California Gov. Gavin Newsom will deliver his annual State of the State address in Sacramento Tuesday, and he'll deliver the address in front of an audience of state lawmakers for the first time in two years.
Last year’s speech focused mainly on the pandemic. Newsom delivered it at an empty Dodgers Stadium in Los Angeles as the state’s vaccine campaign was picking up steam.
The year before, homelessness was the top issue. This year’s speech will likely touch on both.
A recent UC Berkeley poll showed only 47% of Californians approve of Newsom’s job performance, with 66% saying he is doing a poor job on homelessness. That’s up double digits from two years ago.
Cap Radio will carry the governor's address live and provide analysis starting at 5 p.m.
