Water and Agriculture

By Tom Campbell

California’s farms and ranches are the most productive in the world. They provide affordable food to our state and improve our nation’s international trade position. It is wrong to deny water to agriculture through unreasonable curtailments of the state and federal water projects, when cities and industries are not required to do the same. Farmers know the value of water and do not waste it.

The above are statements on several public policy issues drafted by Tom Campbell, former US Congressman, former California State Senator, former Director of Finance for California, and currently Interim Chairman of the Common Sense Party. They are meant to initiate consideration of several important issues; they are not the official views of the Common Sense Party.
