It comes on the heels of two more refineries announcing they will end production.

"Sorry to interrupt you, director," Petrie-Norris said. "I guess I'm just a little confused. So if California companies were raking it in, why did we just have two refineries announce their intent to close?"

The Senate voted last week to revoke three vehicle emissions waivers in California.
