Opponents of bottled water spending are calling on Governor Pawlenty to stop spending state money on bottled water.

Think Outside the Bottle and Corporate Accountability International objects state spending on bottled water because it's still "privatized processed water" instead of tap water controlled by government.

Thousands of opponents in all 50 states are asking their governors to cut bottle water spending.

Think Outside the Bottle and Corporate Accountability International presented Governor Pawlenty with a signed letter urging him to cut state spending on bottle water.

A lot of the state's spending on bottled water is also for the large refillable water coolers.
