California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday signed a $7.6 billion COVID-19 relief package into law that includes a round of direct payments for certain people.

Newsom, a Democrat, signed the package a day after the Democrat-controlled legislature passed it, and a week after he and legislative leaders reached an agreement on key provisions.
