FILE -- In this Aug. 4, 2013, file photo oil pumps operate near Lost Hills, Calif. A bill by Sen. Noreen Evans, D-Santa Rosa, would impose a tax on companies that extract oil in California. Evans' measure is one of the hundreds of bills that failed to pass the Legislature last year and face an end-of-the-month deadline. Evans' bill stalled in committee, but she plans to propose new legislation that would put the oil tax before voters on the 2016 ballot. (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli, file)
