Gavin Newsom's CARB Approves Stricter Fuel Standards, Raising Gas Prices by 65 Cents in 12-2 Vote
Nov 9, 2024, 02:15 PM
The California Air Resources Board (CARB), with Governor Gavin Newsom's appointees, has voted 12-2 to implement stricter rules for low carbon fuels, which are expected to increase gas prices by 65 cents per gallon. The vote, which took place after a 12-hour session, aims to reduce planet-warming emissions from transportation fuels. However, this decision has faced criticism for its potential impact on gas prices, especially given California's already high fuel costs. Critics, including a California Democrat, argue that the changes will disproportionately affect working-class families and lack transparency on the exact cost implications for drivers. The new standards are part of California's broader strategy to combat climate change by promoting cleaner fuels.
