Despite claiming that California has the strictest Forestry laws in the country, our irreplaceable, old-growth trees are still being cut. Despite a campaign promise by Governor Davis to ensure that "rivers are clean, wetlands are preserved and all old-growth trees are spared from the lumberjack's axe", trees that have existed for hundreds and thousands of years are continually being logged. We are taking this action because we, the citizens of California, must take this issue into our own hands. In 1911, then Governor Hiram Johnson, granted the citizens of California the power to adopt laws and constitutional amendments without the support of the Governor or the legislature. We are using that power to make a law that will preserve California's heritage trees for future generations.
