The state has known that they had a problem for a decade. They did nothing. Not when the low waters of the drought exposed a much easier landscape for repairs to be made.
They had other priorities for the money. Aiding and abetting hordes of illegals financially.
The cost to provide food, shelter, and other free stuff exceeds the tax revenue paid by the illegals by 90%. It’s in the Billions.
Oroville and Yuba City are just sacrificial lambs for the lunatic liberal save the illegals effort. Moonbeam and Hollywood have other priorities.
