The Latest: California governor promises more climate fights
California Gov. Jerry Brown says more climate-change laws will follow after the Legislature approved an extension of the state's landmark law restricting greenhouse gas emissions.
The legislation approved this week extends the legal framework that underpins California's wide-ranging efforts to fight climate change, the most aggressive in the nation.
The state Senate voted 25-13 Wednesday to pass the measure and send it to Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown, who says he'll sign it.
California's 2006 climate change law sought to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020.
