SACRAMENTO, CA – State Senator Melissa Hurtado (D-Sanger) today issued the following statement on the Senate Budget and Fiscal Review Committee’s 2019-2020 budget proposal:
“There are a few things we can all agree on: It is a shame that in a state as wealthy and resourceful as ours, a million-plus people don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. Furthermore, our most underserved communities continue to lack timely access to health care – particularly in Southern Central Valley. These issues disproportionately affect my communities and keep me up at night.
