Support american irrigated agriculture as beneficial to national security. 3. Protect agricultural water rights. 4. Protect and value water rights as private property rights. 5. Oppose the taking of private property without just compensation. 6. Uphold the doctrine of prior appropriation. 7. Promote responsible management of watersheds. 8. Achieve quality results through consistent, honest forthrightness.
