WASHINGTON – On June 22, 2023, Congressman David G. Valadao (CA-22) spoke in support of the Fiscal Year 2024 (FY24) Energy and Water Appropriations Bill during a full committee markup. The bill text includes Rep. Valadao’s Working to Advance Tangible and Effective Reforms (WATER) for California Act.

“For too long, complex and contradictory laws and regulations that control how much water we are able to pump, and what storage projects we’re able to build and use, have amplified the water shortage problems across the western United States,” said Congressman Valadao. “Provisions in this bill will help alleviate some of these issues by increasing water storage, streamlining operations, and bringing much needed accountability to the way water is managed.”
