'California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed a bill this week to ban
one-pound, single-use propane cylinders, meaning that only more
expensive reusable cylinders will be available in the state.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported:

Disposable propane canisters like the dark green ones used with camping
stoves will soon be phased out in California, after Gov. Gavin Newsom
signed legislation Sunday requiring all one-pound cylinders sold in the
state to be reusable or refillable starting in 2028.

…

Between 4 million and 7 million of the single-use cylinders are sold in
California each year, according to an estimate from the California
Product Stewardship Council, a nonprofit local government coalition that
sponsored the bill.

…

In 2022, Newsom vetoed a near-identical bill, SB 1256. In his veto
letter, Newsom raised concerns about prohibiting sales of disposable
cylinders “without a plan for collection and refill infrastructure.” The
governor also urged the legislature to consider “market-based solutions”
over an outright ban.

Democrats say that negotiations with manufacturers failed, and therefore
Newsom decided to ban the cylinders.

Critics will note that Newsom’s ban is the latest regulation making life
in California more expensive and cumbersome than it is in other states.

On Wednesday, Newsom signed legislation slapping new demands on the oil
industry and closing an oil field that has been productive in southern
Los Angeles for a century.'

Ha! Ha! You left-wing cocksuckers deserve it. You voted this
Nancy Pelosi turd into office, you should reap the rewards.
