California lawmakers will come back in a special session after they wrapped up their legislative year in order to debate measures proposed by Gov. Gavin Newsom that are aimed at reducing gas prices at the pump.
Newsom called the Legislature into the special session Saturday after Democrats in the Assembly pushed back on his efforts to pass an energy package that he unveiled last week. California must act now to "prevent price spikes next year and beyond," he said.

Yeah. Maybe he should quit worrying about spikes and take a look at reducing the everyday price of gas in California compared to the rest of the country by cutting taxes.
