Nehls (R-TX-22) proudly voted "YES" on the bipartisan Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 2026, which passed the U.S. House of Representatives by a vote of 415-9. "I am proud that the House passed the bipartisan Water Resources Development Act of 2026, which strengthens our nation’s water infrastructure, supports economic growth, and equips the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to build and maintain critical projects across the country," said Congressman Nehls. "This legislation delivers for Texas by supporting continued growth along the Matagorda Ship Channel and renewing and expanding project authorities in Brazoria, Fort Bend, and Galveston Counties. As Texas continues to experience rapid population and economic growth, these investments will help ensure our ports and water infrastructure can keep pace while keeping Texas at the forefront of our nation’s economy."
