Das, a Man of Integrity
For nearly 20 years, Das Williams has been
advocating for our community and has been known as a man of integrity.
Das was elected to the Board of Supervisor 53
days after Santa Barbara County voters passed Measure 64, paving the way for
legal cannabis cultivation. Since then, he has worked tirelessly to ensure that
growers follow regulations and to close down operations that don’t comply.
When many of the flower growers were forced
out of business, he focused on keeping our dying agricultural base alive by having
regulated cannabis, with well-paying jobs that infuse local cash into our
economy and our school district. The cannabis growers now occupy greenhouses
that would have stood vacant.
