Gov. Schwarzenegger Issues Statement Reiterating Opposition to Offshore Oil Drilling

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger today issued the following statement in response to President Bush's plan to lift the executive ban on offshore oil drilling:

"I know people are frustrated with the soaring price of gas, and I welcome the national debate on solutions to lower our energy costs, but in California we know offshore drilling is not the answer. We will continue to foster a market for alternative energies because choice is the only way we will ultimately bring down fuel costs."
