Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher (Yuba City) issued a statement regarding the Governor’s announcement of a new Water Supply Strategy.

“Another day, another empty promise from the Governor. It’s his administration that is holding up water storage projects we desperately need. If he wants to do something on the drought, he could stop the press conferences and go tell his staff to act.

“Ultimately, the Governor didn’t announce much at all today. With this current policy, we will continue to see fallow fields and abandoned farms well into the future.”
