(The Center Square) - The U.S. Supreme Court has decided to weigh in on the latest water squabble in the West, where Nebraska has accused Colorado of violating a century-old water rights agreement. Nebraska has set aside $600 million for a new canal that would start along the South Platte River in the northwest corner of Colorado. But the state alleged Colorado has sought to impede the effort, in violation of its compact with Nebraska. The lawsuit also argues that Colorado has not given Nebraska its due amount of water from the river. The Supreme Court announced it will hear the states’ arguments on the issue, giving Colorado until late September to respond. The move comes as water rights grow into an increasingly tense political issue in the West, with Colorado simultaneously involved in the unresolved Colorado River negotiations. “Nebraska will finally have the opportunity to prove that Colorado has violated the Compact and to hold Colorado accountable for depriving Nebraska of water that rightfully belongs to our state,” Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers said in a statement after the Supreme Court announcement last week. The South Platte River Compact, signed by the two states in 1923, divvied up water rights and assigned an order of priority to its access. Under the agreement, Colorado is required to allow a minimum of 120 cubic feet of water per second (cfs) to flow into Nebraska from the river, assuming there is enough water to do so. This only occurs during the irrigation season, between April 1 and Oct. 15, while Colorado has exclusive access to the rest of the year. Colorado has argued that shortages on Nebraska’s water requirements have come from a total lack of supply, which the contract does not require the state to make up for. The Colorado Department of Natural Resources told The Center Square in an email that if it shuts off “junior” water users, those with rights to the river after Nebraska’s, and there is still not enough water to meet Nebraska’s allotted amount, then that is not a break with the contract. But Nebraska Attorney General Hilgers told reporters last week, “We absolutely have not gotten the water to which we are entitled. In fact, it’s gone back decades.” The Supreme Court complaint also argued that Colorado had given junior water users access to the river before Nebraska. In May, U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer recommended that the Supreme Court partially take up Nebraska’s lawsuit and focus on the complaint that Colorado was not delivering its contracted water. Sauer and the U.S. Department of Justice filed an amicus brief in support of Nebraska. The compact also kept the door open for Nebraska to build a canal from the river starting in Colorado to draw additional water, up to 500 cfs, during the non-irrigation season. State lawmakers proposed the project in 2022 and set aside over $600 million for construction of the Perkins County Canal in 2023. “This represents the most significant water infrastructure investment ever made by the State,” Nebraska Department of Water, Energy and Environment Director Jesse Bradley said in an April statement. “This project will ensure the South Platte River will continue to flow into Nebraska for use by irrigators, power providers, municipalities, and the environment all across the state.” Bradley said construction on the canal is planned to finish in 2032. As part of the lawsuit, Nebraska argued that Colorado has attempted to block its canal construction effort, including by fighting Nebraska's eminent domain effort. In a rare interstate move early last year, the state of Nebraska offered $1.4 million for 650 acres of land to Colorado landowners. The offer was accompanied with a threat of forced land purchase, eminent domain, according to Nebraska Public Media. The use of eminent domain across state boundaries was protected in the 1923 compact. Nearly a year after Nebraska sued Colorado over the river water rights, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear the case. The decision came on June 29 and was quickly followed by a rebuttal by Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser. “Colorado is complying with the South Platte River Compact and not interfering with Nebraska’s efforts to build the Perkins County Canal,” Weiser said in a statement in reaction to the Supreme Court’s announcement. “Today’s court decision merely opens the door for Nebraska to bring its claims against Colorado. Nebraska’s burden to prove those claims is incredibly high and we will vigorously defend Colorado’s full entitlements under the compact.” In May, Sauer, the solicitor general, recommended that the Supreme Court partially take up the lawsuit, with a focus on Nebraska’s complaint that Colorado was not delivering its contracted water. The DOJ brief called the complaint of Colorado’s efforts to block the canal construction “unripe,” on account of the effort only beginning in 2023. Across the western U.S., water rights have become a central political issue in recent years amid decades-long droughts and booming populations. The issue has been most visible in the ongoing Colorado River negotiations, which include seven U.S. states and multiple other parties. “Ultimately, the supply of water – I don’t want to say it’s zero-sum – but it’s close to zero-sum,” said Hilgers. “Either we get the water to which we’re entitled, or Colorado land owners get that water. What we’re trying to do is fight for our water supplies.” Hilgers added that he thought the Supreme Court case could go on for years before a resolution. A Supreme Court order for Colorado to file an answer to Nebraska’s complaint within 30 days was granted a 60-day extension until Sept. 28, the Colorado Attorney General’s office told The Center Square.

