Assemblymember Bonnie Garcia (R-Cathedral City) yesterday voted against legislation that would have help make solar water heating systems more affordable to Desert families -- the latest in a string of anti-environmental votes made by Garcia.
 
“The Solar Hot Water and Efficiency Act of 2007” (Assembly Bill 1470), would require the Public Utilities Commission to design a program to provide incentives for homeowners to buy solar water heaters. It passed the Assembly 41-31. Garcia joined fellow Republicans in opposing the bill.
