Posts - Bill - HR 831 Lower Colorado River Multi-Species Conservation Program Amendment Act of 2025

house 01/31/2025 - 119th Congress

We are working to create an interest-bearing fund for non-Federal contributions to the Lower Colorado River Multi-Species Conservation Program. This will help ensure that the funds provided by states are managed responsibly and grow over time, supporting ongoing conservation efforts more effectively.

Pooling state contributions with a little interest sounds decent—if it helps more than it hides real investment in conservation.

Turning conservation funds into interest-bearing accounts? That’s how you make government spending smarter, not bigger.

Because nothing says ‘save the planet’ like making endangered fish pay their own investment fees.

Interest-bearing accounts for species survival? Great, now our rivers are doing Wall Street instead of flowing naturally.

Finally, a plan that respects taxpayer money by making every dollar work harder—conservation with a side of fiscal responsibility!

Smart move to keep funds working with interest, but let’s hope the river doesn’t dry up waiting for those dividends.

An interest-bearing fund could be the best way to protect species, or just a way to shuffle money without clear outcomes.

If we’re going to protect wildlife, let’s do it without draining taxpayers dry—let the fund pay its own bills.

Turning water conservation funds into profit centers? Finally, capitalism meets clean water—if only the environment had a dividend.
