Newsom vetoes bill on pollution reviews near schools
Original: Newsom kills bill requiring polluting factories near schools to undergo environmental review
California Governor Gavin Newsom has vetoed a bill that would have required factories polluting near schools to undergo environmental review. The veto means industrial facilities operating close to school campuses will not face the additional state-level scrutiny the measure sought to impose. Environmental and public health advocates are expected to criticize the decision, while business groups are likely to welcome it.
Why now: The veto directly affects children's health and air quality near schools, making it politically and environmentally contentious.
