Ensuring Predictable and Reliable Water Deliveries Act of 2025

This bill requires the Secretary of State to report to Congress within 180 days, and every year after, on whether Mexico delivered at least 350,000 acre-feet of water to the United States in the prior year under a 1944 water treaty. The report must also assess Mexico's ability to deliver 1,750,000 acre-feet by the end of the treaty's five-year cycle and identify Mexican economic sectors that depend on irrigation from treaty-related water. If the report finds Mexico did not deliver the minimum amount, the President must deny Mexico's emergency requests for special water deliveries, and may limit or end engagement with Mexico's government related to the identified sectors, except for efforts to stop fentanyl and other synthetic drugs. An exception allows emergency deliveries if the Secretary certifies every 120 days that the water will be used only for an ecological, environmental, or humanitarian emergency and is vital to U.S. national interests.
