California moved one step closer to ending reliance on fossil fuels as Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a new bill into law on Sunday to ban all off-road gas-powered engines.
The new law requires the state to apply the new rule by Jan. 1, 2024, or as soon as regulators determine is “feasible,” whichever date is later, according to the bill.
The bill served as one step in the governor’s California Comeback Plan that includes a strong focus on climate change initiatives.
“In a time when the state and country are more divided than ever, this legislative session reminds us what we can accomplish together. I am thankful for our partners in the state Legislature who furthered our efforts to tackle the state’s most persistent challenges – together, we took action to address those challenges head-on, implementing historic legislation and the California Comeback Plan to hit fast forward on our state’s recovery,” Newsom said in a press release on Saturday.
“What we’re doing here in California is unprecedented in both nature and scale. We will come back from this pandemic stronger than ever before,” he added.
Pretty soon, nobody will be able to live there – even if they want to…..
Illegal !!!! Jail this Tyrant Democrat Brainwashed Governor NOW !!!!!
I hope everyone in California goes out and buys a goat to do their lawn maintenance.
I haven’t read the bill but would this include tractors? There are an awful lot of farms in parts of California. How will they plow their fields and harvest their crops. How about motorcycles, gocarts and atvs. I hope a lot of large businesses will make a quick and fast exit out of that state because of the regulations he is imposing. How can they survive having to jump through so many hoops and people that can steal $1200 a pop and the police won’t even show up.
I can’t imagine anyone wanting to.
Do you mean that the people of California wouldn’t have rather had Larry Elder? Something is wrong with those people or, as usual, the election was rigged.
Communist California !!!!! Not Legal
Another of the many reasons why most wouldn’t care if California slipped into the Pacific!
Can’t wait until the blackouts hit daily!
