Thank you @CAgovernor and @CA_DWR for taking action to ensure #accountability and #transparency in the delivery of the Delta Conveyance Project.
The project is ready to move forward, and today's announcement gets us closer to securing water supplies for 27 million Californians and 750,000 acres of farmland.

Opponents of progress are back to recycling old, debunked talking points.
The benefits of the project have been proven to exceed the costs.

California needs water. We’re done with delays and barriers. Lets get this built.
💧 “The Delta Conveyance Project isn’t a political power play—it’s a climate adaptation necessity.”
In the @latimes, Charley Wilson responds to George Skelton, urging urgency over delay. CA’s water future can’t wait.

The wildfires in January changed everything for us, but so did the people who showed up
This week, we had the chance to show up for students who’ve been through it too. We got to hang out with computer science students to talk about navigating change and rebuilding after loss
Huge thanks to @Google and @YouTube for investing $3M in restoring tech and learning tools for schools affected by the California wildfires 🙌🏼🙌🏾
🧵Wildfires are a growing threat globally — but existing tech just isn't very good at detecting and tracking them.
Here's how we worked with @MuonSpace@EarthFireAll@MooreFound to launch FireSat, a constellation of satellites to spot fires when they're still small ⬇️
California just reached another critical milestone in the state’s work to improve water capture and transfer through the Delta Conveyance Project.
We’re boosting water supply while also protecting endangered species.
