California’s reservoir levels are at a record low as the state is once again in a drought. This is not due to climate change — feckless state leadership is to blame.

The state’s reservoirs are at their lowest levels since 1977, as the state has experienced a long dry stretch. The natural reaction from California Democrats is to throw their hands in the air, give some sanctimonious statement about how the country must fight climate change, and then tell California residents to cut back on their water.
