Newsom vetoes bill giving Native tribes greater say in water decisions

Original: Native tribes denied greater say in water decisions with Newsom veto

California Governor Gavin Newsom has vetoed legislation that would have given Native American tribes a greater role in state water management decisions. Tribes had pushed for formal consultation rights over water policy affecting rivers and groundwater on their ancestral lands. The veto denies them that expanded authority, disappointing tribal leaders and environmental advocates who backed the measure.

Why now: Tribes and environmental groups are reacting to the governor's rejection of legislation they had campaigned for.
