in order to preserve core government services like public health, public safety and public education, and help people get back to work.

But
let
me
first
begin
by
making
a
statement
reinforcing
some
of
the
words
I've
been
saying
over
the
course
the
last
few
weeks.
You
know
it
was
just
a
number
of
months
ago
that
California
was
announcing
a
projected
six
billion
dollar
budget
surplus.
I'll
remind
you
this
time.
Last
year,
that
surplus
was
projected
to
be
over
twenty
one
point:
four
billion
dollars.
We
were
debating
the
size
of
the
surplus
and
how
best
to
manage
our
budget
with
that
surplus
in
mind,
but
just
90
or
so
days
ago,
a
projected
six
billion
dollar
budget
surplus.
B
We
reflected
on
the
fact
that
the
state
over
the
last
five
years
has
enjoyed
three
point:
eight
percent
annual
GDP
growth
substantially
outperforming
the
rest
of
the
nation
in
so
many
ways.
In
the
last
five
or
six
years,
we've
really
become
the
tenth
poll,
the
American
economy,
in
terms
of
job
creation
in
terms
of
economic
output,
not
only
reflected
in
those
GDP
numbers,
but
the
consecutive
months
of
net
job
growth.
B
We
had
record
low
unemployment
record
reserves
in
the
state
of
California,
paid
off
that
wall
of
debt,
which
become
so
infamous
in
the
state
of
California,
and
saw
our
bond
rating
independent
of
any
assertions
by
an
elected
official.
Our
bond
rating
agencies
upgraded
this
state
on
two
occasions.
In
the
last
year,
I
say
all
that
and
as
I
said
all
of
that
on
multiple
occasions
to
just
reinforce
the
current
status,
and
that
is,
those
numbers
are
completely
flipped.
B
We
now
are
struggling
with
tens
of
billions
of
dollars,
budget
deficits
directly
as
an
impact
directly
caused
because
the
impact
of
this
disease-
covin
19
unemployment-
has
skyrocketed
in
this
state.
Some
thirteen
point,
one
billion
dollars
of
unemployment
claims.
We
have
distributed
thirteen
point,
1
billion
dollars
in
cash
has
been
distributed
to
people
struggling
and
suffering
because
of
the
economic
consequences.
Four
point:
five
million
Californians
that
have
filed
for
unemployment,
insurance
and
PUA
pandemic
unemployment
assistance,
just
since
March
twelfth
four
point:
five
million.
B
B
You're,
seeing
numbers
come
in
and
states
large
and
small
the
impact
to
the
general
funds
that
their
budgets
states
like
California,
that
we're
running
some
surplus
is
now
running
historic
deficits
and
challenges
related
to
unemployment
claims,
the
likes
of
which
they
haven't
seen
since
the
great
depression.
These
are
challenging
times
and
they
require
a
collaborative
spirit.
B
They
require
a
level
of
cooperation
that
led
to
conversation
with
our
Western
Governors
and
our
Western
PAC,
where
we
decided
it
would
be
best
if
we
go
together
and
advance
our
needs
and
put
to
light
and
put
into
writing
our
hope
and
expectation
of
support
from
the
federal
government.
And
today
we
are
putting
out
jointly
governors
of
Oregon
Washington,
Nevada
and
Colorado,
and
their
respective
leadership
in
their
assembly
and
in
their
state
Senate.
B
Some
our
House
of
Representatives,
depending
on
the
state
but
the
signature
of
the
speaker,
the
leader,
Pro
Tem
of
the
Senate,
not
just
the
assembly
in
each
of
those
states
and
the
governor
and
our
speaker,
Anthony
Rendon,
our
Pro
Tem
and
Tony
Atkins,
and
the
minority
leader
of
the
assembly.
Republican
Murray
Waldron
signed
similar
letter
to
the
federal
government
to
Nancy
Pelosi
to
Mitch,
McConnell
and
others.
Requesting
aid
in
a
one
trillion
dollar
range.
That's
the
range
of
support.
We
feel
we
need,
as
a
nation
states
municipal
as
well
as
counties.
B
This
is
the
the
requirement
of
this
moment.
