California Governor Brown signs $1 billion emergency drought package


    (Reuters) - California Governor Jerry Brown signed emergency legislation on Friday that fast-tracks over $1 billion in funding for drought relief and water infrastructure within the parched state.

    ?This funding is just one piece of a much larger effort to help those most impacted by the drought and prepare the state for an uncertain future,? said Brown in a statement. ?Rain is not in the forecast and every Californian must be doing their utmost to conserve water.?
