It is really dry in northern Montana, but it is a lot drier in Arizona. So I know you understand the importance of water very, very well.
I want to start by expressing my ongoing concerns with this really unprecedented rulemaking agenda you have pursued since taking over at the SEC.
It is the last water rights battle we have in Indian Country, and it is a big deal for Montana.
Without finalized settlements, our farmers, our ranchers, our water users are left in limbo.
