亚利桑那州已加入内华达州对特朗普政府提议的科罗拉多河水份额削减政策提起法律诉讼1。内政部在今年夏季宣布的限制措施可能在未来两年内削减下游盆地州（包括亚利桑那州、加州和内华达州）的水供应1。
亚利桑那州州长凯蒂·霍布斯表示"我们在划一条底线"1。霍布斯批评联邦政府拒绝追究上游盆地州对亚利桑那州的水量债务，并警告联邦政府威胁要实施超出《下游盆地协议》范围的严苛削减1。
上游盆地州包括怀俄明州、科罗拉多州、犹他州和新墨西哥州，这些州被豁免削减措施1。当前，米德湖和鲍威尔湖已创下历史低位1。
Arizona has joined Nevada in challenging proposed reductions to their Colorado River water allocations announced by the federal Department of Interior this summer.1 The restrictions threaten to cut water supplies to downstream basin states—Arizona, California, and Nevada—over the next two years, while upstream basin states, including Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico, have been exempted from the cuts.1
Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs stated: "We are drawing a line in the sand."1 Hobbs emphasized that the federal government has declined to hold upstream basin states accountable for water debts owed to Arizona and is threatening to impose severe cuts that exceed the scope of the Downstream Basin Agreement.1 The situation has been compounded by historic low levels at Lakes Mead and Powell.1
