House Bill 131
119th Congress(2025-2026)
Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act
Active
Vetoed by President on Dec 29, 2025
Bill Intelligence
The bill amends Public Law 87–590 to adjust repayment terms for the Arkansas Valley Conduit project in Colorado, allowing for payments over 75 years with reduced interest.
It aims to provide domestic water supplies to communities and households in need and requires contracting parties to assume care, operation, maintenance, and replacement of the conduit.
The amendment removes the requirement for 35% payment of the conduit's cost under certain conditions and modifies the source of revenue for repayment.
The bill has a specific focus on addressing the water supply needs of underserved communities and households.

Roll Call Vote
A vote that records the individual position of each Member who voted. Such votes occurring on the House floor (by the "yeas and nays" or by "recorded vote") are taken by electronic device. The Senate has no electronic voting system; in such votes, Senators answer "yea" or "nay" as the clerk calls each name aloud. Each vote is compiled by clerks and receives a roll call number (referenced in Congress.gov as a "Record Vote" [Senate] or "Roll no." [House]).
