They came home from World War II and did what their government asked. They homesteaded the land. They built the canals. They worked the fields.
In exchange, they were promised water rights.

That promise was made to veterans. It's being broken by bureaucrats.
The 5th and 6th generation families of the Klamath Basin are still fighting for what their familieswere owed. Stand with them.

1905: President Roosevelt establishes the Klamath Reclamation Project.
1945: Returning veterans are invited to homestead the land — promised water rights in exchange for their labor.
1964: The farmers pay off every dollar of construction costs.
Today: Washington still controls the water.

A promise made. A promise broken. It's time to finish the mission.

"Skin in the game." It is more than an off hand phrase. How many making decisions that affect the people we serve suffer from poor policy? Let's bring back local control.

For over 20 years, the federal government has cut water to Klamath farmers in the name of recovering endangered fish.

The fish have not recovered.

The farms are going bankrupt.
Both outcomes are a failure and the families paying the price are the ones who built this project by hand and paid it off generations ago.

This has to end. Sign the petition:

In our June edition, we highlight the Kucera family's inspiring journey in the Klamath Basin. Their dedication to agriculture and community connection exemplifies the importance of local stewardship.
Additionally, we thank the Klamath County CattleWomen for their generous donation supporting local water management. As we face a challenging irrigation season, understanding and engaging in local agricultural issues is crucial.

1,200 family farms. 200,000 acres. A $557 million agricultural economy.
All of it held hostage by federal water policy that has failed for over 20 years.

The Klamath Basin isn't just farmland - it's a way of life, a regional economy, and a community that has been let down by the very government that made them a promise.

Six decades later, the federal government still controls their water.
The farmers of the Klamath Basin didn't ask for a handout. They built the irrigation infrastructure, they worked the land, and they paid back every single dollar of construction costs in full.

That's not management. That's a broken promise.
