Oil and gas companies in California are blocking access to affordable, clean energy and driving up oil prices to boost their profits. It's time to clear the way for cleaner, cheaper solutions.

Cleaner Energy Means Lower Prices

Tapping into clean, abundant energy, like wind and solar power, is one of the most effective ways to make utility costs more affordable. A study by Aurora Energy Research shows that solar power could reduce bills up to 20% for customers.

Utilities Pocket Record Profits

The cost of heating, cooling, and cooking in our homes is going up. A 2025 AP News report shows household power bills in California jumped almost 50% between 2019–2023 meanwhile utility profits continue to grow.

Gas Companies Pump Up Prices

California oil and gas companies are making billions of dollars in profits by inflating the cost of gas. Consumer Watchdog found that refining margins soared to $1.49 per gallon back in September 2023—three times above January levels.

Dirty Energy Drives Up Insurance

Increases in extreme weather events, as caused by fossil fuel pollution, are causing insurers to raise rates. For homeowners this means more costly insurance payments and, for some of us, even dropped coverage. A Treasury Department–backed report notes homeowners in climate‑vulnerable areas (like California fire zones) have endured an 82% premium increase compared to low‑risk zones over four years
