Afternoon
everybody
I'll
jump
right
in.
We
have
a
busy
update
here
today,
nothing
more
pressing
than
the
activity
in
northern
california
over
the
course.
The
last
24
to
36
hours,
particularly
two
new
active
wildfires
that
we're
monitoring
and
putting
a
tremendous
amount
of
resource
and
investment
in
and
that's
the
glass
fire
in
napa
county
and
the
zog
fire
in
shasta
county.
The
glass
fire
grew
substantially
overnight,
roughly
800
acres
to
11,
000
acres,
a
substantial
number
of
structures
have
been
damaged,
wineries
and
other
structures
in
and
around
the
area,
familiar
evacuation
orders
and
a
challenge.
C
Right
now,
that's
been
made
more
acute
because
of
overnight
winds.
Those
winds
will
maintain
themselves
they'll
begin
to
dissipate
later
in
the
afternoon
stabilize
overnight,
which
should
help
with
our
efforts
to
take
advantage
of
those
conditions
and
move
to
advance
our
containment
efforts,
but
nonetheless,
an
active
wildfire,
generating
a
lot
of
attention
appropriately.
So
a
lot
of
consternation
in
and
around
that
region
that
has
been
hit
over
and
over
and
over
again
over
the
course
of
the
last
number
of
years.
C
The
zog
fire
up
in
shasta
county
also
familiar
territory
literally,
not
just
figuratively.
Seven
thousand
acres
so
far
have
burned,
consider
back
to
2017
in
the
carr
fire.
This
is
in
and
around
those
areas
it's
likely
the
zog
fire
may
make
its
well
way
into
the
august
complex
I'll,
update
you
in
a
moment
on
the
august.
Complex
remains
the
largest
wildfire
in
terms
of
total
acreage
burned
in
california's
history,
but
the
glass
and
zog
fires
remain
top
of
mind
for
us.
C
C
still
remain
vigilant
with
over
18
000
firefighters
actively
working.
These
complexes
27
complexes
in
total
that
are
currently
being
suppressed,
actively
engaged
in
our
suppression
efforts,
some
7
100
structures
destroyed
and
those
are
the
structures
that
we've
been
able
to
identify
recognizing
that
number.
Thus,
the
plus
sign
you
see
there
likely
is
to
increase
significantly
26
fatalities
tragically
so
far
in
this
historic
wildfire
season.
C
This
season
has
included
these
active
wildfires.
I
referenced
august
being
the
largest
in
california's
recorded
history.
Last
update
was
34
percent
contained
some
846
000
acres
had
been
burned.
Total
amount
of
acreage
burned
has
grown
not
substantially
modestly
to
878
000
acres,
now
45
percent
contained,
so
they
are
making
progress
on
the
august
fire
with
these
winds
beginning
to
subside
to
die
down
a
little
bit
over
the
course
of
the
afternoon
into
the
early
evening.
That
will
help
advance
some
of
our
efforts
in
this
complex.
C
The
northern
complex,
the
plumas
lassen
area
of
the
state.
Some
64
contained
this
time.
Last
week
now,
78
contained
you
see,
the
total
number
of
acreants
burned
has
increased
modestly
progress
being
made
in
that
northern
complex,
the
creek
fire
that
large
fire
substantially
impacted
by
a
hundred
plus
million
dead
trees
in
the
area.
It's
a
federal
fire,
though
it's
bled
into
an
instant
command.
That's
joined
with
cal
fire
and
the
u.s
forest
service,
meaning
a
joint
command.
278
thousand
acres
were
burned
27
contained
last
week.
C
We
made
a
little
progress,
39
containment
and
you
could
see
the
total
acreage
burn
beginning
to
subside,
meaning
we're
seeing
a
plateauing
of
the
growth
of
that
fire.
Again
still,
a
stubborn
fire
substantially
impacted
because
of
that
five-year,
historic
drought,
the
number
of
trees
that
are
burned
and
some
of
the
territory
that
it's
being
packed
is
very
difficult
terrain
for
our
firefighters
to
work,
but
progress
nonetheless,
in
that
area,
again
around
fresno
and
madera.
C
Finally,
just
for
the
purpose
of
update,
I
won't
go
through
all
27
complexes,
but
I
wanted
to
update
some
real
progress
on
containment
in
la
county
and
the
bobcat
fire.
Just
last
week,
fifteen
percent
contained
hundred
thousand
plus
acres
today,
62
percent
contained
cal.
Fire
has
done
a
wonderful
job
on
that
fire
with
their
mutual
aid
system.
Again
that
was
a
stubborn,
stubborn
fire
for
a
week
plus,
but
that
containment
now
has
gone
up
over
the
weekend
over
the
course
of
this
last
week.
C
Substantial
progress
in
that
effort,
and
so
that's
update
on
our
wildfires,
continue
to
be
top
of
mind
as
we're
now
moving
in
to
the
peak
of
the
wildfire
season.
