This is NSPR’s weekday show about the local and regional effects of COVID-19 in the North State. Listen each weekday at 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 a.m. NSPR will continue this special coverage as long as our community needs it. Our mission with this show is to provide accurate news and information about COVID-19 for the North State.
Today, we’re continuing to follow the story about how and when California’s stay at home order might be lifted. Many in the North State want that to happen now, but the state says not yet. We’ll hear from Assemblyman James Gallagher, who recently sent a letter to the Governor asking that local rural authorities be given the power to ease restrictions. We’ll also hear from Lt. Governor Eleni Kounalakis about why the state hasn’t said yes to that request and check in on where the state is with testing.
If you have questions for us let us know on our message line at 433-9216 or go to our website at mynspr.org.
For Thursday, April 30, 2020 This is special coverage from North State Public Radio.
