Another Example of a Republican Law that Benefits Corporations and Harms People... However, we are fighting Back! Off Shore Oil Drilling Blocked by California Legislature...

“Today, California’s message to the Trump administration is simple: Not here, not now,” Brown said. “We will not let the federal government pillage public lands and destroy our treasured coast.”

Brown signed SB 834 and AB 1775, two measures that ban the State Lands Commission from approving permits for new wharfs, piers, pipelines and other facilities anywhere in state waters along the entire California coast from the shoreline out to three miles offshore that could be used to expand new offshore oil and gas production.

The bills — which were modeled on a local law passed by Santa Cruz city voters in 1985 aimed at stopping oil drilling during the Reagan administration — were a top priority for environmentalists in Sacramento this year. A similar proposal was blocked last year by oil industry opposition.

Hey Jeff Sessions: California Says "Bite My Shiny Metal Ass!"... We are going to write our own immigration laws and you can't do anything about it.

Gov. Jerry Brown on Wednesday slammed U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions for "initiating a reign of terror" against immigrants in California.

Sessions on Tuesday filed suit against the state over three new laws, passed last year to protect immigrants living in California illegally, that he argues violate the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution and interfere with federal immigration enforcement.

"This is basically going to war against the state of California, the engine of the American economy," Brown said. "It's not wise, it's not right and it will not stand."
