TULE RIVER TRIBE RESERVED WATER RIGHTS SETTLEMENT ACT OF 2023 Congressional Record, Volume 170 Issue 145 (Wednesday, September 18, 2024) [Congressional Record Volume 170, Number 145 (Wednesday, September 18, 2024)] [Senate] [Page S6139] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] TULE RIVER TRIBE RESERVED WATER RIGHTS SETTLEMENT ACT OF 2023 Mr. GRASSLEY. Mr. President, today, as ranking member of the Budget Committee, I placed a hold on S. 306, the Tule River Tribe Reserved Water Rights Settlement Act of 2023. Although I don't find fault with the substance of the bill, the legislation is not paid for and would violate multiple budget enforcement rules. According to the Congressional Budget Office, the bill would increase the deficit by $804 million. ____________________ Referenced legislation: S306, S306
