A Hostage Situation

CALITICS labels itself as a "progressive" blog. It generally is, but in the sense that there are some Democrats who can be considered progressives when they are not being too busy discussing Democratic Party internal factionalism.

But, tonight they have posted just about the best warning on the current budget stalemate in Sacramento and what needs to be done about it. There are warnings in here that we should heed including the fact that this would set aside environmental protections for some projects as yet another way for the State to save money. I urge all California Greens to read this.
