As California and the entire Colorado River basin enter another record year of drought, we barely seem to be staying ahead of the game.  Despite our best efforts, demand for water in the river basin exceeds supply, with the gap increasing in each subsequent year of drought. With over 40 million people depending on Colorado River water, the importance of the river cannot be overstated. For Latinos in the basin, in particular, diminishing water supplies are both an economic and very personal matter.