This
is
a
time
of
year.
You
start
to
experience
the
santa
ana
winds
down
in
southern
california,
which
we'll
see
some
activity
later
this
afternoon
overnight
into
the
early
part
of
tomorrow.
So
we're
monitoring
that
and
a
lot
of
pre-positioned
assets,
a
lot
of
vigilance
related
to
those
santa
ana
winds
very
familiar
to
the
people
in
southern
california.
But
you
combine
the
heat.
C
You
could
buy
the
dry
dryness.
You
combine
all
the
other
activity
that
has
led
to
this
historic
wildfire
season.
Clearly
we
are
maintaining
our
vigilance
and
that
remains
a
top
area
focus
in
this
state.
Northern
california.
As
I
said
the
wind's
beginning
to
die
down
as
the
rest
of
the
day,
we
move
through
the
rest
of
the
day,
very
hot
temperatures,
very
dry
conditions,
and
that
means
we
have
a
chance
at
least
to
get
some
more
aircraft
in
dc
tens.
C
The
747s
become
very
familiar
to
people
here
in
the
state
of
california,
117
aircrafts
now
working
these
fires
all
throughout
the
state
of
california
mutual
aid
system,
where
we've
now
requested
more
additional
resources.
Above
and
beyond
the
resources
we
have
from
six
different
states,
but
we
are
again
fully
operationalized
in
terms
of
the
well
resourced
and
very
abundant
mutual
aid
system.
That
many
of
you
become
very
very
familiar
with.
C
I
want
to
just
thank
administration
fema
for
securing
two
f-mags
in
those,
the
zag
fire
and
the
new
fire
in
napa
county,
the
glass
fire
we're
pleased
to
have
received
those
overnight.
C
We
have
additional
emergency
declarations
in
to
the
white
house,
more
broadly,
as
it
relates
to
addressing
the
needs
of
individuals
and
businesses
and
counties
and
communities
torn
apart
because
of
some
of
these
other
active
wildfires
in
the
state,
as
it
relates
to
putting
out
fires
of
figurative
terms,
we're
trying
to
do
what
we
can
to
maintain
the
progress
as
it
relates
to
the
spread
and
transmission
of
covet
19.
Here
in
the
state,
you
see
the
latest
numbers:
2
955
individuals,
as
of
september
27th,
testing
positive
for
cova
19.
C
that
is
lower
than
the
seven
day
average
of
3367.
we're
seeing
real
progress
in
total
number
of
tests,
beginning
to
go
back
up
as
we'd
be
able
to
navigate
some
of
the
challenges
associated
with
the
heat
wave
and
some
of
these
other
fire
complexes,
impacting
our
daily
average
of
total
number
of
tests
conducted.
But
you
see
that
number
coming
back
up
north
of
116
000
over
the
weekend
was
north
of
150
000,
both
on
saturday
and
sunday.
The
good
news
is,
the
positivity
rate
continues
to
trend
downward
2.8
percent
positivity
rate
over
a
14-day
period.
C
You
could
take
a
look
at
where
we
were
14
days
ago,
with
3.6
positivity
and
now
down
to
2.8
percent.
The
7-day
is
slightly
higher
than
the
day
and
I'm
going
to
get
to
that
in
a
moment
at
2.9
percent,
but
nonetheless
we're
seeing
a
continuation
of
the
decline
that
occurs,
of
course,
not
surprisingly,
not
only
in
the
positivity
rate
but
you're.
Seeing
the
hospitalization
numbers
here
in
the
state.
A
20
percent
decrease
over
the
course
of
the
last
14
days,
icu
emissions
tracking
simile
at
21
decrease.
C
I
say
all
of
this
with
a
point
of
consideration
and
caution,
though,
that
caution
has
brought
to
bear
that
consideration.
Rather
not
caution
is
brought
to
bear
some
progress
with
these
county
tier
reports.
Tomorrow,
you'll
get
an
update
from
dr
galley
every
tuesday
on
our
tier
status.
C
I
could
preview
that
we
anticipate
a
number
of
counties
moving
and
progressing
into
new
tiers,
which
is
a
very
encouraging
sign.
You've
seen
just
in
the
last
few
weeks,
we
had
38
counties
in
purple
nine
counties
in
red.
You
could
see
today
25
counties
in
purple,
less
good
news
more
in
red
more
in
orange.
C
We
anticipate
some
more
counties
tomorrow,
moving
into
yellow
tiered
status,
so
again,
as
we
move
away
from
red
into
orange
and
yellow
more
and
more
opportunity
to
modify
our
conditions
as
it
relates
to
business
activity
but,
as
I
said,
there's
some
points
of
consideration
and
caution
in
these
numbers,
and
I
want
to
just
focus
on
that
briefly
here
for
a
moment.
While
it's
true,
we
have
seen
a
three-fold
decrease
in
the
total
number
of
cases.
