Water activists to rally in Fresno: Hundreds, perhaps thousands, expected

 

Is this another case of farm workers being paid to "rally" for valley agribusiness? Does big ag really care? No this is just more "spin" from Burson-Marsteller (B-M), the astroturfing PR firm hired by the California Latino Water Coalition, a "front" group with a phony name that really represents big ag. (B_M is the same firm that was hired to cover up 3 Mile Island)

 

At the Salazar meeting UFW president, Arturo Rodriguez exposed the contradiction between agribusiness asking for new water infrastructure when farmworkers are denied clean drinking water in the fields.(Six died last year due to heat)