These
are
it
gives
you
a
sense
of
the
thrust
of
of
the
the
needs
that
we
are
all
feeling
as
States
as
regions
as
city
that
are
required
to
get
through
this
pandemic
and
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
justice
to
you
to
your
public
health,
to
your
public
safety,
to
our
education
system,
because
remember
these
budgetary
shortfalls
are
so
much
bigger
than
any
state
any
city
any
County,
but
they
directly
impact
public
safety,
our
firefighters,
our
police
officers,
our
first
responders.
B
They
directly
impact
public
education
and
our
teachers.
They
directly
impact
public
health
and
our
ability
for
counties
to
support
their
public
health
systems.
It's
not
just
States
asking
for
a
bailout,
quite
the
contrary.
It's
requesting
that
we
support
those
that
we
need
the
most.
At
this
time,
our
public
safety
officials
are
public
health
officials
and
make
sure
that
we
do
justice
to
our
public
education
system.
So
I'm
very
pleased
with
this
pact.
B
I'm
very
pleased
with
the
letter
and
I
couldn't
be
more
proud
and
honored
by
the
signatures
of
all
of
those,
not
only
our
three
leaders
in
the
state,
but
substantively
those
leaders
across
the
United
States
in
this
pact
that
represent
legislative
leaders,
not
just
the
executives
themselves.
So
I
wanted
to
begin
with.
That,
and
I
also
extend
appreciation
for
the
ongoing
collaborative
this
best
practice
sharing
that
continues
within
these
regional
PACs.
B
It
continues
to
I
think
in
spread
and
press,
not
only
me
but
enliven,
all
of
us,
the
ability
for
our
Chiefs
of
staff's
and
our
office
of
emergency
personnel
to
continue
to
share
best
practices
in
real
time
and
just
based
on
a
lot
of
those
conversations.
This
is
one
of
the
one
of
the
efforts
that
we
are
now
making
public
here
today.
Another
effort
we've
been
focusing
on
is
PPE
and
doing
more
together
and
figure
it
out
ways
that
we
can.
B
You
know
leverage
our
purchasing
capacity
a
little
bit
more
I
want
to
just
give
you
an
update
on
Friday
in
the
state
of
California.
We
need
something:
we've
not
been
able
to
do
in
the
past,
and
that
is
we
released.
11
million
procedure
masks
to
critical
industries
all
throughout
the
state
of
California.
11
million
masks
were
distributed
just
on
Friday
alone.
Five
million
masks
when
specifically
to
our
Department
of
Social
Services
to
our
child
care
facilities,
our
in-home
Support
Services
and
our
other
DSS
run.
B
Adult
and
senior
facilities
and
I
want
to
just
pause
on
that.
For
a
moment,
we
talked
a
lot
about
skilled
nursing
facilities,
of
which
there
are
twelve
hundred
and
twenty-four,
but
the
Department
of
Social
Services
is
responsible
for
an
additional
seven
thousand
four
hundred
and
forty
two
senior
and
adult
facilities
throughout
the
state
of
California.
B
These
tend
to
be
smaller,
but
still
precious
and
important,
and
so
when
we
have
talked
a
lot
about
sniffs
and
skilled
nursing
facilities
and
getting
PPE
and
more
testing,
it's
also
incumbent
upon
all
of
us
to
expand
that
conversation
to
all
of
these
other
facilities.
These
are
where
you
have
six
or
seven
people,
sometimes
even
less
in
small
group
homes
that
are
very
vulnerable
to
this
virus
as
well.
B
So
we
were
able
to
get
those
5
million
procedure,
masks
into
that
system
and
broaden
our
our
capacity
to
deliver
on
our
promise
to
provide
that
protective
gear.
That's
so
essential
and
foundational
for
not
only
our
public
health,
the
safety
of
those
residents
and
staff,
but
also
to
help
us
move
forward
and
reopen
the
economy.
Accordingly,
we
are
able
to
get
4.2
million
masks
to
farmworkers
and
into
our
agricultural
community,
4.2
million
just
on
Friday,
as
well,
750
thousand
to
our
groceries
and
our
suit,
our
grocers
and
our
food
supply
chain.
