3 Reasons to Repeal the Water Bond

• $11.14 BILLION SINKS CALIFORNIA’S BUDGET: California is already facing a $13 billion budget deficit that has resulted in huge cuts to public schools and other essential services.

• CORPORATE CONTROL OF OUR WATER: Corporate agribusiness giants would get more taxpayer-subsidized water, which they could resell to developers for huge private profits.

• BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT: Busts the budget for local water projects and degrades the San Francisco Bay Delta ecosystem.

Take Action: Write Governor Brown

Letter to Governor Brown:

I urge you to repeal the $11.14 Billion Water Bond slated to be on the November ballot. Delaying a bond measure that subsidizes corporate agriculture at the expense of taxpayers and our environment will not make it any better. We cannot afford to waste billions on pork projects when we need to invest in fixing our aging water and sewer systems.

When you take action on this issue, we’ll keep you informed on this and other important issues.

Big agriculture corporations have bought out the California legislature to place an $11.14 billion water bond measure on the November ballot that benefits large corporate interests, not Californians, while paving the way for the construction of a massive tunnel to divert the Sacramento River to the southwestern Central Valley.
