FILE - In this Jan. 21, 2021, file photo, health care workers prepare the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for farm workers at Tudor Ranch in Mecca, Calif. California Gov. Gavin Newsom wants to spend the state's extraordinary budget surplus on correcting the most widespread financial impacts of the pandemic, pledging to give $600 payments to most taxpaying adults while committing to pay off all of their outstanding rent and utility bills.
