In this paper we examine congressional policy concerning water rights from 1889-1997. We examine both congressional committee hearings (n=appx. 280) and witnesses (n=appx. 3800) to determine what key issues are involved in water rights policy and how the participants and issue monopolies have changed over time. Through our coding of the tone of the hearings and witnesses, as well as public attention to water rights issues, we construct measures of dominance that track how congressional water policy has developed.
