There was a Democrat super majority that passed a $1 plus a gallon additional tax that can be implemented when they think the time was right. Not about tax credits, it was a Dem super majority using their numbers to tax EVERYONE including the poor.

Not true. They passed a carbon tax that some claimed would be larger than turned out to be true.

“Estimates of the cost of the tax vary. The California Air Resources Board, the Golden State’s premier anti-pollution agency, predicts the new tax will raise gasoline prices from 20 cents to $1.30 per gallon. A prominent state senator who helped author the bill estimated the cost at 40 cents a gallon. Environmental activists downplay the cost, but hail the impact.

“We’re going to now tackle probably 40 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the state that are emitted mostly through transportation - oil and gas use,” said Climate Resolve Executive Director Jonathan Parfrey.”

It’s the “carbon tax”, designed to sell “credits” to “polluters”.
