Guiding Responsibility on Water Act Introduced

Yesterday Congress Member David Valadao (R-CA) introduced the “Guiding Responsibility on Water Act” (HR 23).  The GROW Act would restore water reliability to California communities by codifying the bipartisan Bay-Delta Accord. It also reforms federal laws – such as the Central Valley Project Improvement Act and the San Joaquin River Restoration Settlement Act – that have affected water delivery. 

The bill currently has 12 Republican cosponsors, including Reps. Cook, McCarthy, LaMalfa, and McClintock.  A copy of the bill text and summary can be viewed here.
