The short explanation of this alert was:

Yesterday, Governor Schwarzenegger disappointed San Onofre State Beach advocates by voicing his support for the Foothill-South Toll Road to the California Coastal Commission.  In his two-page letter to Coastal Commission Chair, Patrick Kruer, Schwarzenegger states, "I have concluded that this project is essential to protect our environment and the quality of life for everyone in Southern California."

The Governor was wrong last week when he announced that he would close 48 state parks, and he is wrong this week with his letter to the Coastal Commission urging them to support a toll road that will destroy San Onofre State Beach, the 5th most popular state park in California. 

Voters established the Coastal Commission to be independent and nonpolitical, and decide on the future of our coast based on the facts and the law.  This letter represents an unprecedented interference and has improperly injected politics into what should be a decision based on facts and laws. 

It is important that the Governor and his staff not influence Coastal Commission on this matter!  Please take a minute and tell the Governor not to interfere with the public process.