B
Five
hundred
thousand
masks
went
into
the
Department
of
Education
on
Friday,
and
tens
of
thousands
of
masks
went
to
transit
agencies
across
the
state.
Again.
All
of
this
is
foundational
in
terms
of
getting
where
we
all
want
to
go,
and
that's
into
this
second
phase
and
beginning
to
continue,
or
rather
to
begin
more
robustly,
modify
our
stay
at
home
order,
and
so
we
talked
a
lot
about
testing
we'll
be
talking
more
about
that
tomorrow.
B
Just
in
addition
to
that
briefly
open
up
for
questions
here
a
moment
I
want
folks
to
know
that
we
had
some
very
constructive
conversations
over
the
last
72
or
so
hours.
19
different
counties
engaged
our
public
health
officials
and
dialogues
around
the
self
certifications.
These
variants
is
that
we
will
start
seeing
throughout
the
state
of
California,
so
very
healthy
dialogues,
I
think
they're,
nine
more
scheduled
that
we
have
lined
up
just
today,
so
we've
been
active
in
that
space
actively
working
with
these
counties.
B
So,
if
language,
flexibility
but
prescriptive
in
terms
of
those
guidelines
being
a
little
bit
more
formalized,
those
come
out
tomorrow
and
we'll
see,
I'm
sure
more
conversations
take
shape
and
more
engagement
being
advanced
once
those
once
those
guidelines
come
out
as
well,
but
good
news
progress
in
that
space
and
I
know
others
are
more
eager
to
more
more
quickly
and
we
will
work
with
every
county
with
every
city,
any
practical
and
responsible
way.
But
here's
the
caveat.
This
is
a
health
driven
conversation.
B
It's
not
because
we
don't
want
to
not
because
we
would
not
like
to
it's
not
because
we
want
to
be
particularly
oppressive
in
terms
of
people's
desires
and
needs.
It's
because
public
health
dictates
that
we
do
this
in
your
doodle
way,
we're
not
going
to
deviate
from
that
path.
That's
the
foundational
principle
that
guided
us
into
the
stay
at
home
order
and
will
guide
us
of
the
stay-at-home
order,
data
evidence.
But
again
we
are
flexible
in
this
respect.
We're
not
ideologues
in
terms
of
the
engagement.
We
recognize.
No
two
counties
are
alike.
B
No
two
cities
within
the
counties
are
alike
and
we
want
to
be
responsive
and
respectful
to
those
calls,
but
know
that
these
are
dynamic
conversations.
Each
County
requires
an
enormous
amount
of
attention
and
support
and
we're
getting
credible
response
for
the
vast
majority
of
counties
that
have
done
enormous
amount
of
work
already.
But
there
are
some
stubborn
data
points
that
are
impediments
in
terms
of
total
number
of
hospitalizations,
total
capacity
on
surge,
total
capacity
to
trace
and
test
and,
of
course,
death
rates
that
continue
to
be
challenging.
B
I
mentioned
just
last
week
that
we
had
seen
a
good
week
of
a
decline
in
death
rates.
Only
to
see
the
week
of
death
rates
go
back
up,
we
began
I'll
begin
this
week
with
good
news.
In
that
respect,
Bo
the
weekend
numbers
I,
always
well
good
news
in
this
respect:
25
deaths
devastating
nonetheless,
25
lives
lost
families
torn
asunder,
but
25
deaths.
To
begin
this
week,
far
cry
from
how
we
began
last
week
was
substantially
higher
number
of
deaths,
but
we're
still
seeing
lives
lost
from
this
pandemic.
B
B
But
it
is
absolutely
incumbent
upon
all
of
us
to
be
thoughtful
and
judicious
as
we
move
into
this
next
phase
and
just
to
end
and
to
reinforce
an
important
point.
This
is
a
dynamic
process.
Last
week
we
made
an
announcement,
as
relates
to
retail,
manufacturing
and
logistics,
allowing
from
a
statewide
order
those
restrictions
to
be
lifted,
modifications
still
in
place,
but
these
statewide
prohibitions
to
be
lifted
in
these
lower
impact
industries.
We
recognize
that
there
are
counties
that
are
still
holding
a
little
stronger.