Votebeat is a nonprofit news organization reporting on voting access and election administration across the U.S. Sign up for our free weekly newsletter to get the latest.President Donald Trump fired all three remaining members of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission on Thursday, abruptly disabling the only federal agency devoted solely to election administration at a moment when Trump has sought to reshape federal voting rules.The two Democratic commissioners, Thomas Hicks and Benjamin Hovland, were notified by email. “On behalf of President Donald J. Trump, I am writing to inform you that your position as Commissioner of the Election Assistance Commission is terminated, effective immediately. Thank you for your service,” the email said. It was signed by Morgan DeWitt Snow, deputy director of presidential personnel in the Executive Office of the President.The third commissioner, Republican Christy McCormick, was allowed to resign, according to three sources within the agency. McCormick declined to comment when reached by phone. The agency’s fourth commissioner, Republican Donald Palmer, voluntarily departed the agency earlier this year to join the Heritage Foundation.The firings leave the four-member commission with no commissioners, meaning it cannot take official action until new members are installed. They also come days after the Supreme Court granted the president power to fire leaders of independent agencies, weakening a legal framework that for decades had insulated bipartisan federal commissions from direct White House control.The EAC was created by Congress after the 2000 election to help states improve election administration without federalizing elections.Its role is mostly supportive: distributing federal election funds, maintaining the national mail voter registration form, testing and certifying voting systems, and offering best practices and guidance to state and local election officials. Trump cannot simply install replacement EAC commissioners on his own. Commissioners must be nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate, and no more than two can come from the same party. Neither the White House nor the EAC immediately responded to a request for comment. A possible legal test after Supreme Court rulingsThe Supreme Court issued two major removal-power decisions at the end of its term in late June. In Trump v. Slaughter, the court overturned decades of precedent and said that the president may remove leaders of independent agencies, such as the Federal Trade Commission, which was the subject of the case. In a separate case involving the Federal Reserve, however, the court recognized a different rule for Fed governors, pointing to the long historical independence of central banking institutions.Whether bipartisan election agencies fall into the first category, the second, or some yet-undefined exception remains unresolved.“It’s an open question about the EAC and the [Federal Election Commission],” said Rick Hasen, an election law professor at UCLA. “The question has not been tested as to whether political entities created with bipartisan balance might be subject to another exception.”Earlier this year, Trump fired Ellen Weintraub, a Democratic commissioner on the FEC who had served for years in holdover status after her term expired. Weintraub did not sue, leaving unresolved whether the president can fire members of bipartisan election commissions at will.If any of the fired EAC commissioners challenge their removals, the case could become the first direct test of whether the Supreme Court’s new removal-power doctrine extends to federal election agencies structured around bipartisan balance.The Help America Vote Act, which created the EAC, says the president is supposed to consider recommendations from the Senate and House majority and minority leaders when nominating new EAC commissioners.In practice, Hasen said, that means both parties typically work with the administration to identify nominees. But “that’s more a custom than something that’s in the statute itself.”That means Trump could try to nominate Democrats acceptable to him, though they would still need Senate confirmation. HAVA does not appear to create a separate shortcut for temporary commissioners: Vacancies are filled “in the manner in which the original appointment was made,” meaning presidential appointment and Senate confirmation. A recess appointment could raise separate legal questions.A bipartisan agency with no commissioners leftThe EAC does not run elections or tell local officials how to run them, but the agency has long been politically contested. Congress designed it as a bipartisan commission, with no more than two members from the same party, but vacancies, partisan fights, and leadership turmoil have repeatedly limited its ability to act. Election officials and watchdogs have also criticized the agency at different points for failing to assert itself on election security, even as its responsibilities became more urgent after Russian interference in the 2016 election.Hicks, the commission’s chair, had served on the EAC since 2014 and previously worked for Democrats on the House Administration Committee, which oversees federal election law and election administration. Hovland joined the commission in 2019 after being unanimously confirmed by the Senate and had previously served as acting chief counsel to the Senate Rules Committee and as a senior counsel on election matters.McCormick had served on the EAC since 2014 and previously worked as a senior trial attorney in the voting section of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division.What happens while the EAC is frozenThe immediate practical effect is clear: The EAC cannot act.That could stall not only routine commission business, but also any attempt by the Trump administration to use the agency to alter the federal voter registration form or voting-system standards before the 2026 midterms.The EAC also oversees the federal testing and certification program for voting systems, accrediting labs and certifying whether machines meet federal standards known as the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines. Many states rely on that certification before allowing voting equipment to be purchased or used.With no commissioners in place, it is unclear whether the agency can approve new certifications, update lab guidance, or resolve policy questions tied to voting-system standards.The EAC has been without a quorum before. For years, vacancies rendered the agency unable to perform major parts of its work, contributing to long delays in updating voting-system guidance. The agency regained stability only after the Senate confirmed new commissioners in 2019.Now, with the 2026 election cycle underway, the agency is again frozen — this time not because commissioners resigned or terms expired, but because the president removed all of them at once.Jessica Huseman is Votebeat’s editorial director and is based in Dallas.
