Some of this water could ultimately be transported into the United States.\n\n\u201cArizona is prepared to discuss this project with Mexico but needs the assistance of the federal government to bring in representatives from the country.\n\n\u201cWe look forward to the response from these three departments and learning more about their efforts to help Arizona.\u201d\n\nCongressman Biggs\u2019s letter may be read here.\n\nCosigners of Congressman Biggs\u2019s letter include: Rep. David Schweikert (R-AZ), Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ), Rep. Paul Gosar DDS (R-AZ), Rep.-elect Eli Crane (R-AZ), and Rep.-elect Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ).", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T03:32:05Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://biggs.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-biggs-leads-arizona-effort-improve-depleted-water-supply"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.9908170215785503, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
