House Gets Hells Canyon Dam Bill After Senate OK
The Senate approved the Hells Canyon dam bill 45 to 38, sending it to the House where passage would likely trigger a presidential veto. The measure would authorize a large federal dam on the Snake River, potentially flooding sites for three proposed private dams and marking a public power victory over Idaho Power Co. The vote reflected broader political stakes in the Pacific Northwest and civil rights debate loaded into the surrounding political fallout.
