According to Bloomberg, the plan would expand upon a previous program which delivered $600 checks to qualifying low-income residents by allowing middle-class residents to become eligible. This means 2/3 of Californians would receive a check of at least $600, with families that have children receiving an additional $500 – essentially creating the largest state tax rebate on record, according to Newsom’s comments at a Monday press conference in Oakland. – READ MORE

As Bloomberg notes, “The Army—the U.S. military’s largest service—faces a complex set of problems: the eligible recruiting pool into all military services is small; and the newest generation of prospects, Gen Z, has had almost no contact or knowledge of the military, which has largely fought wars abroad since 2001. The Gen Z cohort grew up with technology, the internet, and social media.” – READ MORE
