CORONAVIRUS IN CALIFORNIA: Map shows which counties can, can't reopen under Newsom's new 4-tier system
Last week, 11 California counties were moved to a less restrictive tier. Butte, Contra Costa, Fresno, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Santa Barbara and Yolo counties were all moved from "purple" to "red." Amador, Calaveras, San Francisco and Sierra counties were moved from "red" to "orange."
Newsom is also expected to give an update on the two-week reset period for EDD that ended on Monday. More than 3 million Californians are expected to receive lost wages assistance payments by the end of this week after the reset period aimed at tackling "fraud" and reducing their backlog.
He's also expected to address the wildfires burning in the state. The governor was in Napa County last week to view the damage from the Glass Fire firsthand.
The wildfire continues to grow in Napa and Sonoma Counties. It's burned close to 65,580 acres. Right now, it is 30% contained.
He promised to seek a long-term solution to California's wildfire problem once immediate fire suppression was complete.
