Much like #drought impacts the global food supply chain, war and the lack of wheat will cause prices to rise and availability to plummet.
California must re-evaluate how we view water and land to ensure we can still produce enough food. #SB1219 #SB1084

While canals look refreshing and fun, they are quite dangerous. This danger is increased as irrigation season winds down for the year. Stay out of canals and avoid the swift currents and hidden obstructions.

Did you see reports of flooding in the town of Strathmore last night? Friant crews have been on the scene helping Tulare County relieve the flooding. Here’s an explanation and a few pics of the area this morning once water levels had receded👇🏼

Today, I joined fellow valley representatives to fight for the future of the Central Valley in a bipartisan effort to secure $400 million to restore the Friant-Kern Canal. I look forward to working with my colleague @Senator_Hurtado on #SB559.

The modernization of aging infrastructure is key to combatting climate change, maintaining ag production, and helping disadvantaged communities. Take a listen to Dr. Viers of @UCWater for a great overview of climate change challenges in the SJV tinyurl.com/yy3frft7

There are many obstacles to permanent structures over canals, but we desperately need progressive technical innovators.