B
The
Bay
Area
wants
to
continue
for
an
additional
week
and
we
respect
the
right
based
on
local
conditions,
for
people
to
to
be
a
little
more
strict.
At
the
same
time,
with
these
variances,
we
recognize
the
same.
We
want
to
see
people
loosen
up
with
conditions
that
can
be
met
and
expectations
that
can
be
delivered,
but
it's
also
important
to
note
that
we
continue
as
a
state
to
move
into
this
Phase
two
and
we
will
be
making
announcements.
This
is
a
dynamic
process.
This
is
a
very
iterative
process.
B
There's
a
flow
here
that
you
should
anticipate
where
the
Department
of
Public
Health
will
be
putting
out
the
guidelines.
We
hope
on
a
consistent
basis
to
continue
to
modify
the
statewide
order.
So
it's
a
way
of
long-winded
ly,
saying
this
for
counties
that
feel
like
they're,
just
locked
in
and
somehow
they're
not
going
to
be
able
to
move.
That's
not
the
case.
We
as
a
state
will
move
together.
B
Thank
everybody
for
all
their
outstanding
work.
Getting
us
to
this
point
over.
Seventy
percent
of
the
economy
in
the
state
of
California
over
seventy
percent
of
the
economy
is
open
with
some
modifications,
70
Plus
percent-
that's
just
something
that
I
want
to
reinforce
and
as
we
move
into
the
next
30%
we'll
do
so
with
your
health
front
and
center
economic
considerations
of
health
also
always
part
of
our
larger
considerations.
But
we'll
do
so
in
a
very
methodical
and
deliberative
way
as
we
have
to
date,
and
so
with
that
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
C
Thank
You
governor,
as
testing,
was
ramping
up.
The
priority
I
was
given
to
healthcare
and
other
frontline
workers
along
with
people
who
were
sick.
You
and
others
have
said
you
don't
want
to
get
tested
because
testing
capacity
should
be
reserved
for
them,
but
now
that
you
know
all
those
testings
that
they
still
limited,
but
my
question
now
is
like
who
do
you
recommend
seek
out
a
test
you
know
could
be
depending
on
where
you
sign
up.
You
might
get
a
message:
things
gonna
cost
$100
or
more.
B
I
would
encourage
people
to
go
to
kovat
19
ca.gov
kovat
19
ca.gov.
We
have
a
tool,
that's
been
used
by
an
extraordinary
number
of
people
to
put
in
their
zip
code
their
address
and
find
out
the
closest
location
to
a
testing
site
that
will
answer
prompt
questions
that
could
be
answered
and
allow
you
in
many
cases
to
do
online
reservation.
B
These
are
the
optimist
or
cites
the
verily
sites
and
then
the
251
community
sites
that
we
have
in
our
system.
That
site
is
dynamic
and
will
continue
to
update
it
accordingly.
As
you
know,
Scott
California
is
the
first
state
to
move
beyond
the
CDC
guidelines,
in
terms
of
who
we
recommend
for
testing,
and
we
started
to
loosen
that
up
a
few
weeks
back
pursuant
to
the
advice
and
counsel
from
our
testing
task
force,
asymptomatic
individuals
working
as
essential
workers
in
and
around
vulnerable
communities.
B
We
want
to
see
that
more
broadly
much
more
broadened
in
the
coming
weeks
as
more
testing
capacity
presents
itself.
Here's
with
me
not
getting
ahead
of
myself
tomorrow,
we'll
be
updating
you
and
others
on
where
we
are
in
testing
and
where
we
think
we're
going
I'm
trying
to
give
you
as
much
as
I
can
without
jumping
ahead
of
the
announcement
tomorrow,
but
we'll
reach
a
major
milestone
tomorrow
on
testing,
we'll
also
be
updating
with
key
points
about
the
new
testing
capacity
that
we
have
in
this
state.
B
Be
it
the
traditional
PCR
testing,
the
serum
testing
and
also
new
point
care
modalities
and
other
antibody
testing
that
is
being
done
in
the
state.
So
we're
going
to
put
all
that
out
we're
going
to
expand
that
scope
of
understanding,
but
I
hope
people
in
the
interim
continue
to
go
to

and
avail
themselves
to
the
testing
that
exists
and
I'll
just
end
by
saying
this
relates
to
costs
through
the
médicale
system.
