Allow the International Boundary and Water Commission to accept private funds for wastewater and flood control projects.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with this effort?
H.R. 1948 passed the House on June 9, 2025, but the bill has seen no activity in the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations since that date. The Senate must now review and advance the legislation, though the requirement for 60 votes often stops House bills from becoming law. History shows that most bills passed by one chamber fail to move forward in the other.
