Hmm, I wonder if there would have been "enough water" if you took 2 million illegals out of the equation?

I'm sure a thought like foreigners using up resources is too complex or "politically incorrect" for Newsome to ponder.
 
Just like how he "followed" his own COVID lockdown measures, very soon we'll see Newsome "conserve" water by doing shit like this

California is run by idiots...

Of the 2014 voter-approved water bond, $2.7 billion for new water storage projects still unused

In 2014, California voters approved $7.12 billion in bonds for state water supply infrastructure projects. Of that, $2.7 billion was designated for water storage projects. But nearly 8 years later, there are no new dams or reservoirs, or other water storage projects to collect and store California’s winter runoff. And California is in yet another drought.

As California Rep. Tom McClintock has said for years, “Droughts are naturally occurring, water shortages are man-made.” He also has warned for many years, “We live in one of the most water-rich regions of the country – yet we have not built a major reservoir in this state since 1979. Meanwhile, the population has nearly doubled. The sad, simple fact is that we will NEVER solve our water problems until we start building new dams once again.”

Sen. Nielsen, who is also a farmer and rancher, on Friday denounced the shutdown of the Hyatt Power Plant at Oroville Dam. And California’s other reservoirs are also dangerously draining.


“Governor Newsom and the Democrats running this state should be ashamed,” Nielsen said. “Rather than planning for the future, they kowtowed to environmental special interest groups and stalled the construction of Sites Reservoir.”

Only two years ago, every reservoir in the state was brimming with enough water to last a minimum of five dry years without another drop of rain. Shasta and Oroville reservoirs/dams held enough water to meet the needs of 80 million people for a year.



Doesn't matter that the projects were voter approved. Activists have stopped progress now for over 6 years. Stop pandering to this minority of assholes...

Yes, Cali... Keep voting for these spineless Democrat dipshits who no have solutions for anything... just excuses.

The water and power shortages are caused by the negligence of these clowns
 
this is going to have to happen in lots of places. its no big deal really.
 
What the literal FUCK is that state doing? 75 billion surplus....water and energy crisis every year....

People really aren’t this stupid, are they?

Politicians pandering to far left activists...
 
Good job destroying the economy Gavin White Privilege Newsome. Now step down and be gone from California.

The Oroville Dam is fucking amazing. I've been in the middle of it miles beneath the earth. WTF. Crazy.

lol How is illegals your first thought when thinking of a water shortage?
Not the effects of climate change and drought, the large percentage of water used in agriculture and other big business, or just the general wasteful nature of people----how many gallons of waters get wasted everyday on keeping lawns looking green?
What % of the water do you think illegals are using vs. all these other factors?
 
As @Scerpi pointed out above (beat me to it) there have been solutions on the table for years, but Newscum and his friends can't be bothered.

And Libtards wonder why Conservatives dislike them...

And the solutions were voter approved.... which means the majority of people there want them.

But a small minority of activists have roadblocked all progress... enabled by spineless politicians.