Its
reimbursed
through
the
plans.
Money
should
not
be
an
obstacle
to
getting
testing
and
regardless
of
your
status.
B
D
Hi
governor,
my
question
relates
to
the
regional
variability
and
requirements
laid
out
for
counties
here
in
Kern.
County
officials
held
a
briefing
this
morning
and
they
announced
that
we
pretty
much
meet
all
the
criteria
for
the
regional
variability,
except
for
the
infections
per
10,000
and
the
death
rate
and
in
particular
our
death
rate
is
impacted
by
one
nursing
home
here
that
accounts
for
60%
of
the
deaths
in
our
County
and
so
I.
D
Just
wonder
the
the
local
official
said
that
they're
gonna
ask
the
count,
does
state
to
you
reconsider
some
of
these
things,
reconsider
maybe
the
infection
rate
or
the
death
rate
and
I
wonder
it
specifically.
If
you
could
respond
to
that,
and
are
you
going
to
start
giving
some
consideration
for
the
fact
that
nursing
homes
might
account,
for
you
know,
a
disproportionate
amount
of
cases
or
deaths
in
a
County?
And
do
you
think
that
you'll
find
some
way
to
work
with
these
counties
on
these
the
benchmarks
that
may
be
difficult
for
them?
Yeah.
B
The
good
news
is,
we
already
are
specifically
York
County,
the
leader
of
the
Senate
Republican
leader,
Shanna
Grove,
reached
out
to
me
directly
today
on
those
specific
issues
that
were
brought
up,
look
I,
recognize
variations
within
variations
and
and
I
obviously
recognize
deeply
and
I.
Think
soberly.
We
all
recognize.
What's
happened
to
our
seniors
in
these
skilled
nursing
facilities,
but
it's
important
to
make
this
point:
they're
not
isolated.
B
The
sniffs
they're
not
isolated,
the
assisted
living
facilities,
staff
is
moving
around
staff
needs
to
be
protected,
staff
or
members
of
our
community
staff
live
in
the
cities
they
operate.
The
communities
operate,
some,
don't
some
commute
long
distances.
This
is
dynamic
disease.
The
virulence
of
this
disease
is
well-documented,
number
of
lives
lost
it's
devastating
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
whatever
we
do,
we
have
the
health
of
community
in
mind.
But
the
answer
your
question
is,
of
course,
as
said
this,
when
we
announced
the
variants
we
announced
the
modifications.
B
The
guidelines
were
open
argument,
interested
evidence
and
there's
a
lot
of
interesting
nuance
within
these
large
counties
and
that
obviously
needs
to
be
taken
into
account.
We're
going
to
be
as
flexible
as
we
possibly
can
as
long
as
the
public
health
officials
are
guiding
us
through
this,
with
your
health
and
the
community's
broader
health
always
front
and
center.
In
terms
of
those
decision,
decisions
and
determinations.
E
Hi
governor
I
wanted
to
ask
you
about
the
you
know:
fight
going
on
between
Elon
Musk
and
Alameda
County
public
health
officers
right
now
about
the
Tesla
manufacturing
plant.
Does
your
administration
consider
car
manufacturing
to
be
an
essential
part
of
the
economy
during
this
time,
and
do
you
think
that
Tesla
should
be
allowed
to
reopen
with
proper
safety
guidelines
in
place
to
resume
manufacturing
right
now?
Yeah.
B
So
manufacturing
as
I
noted
just
in
the
outset
of
the
conversation
here
today
mentioned
full
week
ago
in
the
state
of
California,
we
have
made
meaningful
modifications
on
manufacturing
and
logistics,
including
by
the
way
just
on
the
front
end
car
dealers
that
go
back
many
many
weeks.
Modifications
were
made
earlier
on
in
that
space.
So
that's
that's
our
position
as
a
state,
as
you
just
heard
me
say
a
moment
ago.
B
Pete
we
recognize
localism
both
from
a
county
previous
call,
questions
about
a
County
wants
to
go
further
and
other
counties
that
don't
want
to
even
go
as
far
as
the
state,
which
is
the
case
in
Alameda
County.
