RE: LEGISLATURE FALSELY ACCUSES DALLAS OF WATER-HOGGING

|

A media-working FBvian isn’t happy with the anti-Dallas drift of the Texas House, either:

Thank you for taking the time to set the record straight on Dallas water usage. Interestingly, the spokesman for the Farm Bureau claims Dallas uses more water per capita than any other U-S city. Of course, he could not source it; but it has become nevertheless a part of the specious arguments advanced by those opposed to SB3. Conservation is critical to the future of the state, no doubt, but this angry and inaccurate portrayal of Dallas As All Things Evil is way over the top and underscores a deepening rift between the state’s urban and rural residents. It’s a damned sad thing to see.

Another FBvian reminds us of this commentary on SB 3, the water bill, by a relatively uknown anchor at CBS11 last week.

Back to you, Dallas and Fort Worth legislative delegation.
