“The one thing I am certain of is: There’s uncertainty in the future,” said California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday at an event to pick winners in the state’s lottery-style Covid-19 vaccination incentive program.
Asked if he would, on June 15, lift the state of emergency that has given him the extraordinary powers to mandate such restrictions, the governor said, “The emergency remains in effect after June 15.” That date is Newsom’s own self-declared deadline to lift most Covid restrictions.
Newsom was also pressed repeatedly at the event to clarify what some called the “confusing” recommendation of a CalOSHA board the night before. After a seven-hour public meeting, the board seemed to approve recommending masks be required in the workplace if everyone is not vaccinated. That would leave mask requirements in place past Newsom’s stated deadline to lift most Covid restrictions. It would also seem to penalize unvaccinated workers. The board set up a subcommittee to further study the issue.
“The dust is settling. They’ve got a subcommittee that’s meeting to follow up on some of the work. They’re moving in the right direction,” he said.
To Californians who thought they were getting the summer off from Covid-19 restrictions but now feel whiplashed by the prospect of continued masking in workplaces, Newsom said, “We’re working through this. This is the sausage-making process. We’ve already had a number of conversations earlier this morning about people’s feelings about what happened last night. I think it’s helpful that the governor is not dictating and mandating those decisions in advance…We are in an iterative process of engagement…We hope to let folks know more about our next steps very shortly.”
“Face coverings remain an important part of our arsenal to fight this disease,” reminded Newsom.

Two slithering rattlesnakes that deserve each other.
Why not double down? With the corrupt voting set-up he has it’s not like anyone can vote him out.
A constitutional amendment is needed, that forbids any “state of emergency” longer than perhaps 30 days, from the president or any governor, without being actively renewed by a recorded vote of congress, or the respective state legislature, every subsequent 30 days. It it must be a recorded vote of 50% plus one of all SEATS in the legislature voting “aye”. Make our supposed “representatives” take responsibility for this BS.
Just the conservatives, please.
This is up to the people, not a GD commie dictator.
No one person should have that level of power to control the lives of so many people at their whim.
dirty rat basta%^ is moving the goal posts again, recall can’t come fast enough
How can newsom be certain of uncertainty in the future if the future is uncertain?
