Arizona v. Navajo Nation, No. 21-1484, Supreme Court of the United States, 22 Jun 2023.
Primary record
The Navajos filed suit seeking to compel the United States to take affirmative steps to secure needed water for the Tribe—including by assessing the Tribe’s water needs, developing a plan to secure the needed water, and potentially building pipelines, pumps, wells, or other water infrastructure.
Held: The 1868 treaty establishing the Navajo Reservation reserved necessary water to accomplish the purpose of the Navajo Reservation but did not require the United States to take affirmative steps to secure water for the Tribe.