C
Since
our
peak
mid-july,
we
are
seeing
early
signs
that
those
decreases
are
beginning
to
slow
down
they're
beginning
to
plateau,
as
it
relates
to
total
number
of
new
cases.
What
concerns
us
more?
It's
not
just
the
plateauing
of
cases
again
seeing
decrease,
but
a
plateauing,
but
it's
some
regions
that
are
beginning
to
see
an
upward
trend
in
what
we
refer
to
and
what
is
commonly
referred
to
by
our
health
representatives
and
that's
the
are
effective.
C
Let's
take
a
look
here
at
three
different
areas
of
the
state
where
we
are
seeing
some
increases,
not
necessarily
in
cases
but
in
terms
of
the
are
effective
here
at
0.95
percent
you'll,
see
in
the
bay
area,
alameda,
contra,
costa,
santa
clara.
Among
many
counties.
You
can
see
that
trend
line
where
the
last
few
weeks,
the
r
effective,
is
beginning
to
march
back
up
that
straight
line
is
the
r
effective
of
one
anything
north.
Of
that
we
can
start
seeing
an
increase
in
cases.
C
C
This
is
a
0.97
are
effective
in
these
ensembles
of
counties,
our
assemblage
of
counties
that
we
put
forward
those
include
san
diego
county
as
well,
so
still
below
one
percent,
the
one
they
are
effective
one
rather,
but
nonetheless,
some
concerning
trend
lines,
the
last
seven,
eight
nine
ten
days
as
it
relates
increase
bar
effective.
Let
me
underscore
that
trend
of
concern,
and
this
is
what
we
refer
to
lazily
as
the
upper
southern
california
area
more
difficult
to
quantify.
C
When
you
see
sort
of
the
ensemble
of
counties
that
we
included
here
central
coast,
a
little
bit
of
central
valley
and
the
sort
of
northern
part
of
l.a,
what
we
refer
to
as
upper
southern
california,
this
r
effective
is
represented
on
the
slide
at
1.02
1.02
in
kern,
la
san,
luis,
obispo,
santa
barbara
and
ventura
county,
when
you
pull
them
all
together.
So
again,
some
concern
and
some
points
of
optimism
all
mixed
into
one.
C
But
it
is
simply
a
reminder
of
what
many
had
projected
and
predicted,
and
that
is,
we
have
just
come
through
difficulty
of
a
first
wave
but
the
anticipation
of
a
second
wave
of
this
pandemic
into
the
fall
season.
I
believe
this
morning
there
were
26
states
that
have
seen
an
increase
in
their
total
number
of
cases.
C
So
I
cannot
impress
upon
people
more
the
importance
of
remaining
vigilant,
the
importance
of
continuing
to
do
the
things
that
all
of
you
have
done
over
the
course
last
month
and
a
half
where
we
have
once
again
tamed
the
growth
of
the
transmission
rate
in
the
state
of
california.
Never
over
a
14-day
period
did
we
present
north
of
eight
percent
positivity
rate
substantially
better
than
the
vast
majority
of
states
in
the
southern
part
of
the
united
states.
C
Be
it
texas
and
arizona,
obviously
places
that
have
highlighted
case
rate
growth
like
florida,
but
we
did
experience
that
increase.
We
were
able
to
bring
those
numbers
down
below
three
percent,
but
this
our
effective
rate
is
a
point
of
caution
and
consideration,
as
it
relates
to
the
work
that
each
and
every
one
of
us
must
do
to
continue
to
see
a
decrease,
not
just
a
plateauing
of
transmission
rates.
C
Speaking
of
seeing
a
decrease
not
just
a
plateauing
of
rate
of
growth,
we
have
to
address
this
issue
of
homelessness
and
I
continue
to
maintain
a
vigilance
of
focus,
a
commitment
and
resolve
to
do
more
and
do
better
in
this
space
and
forgive
the
transition
from
wildfires
and
the
transition
the
crisis
of
covid,
but
I
would
pos
I
will.
I
certainly
argue
that
the
homeless
crisis
in
this
state
deserves
similar
attention
and
resolve
and
approach,
and
that's
why?
C
C
This
is
a
frame
towards
transitioning
people
into
some
sense
of
optimism
and
permanence
in
terms
of
moving
people
off
the
streets,
transitioning
them
and
getting
them
back
into
a
mindset
of
self-sufficiency
with
support
we
have
now
announced-
or
rather
we
are
announcing
today,
our
third
round
of
awards,
we've
already
now
awarded
450
million
dollars
over
3
300
new
units
that
will
come
up
in
very
short
order.
This
is
not
necessarily
new
construction.
C
This
is
about
innovation,
adaptation
and
I'll.
Give
you
some
examples
here
in
a
moment
where
this
new
round
this
third
round
of
137
million
dollars
of
awards
will
go
19
different
projects,
15
jurisdictions,
here's
just
a
sampling
of
some
of
those
jurisdictions
in
some
of
the
projects
and
some
of
the
innovation
that
we're
calling
for.
