Trump orders Feds to 'maximize' #Cawater by overriding state policies that protect wildlife and environment. This won't help the almost one million Californians who can't drink the water from their taps. We need real solutions for our real problems. @ianjames.bsky.social

Here are some tips on what to do if you receive a ‘Do-Not-Drink-Water’ notification because of the fires. If you are unsure of who your drinking water provider is, check out CWC’s drinking water tool to find out www.communitywatercenter.org/drinkingwate...

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)
