‘Too busy enjoying the freedom’: DeSantis team scoffs at Newsom ad
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/04/22 | Heather Hamilton

Posted on 07/04/2022 3:46:05 PM PDT by Libloather

Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) team is scoffing at Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) Independence Day ad that encourages Florida residents to move out west to his state.

Dave Abrams, a spokesman for DeSantis’s reelection campaign, said that Florida voters are not likely impressed by Newsom’s handling of California.

“The people of Florida pay no mind to the pathetic smear campaigns from the Democrats and their allies in the corporate media,” Abrams told the Daily Wire. “We’re too busy enjoying the freedom Gov. Ron DeSantis has created in the Sunshine State.”

The ad, paid for by Newsom’s reelection campaign, has incited early speculation of a 2024 presidential showdown between the two governors.

“It’s Independence Day - so let’s talk about what’s going on in America,” Newsom said in the ad, which he tweeted out on Sunday. “Freedom is under attack in your state.”

“Gavin Newsom might as well light a pile of cash on fire,” Abrams said. “Pass the popcorn for his desperate attempt to win back the California refugees who fled the hellhole he created in his state to come to Florida.”

The ad comes as more than 360,000 people left California in 2021 and moved to places such as Florida due to affordability and access to jobs, among other things.

Both governors’ names have been tossed around as potential 2024 presidential candidates.

Newsome is running a ploy to entice DeSantis because they are terrified of DJT and us, his supporters.

Anyone who thinks CA is more free than Florida should be given help packing and their first tank of gas for the trip for free.
Get...rid...of....them

CA spends 50% more per capita than FL and provides deplorable public services for that.

Someone is paying the taxes for that. It certainly isn’t the homeless or the illegal aliens.

COVID-19 rules are changing in California schools: What parents should expect when class returns BY SAWSAN MORRAR UPDATED JUNE 13, 2022 5:31 PM.

Later COVID-19 update: State issues updated guidance ahead of new school year
Staff reports June 30, 2022

State Department of Public Health issues new guidance ahead of upcoming school year
State health officials on Thursday released new guidance to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 on K-12 campuses in the 2022-23 school year.

The latest guidelines from the California Department of Public Health, which are set to take effect on Friday, July 1, include updated considerations and mitigation strategies that are further broken down into required actions and recommended actions.

Here are a few key takeaways:

Unless otherwise directed by local health departments or educational agencies, students and staff should follow the same masking guidance that the CDPH has issued for the general public. No individual can be prevented from wearing a mask as a condition of participation in an activity or entry into a school — unless wearing a mask would pose a safety hazard, like during water sports. Schools are required to provide face coverings to students who inadvertently fail to bring them but want to use one.

Families should notify schools if their child has COVID-19 and was on school grounds during their infectious period. Schools should, in turn, notify the families of students who spent more than 15 cumulative minutes within a 24-hour time period in a shared indoor airspace. These steps fall under “recommended actions.”

Effective ventilation and filtration systems can curb the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases, according to the CDPH, which has issued specific recommendations for improving air quality in schools. “It may also protect students and staff from exposure to wildfire smoke and other airborne allergens and pollutants,” the document says.

Schools are encouraged to ensure access to COVID-19 testing for students and staff, particularly for vulnerable communities. The CDPH recommends that antigen tests be considered the primary option for detecting COVID-19 in schools, as opposed to PCR tests.
Vaccinations remain an important tool in preventing serious illnesses. The state strongly recommends that all eligible individuals get vaccinated against COVID-19 and remain up to date.

All employees in K-12 school settings will still have to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or get tested at least once weekly with either PCR or antigen tests based on a previous health order that was issued last August by State Public Health Officer and CDPH Director Dr. Tomás J. Aragón.

Since the summer of 2020, the state’s Department of Public Health has regularly updated its guidance for TK-12 schools based on statewide trends and the latest recommendations from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The latest COVID-19 Public Health Guidance for K-12 Schools can be found on the CDPH website.

Most schools no longer require masks. They’ve also moved away from requiring their employees to participate in contact tracing. Now they send general notices to families about possible exposures instead of identifying students and compelling them to quarantine.

I moved to Florida to get away from the 5% state income tax in my home state. There’s no way I’m moving to a state with a 10% income tax rate.

DeSantis can’t say this out loud, but it’s the best thing for Florida if those buying what Newsom is selling leave Florida.