C
But
you
can
see
here
in
lake
county,
some
interim
housing
regarding
permanent
housing,
exits
to
larry,
county
to
hema,
mariposa
focused
on
seniors
and
individuals
with
disabilities,
you're,
seeing
innovation
in
every
part
of
the
state
and
you're
seeing
support
in
parts
of
the
state
that
haven't
received
support
from
the
state
of
california
in
the
past
to
invest
and
partner
with
local
counties
and
local,
well
local
jurisdictions
of
all
stripes,
be
it
cities,
not
just
counties
and
obviously
with
nonprofit
organizations
that
are
a
big
part
of
these
strategies.
C
Just
in
la
as
you
can
see
five
projects
that
we
are
investing
in
269
units
just
in
la
proper
long,
beach,
100
units,
santa
barbara,
an
office
conversion
project
into
permanent
housing
with
wraparound
service,
that's
an
area
of
focus,
an
area
of
innovation
and
including
partnerships
that
we're
advancing
puma,
indians,
a
band
of
pulmonaries
in
scotts
valley,
a
multi-family
residential
property
acquisition.
This
is
the
second
partnership
with
our
tribal
nations.
We
want
to
see
more
of
that
as
well.
Stockton,
I
want
to
thank
mayor.
C
Tubbs
he's
been
very,
very
innovative
in
his
approach
to
addressing
homelessness
in
his
city.
He
has
a
motel
conversion
was
waiting
for
this
announcement
today,
including
efforts
we're
making.
Similarly,
in
other
parts
of
the
state,
including
humboldt
where,
in
motel
conversion,
similar
motel
conversion
will
be
taking
place
very
very
shortly.
We
have
200
million
dollars,
and
this
is
very
exciting
from
at
least
my
perspective
and
vantage
point,
and
I
hope
from
yours
as
well.
C
We
have
found
unallocated
money,
c19
money,
meaning
covet
related
money,
200
million
dollars
of
additional
money
that
we
now
want
to
invest
in
our
home
key
funding.
This,
we
believe,
will
clear
the
wait
list
or
get
close.
I
don't
want
to
over
promise
here
but
close
to
clear
the
wait
list
for
projects
that
were
submitted,
this
unprecedented
number
of
projects
that
were
submitted
additional
20,
more
projects
pending
approval
of
the
joint
legislative
committee,
and
I
look
forward
to
getting
their
approval
and
very
grateful
for
the
partnership.
C
Holly
mitchell,
many
others
that
are
part
of
that
joint
legislative
committee
once
they
sign
off
on
this
additional
200
million
dollars.
We're
going
to
try
to
get
these
dollars
out
into
these
communities,
try
to
clear
as
much
of
that
wait
list
as
we
possibly
can.
That
will
put
us
at
over
800
million
dollars
in
just
a
few
weeks,
800
million
dollars
in
just
a
few
weeks
targeting
real
solutions,
tangible
and
short-term
solutions
that
will
provide
long-term
supports
for
homeless
individuals
in
this
state.
C
This
is
without
precedent
in
california's
history,
and
I
recognize
it's
not
good
enough
and
that's
why
I
look
forward
to
updating
you
on
a
consistent
basis
and
I
recognize
our
responsibility
to
do
more
and
that's
what
this
200
million
dollars
reflects.
Some
creativity
and
some
strategies
to
advance
just
that.
C
C
It's
been
impacted
by
a
myriad
of
issues,
be
it
floods
in
certain
parts
of
the
country,
fires
out
here
on
the
west
coast
and
clearly
been
impacted
by
what's
happened
with
covet
19.,
and
that's
why
it's
critical
absolutely
essential
that
all
of
us
participate
in
the
census,
and
I
say
now
because
we
don't
have
much
time
left
to
complete
our
census
forms
now.
C
The
current
court
decision
that
went
into
effect
pushed
back
against
efforts
by
the
current
administration
in
washington
d.c
to
end
the
census
immediately,
which
has
no
other
purpose
than
under
counting
the
number
of
american
citizens.
Citizens
deepening
a
divide
of
distrust
and
reducing
people's
voice
in
congress
representation
and
support.
C
D
Three,
quick
and
confidential
ways:
you
can
better
our
communities
simply
by
completing
the
2020
census.
Take
the
census
online
visit,
my2020census.gov
next
select,
star
questionnaire
and
answer
questions
about
your
household,
no
census
id
required.
Give
us
a
call.
You
can
complete
the
2020
census
by
phone
in
13
languages.
D
C
And
it
is
that
easy,
please
go
to
my2020census.gov
my2020census.gov
if
you
haven't
had
the
privilege,
our
collective
responsibility
as
individuals
as
active,
not
inert
citizens
to
participate
in
filling
out
that
census.
If
you
can't
go
online,
I
encourage
you
to
pick
up
the
phone
or
take
your
smartphone
844.
