San Francisco –
Bay Area fishermen announced today they will oppose Proposition 1, the State
Water Bond, at a San Francisco Bay news conference on Friday, Oct. 3. “Prop. 1
is one more shovel of dirt on the grave of our salmon, crab and other Pacific
fisheries,” said Larry Collins, of the San Francisco Crab Boat Association. “Building
more dams to hold water we don’t have is misplaced spending and harms the
businesses, families and communities that depend upon our salmon, crab and
other fisheries.”
