It is not free money, it is taxpayers money.

When the hell is CALI goin to stop voting Democratic

[gigglebush]

Too bad you shut down the Keystone pipeline and threw welders like me out of work. But hey sleepy Joe's worried about social justice. Let's go Brandon.

[shAiDawn]

I paid nearly $6.50 yesterday. This world has gone terribly wrong in so many ways.

[mando.]

Get Newsom out NOW! Your not getting my vote because your giving me my money back.

[atomictime]

Too bad gas stations can't be looted. If so, teft of gas would be a minor infraction as long as you only stole $900 or less (soon to be the amount to fill your tank).

Free money is the most expensive money. Giving away money today means the cost of everything will go up tomorrow. That is called inflation. How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man.

[DJBillionator]

There's State taxes, federal taxes, gas taxes, cigarette taxes, car taxes and property That adds up to a lot of taxes. But, idiots will say you only pay 20% in taxes. *SMH*

[Americafirst-iq]

Stop your complaining you voted for Joe Biden and your buddy Gavin Newsom

[DwnRace]

Keep it simple! Just don’t take our money with taxes! Politicians always pretending to help us by giving us OUR Money Back!

[Secretary.of.Education]

Just a matter of time before siphoning other people's gas and crime goes up even higher

[ROZSBLUEJAY]

Don't send money! Just reduce the prices!

[Bethdebord]

He should think about increasing regulations. Said no one EVER! You get what you vote for people

[elizabethv]

Why doesn’t he just stop collecting state taxes? BECAUSE HE WANTS A CUT OF YOUR HANDOUT!!!!

[judypierce]

So does that mean that Newsome thinks that the rest of America should pay to help Californians?

[basmael-gaouni]

No drilling, but now we are in an emergency. As if you are telling us don't drink water. How can we survive? Which is now more important?

[frankied]

DEAR G.N.
YOU CANNOT BUY MY FRIENDSHIP

[eddiebmx]

You can find all the oil we need in his hair

[ck]

Why is it ok to drill in other countries? His logic makes no sense we share the air with all countries.

[Wgs]

Let Newsom, take the money from his own pocket.
