🛢 Workers go on strike at northern California refinery owned by Chevron
More than 500 workers at a Chevron Corp. refinery in the San Francisco Bay Area went on strike early Monday in a contract dispute. It came after workers voted down Chevron’s most recent contract offer and the company refused to return to the bargaining table.
If the strike shuts down the refinery, which seems likely, it could negatively affect the already high gasoline prices in California, a state with highest regular gas price in the nation, at $5.86 per gallon, according to the American Automobile Association.
Chevron representatives complained that in Richmond, where the refinery is located, the union’s demands “exceeded what the company believes to be reasonable and moved beyond what was agreed to as part of the national pattern bargaining agreement.”

📊 Pence distances himself from Trump as he eyes 2024 campaign
Last month, Pence called out Trump by name, saying his former boss was “wrong” to insist that the former US VP had the power to unilaterally overturn the results of the 2020 election — a power vice presidents do not possess.
Pence has spent the past several months traveling the country, delivering policy speeches, raising money for midterm candidates and visiting early-voting states, while working on a pair of books. In the coming months, he is planning a return visit to Iowa, which holds the party’s first nominating contests of the presidential election cycle.
His political group, Advancing American Freedom, announced a $10 million ad campaign to support an expansion of American energy production. Still, early polls show that Trump remains the decisive favorite among GOP voters if the one-term US president chooses to mount another run. Without Trump in the race, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis so far appears to be an early favorite.
