Information
Organization's Own Description:
The Caucus is made up of a bipartisan coalition of lawmakers who each represent a state along the Colorado River Basin, with members from Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah. The lawmakers will discuss the critical issues along the river and support the work of the Colorado River Basin states on how best to address the worsening levels of drought in the Colorado River Basin.
The Colorado River provides water for over 40 million people in the West, spanning the 7 Colorado River Basin states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. The West U.S. experienced record-breaking drought conditions and water shortages, and Lake Mead and Lake Powell, the country’s two largest reservoirs, are at less than three fourths their normal level. Colorado’s 2nd District is the home of the headwaters of the Colorado River, and more than 40% of Colorado’s water supply comes from the Colorado River.
