WILMINGTON, CALIFORNIA – NOVEMBER 28: The Phillips 66 Los Angeles Refinery Wilmington Plant stands on November 28, 2022 in Wilmington, California. Climate activists held a protest outside the refinery earlier in the day against increased oil company profits amid recent high gas prices in California. California Governor Gavin Newsom has called a special session of the Legislature for December 5th to consider a special windfall tax on oil industry profits. Phillips 66 reported a third quarter profit of $5.4 billion, 13 times more than the $402 million profit recorded for the same period last year.
