How To Watch California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s State Of The State Speech On Tuesday

A little more than a month after opening with much fanfare from California Governor Gavin Newsom, the large-scale vaccination site at Cal State Los Angeles will cease operations on April 11, federal and state officials managing the location announced today.

“Our only constraint is manufactured supply,” said California Governor Gavin Newsom on Thursday. “With the expectation that more supply will be made available,” he continued, “that expectation has set up a framework where today we are announcing that we are modifying, in a stair-stepped manner, our eligibility for doses here in the state.”

California will be expanding vaccine eligibility to all residents 16 and older on April 15, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Thursday.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced on Thursday that the state will, on April 1, extend Covid-19 vaccine eligibility to everyone aged 50 and older, then to everyone aged 16 and older on April 15. Those plans jive with the hints Newsom has given about basing the state’s vaccination plan going forward on age. They also agree with the CDC’s recommendation for a Phase 2 vaccination pool including everyone over the age of 16.

What should have been a triumphal media moment for California Governor Gavin Newsom was scuttled on Wednesday by technical difficulties. Newsom had set his first televised press conference in at least two weeks to announce his much-anticipated pick to replace Xavier Becerra as the state’s attorney general.

“This system is an old, 30-year-old system,” said Governor Gavin Newsom about California’s online unemployment system after it was revealed to be massively defective in a state report last September. Newsom at the time sought to frame the issues in terms of outdated technology, not incompetence. The computers and software that make it up “need to be strewn to the waste bin of history,” he said.

“We’re anticipating within five-and-a-half weeks where we can eliminate all of the tiering,” said California Governor Gavin Newsom on Friday, “and make available vaccines to everybody across the spectrum because supply will exponentially increase.”

For the second week running, a large group of California’s most-populous counties are moving from the most restrictive Purple tier of Governor Gavin Newsom’s reopening program to the less restrictive Red tier.

California Governor Gavin Newsom made headlines last night when he told MSNBC’s Joy Reid that he would appoint an African American woman to succeed Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) should she resign her seat.

Vice President Kamala Harris called California Governor Gavin Newsom as she boarded Air Force Two in Las Vegas on its way to Los Angeles.

Governor Gavin Newsom has been seeking to reassure Californians that, as more and more of them get vaccinated, there is a “bright light is at the end of the tunnel.”

Apparently realizing that the recall effort against him will indeed prompt a vote, California Governor Gavin Newsom and his political allies have launched their own counter campaign.

Los Angeles County will officially move into the state’s less-restrictive “Red” tier Monday, with the state achieving a milestone of 2 million COVID-19 vaccine doses in hard-hit communities and triggering an easing of requirements for counties to advance in Governor Gavin Newsom’s economic-reopening blueprint.

California Governor Gavin Newsom reflected on the state's journey through the pandemic on Tuesday in a speech from Dodger Stadium. “I think it’s important we consider where we are," said Newsom, noting that instead of sports fans in the stands, there are now nurses in PPE safety gear.

Facing an almost certain recall and harsh criticism over his handling of the coronavirus pandemic and vaccination rollout, California Governor Gavin Newsom was in full campaign mode tonight in his third annual State of the State speech.

Los Angeles County on Tuesday qualified for the red tier of Governor Gavin Newsom’s Covid-19 reopening plan. It’s the first time since the governor introduced his Blueprint for a Safer Economy that the state’s largest county has qualified to move out of the most restrictive purple tier and into the red. If LA can maintain its numbers for just more week, a slew of businesses will be able to reopen, including movie theaters — to 25% capacity or 100 people, whichever is less.

“I want to highlight farm workers. I want to highlight women, children, caregivers and a bright future for California,” said Governor Gavin Newsom when asked on Monday about the State of the State speech he will deliver Tuesday.

“We will be doubling down on mask wearing,” said California Governor Gavin Newsom on Thursday, “not arguing to follow the example of Texas and other states that I think are making a terrible mistake.”

Southern California counties and others across the state could be cleared to open more businesses and lift other restrictions sooner than anticipated under a plan announced on Thursday by Governor Gavin Newsom.
