Republican governors called on President Joe Biden to delay the implementation of a new federal water rule pending a Supreme Court decision in a case related to the Clean Water Act (CWA) expected this summer.

The Republican Governors Association (RGA) sent the letter (pdf) to Biden administration officials to delay the implementation of the revised Waters of the United States (WOTUS) rule, which the RGA said would “create new bureaucratic hurdles at the state level only for the court’s decision to potentially render them moot.”
