Jon Coupal, President of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, and Jon Fleischman, Publisher of the FlashReport Website on California Politics, this morning released the following statement to the State Legislature concerning ongoing discussions to achieve a solution to our state’s water crisis that the legislature would then place before the voters of California…
"As the Governor and state legislators work earnestly with a goal of pulling together a “comprehensive water solution package” to potentially bring before the full legislature this week, we believe that the frame of mind of those working on this important problem should do so bearing in mind that in very difficult economic times, the overriding consideration should not be “what do we want to do” but rather “what do we have to do.”
Our state’s water infrastructure clearly needs improvement and expansion. Californians understand this and we believe are ready to support a proposal that does so with an a manner that is fiscally responsible and does not seek to use a critical issue to reach into the pockets of taxpayers to fund a “wish list” of non-essential spending promoted by Sacramento’s special interest groups. In fact, we feel it would be shameless to use the plight of so many in desperate need of water to promote and fund alternative agendas. This is not the time to apply the principle that “one shouldn’t waste a good crisis.”
