Congress gets wet over state water wars

It was the kind of legislation that rarely generates much debate in Congress: a bill to expand a local water recycling program.

[the far right is funny]

They don't care about water for farmers. They care about getting power.

[Wet Spot]

Obviously we're all going to get hosed.

[Old and in the way]

Metropolitan Water District (Los Angeles) and Westside Water District (Los Banos farmers) are going to push through the canal project. They are ignoring the ramifications of putting more water down the Sacramento River. There are going to be class actions law suits like never before when 200 square miles of farmland becomes useless bog.

It will be cheaper to build an alternate conveyance for that water. It has been on the table since 1982 and ignored the whole time.