C
Three,
three:
zero,
twenty,
twenty,
eight
four,
four,
three,
three:
zero,
twenty
twenty
and
otherwise,
if
you
have
it,
it's
been
mailed
to
you
and
it's
sitting
there
on
your
kitchen
counter.
Maybe
you
can
dust
it
off,
fill
it
out,
send
it
in
we
have
until
october
30
at
the
end
of
october
october
31st.
C
I
believe
it
is,
though,
there's
efforts
again
to
deny
that
sooner,
but
we
have
just
a
number
of
weeks
left
and
want
to
encourage
all
of
you
to
fill
out
this
census
and
speaking
of
number
of
weeks
left
well
a
number
of
weeks
before
we
move
into
the
peak
of
our
flu
season,
flu
season,
you'll
tend
to
see
sort
of
acuity
in
terms
of
the
transmission
of
flu.
In
december
january,
flu
seasons
are
around
the
corner
or
even
seeing
some
early
signs
of
flu
already
bottom
line.
C
This
is
about
protecting
yourself
in
order
to
getting
by
getting
a
flu
shot.
You
protect
yourself
and
you
mitigate
the
impact
of
what
some
have
referred
to
as
the
twindemoc
of
a
potential
second
wave
of
cova
19
transmissions
and
the
flu
happening
concurrently,
putting
stress
putting
pressure
on
our
hospital
system
at
the
same
time,
draining
resources
and
impacting
the
quality
care
that
all
of
you
deserve
and
expect
of
our
health
care
delivery
system,
and
that's
why
getting
a
flu
shot
is
so
important.
I've
done
this
every
single
year.
C
As
long
as
I
can
remember,
it
is
a
simple
thing
to
do
and
getting
a
flu
shot
is
a
safe
thing
to
do
in
an
effort
to
demonstrate
how
simple
it
is
and
how
safe
it
is.
I
thought
I
would
just
take
advantage
of
the
moment
of
your
time
and
take
the
opportunity
to
get
a
flu
shot
here
and
and
demonstrate
what
safely
can
be
done
by
many
of
you
watching,
and
I
encourage
you
to
do
just
that,
and
so
I've
got
my
nurse
here.
C
My
doctor
and
I've
got
I've
got
the
right
shirt,
which
apparently
is
an
issue.
So,
let's
roll
up
the
sleeve
relax
all
right.
E
B
C
That
the
flu
season
is
just
around
the
corner,
and
so
I
cannot
impress
upon
you
more
the
importance
the
power
and
potency
of
getting
a
flu
shot,
mitigating
the
spread
and
transmission
of
not
only
the
flu,
but
as
well
impacting
our
ability
to
care
for
you,
your
loved
ones,
members
of
the
community,
as
it
relates
to
the
spread
of
covet
19.,
and
so
that
is
broadly,
where
we
are
this
year
in
terms
of
update,
or
rather
this
week
in
terms
of
an
update.
C
You
can
see
additional
information
here
on
this
slide
of
purpose
of
preventing
the
transmission
of
flu
and
the
broader
construct
of
helping
all
californians
stay
healthy.
We
encourage
you
to
do
the
same.
As
always.
We
end
by
reminding
you
of
power
and
potency
and
addressing
not
only
the
issue
of
the
flu
but
addressing
transmission
of
cobalt
19
of
wearing
a
mask.
C
It's
an
interesting
point
that
in
the
southern
hemisphere
of
of
this
country,
rather
in
the
world
southern
hemisphere
in
places
like
chile
places
like
australia
in
south
africa,
they
saw
a
relatively
mild
flu
season
because
of
people's
ability
to
address
not
only
the
transmission
of
covet
19
but,
as
a
consequence,
the
benefits
of
doing
so
by
wearing
a
mask
transmission
of
the
flu
so
practicing
physical,
distancing,
washing
your
hands,
minimizing,
mixing
and
wearing
these
masks
will
also
help
us
with
flu
season,
not
just
with
transmission
of
covet
19..
C
F
Hey
governor
thanks
for
giving
us
some
time,
you
have
been
among
many
democrats
who
have
warned
about
what
the
impact
of
a
conservative
justice
on
the
supreme
court
would
be.
I
was
hoping
you
could
talk
with
a
little
more
specificity
about
some
california
policies,
particularly
parts
of
your
agenda
that
you
fear
could
be
endangered
by
a
conservative
justice.
Yeah.
C
I'm
very
concerned,
I'm
concerned
clearly
about
tens
of
millions
of
people
that
have
pre-existing
condition
protections
because
of
the
aca,
the
expansion
of
the
medicaid
system
in
this
country
and
the
impact
that
could
have
millions
of
people
losing
the
ability
to
get
quality
health
care.
