$21.3 Billion Loss Of Reserves Under Newsom
As Gavin Newsom enacts his final budget as governor, I have been looking at all eight of his budgets. The first post was about spending on employee compensation and benefits, which is the third largest category of state spending.

The third post was about spending on Medi-Cal, which is the largest category of state spending. This post is about what happened to budget reserves under Newsom.