My
understanding
is,
they
have
had
some
very
constructive
conversations
with
the
folks
at
that
facility.
The
County
Health
Director
and
they're
working
to
focus
on
the
health
and
safety
of
the
employees
at
that
facility,
and
my
belief
and
hope
and
expectation
is
as
early
as
next
week.
F
F
I
mean
funding
business
licensure
and
secondly,
as
this
is
kind
of
a
follow-up
to
something
you
mentioned
last
week,
but
Major
League
Baseball
has
since
put
out
a
proposal
to
return
to
playing
in
early
July
with
no
fans,
and
each
game
would
silk'n
would
still
need
about
will
require
about
a
hundred
people
to
be
in
the
empty
stadiums.
Is
the
state
gonna
allow
something
like
that?
You
don't
want.
You
know
yeah.
B
We
we
talked
I
talked
to
the
Commissioner
of
Major
League
Baseball,
and
he
said
we
won't
do
anything.
That's
not
consistent
with
state
guidelines,
so
I'm
not
concerned
about
what
they
do.
As
long
as
it's
consistent
with
state
guidelines,
we'll
see
where
we
will
be
in
July
I'm,
very
encouraged
by
the
progress
the
state
of
California
is
made
to
date
and
we
are
making
meaningful
modifications
in
real
time
we'll
be
in
making
subsequent
announcements
tomorrow,
as
it
relates
to
putting
out
the
guidelines
for
these
regional
variations.
B
That
can
be
self
attested
torts
or
two,
but
we
certainly
look
forward
to
Major,
League,
Baseball
and
all
sports
resuming.
But
again,
the
question
is
when,
in
that
it
will
be
determined
on
the
basis
of
public
health
and
public
safety
and
the
spread
of
this
virus,
and
so
we
will
see
in
that
space
as
it
relates
to
the
issue
of
enforcement.
I've
been
very
clear.
In
the
past
you've
heard
me
say
on
multiple
occasions
number
of
contacts
we've
made
to
businesses
that
have
opened
understandably
frustrated
and
concerned.
B
They
opened
a
little
bit
earlier
and
then
perhaps
they
should
have
for
the
protection
of
their
own
employees,
let
alone
their
customers
and
the
vast
majority
of
them
have
been
contacted,
have
applied
caution
and
have
reconsidered
their
opening.
So
it's
not
heavy
fisted
or
heavy-handed
rather
or
closed
fisted.
We
will
continue
to
work
as
collaborative
as
possible
and,
as
I
said,
the
spirit
of
the
work
we're
doing
with
these
counties
has
been
incredibly
collaborative
now,
we'll
see
in
every
case
not
every
county
is
gonna,
be
able
to
get
a
variance.
I.
B
Imagine
that
will
there'll
be
expressions
of
frustration
and
angst
in
that
respect,
and
if
they,
you
know,
jump
ahead,
we'll
continue
to
use
the
tools
that
many
local
governments
have
already
been
using,
but
you
mentioned
two
counties
that
have
been
incredibly
cooperative
over
the
course
of
last
week
and
we're
having
some
very
good
conversations
and
there's
those
examples.
You
use
they're
sort
of
proof
points
of
confidence
that
I
have
that
we'll
be
able
to
work
through
a
lot
of
the
differences
we
may
have.
B
The
western
state
pack
was
about
many
things.
It
wasn't
about
any
one
thing
or
another,
in
fact,
very
substantive
is
about
what
we
were
announcing
today,
a
joint
letter,
it's
about
sharing
of
best
practices.
It's
about
a
more
collaborative
spirit.
It's
about
recognizing,
there's,
regional
variations
within
our
own
States
I
mentioned
on
multiple
occasions.
I'll
reinforce
it
here
today,
the
incredible
so
support
and
advice.
B
We
got
from
Colorado
and
Oregon,
just
as
two
points
on
our
regional
variation
plan
that
they
had
moved
forward
with
that
we
are
moving
forward
with,
as
well
as
just
examples
of
us
working
collaboratively.
Look
as
it
relates
to
Tesla.