As
a
consequence
of
the
aca,
I'm
worried
about
the
environment,
the
clean
air
worried
about
clean
water,
I'm
worried
about
the
capacity
for
states
like
california
to
continue
to
lead
not
just
this
nation
but
lead
the
world
in
terms
of
low-carbon
green
growth.
I'm
worried
broadly
about
protecting
minority
communities.
C
6-3,
ideologically
conservative
majority
could
be
impactful
on
all
those
issues
and
more
for
decades.
Potentially,
to
come,
so
this
is
a
profound
moment
in
our
nation's
history,
and
I
know
that
all
of
us
are
anxious.
At
least
those
of
us
that
share
concerns
about
the
stacking
of
the
court
from
an
ideological
bent
and
obviously
makes
this
election
even
more
essential
and
more
important.
H
Thank
you
governor.
I
have
two
questions.
First.
Well,
you
know,
while
the
coronavirus
numbers
have
been
improving.
Dr
galley
warned
last
week
of
an
expected
increase
in
cases
and
a
potential
89
jump
in
hospitalizations
in
the
next
month.
Now,
in
some
counties
I
mean
that
could
mean
businesses
again
have
to
close
or
restrict
services.
So
what
do
you
say
to
those
business
owners
who
say
they
can't
survive
a
third
shutdown
and
secondly,
as
more
schools
are
now
offering
classroom
instruction?
Have
you
and
the
first
partner
decided
whether
your
children
will
attend
school
in
person?
H
C
It
depends
when
the
school
makes
a
decision
about
whether
or
not
they
can
move
in
that
direction.
Based
on
concurrence
with
the
county,
there
are
hundreds
of
schools,
I
think
north
of
600,
the
last
I
checked,
though
I'll
happily
update
you
on
that
number
that
have
received
waivers
from
all
over
the
state
of
california
in
elementary
schools,
my
kids
oldest
just
turned
11
youngest
is
four
so
we're
in
that
category
broadly.
C
But
beyond
that,
I
have
no
update
for
you,
as
relates
to
my
specific
status
and
my
family,
as
it
relates
to
the
broader
issue
of
transmission.
I
would
say
to
all
the
business,
men
and
women.
I
would
tell
all
the
entrepreneurs
and
parents
included
that
we
we
maintain
our
vigilance.
If
we
continue
to
practice
physical,
distancing
and
social
distancing,
we
minimize
mixing.
C
If
we
abide
by
these
mask
mandates,
then
we
can
substantially
address
the
concerns
that
you
raised
in
your
inquiry
and
that's
fundamental
and
foundational.
We
all
need
to
maintain
our
vigilance
as
we
modify
as
we
make
progress
and
we
are
making
progress.
You
will
hear
dr
galley
tomorrow
update
you
on
the
tiered
status.
C
Many
new
counties
are
moving
into
new
tiers
that
will
allow
them
to
modify
with
modification
to
begin
to
reopen
businesses
and
the
like
that.
We
do
so
safely,
and
we
do
so
with
our
eyes
wide
open
that
we
again
are
moving
in
to
the
fall,
and
so
if
people
can
take
seriously
and
not
let
their
guard
down.
Take
seriously
this
moment
as
we
transition
through
the
fall
and
hopefully
into
spring,
where
we
have
a
vaccine,
and
we
can
turn
the
page
on
covet
19.
E
Thank
you
governor.
I
am
sorry
if
there's
a
little
bit
of
background
noise,
I
just
wanted
to
ask
you
sort
of
a
bigger
picture
and
pick
a
bigger
picture
question
on
healthcare-related
legislation.
I
understand,
even
if
it's
it's
more
of
a
broad
question,
not
necessarily
asking
about
a
specific
bill
with
lots
of
people
losing
their
health
care
right
now.
I
wonder
if
there's
anything
that
you're
gonna
do
this
year
from
abroad
perspective,
to
address
some
of
those
challenges
legislatively.
E
Is
there
anything
that
will
help
people
with
coverage
or
even
cost
cutting
measures
and
then
kind
of
looking
forward?
I
also
wanted
to
was
wondering
some
other
question
pitching
into
next
year.
Is
there
anything
realistically
on
the
health
care
cost
or
expansion
effort
that
will
be
realistically
possible?
That's
on
your
agenda
next
year.
C
Yeah
we're
committed
to
universal
health
care
in
the
state
of
california.
We
made
progress
to
advance
the
cause
of
not
only
physical
health
this
year,
but
also
brain
health,
new
parity
bill
package
of
mental
health
substance
abuse
reforms
that
I
signed
just
last
week
as
an
example
of
those
efforts.
C
We
are
committed
to
the
long
haul
of
not
only
reforming
our
medicaid
system
medi-cal
here
in
the
state
of
california
through
a
program
called
cal
aim
into
the
future,
was
delayed
because
of
budgetary
constraints
this
year,
but
that
reform
we
are
committed
to
advancing
over
the
course
of
the
next
few
years
to
reimagine
our
mental
health
and
physical
health
financing
system
funding
system,
incentive
system
prevention
system,
a
program
that
we
have
worked
hard
to
design
and
now
program
that
we
look
forward
to
advancing.
