Once a fierce critic of Big Oil, California Gov. Gavin Newsom is now working to keep refineries open and stabilize in-state fuel supplies — a move that reflects the complex political and economic realities of California’s clean energy transition. POLITICO’s Alex Nieves breaks down what this pivot means for California’s climate agenda and how it exposes a deeper tension within the Democratic Party over how to balance achieving environmental goals with relieving economic pressures. Plus, the Department of Interior said it’s rescinding language that requires the establishment of a five-year schedule for holding offshore renewable energy lease sales.