I
have
long
been
a
strong
advocate
and
supporter
early
adopter.
The
technology
I
have
not
only
known
that
company,
but
I've
known
its
founder
for
many
many
years.
I
have
great
reverence
for
their
technology,
for
their
innovative
spirit,
for
their
leadership
and
I
have
great
expectations
that
we
can
work
through
at
the
county
level.
B
The
issue
with
this
particular
county
and
this
company
in
the
next
number
of
days
so
look
I,
have
more
confidence
moving
forward
in
our
ability
to
support
a
company
that
this
state
has
substantively
supported
for
now
many
many
years
and
in
return
we
have
been
beneficiaries
of
their
incredible
growth,
ingenuity
and
innovative
spirit.
We
look
forward
to
many
many
decades
of
that
relationship
and
I
know.
Many
of
us
are
frustrated
by
where
we
are
in
this
pandemic.
Some
of
this,
you
know
a
lot
of
this,
almost
all
of
it.
B
No
one
could
have
ever
seen
coming,
but
we're
working
through
all
these
issues
in
real
time
we're
getting
very
close.
Even
those
Bay
Area
modifications
come
in
in
the
next
number
of
days
within
a
week
or
so
and
I'm
confident
we'll
get
through
this.
Regardless
of
what
some
people
are
saying,
on
social
media
and
in
the
press
currently.
H
Thank
You
governor
not
not
to
harp
on
Tesla
but
I'm,
just
curious.
Have
you
spoken
to
Elon
Musk
about
this
and
I'm
sure
you
know
that
he
went
ahead
and
reopened
his
factory
this
morning
in
direct
defiance
of
the
county
of
whether
he's
in
still
in
constructive
negotiations
with
them
or
not.
But
have
you
spoken
to
him
about
this
and
what
is
the
message
not
only
to
him
but
to
other
business
owners
watching
this
around
the
state?
B
I
can't
attest
to
the
fact
he's
reopened
today,
not
aware
the
details
of
that.
But
the
answer
your
question.
Yes,
we
did
have
a
conversation
a
number
of
days
ago
and
again
I.
We
made
the
modification.
He
wanted
clarification
on
the
state
modification
where
we
did
move
forward
with
the
manufacturing
and
logistics
and
retail
augmentations,
again
70%
of
the
economy
in
the
state
of
California
and
now
open.
At
the
same
time,
we
do
have
regional
conditions.
B
You
work
in
a
community
that
is
among
those
that
went
regionally
in
a
pact
where
we
are
respecting
the
rights
of
their
health
directors
to
make
decisions
that
they
see
best
for
themselves
and
the
extent
we
can
be
helpful
and
accommodating.
We
will
be
to
move
these
conversations
along
more
quickly,
but
I
look
forward
to
getting
manufacturing
back
in
the
state.
More
logistics
work,
more
retail.
We
made
those
modifications
again
with
conditions,
health
and
safety
conditions,
first
and
foremost,
and
as
someone
comes
from
the
private
sector,
a
business
person
before
I
got
into
politics.
B
I
deeply
recognized
the
anxiety
that
people
are
feeling
about
the
economic
pressures
and
the
need
to
reopen,
and
we
look
forward
to
all
of
these
companies
reopening
re-energized
and
getting
all
of
our
workers
back
in
a
safe
way
and
the
economy
moving
in
a
big
in
a
very
dynamic
way.
Very
very
shortly.
I
Hi
governor
one
last
question,
so
I
was
just
wondering:
I
mean
there
are
photographs
circulating
of
a
full
parking
lot
over
there,
indicating
that
there's
lots
of
people
in
there.
B
As
I
was
just
mentioned,
I
need
the
details
of
that,
as
my
understanding
is
when
I
walked
up
to
the
podium
today.
That
wasn't
the
case
again:
I'm
I'm
trying
to
monitor
hundreds
of
thousands
of
businesses
all
throughout
the
state
of
California
trying
to
work
with
businesses,
large
and
small
working
with
these
counties
large
and
small.
