Padilla, Schiff, and Ruiz opposed an Army Corps proposal to deauthorize New River and Imperial County environmental infrastructure projects; the release says the projects had $20 million in federal wastewater-infrastructure authorization and still required congressional action before deauthorization.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This shows the infrastructure push remained unresolved and faced a potential federal rollback, while Ruiz took concrete action to preserve eligibility and oppose deauthorization.

Ruiz took concrete federal-office actions consistent with the promise: he joined opposition to deauthorization of New River and Imperial County wastewater infrastructure projects and engaged EPA Region 9 and USIBWC around binational investment, recurring funding, public reporting, and the FY27 Calexico Wastewater Treatment Plant restoration/rehabilitation priority. However, the evidence does not show enacted FY27 funding, completed rehabilitation, or a finalized federal investment outcome. Because the promised spending/infrastructure result remains pending but Ruiz materially advanced and defended it during the same federal term, this merits partial credit rather than full delivery.
