House Fails to Override Trump's Veto on Colorado Water Pipeline
The U.S. House of Representatives declined to override President Trump's veto of a bill to fund the completion of the Arkansas Valley Conduit water pipeline in southeastern Colorado, with the bill failing to reach the two-thirds majority needed. The project, first approved in 1962, aims to provide clean water to struggling communities, but Trump cited concerns over federal costs. The veto was part of broader political tensions, including retaliation against Colorado over a prison case.
