US Supreme Court rejects Rio Grande water settlement between New Mexico, Texas, and Colorado.

The US Supreme Court has rejected a settlement between New Mexico, Texas, and Colorado over the management of water from the Rio Grande due to federal concerns over New Mexico's water usage. The proposed settlement aimed to address conflicts and maintain a long-standing water-sharing agreement between the states, but it did not resolve all federal claims. The rejection means the dispute over Rio Grande river water management remains unresolved.
