参议院听取了关于一项50亿美元的法案的证词,该法案旨在解决亚利桑那东北部的部落用水权问题,目的是提供清洁用水,并申明纳瓦霍、霍皮和圣胡安南派图部落的主权。 The Senate heard testimony on a $5 billion bill to resolve tribal water rights in northeastern Arizona, aiming to deliver clean water and affirm sovereignty for the Navajo, Hopi, and San Juan Southern Paiute tribes.

美国参议院印第安人事务委员会就第953号《亚利桑那东北部印第安人水权解决法案》(2025年)举行了听证会,其目的是解决纳瓦霍部落、Hopi部落和San Juan South Paiute部落之间长期存在的水权纠纷。 The U.S. Senate Committee on Indian Affairs held a hearing on S. 953, the Northeastern Arizona Indian Water Rights Settlement Act of 2025, which aims to resolve long-standing water rights disputes among the Navajo Nation, Hopi Tribe, and San Juan Southern Paiute Tribe. 该法案在部落领袖的支持下,将提供大约50亿美元的联邦资金,用于建设供水基础设施,确保可靠地获得清洁用水,并通过由多方参与的谈判协议,确认部落主权。 The bill, backed by tribal leaders, would provide about $5 billion in federal funding to build water infrastructure, secure reliable access to clean water, and affirm tribal sovereignty through a negotiated agreement involving multiple parties. 证词强调了持续的困难,包括家庭拖水,并强调了定居点在提供“湿水”而不是不可执行的权利方面的作用。 Testimony highlighted ongoing hardships, including families hauling water, and emphasized the settlement’s role in delivering "wet water" rather than unenforceable rights. 参议员们表示广泛支持,但有人对费用和执行方面的挑战表示关切,联邦官员申明承诺履行信任责任,通过立法推动公平解决办法。 While senators expressed broad support, concerns were raised over the cost and implementation challenges, with federal officials affirming commitment to fulfilling trust responsibilities and advancing equitable solutions through legislation.
