California’s political battle over key environmental law brews on two fronts
A political battle continues over how the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) will be applied, focusing on whether development needs streamlining for housing and manufacturing facilities or stricter environmental protection. This conflict plays out simultaneously in legislative efforts, such as bills concerning advanced manufacturing facilities, and through a potential ballot measure called Proposition 45.
