U.S. Senators for Texas, Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, have introduced new legislation to address Mexico's water delivery shortfalls under the 1944 Water Treaty.

The bill, called the "Ensuring Predictable and Reliable Water Deliveries Act of 2025," notes that Mexico delivered only about 50% of its required water in the last 5-year cycle, which ended in October 2025.

The legislation would authorize the U.S. President to impose repercussions, such as denying non-treaty water requests, if Mexico fails to meet its obligations. The goal is to protect Texas farmers and ranchers affected by the shortages.

Heads up RGV travelers ✈️
The FAA has announced flight capacity reductions in 40 markets, including major hubs like Dallas (DFW/DAL) and Houston (IAH/HOU), starting today, November 7, due to the federal government shutdown. While both the Brownsville (BRO) and Harlingen (VIA) airports report that they are fully staffed and under normal operations, these national reductions will likely impact connecting flights. All passengers are strongly advised to contact their airline directly or continuously monitor their airline's website or app for the most up to date and accurate information regarding their flight status.
