Justices on the U.S. Supreme Court appear split as they weigh a dispute involving the federal government and the Navajo Nation's quest for water from the drought-stricken Colorado River.
The Supreme Court seemed split Monday as it weighed a dispute involving the federal government and the Navajo Nation's quest for water from the drought-stricken Colorado River.
Arguing on behalf of the Biden administration, attorney Frederick Liu said that if the court were to side with the Navajo Nation, the federal government could face lawsuits from many other tribes. Four of the court's justices, including its three liberals, seemed sympathetic to the tribe's case. But other conservatives including Justice Samuel Alito were skeptical during nearly two hours of arguments at the high court.
A federal trial court initially dismissed the lawsuit, but an appeals court allowed it to go forward.
