We’re not in the green tier yet, but California is set to get more than $150 billion from the COVID-19 relief bill President Biden signed on Thursday.
The largest portion of the money coming from the American Rescue Plan Act will come in the form of direct $1,400 payments to individuals and expanded unemployment benefits.
Meanwhile, state officials are feeling optimistic enough about the coronavirus fight to be working on creating a green tier for reopening.
Green has never looked so good.