B
To
do
these
meaningful
modifications
we
are
being
guided
by
help
directors,
health
departments,
guided
by
people's
public
health
and
their
health
and
their
employees
and
in
the
communities
they
broadly
serve,
and
we
were
very
pleased
to
hear
the
collaborative
spirit
that
was
taking
shape
over
the
weekend,
as
it
relates
to
the
health
and
safety
of
employees
in
that
one
particular
facility
in
to
the
extent
that
they're
moving
forward
we'll
work
with
the
county
health
officials.
But
again
it's
County
led
forcement.
B
J
Hi,
governor,
there's
gonna
be
a
legislative
oversight
hearing
today
at
1:30
on
the
process
for
vetting
contract
to
buy
PPE,
and
you
know,
there's
been
some
some
news
reporting
on
the
prevalence
of
no-bid
contract
and
some
deals
that
have
fallen
through.
Are
you
confident
in
the
faith
vetting
process
on
these
fields
that
we're
making
for
PPE?
And
you
know
what
would
you
say
to
the
lawmakers
who
have
questions
about
that?
Well,.
B
We
will
be
saying
a
lot
to
those
lawmakers
they
will
be
having
a
hearing.
All
our
team
is
over
there
to
answer
those
questions.
I've
answered
those
questions
on
two
or
three
occasions
last
week
as
well,
and
and
look
forward
to
their
presentation
today
and
they're
being
very
responsive
to
members
of
the
legislature.
Again,
I
couldn't
be
more
pleased
that
we
were
able
to
make
the
commitment
we
were
able
to
make
and
actually
deliver
on
it.
11
million
surgical
masks.
B
We
are
able
to
distribute
to
get
to
our
child
care
facilities,
to
get
to
our
in-home
supportive
service
workers
and
to
make
sure
that
they're
protected
to
get
half
a
million
into
our
public
education
system,
4.2
million
to
farmworkers
and
in
the
AG
community.
So
the
good
news
is,
we
are
making
real
progress
in
terms
of
being
able
to
procure
the
PPE
and
now
distribute
the
PPE,
and
that
will
allow
us
to
move
forward
with
additional
announcements
on
the
stay
at
home
order
and
meaningful
modifications
to
our
economy
over
the
course
of
the
next
days.
B
B
We
all
were
living
in
every
state
in
this
country,
so
many
cities,
not
just
the
federal
government
and
I-
imagine
that
wall
so
I
hope
and
expect
that
we'll
be
also
part
of
the
spirit
of
the
conversations
they
have
today,
a
recognition
of
the
time
we
were
in
and
where
we
are
today
and
all
the
progress
we're
making.
So
with
that,
let
me
just
thank
everybody
for
that
progress
because
foundationally
in
fundamentally
it's
because
of
the
work
of
40
million
Californians
that
have
overwhelmingly
met
the
moment
that
we
are
making
progress
in
the
state.
B
70
percent
of
this
economy
now
open
meaningful
modifications
continuing
to
be
made
on
a
regional
basis
and
even
with
some
of
these
headline,
generating
issues
and
events,
I'm
confident
we'll
work
through
those
in
the
days
and
weeks.
But
we
are
entering
in
the
face
of
this
recovery
where
we're
going
to
have
plenty
to
talk
about
plenty
of
the
debate.
Plenty.
B
It's
a
dialogue
about
this
is
a
dialectic
going
back
and
forth,
but
again,
there's
just
one
constant
and
that's
the
vigilance
guided
by
Public
Health
and
guided
by
the
data
and
guided
by
these
foundational
indicators
around
testing
tracing
our
ability
to
track
the
old
hospital
surge,
protect
our
employees,
protect
customers
and
do
justice
to
all
of
these
efforts
so
that
we
can
build
confidence
once
again
and
that
confidence
will
in
turn,
allow
this
economy
to
rebound.
Not
just
survive
this
pandemic,
but
to
thrive.
B
Many
many
years
so
looking
forward
to
further
conversations
in
that
space,
including
tomorrow,
some
updates
on
testing
and
some
of
these
variations
and
again
wanted
to
thank
everybody
for
all
of
your
outstanding
work.
Stay
healthy,
stay,
safe
and
continue.
Do
you
can
to
practice
physical
distancing
and
wear
face
coverings
when
that
is
more
challenging?
Take
care
everybody.
