Hydropower Bill Heads to White House

Congress has passed bipartisan legislation to extend deadlines for hydropower projects, sending the bill to President Donald Trump for signature. The measure allows federal regulators to give stalled projects more time to begin construction, helping revive dozens of developments across multiple states after pandemic and supply chain delays. Keeping these projects alive supports a reliable energy supply—and creates opportunities for the kind of large-scale infrastructure work that puts UA members on the job.
