I have disagreed with most of the COVID-19 policies that Gov. Gavin Newsom has employed over the past nine months, but his new regional stay-at-home order is the
coup de grâce! Santa Barbara County is now officially out of business!
Last month we were on the verge of elevation to the less-restrictive orange tier from the red tier when Newsom magically moved us back to purple, the most restrictive tier.
His new regional plan, which is not based on science, places the county in a region with half the population of California. What is Santa Barbara County’s common thread with Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties? It must be nice if you live in the greater Sacramento region, where the population is less than 1 million.
