INTERIM. Property Rights. Water Rights. 3 Points from TX Farmers & 1 State Rep.

  • non-farmers calling rural landowners’ water rights a “gold mine” displeases farmers
  • compensation for taking water is not the solution
  • creating a water market is ” shortsighted and selfish”

“I look forward to working with my constituents and concerned citizens from all over the state to develop legislation that would promote the long-term welfare and prosperity of our communities, including exploring opportunities for conservation technologies to reduce demand and lessen our reliance on groundwater,” concluded  State Representative Cyrier.
