LOS ANGELES, California — Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) traveled to Baldwin Hills to sign legislation restricting oil and gas facilities — and removing the pumpjacks behind him, ending a century of the oil and industry’s role in the area.
AB 2716 will close the Baldwin Hills oil facilities, which existed prior to the surrounding area becoming developed for residential use, but which now sit inside what has become L.A.’s most prominent middle-class black neighborhood.
AB 3233 will give local authorities more power to prohibit oil and gas drilling. AB 1866 will expand on existing law and increase and accelerate the penalties for not capping idle wells within existing oil and gas production facilities.

The gouger is the government with gasoline taxes at $2.50/gal.
Most have.
State gas taxes and refinery regulations are what’s gouging consumers.
...said the scion of the Getty Oil empire.
Chevron is moving their HQ from California to Houston, TX.
Funny how when they jack up spending they never consider themselves as gouging the taxpayers.
76 and chevron should just shut it down and move
Isn't it amazing that Governor Hair Gel neglects to mention that the reason gas is so high in California is that refineries have been driven out of the state; there is no gas pipeline to California; and that he's selling a lot of CA gas overseas? Funny how he leaves that out of the discussion.
Good news
Low info voters don’t care and the media
Should they stop delivering gas products to California?
Hey Cali residents-Newsome is a legend in his own mind. It will be Winter soon-I’m sure y’all will enjoy the cold weather with your virtue signaling and solar power to keep you warm...
And the hourly mix changes.
“The gouger is the government with gasoline taxes at $2.50/gal.”
Yep and major oil companies get about 8-10% net profit.
It’s pronounced gauging (per vp kamawhore)
Newsom is just projecting again. He and his Demonicrats are the real gougers of California.
The total gas tax charge in New York is closer to 47.3 cents per gallon to 48.05 cents per gallon. New York is considered a high tax state compared to the rest of the country.
So that’s close to 15% of the cost - and our roads and bridges are crumbling.
tired of commies.
That is pure profit for them because they make no investment at all and provide no jobs.
Does anyone find that interesting?
Because I find that interesting.
