Bipartisan group of South Texas lawmakers accuse Mexico of violating Water Treaty
A bipartisan group of 11 South Texas state lawmakers this week sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in which they accused the Mexican government of failing to provide the Rio Grande Valley with water as required under the 1944 Water Treaty. The letter is the latest attempt to get Mexico to abide by the seven-decade-old agreement, which requires the country to deliver 350,000 acre-feet of water annually every five years. Disputes over the treaty date back years, and U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, made a 2023 request for Blinken to intervene.
