Tell President Obama to Veto The WRDA and California Drought Bill!

Update 12/16/16: President Obama has signed the bill. Please stay tuned for further action.
websiteimageDear SF Bay-Delta Advocate,
 
As you know, the Water Resources Development Act passed the Senate late last Friday, just before Holiday Break. The bill is now headed to the White House for President Obama’s signature.
 
Today, Restore the Delta’s executive director, Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla, sent the following letter to President Obama asking him to veto the bill due to the destructive “midnight rider” that was added to the otherwise worthy bill, which will undermine endangered species protections for California salmon and water quality for the Delta.
 
Please write your own letter to the White House asking for President Obama to Veto this bill. Include why you love the Bay-Delta and the impacts this rider will have on your life.
 
Barbara’s letter is a good example of the correct tone when writing to the White House. Keep it courteous and professional please and represent the Delta well. Click here to read the letter.
