Contributing sentiments towards policy:
50% : Elected officials, environmental advocates, and actress Jane Fonda gathered in Laguna Beach, California, on Oct. 18 in a joint effort to support state Sen. Dave Min's (D-Irvine) promise to ban all offshore oil drilling off the coast of California following the recent oil spill near Huntington Beach.44% : Min said that his bill, which starts its process when the legislature commences in January, will do justice for the state's water by completely banning oil drilling -- not just banning new leases on oil drilling which he said had been proposed to him a number of times.
44% : "A lot of people don't know the facts around this, but we've actually not had a new lease granted for oil drilling or extraction off the coast in federal waters since 1982 and in state waters since 1969.
40% : And there's only one way to do that -- by ending all oil drilling off the coast of California."
