Storyline: What's Happening at the Capitol?
Saturday, Nov. 21
11 a.m. - 3 p.m. California State Sen. George Runner and California State Assemblyman Roger Neillo will team up with the Patriot Defenders Network to sponsor the "Water For Farmlands" forum. The group seeks a temporary waiver of the Endangered Species Act in order to revert water that is currently rehabilitating endangered fish species to Central Valley farmers. About 500 people are expected to attend the forum, which will be held on the Capitol's west steps.
2 - 5 p.m. Aspiranet, a nonprofit that provides social services to foster children, will be holding a National Adoption Day rally on the north steps of the Capitol. About 300 people are expected to participate.
No further events will take place until Wednesday, Dec. 2.

Another of the right-wing political groups in the name of "patriotism" not dealing with the reality of the need to preserve and conserve our natural resources, The indigenous people here before white man lived in harmony with the land rather than exploit and pollute it.

It is a disregard for the environment that creates these problems of endangered species in the first place. A disregard for the environment is NOT going to solve them.
