SHOW TOPIC: An Update on California Energy Policy And Related Issues

This segment will explore the ongoing energy policy debate in California, a state whose decisions frequently influence energy direction across the U.S. We’ll also discuss the growing controversy surrounding Governor Gavin Newsom’s continued refusal to act on practical, expert-backed recommendations from California Energy Commission/CEC Commissioner Siva Gunda. These proposals aim to stabilize gas prices, prevent energy shortages, and guide a more balanced and reliable transition to clean energy — yet they remain largely ignored.
