California took a step closer to regulating how much profit the state's oil refiners can earn on selling gasoline after a state senate committee last week approved a proposal oil companies rejected as likely to raise costs. The state's Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom proposed to empower the California Energy Commission to set a state gross gasoline refining profit margin, and to levy penalties for exceeding it. The proposal, which would require approval by both houses of state's legislature, has a slim chance of approval after several Democratic lawmakers worried about the unintended consequences of California trying to impose a profit cap, analysts said.
