Let me say it again, working-families should not bear the burden of Californias lofty green energy goals. These policies benefit mostly the wealthy and well-off and leave communities of color to foot the bill. It is wrong and it needs to change. https://t.co/1WpqPdRmAi

Enviro Extremists only seem to want sun & wind to supply our energy needs…. Even clean hydro power is now on the chopping block because enviros refuse to increase storage capacity at our reservoirs. In 1979, CA had 23m people, now we have 40m. We’ve built no new reservoirs!
I am disappointed in Governor Newsom’s executive order today to ban fracking and phase out oil production in the Golden State. Thousands of Central Valley families rely heavily on these good-paying jobs.
Im glad someone else has brought attention to the huge disparity in who owns EVs and those who dont. More importantly, who can afford EVs yet still get GOV subsidies to purchase their Teslas. All the while, the poor & middle class are left out. https://t.co/cDzFYNPBNs
The State economy is already being impacted by #covid and now we have a shortage of energy resources that is causing blackouts. Solar only works in the day time, wind resources dont always happen so we are dependent on natural power plants

Everyone is saying we need more battery storage, but I have questions...The state energy peak is 50,000 MW. So how much lithium would we need to extract to serve that need? How many more black children in the Congo will have to suffer to meet this demand? https://t.co/dt0uF55ZVu
CA and the Air Resources Board are being sued and they should be! Just 4 years ago as part of the "Natural Gas Act" we are supposed to be looking at how we can utilize natural gas as a clean energy source. https://t.co/f9WP0rCs7x
so why is the Public Utilities Commission and CA Energy Commission trying to ban natural gas which fuels power plants that help with nighttime power needs?
Now enviro leaders want to move to "all electric buildings" Californians pay 55% more than all Americans for energy costs... so I guess why not just add to that percentage by getting rid of affordable natural gas options for families to heat their houses and cook their food?