C
C
For
me,
my
administration
and
long-term
health
care
is
also
a
frame
of
concern
around
issues
of
seniors
as
well,
not
just
individuals
on
the
related
to
our
current
marketplace,
but
looking
long-term
at
bringing
down
the
cost
of
healthcare
and
addressing
the
needs
of
an
aging
and
grain
population.
So
all
of
that
is
on
the
agenda.
All
of
that
we
will
advance.
The
question
is:
where
is
the
economy?
C
Question
is
what
is
our
capacity
to
deliver
on
some
of
these
bold
ideas
and
that's
going
to
be
determined
by
a
number
of
issues
that
will
take
place,
or
rather
take
shape
over
the
course
of
the
next
number
of
months,
and
that's
around
macroeconomic
recovery
ability
to
mitigate
the
spread
and
transmission
of
this
disease?
That
will
aid
to
that
economic
recovery,
general
fund
revenue
and
who
the
next
president
of
the
united
states
is.
I
We
have
as
a
state
put
a
lot
of
money
and
effort
over
the
last
couple
of
years
into
trying
to
prepare
for
fire
seasons
to
reduce
the
the
likelihood
of
major
fires,
and
yet
we
are
now
seeing
fires,
even
in
areas
that
burned
within
the
last
five
years.
C
Yeah,
it's
an
opportunity.
I
appreciate
it
to
remind
you
of
some
of
the
commitments
we've
made
moving
forward
to
more
than
double
our
vegetation
management
in
the
state
of
california
to
finally
advance
the
cause
that
we
advanced
a
few
weeks
back,
a
partnership
with
the
u.s
forest
service
to
get
the
forest
service
to
address
the
57
percent
of
the
forested
land
in
the
state
of
california.
That's
under
their
jurisdiction,
3
percent.
Under
the
state's
jurisdiction.
C
We
have
been
investing
more
than
the
federal
government
and
more
to
invest
in
vegetation
forest
management
in
federal
lands
than
the
federal
government
themselves.
A
new
partnership
that
is
taking
shape
will
advance
a
more
coordinated
strategy
and
will
provide
more
resources
from
the
federal
government,
which
should
help
aid
and
advance
our
efforts
around
prevention.
Accordingly,
we
did
35
high-profile
projects
in
the
state
of
california.
We
were
able
to
complete
those
within
about
15
months.
Some
of
those
were
on
the
docket
10
15
years
to
be
completed.
C
We
were
able
to
get
them
done
in
10,
15
months,
we're
taking
that
spirit
and
we're
taking
that
proposal
and
we're
putting
it
to
scale,
and
this
is
a
specific
answer
to
your
question.
You'll
be
hearing
from
me
and
our
team
and
cal
fire
tom
porter
g,
porter
and
others
about
our
efforts
to
substantially
increase
the
prioritization
of
projects
and
recall.
C
The
prioritization
is
not
just
looking
at
vegetation
forest
management
projects
writ
large,
but
targeting
those
investments
from
a
socio-economic
perspective
from
a
perspective
of
communities
that
are
quote-unquote
most
vulnerable
and
could
have
most
impact
in
terms
of
structures
and
lives,
lost
ingress,
egress
issues
related
to
mobility,
and
so
you'll
be
hearing
a
lot
more
about
those
efforts
in
the
coming
weeks.
C
In
addition
to
that,
as
I
just
noted
I'm
putting
together
next
year's
budget
in
real
time,
we
put
an
historic
amount
of
money
in
the
budget
going
back
to
last
year,
the
brown
administration,
the
first
two
years
of
my
administration,
we're
going
to
do
more
still
to
invest
in
prevention,
pre
deployment
of
assets,
more
firefighters,
better
technology,
techno,
silva
technology,
which
was
part
of
our
if2
proposal
of
innovation,
has
really
aided
our
efforts
this
year
in
looking
at
predictive
fire
analysis
allowing
us
to
pre-position
assets
based
upon
weather
patterns
using
some
of
the
latest
technology,
we
have
infrared
technology,
new
cameras
that
have
been
deployed
not
only
by
the
state
but
by
the
ious
themselves.
C
More
still
coming
in
that
space
equipment,
that's
finally,
coming
online,
more
air
suppression
equipment,
more
traditional
equipment
that
has
been
procured
but
hasn't
been
yet
delivered.
That
is
being
delivered
this
year
next
year
and
more
still
to
come
after
that.
So
there's
a
lot
of
progress.
We're
not
standing
still
we're
not
just
victims
of
fate.
We
want
to
shape
this
future.
J
Hi
governor
thanks
so
much
for
taking
our
question
regarding
the
widespread
ev
mail
fraud,
the
task
force
was
not
instructed
to
look
into
fraud,
but
we've
now
tracked
thousands
of
addresses
where
people
are
getting
fraudulent
email,
edd
mail.
