The oil industry just won’t stop its deceptive advertising. Now they have a new phony tv ad blaming Governor Newsom for the state’s efforts to rein in dangerous oil drilling near communities
The oil industry is out at it again. This time with another deceptive television ad lying about how protections for communities with oil drilling will drive up the price of gasoline. It’s pure poppycock.
California State Senator Anthony Portantino abused his power to side with oil drillers and threaten the public’s health. He prevented a vote on a key bill to hold oil drillers accountable. Shame on you, Senator Portantino.
Consumer Watchdog's president Jamie Court presents testimony to the California Energy Commission on November 29, 2022 about the need for a windfall profits cap, which Governor Newsom has called on the California legislature to enact in a special legislative session starting December 5, 2022.
