Kansas water dispute with Nebraska gains federal support
The U.S. solicitor general urged the Supreme Court to hear Kansas suit against Nebraska over Republican River water use. The brief argues the deadlock could be resolved only by the court, while Nebraska asks the court to pass. Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall welcomed the move as the court weighs whether to take the case. Kansas previously prevailed against Colorado in a similar water dispute.
