CA Democrats Take Aim at Offshore Drilling in Light of a Major Oil Spill
Several California Democrats are calling for limiting or halting offshore drilling in the wake of a major oil spill off the state’s coast this weekend.
The 126,000 gallon spill prompted beach closures and reached coastal wetlands that are home to migratory birds.
In the wake of the spill, Democrats rebuked offshore drilling and the oil industry, and House Democrats’ campaign arm used it to slam one area Republican.
