Gavin Newsom (D) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2021\/10\/21\/california-moves-to-prevent-new-oil-drilling-near-communities-expand-health-protections-2\/#:~:text=LOS%20ANGELES%20%E2%80%93%20Moving%20to%20protect,within%20a%203%2C200%2Dfoot%20exclusion\">announced a move<\/a> to prevent new oil drilling near communities.<\/p>\n<p>During a press conference on Thursday, Newsom committed to the establishment a 3,200 foot exclusion space to keep oil and gas drilling away from neighborhoods. The proposed regulation would prohibit new wells and facilities within the exclusion area to be kept away from homes, schools, hospitals among other vulnerable areas.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom said he\u2019s already put a down payment of $600 million in grants for impacted regions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are committing next year\u2019s budget, which I\u2019m working on already, to put hundreds of millions more to plug in abandoned wells and to hire the same people that were reworking these wells, to plug in abandoned wells. And we are going to work closely with communities,\u201d said Newsom.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We need to stop putting oil company profits over the health of our kids.<\/p>\n<p>Your zip code shouldn\u2019t determine if your kid gets asthma or is born with a birth defect.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time to stop the drilling of any new oil wells within 3,200 feet of homes &amp; schools.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/V2c9kFAPla\">pic.twitter.com\/V2c9kFAPla<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GavinNewsom\/status\/1451325103237599234?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 21, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Although, this is only part of Newsom\u2019s bigger plans to phase out oil production in California no later than 2045. \u201cWe don\u2019t see oil in our future,\u201d Newsom said on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The move comes after a recent oil spill off the Southern California coast, which threatened marine life and coastal communities.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/house-votes-to-hold-bannon-in-contempt\/\">House Votes To Hold Bannon In Contempt<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>California Gov.
