Settle water rights claims for the Navajo Nation and the Hopi Tribe in northeastern Arizona.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Northeastern Arizona Indian Water Rights Settlement Act of 2025?
The effort to settle water rights for the Navajo Nation and the Hopi Tribe is currently stalled in the House Committee on Natural Resources as of March 10, 2025. Members of the House committee must take action to move the bill forward, but the primary constraint is that most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote. This lack of action is a common outcome for legislation in Congress.
