In this episode of the California Underground Podcast, hosts Phil and Camille discuss significant developments in California politics, including the recent Senate vote to overturn California's gas car ban waiver, the implications of Bill Essayli's new immigration program, and Gavin Newsom's executive order mandating zero-emission vehicles. The conversation delves into the complexities of state versus federal authority, the potential impact on California's economy, and the challenges of transitioning to electric vehicles amidst existing infrastructure issues.
Are you a Californian who feels isolated and alone in your political views in a deep blue state? Feel like you can’t talk about insane taxes, an overbearing government, and radical social experiments without getting a side eye? Then join us on the California Underground Podcast, the most trusted podcast on all things California politics.
