  • Letter to Gov. Newsom Regarding Drought – May 20, 2021
    May 20, 2021 Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom: On behalf of the San Diego County Water Authority, we wish to share our appreciation for your leadership to help California navigate through water shortage and drought conditions. We sympathize with the local conditions experienced in those counties in which you’ve declared drought emergency conditions, and we are particularly grateful that you have publicly shared your observations regarding the need to evaluate water shortage and drought conditions on a county-by-county or region-by-region basis. As you know very well, every region within our huge state is different in terms of climate, water supply portfolio, investments in drought-resilient water suppliers, hydrology, and ability to withstand prolonged water shortage conditions. As you have framed, one-size-fits-all solutions to many issues facing California – including water shortage or drought conditions – don’t work well and are unnecessary. We applaud your focus on water resiliency, sustainability, and bringing the right set of tools to address very complex drought issues. Your “Water Resilience Portfolio” serves as an important framework to guide efforts to insulate communities and regions from drought. Importantly, we’ve all learned lessons from the most recent prolonged drought that can be used to help guide our collective drought preparation and response during 2021 and into future years, and there are opportunities available to continue improving drought resilience and sustainability going forward: • Localism should be determinative. As you’ve noted publicly throughout your communications related to the COVID-19 pandemic, different regions of California have different needs and localism should be determinative in the state’s approaches to addressing broad policy issues.

  • April 16, 2021 the Honorable Jose Medina Chair, California State
    April 16, 2021 The Honorable Jose Medina Chair, California State Assembly Higher Education Committee State Capitol Room 2141 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: AB 1456 (Medina, McCarty, Leyva): SUPPORT AS AMENDED APRIL 12, 2021 Dear Chair Medina: A diverse coalition of higher education advocacy, civil rights and social justice, business and workforce, and student leadership organizations united in strengthening state need-based financial aid so that all Californians can afford to successfully earn a higher education credential, today we write in strong support of AB 1456 (Medina, McCarty, Leyva), the Cal Grant Reform Act, as amended April 12, 2021. We also offer additional recommendations to strengthen the proposal as it moves forward through the legislative process. Our organizations are deeply committed to ensuring equitable, affordable college opportunity, and we are grateful for your leadership in the pursuit of a stronger Cal Grant program, so that low-income students’ higher education success is not curtailed by unaffordable costs and burdensome debt. 1 The creation of the Cal Grant entitlement was a crowning achievement in its time and it remains a leading state grant program today. Yet the intervening two decades have also laid bare its structural limitations: eligible applicants outside of the “entitlement” window have had to compete for a very limited number of awards, and – without being pegged to a meaningful threshold – the value of students’ stipends for non-tuition costs has fallen dramatically. We are immensely appreciative that the amendments to AB 1456 aim to address both of these structural issues that have perpetuated inequities in college access and success for students at all types of colleges, and for those attending California community colleges (CCC) in particular.
