This is Chad Mayes, Republican leader of CA State Assembly who was forced to resign due to party politics on his vote for cap and trade.
Quote:
Mr. Mayes announced Thursday that he was stepping down in the face of criticism from conservatives over his vote. Some of them assailed Mr. Mayes for helping to pass a Democratic agenda item that they described as economically damaging and against party orthodoxy.

Quote:
“I am going to continue to keep working toward changing the image that people in California have about California Republicans,” he said. “California Republicans are different than national Republicans. We care about the environment. A huge number of California Republicans believe that climate change is real and state government has an obligation to address it. We shouldn’t be running away from it.”