Have
you
requested
data
to
understand
just
how
widespread
this
is
and,
frankly,
how
many
millions
of
taxpayer
dollars
have
been
lost
so
far
and,
secondly,
governor
while
most
believe
fighting
homelessness
is
a
noble
cause?
J
C
We
have
over
close
to
quarter
of
a
trillion
dollars.
The
state
invests,
so
you
example
where
some
of
the
investment
mate
was
made
and
forgive
me,
but
it
was
six
or
seven
months
ago
that
I
believe
the
issue
of
homelessness
was
the
top
agenda
item
in
the
state
of
california.
People
from
all
political
stripes
in
every
part
of
the
state
demanding
the
state
do
more
and
do
better
in
that
space.
C
It
is
that
all
of
us
need
support
and
I'll
put
up
the
work
we've
done
on
essential
workers,
protecting
working
families,
protecting
those
with
sick
leave
and
workers,
comp
protections
and
providing
more
supports,
including
an
earned
income
tax
credit
which
no
other
state
in
america
has
come
close
to
advancing
getting
billion
plus
dollars
into
the
pockets
of
working
families
over
the
course
the
last
number
of
months
in
this
state.
C
So
we
we
have
a
series
of
efforts
that
we've
advanced
to
help
the
middle
class
and
working
families,
not
just
low-income
individuals,
not
just
people
that
have
fallen
through
the
cracks
defined
as
homeless
here
in
the
state
of
california,
and
if
I
may,
including
on
the
issue
of
health
care,
there's
no
state
in
america
that
has
advanced
more
support
for
middle
class
families,
earning
up
to
about
150
000
a
year
in
offsetting
the
costs
of
health
care
than
the
state
of
california.
That
was
something
we
did
last
year.
C
No
other
state
has
been
able
to
replicate
that
and
we
recognize
we
still
have
more
work
to
do
in
that
space.
But
it's
an
example
of
our
commitment
and
resolve
to
help
the
middle
class
to
help
working
folks,
not
just
help
people
again
that
are
struggling
out
in
the
streets
and
sidewalks
or
from
the
vagaries
of
a
a
pandemic
induced
recession,
where
they're
vulnerable
to
being
evicted
or
vulnerable
to
ending
up
on
the
streets
of
our
great
state.
K
Governor
you
said
last
week
that
you
support
a
ban
on
fracking
through
the
legislature,
but
that
would
be
a
tough
fight.
Even
among
democrats
and
lawmakers
say
you
need
to
get
involved
to
make
it
happen
in
a
way
that
we
haven't
really
seen
from
your
office.
So
how
involved
do
you
plan
to
be
in
that
legislative
battle?.
L
Hi
governor
the
secretary
of
state's
office
is
spending
35
million
dollars
on
a
voter
outreach
campaign
called
vote
space.
California,
that's
being
run
by
a
consulting
firm
that
supports
biden,
I'm
wondering
how
do
you
respond
to
questions
raised
by
republicans,
but
the
contract
was
pushed
through
illegitimately
yeah.
C
I
just
don't
know
the
details,
so
forgive
me
the
specific
contract
that
the
secretary
of
state's
office
has
put
out.
Let
me
look
into
that.
Happily
get
back
to
you.
Let
me
thank
everybody
for
their
time
and
attention.
Let
me
thank
all
of
you
that
continue
have
done
a
wonderful
job
to
mitigate
the
spread
and
growth
rate
of
coca-19.
Again,
I
cannot
impress
upon
us
more
when
you
look
at
these
are
effective
rates
starting
to
creep
back
up
the
importance
of
being
vigilant
importance
of
maintaining
our
vigilance
to
mitigate
the
spread.
C
The
dynamics
of
climate
change,
the
dynamics
as
it
relates
to
the
lack
of
forest
management
over
the
last
century
have
created
a
dynamic
of
real
concern,
as
it
relates
to
the
spread
of
these
wildfires
in
ferocious
ways,
and
that
just
reminds,
rather,
as
a
reminder,
should
be
to
everybody
to
take
seriously
those
evacuation
orders.
So
many
of
the
people
have
lost
their
lives,
were
just
cautious
in
terms
of
taking
seriously
those
orders.
We
really
really
cannot
say
it
enough.
C
Please
heed
local
law
enforcement,
please
listen
to
them
when
they
raise
that
alarm
bell
and
when
they
try
to
put
to
use
the
resources
at
bear
to
focus
on
the
fires,
not
just
focus
on
the
evacuations
and
so
evacuating
helps
us
mitigate
the
spread
of
these
fires
impacts.
Our
suppression,
efforts
in
a
very
tangible
and
real
way
allows
our
firefighters
to
do
what
they're
hired
to
do
first
and
foremost,
and
that's
to
get
out
and
save
your
property
and
save
your
lives.
