Quiver AI Summary

On July 21, 2025, Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz and Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller announced $280 million in drought relief funding for South Texas farmers. This funding is part of the 1944 Water Treaty Agricultural Assistance Program, secured through recent legislation aimed at addressing water supply issues resulting from Mexico's treaty non-compliance.

Congresswoman De La Cruz emphasized the importance of the funding, stating it is "critical for Texas farmers and ranchers" who have faced significant losses. Commissioner Miller called the funding a "lifeline" for agriculture producers affected by the drought.

The funds are expected to be disbursed this week and are designed to aid local agricultural communities impacted by Mexico's failure to provide required water deliveries under the 1944 treaty.
