THE BUZZ
— Two political truisms to start your day: Campaigning is easier than governing, and a reason thorny issues endure is that they rarely have easy solutions.
We were thinking about both principals on Wednesday as Gov. Gavin Newsom’s would-be Republican rivals continued to lambaste him over schools

California's climate goals likely out of reach

Stark disparities in campus reopenings

As California’s impasse over reopening schools drags on, its disparities are becoming clearer. Among the state’s richest schools, nearly 7 in 10 elementary school students attend a district offering some form of in-person learning — compared to less than 1 in 10 students in districts with the highest poverty, according to an analysis of state data from CalMatters’ Ricardo Cano and Jeremia Kimelman. And the discrepancy between public and private schools is just as stark. Here’s a closer look at the numbers:

Tensions over school closings/reopenings ramp up — The Sacramento Observer


February 19, 2021 by CALmatters
(CALMATTERS) – Top Democratic lawmakers dealt a political blow to Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday by unveiling a school reopening package without his input — a move to which the governor did not take kindly.

The bold step suggests that Newsom and lawmakers have significantly different interpretations of what’s necessary to get kids back in the classroom, especially when it comes to vaccines. The package introduced by three Democratic Assemblymembers would require local public health departments to offer vaccines to on-site school employees, while Newsom’s plan, introduced in December, maintains vaccinations aren’t a prerequisite to reopening.

Where is California's school reopening plan?

Blue Shield takes over vaccine system

California on Monday released its long-awaited contract with Blue Shield, the insurance giant now running the state’s new vaccine distribution system. Under the terms of the contract, Blue Shield will determine which providers can administer vaccine, develop an “allocation algorithm” based on equity and other factors, and centralize vaccination data. California will pay Blue Shield a maximum of $15 million for third-party costs and expenses, according to the contract, which also set goals for the new system, including:

Inside California's major shift in vaccine strategy

Good morning, California. It’s Wednesday, January 27.
State takes reins
Six weeks into a vaccine rollout largely left to the counties, California is taking the helm in an attempt to streamline a chaotic and fragmented process that has resulted in one of the nation’s lowest rates of vaccine administration.
The new strategy, which state health officials unveiled Tuesday, upends months of planning by numerous working groups. It also appears to be a work in progress: Details are scarce, and numerous components won’t be finalized until next month at the earliest. Here’s a closer look at the strategy’s three main prongs:

A new era for California? Newsom asks Biden for aid


What a difference a day makes.
On Tuesday, California was still wrangling with the Trump administration, as evidenced by nine final-hour lawsuits filed by Attorney General Xavier Becerra — bringing his four-year total to a staggering 122 lawsuits.
Today, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be sworn in as president and vice president of the United States, ushering in what many California Democrats hope will be a new era of less contention and more collaboration. Hours later, Harris is expected to swear in Alex Padilla as California’s first Latino senator. (For more on what Padilla hopes to accomplish, check out his interview with CalMatters’ Laurel Rosenhall.) And the Golden State could gain yet another powerful ally in Washington if the Senate confirms Becerra as Health and Human Services secretary.
