Urgent Action Alert!: We Are the Delta: Tell Governor Newsom
No Delta Tunnel!
Stockton, CA – Yesterday, Governor Gavin Newsom referred to California Tribes, along with environmental and community groups opposing the Delta Conveyance Project, as “special interests.” His remarks in response to our collective Day of Action at the State Capitol yesterday mimic the way President Trump speaks about parties who disagree with him.
The Governor’s statements about the Delta Conveyance Project have been debunked in recent written testimony submitted to the State Water Resources Control Board by nationally renowned environmental economists, Tribal and environmental justice experts, climate and water experts, and fishery scientists. Restore the Delta and our Tribal partners in the Delta Tribal Environmental Coalition rely on the work of these experts to validate our on-the-ground expertise.
Trumpian tactics from the Governor are beneath his office. The truth will stand. Californians already reject the Delta Conveyance Project, which EcoNorthwest has demonstrated will cost between $60 billion and $116 billion. As the facts continue to come to light in the opposition’s collective testimony, voters will become more and more disturbed by the Governor’s misinformation on water and his bullying of impacted communities.
