Can A State Withhold Water From The NSA? California Is About To Find Out

 

 

“The truth, always the truth–at all costs”
 I will strive to give you perspectives on the news that you will rarely receive from other sources. At times, there will be eye-witness reports from troubled areas, at other times, there will be documentary,interviews and other interesting works. 

 

I am committed to providing information by posting/archiving videos, articles, and links. I also investigate to raise awareness on numerous issues, inspire critical thinking, involvement, and hopefully to help make our world a better place for all.

 

According to a recently published report, the report states The plan to cut off the National Security Administration’s water supply is trickling ever closer to becoming a reality in California, where it was just passed out of the state assembly’s Public Safety Committee. It’s a nice little jab at the goverment snoops, but can the bill actually do anything?

 

 

We first saw the OffNow campaign’s legislation back in February, when its leader, Michael Boldin, convinced eight Maryland Republicans to sponsor a similar measure. The bill proposed cutting water and electric support to any federal government agency that conducts unwarranted surveillance. It didn’t go anywhere in Maryland, where the NSA is headquarted, but it did pass California’s Senate, and now it seems like it’ll face a vote in the full assembly.

 

 

At the moment, California doesn’t have any NSA data collection centers, so it seems to be a preemptive or symbolic measure at best.

 

 

Shane Trejo, an OffNow spokesperson, said as much in a press release earlier this year: “It’s not unlikely that [the NSA is] planning to build new data centers and ‘threat operations centers’ in other locations,” he said. “California’s high-tech industry makes it a likely candidate.  We can’t wait until the NSA opens up shop. This act yanks away the welcome mat and tells the NSA, ‘We don’t want you in California unless you follow the Constitution.’”
