Plain-English Summary
The federal government would provide additional money to restore the San Joaquin River in California, which has been damaged by water diversions and agricultural use over many decades. The funding would support efforts to improve water flow, rebuild fish populations, and restore wetlands and natural habitats along the river, benefiting both the environment and local communities that depend on the river's water and ecosystem.
