🚨 California has become a national security risk under the energy madness of Governor @GavinNewsom. The excellent op/ed linked below from @PTSFounder Ronald Stein and @MikeUmbro details how California's misguided energy policies aren't just crippling the Golden State — they're posing a serious threat to America's national security. Aggressive regulations from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) are accelerating refinery closures and creating an isolated "Energy Island" vulnerable to supply shocks. Key highlights: ⚡️Companies fleeing: Major firms including Tesla, Oracle, Chevron, SpaceX, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Charles Schwab, and Yamaha have relocated due to sky-high taxes and regulatory burdens. ⚡️Refinery shutdowns imminent: Phillips 66’s Los Angeles facility by late 2025 and Valero’s Benicia refinery in April 2026 will remove approximately 20% of California’s gasoline production capacity. ⚡️Isolated vulnerability: With no crude oil pipelines crossing the Sierra Mountains, the 4th largest global economy relies solely on in-state refineries to supply fuel for military installations, major ports, airports, and civilian transport. ⚡️Regulatory hammer: CARB's proposed greenhouse gas limits and Cap-and-Invest program will devastate the transportation fuels market, dramatically raising prices for gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel while destroying jobs. ⚡️Defense implications: Eroding capacity endangers fuel supplies for 9 international airports, 41 military airfields, and three busiest West Coast ports, compromising Pacific military readiness. ⚡️Dangerous shift abroad: California risks dependence on imports from 181 new refinery projects launching in Africa (leading with 70-89), Asia, and the Middle East between 2024-2030. This shortsighted approach increases exposure to global disruptions and foreign suppliers. It's time for policymakers to prioritize realistic energy strategies that protect both California's economy and America's security interests.
