California Tackles Toxic Border Sewage

Governor Newsom is pouring $46 million into tackling the toxic sewage crisis at the Tijuana River, a problem that’s dumped over 100 billion gallons of raw waste since 2018—posing serious health risks. This funding, from voters’ approved Proposition 4, targets grants to reduce bacteria, trash, and public health threats, but environmental advocates say it’s a drop in the bucket. They’re demanding federal investment to overhaul failing wastewater systems and calling for a unified, long-term solution, since California can’t fix this decades-old border mess alone.
