Senate to review major tribal water rights bills

Several tribal water rights settlement bills are advancing to the U.S. Senate, aiming to fund critical infrastructure projects and secure long-term water access for Indigenous communities. The legislation includes settlements for the Navajo Nation, Fort Belknap Indian Community, and the Crow Tribe, among others. Lawmakers emphasize that these measures will uphold federal trust responsibilities and provide sustainable water management for tribes.
