If the ‘Future of Work’ Commission were truly interested in preserving quality jobs for California workers, it would call on policymakers to stop killing opportunities provided by the oil and gas industry.

Data shows that calls for a ‘just transition’ are calls for oil and gas workers to take 45% less pay, fewer benefits and less security in their jobs – if they can get one at all.

Data and experience demonstrate that the vague notion of transitioning oil and gas workers to new jobs isn’t anything more than an empty talking point.

Despite offering billions in assistance, a new ‘just transition’ model fails to assure oil and gas workers that they won’t end up in far worse jobs over the long term.

The jaw-dropping figure provides policymakers good reason to balk at shutting down California’s oil and gas industry.

New reporting confirms the governor used bad math to pursue his fracking ban, which the real data show will hurt far more workers than he’s willing to recognize.

Governor Newsom’s unilateral mandates to end in-state oil and gas production require a disregard for basic economics.

After their false narrative was undone by facts, CFROG accused USGS and the State Water Board of “gross misrepresentation at best, an outright lie at worst.”

The governor’s announcement alarmed elected officials and business groups concerned about job losses, foreign oil dependence and higher costs for families.
