Republicans were adamantly against this a few years ago.

Republicans rip $1B plan to save Snake River salmon

More likely he's one of those wheat farmers dependent on water from those reservoirs and removing the dams will bankrupt his hundred year old family farm.

Deliberately sabotaging 40% of the country's wheat production sounds like a bad idea.
