Newsom's pick for an environmental board now lobbies for its industries

  • Gavin Newsom appointed his former deputy chief of staff, Rhys Williams, to California's Board of Environmental Safety in January.
  • In May, Williams began lobbying for a firm whose clients include a hazardous-waste company and an aerospace manufacturer with business before environmental regulators.
  • Green groups want him gone; Newsom's office says he recuses himself.
