À propos de ce contenu audio

Farmers are asking questions after Seattle’s mayor has abruptly replaced Skagit River dam operator Seattle City Light’s leader with anti-agriculture lawyer Dennis McLerran, who boasts connections with a laundry list of manipulative and unethical attacks on farming in Washington state.

Jay Gordon with the Washington State Dairy Federation joins Dillon to detail McLerran’s troubling history with farming in the state, including the widely-criticized What’s Upstream campaign, the EPA’s falsified-science attack on Lower Yakima Valley dairies, and other anti-farm actions.

The farming community is expressing its deep distrust of McLerran as Seattle City Light, the 9th largest public utility in the U.S. that he now leads, attempts to federally re-license its major hydroelectric dams on the Skagit River while avoiding costly fish-passage upgrades by instead converting farmland to fish habitat.
