If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by appropriating $1,000,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2027 specifically to the Colorado River litigation fund. This fund is established under section 45-119 of the Arizona Revised Statutes and is intended for litigation related to the state's apportionment of Colorado River water and other associated rights.

The bill introduces new language that specifies the appropriation of these funds, thereby enhancing the financial resources available for legal actions concerning Colorado River water rights. The current law remains unchanged, but the new provisions will ensure that the Colorado River litigation fund is adequately supported for its intended purposes.
