"We are currently facing the worst drought in California's history and the West."

"This bill continues to mistakenly blame environmental law for the lack of authorization or appropriation of important water projects in the West."

"We agreed to it on a bipartisan basis, even though we had to kind of hold our nose to it in some areas."

"We need to seriously look at this issue and try to find some commonsense solutions that still protect public health and the environment."
