In a move that has stunned nature lovers across
the state, Gov. Schwarzenegger's latest budget proposal would shut down 20
percent of the state's parks, as well as cut down on lifeguards at state
beaches. Of course, we all know California
needs to balance the budget. But we're talking about a step that would save $9
million -- less than 0.1 percent of the state budget. Meanwhile, the costs to our
environment, our quality of life, and our confidence in state government would
be incalculable.
Let's kill this idea before it gets any further. Please urge the governor to back off of this wrong-headed move.
