Robert Redford sent out an email to Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) supporters with a strong anti-Prop 90 message:
Prop 90 is the single most dangerous threat that has ever been leveled at our state's environment. As a native and long-time resident of California, I don't say that lightly.
Prop 90 will make it virtually impossible for our state and local governments to do their job of protecting the wildlife, wild lands and other natural resources that make California the special place that it is.
You're going to hear that a lot if Proposition 90 passes next month. Millions of people are going to wake up the morning after Election Day and wish they'd read the fine print.
Please don't be one of them.
I'm glad to see that the theme of trickery, "secret" fine print, bait-and-switch, etc, is taking hold in all the discussion of Prop. 90. We saw that in both the SD U-T editorial and subsequent front-page piece, and in other editorials all over the state. I really hope word gets out on this before it is too late.
