During this water crisis, Congressmen Devin Nunes has been calling for change in Washington. He even brought a Republican colleague to personally see for his own eyes the impact to agriculture and the human toll on the westside. In this Central Valley Focus, Nunes and Representative Steve King of Iowa sit down with Jon Brent.. what you'll hear is their belief that unless there is change at the top of the congressional hierarchy, the water crisis in the valley will continue.

This Mark character has clearly lost his mind. It is very simple, the west side of our valley is being destoyed because the government is choosing fish over people. Clowns like Mark are okay with this. Demcorats should fear 2010...

Nunes is doing his Republican part to try to fool the uneducated poor masses into thinking Democrats in Washington don't think our Valley should have clean water. Good job, Nunes... at misleading the general public... go confess your sins... again.

Republicans claim conservative christian values and they are the poor and average man champions. But the only give tax breaks to the rich and business and expect it to "trickle-down" to us. Except it trickles down into the pockets of the rich only and the rest of the families and poor get shafted.

What? Why would a bunch of random Republicans in Washington give 2 cents about our Valley water problem? Would they give a bunch of big companies huge tax breaks to work on our Valley water problems and not account for the millions in fraud that would result?
