Newsom urges Californians to skip Chevron as gas prices surge for Memorial Day
TL;DR
California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office urged motorists to avoid Chevron stations over Memorial Day weekend, citing a state energy-commission analysis that Chevron prices run roughly 60–80 cents per gallon higher than unbranded fuel. With California averaging about $6.14 per gallon and a high gas tax, the move reflects ongoing tensions over oil profits and climate policies as the state contends with industry blame, refinery changes, and a global price uptick tied to geopolitics.
