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 near schools to undergo environmental review, meaning existing plants could continue operating without new assessments of their impact on children's health. The move has drawn criticism from environmental and community groups who backed the measure, while Business groups had lobbied against it.
Why now: The veto is new and controversial, pitting environmental justice concerns against industrial interests in California.
