Utah senator: AZ it will forfeit millions in conservation aid if it sues over Colorado River water
U.S. Senator Mike Lee warned Arizona, California, and Nevada that they risk losing $354 million in conservation aid if they pursue litigation over Colorado River water management. The funds, from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, expire in September, and Lee urged states to resolve disputes over water allocation instead of engaging in legal battles.
