California Clean Coast Act of 2025
Sponsored By: Representative Carbajal, Salud O. [D-CA-24]
Introduced
Summary
Permanently bans new offshore oil and gas preleasing and leasing off California's coast. This bill would add a new subsection (q) to Section 8 of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to bar any preleasing, leasing, or related activities in the portions of the Outer Continental Shelf off California. The prohibition would take effect at enactment, be written to override conflicting laws or rules, and would leave intact rights under any leases that were issued before enactment.

No new offshore drilling off California
If enacted, this would ban new federal oil and gas preleasing, leasing, and related activities in federal waters off California. The ban would start on the date it becomes law and would be permanent. It would apply even if other laws or plans say otherwise. It would not change rights under leases issued before that date, so existing leases could continue.
