What it does
The California Clean Coast Act of 2025 would permanently prohibit oil and gas leasing, preleasing, and related activities in the outer Continental Shelf off the coast of California, amending the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to enforce this ban. The prohibition applies to all future leasing activities but does not affect existing leases issued before the bill’s enactment. The bill affects federal offshore areas adjacent to California and aims to protect the state’s coastline from fossil fuel development. It was introduced by a group of California representatives and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources.
