Martinez refinery could soon face class action lawsuit

A lawsuit filed against the Martinez Refining Company could soon turn into a class action suit. The complaint focuses on what it calls the refinery's "toxic releases" and alleges that the refinery has played a significant role in releasing toxic chemicals in the homes of nearly 40,000 people. It cites several incidents including releases in November 2022 and July of 2023. KTVU's Claudine Wong speaks with Blair Kittle, the lead attorney representing the plaintiffs in this suit.
