Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The Bureau of Reclamation declared 2026 the deadline for the seven affected U.S. states to propose alternatives to the laws governing the Colorado River. The book suggests that the Trump administration has imposed its own laws on the river due to the impasse among the states. The author argues that century-old laws create a systemic barrier to progress regarding the growing water crisis.
