I’ve told everybody that @GavinNewsom should have appointed himself US Senator when he had the chance, and then resign the governorship. @AlexPadilla4CA isn’t mauled daily by the California migraine headache. #caleg

California families are already struggling with affordability. Policies that reduce local energy production can increase costs throughout the economy. Energy costs don’t just affect what you pay at the pump. They also affect what you pay at the grocery store.

The day Elon Musk told X advertisers to "go fck yourselves" he was worth $220 billion
Today he's worth $1.1 trillion

We are reducing in-state oil production while continuing to consume oil every single day.
That does not eliminate demand.
It increases dependence.

Middle-class jobs are being replaced by foreign oil imports. That’s the real transition happening. reuters.com/business/energy/…

California still consumes roughly 1.8 million barrels of oil per day. Demand hasn’t disappeared.
What’s changing is where the oil comes from.
Instead of producing it here under strict California regulations, policies are pushing more imports from foreign countries. That means:
⛽ High transportation emissions
⛽ More foreign dependence
⛽ Higher costs for families
⛽ 55,000 California jobs at risk
That’s not climate leadership.
That’s a policy contradiction.

Every barrel we don’t produce here gets shipped in from somewhere else.
California buys 50% of the oil produced in the Amazon Rainforest. Yet lawmakers love to pretend that “We’re fighting climate change.” nytimes.com/2023/01/25/us/oi…

California uses 1.8 million barrels of oil a day. Shutting down local production doesn’t change that. It just ships jobs overseas.

True. #California should keep its in-state #oil production as long as its byproducts and transportation fuels are required. Newsom’s shutdown agenda simply outsources California’s pollution & climate impacts to bad actors. It also spikes the prices! #gasoline #energy

How is shipping oil across the world somehow “cleaner” than producing it locally?
That’s the logic Californians are being sold.

We had over 40 refineries.
Now we’re down to 7.
And Sacramento wonders why Californians are paying almost $2 more per gallon of gasoline than the national average.

100 percent true. I said it back in 2020 during a hearing and was immediately attacked by left wing environmental groups who denied this. Now they cannot hide from it. Glad this truth is getting into #California policy discussions. #AmazonRainforest

California’s energy policy contradiction is impossible to ignore.
We are shutting down in-state oil production, produced under some of the strictest environmental and labor standards in the world, while increasing reliance on imported oil from foreign nations with little to no protections.
That’s not reducing emissions.
It also puts 55,000 California jobs at risk and sends billions of dollars overseas. Californians still rely on oil every day for transportation, infrastructure, and thousands of essential products.
We can produce energy responsibly here at home, or become more dependent on foreign nations.
That’s the real choice.

Oil isn’t just fuel.
It’s in your phone, your clothes, your car, your medicine.
Over 6,000 products depend on it.
