California Gov. Gavin Newsom proposed a leaner budget Tuesday that would cut spending on climate change and transportation programs in response to a projected $22.5 billion budget shortfall. The $297 billion spending plan released Tuesday represents an $11 billion decrease from the current year’s budget. It comes just months after the Democrat signed a record-busting $308 billion budget, buoyed by a more than $100 billion surplus. Mr. Newsom said that the whiplash demonstrates the effects of California’s progressive tax system on state revenues, which rely heavily on personal income taxes, particularly from the ultrawealthy.

California Rep.

One of the wettest two-week periods on record in California brought much-needed water to its reservoirs and snow to its mountains, but researchers and officials said it would take several more winter storms to make a dent in the drought that has sapped reservoirs, fallowed farmland and forced homeowners to let lawns turn brown. California has been drenched in the past few weeks by heavy rains and, at higher elevations, snow, caused by an atmospheric river, a flowing column of condensed water vapor in the atmosphere that produces significant levels of rain and snow. Swaths of the state received 15 or more inches of rain over the past two weeks, according to the National Weather Service.
