Bend over and grease up!
Do they lock up KY Jelly in California?
There is going to be a run on the stuff so maybe they should.
'Broke California to Spend $1.4 Billion on More EV Charging Stations'
'The State of California, which is suffering from massive budget
deficits, will spend $1.4 billion to expand a network of electric
vehicle (EV) charging stations to assist drivers of the cars that Gov.
Gavin Newsom wants to require by 2035.
As Breitbart News noted earlier this week, Newsom’s EV mandate is in trouble, with sales falling far below targets. In addition, as the Los Angeles Times reported, Newsom is raising eyebrows by continuing to
propose new spending — even though the state is suffering under massive budget deficits, despite lavish coronavirus relief from the federal government under President Joe Biden’s inflationary American Rescue
Plan, which he signed on taking office in 2021.
But the state is determined to push the EV mandate, as the Washington
Post reported on Thursday:
The California Energy Commission, the state agency that oversees energy policy, approved a $1.4 billion plan Wednesday that regulators said
would result in nearly 17,000 new chargers for passenger vehicles
statewide, adding to the more than 152,000 public and private chargers available today. The money will be spent over the next four years. In a
news release, state regulators said least 50 percent of the funds would
go to parts of the state that bear a disproportionate share of
pollution, such as communities near major highways, oil refineries and landfills.
…
The move comes at a time when Donald Trump’s return to the White House
is fueling uncertainty about the future of America’s shift to electric vehicles.
Throughout the presidential campaign, Trump frequently attacked the
Biden administration’s climate policies and support for decarbonizing transportation by shifting to EVs. His transition team is looking at
rolling back President Joe Biden’s stricter vehicle fuel efficiency standards and eliminating the tax credits for EV buyers in Biden’s signature climate law. Without these credits, which can be as high as
$7,500 for new electric cars and up to $4,000 for used models, EVs sales could fall.
Newsom promised last month to bring back California’s tax rebates for
EVs if President-elect Trump cancels the federal tax credits for such vehicles, but the governor would need legislative approval — and there
is little money'

File this one alongside California's high speed train bridge to
nowhere. It's already at $100 billion dollars wasted.

Participate is about it.
Nevada County has 100K population with 74,991 registered voters. Siskiyou County has 43K with 27,978 registered voters. Another poster referred to Inyo County, population 18.5K with 10.8K registered voters.

Yes. They can propose laws and measures, have them put on the
ballot, and the people vote.
