Priority Focus

The Tijuana River
Crisis

The Tijuana River flows from Mexico into San Diego County, carrying raw sewage, industrial waste, and toxic runoff — contaminating beaches, wetlands, and coastal communities on both sides of the border.

This cross-border crisis has persisted for decades, closing beaches, devastating wildlife, and threatening public health for millions. It demands urgent, collaborative action — not more waiting.

⚠️
Chronic Sewage Spills
Over 100 million gallons of raw sewage released annually, contaminating the river and Pacific Ocean shoreline.
🏖️
Beach Closures
Imperial Beach and surrounding areas have faced repeated closures, harming communities and local economies.
🌿
Ecosystem Destruction
The Tijuana Estuary — a critical habitat for migratory birds and marine life — is under severe stress from ongoing pollution.
