California voters may face dueling measures on 2024 ballot about oil wells near homes and schools

  • Environmental advocates in California are launching a campaign to ask voters to ban new oil and gas wells near homes, schools, and hospitals, in response to a referendum by the oil industry to overturn a similar law.

  • The possibility of dueling ballot measures on new oil wells reflects the growing political tension in California over climate change policies, with potential confusion for voters and risks to both sides' chances of success.
