**Headline:** Seven States Can’t Share Water, But They’re Great at Missing Deadlines
After two years of back-and-forth, seven western states still can’t figure out how to split the Colorado River’s shrinking water supply. California, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico had a deadline this past Saturday to reach an agreement—but spoiler alert: they missed it.
So, what’s the hold-up? You’d think with all that time, they’d have hashed it out by now. But nope, just more talking and less action. The river’s running dry, but these states are apparently too busy to come to a consensus.
It’s almost comical how they can negotiate for years and still end up empty-handed. Meanwhile, the rest of us just want to know why they can’t seem to get their act together. Isn’t it funny how urgent issues like water management seem to get lost in bureaucratic red tape?
Maybe next time, they’ll remember that “talking it out” doesn’t work if you can’t agree on anything. But then again, who needs water when you can have endless meetings?
