Support for EPA high across all demos, incl. Trump voters, according to a poll from @EnviroProtNet. Almost 2/3 of Trump voters worry his EPA pick would “put the interests of polluting corps. ahead of protecting clean water, clean air, and public health.”.

Communities need quick access to relief funds to rebuild and prepare for future weather events. The next storm is not "if" but "when.".
American Rivers and 131 partners are calling on Congress to act with urgency to protect families and restore rivers damaged by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. We urge @SpeakerJohnson & @SenSchumer to bring an emergency disaster relief package to the floor so agencies can deliver.

Why is water becoming more unaffordable?. Most of US water infrastructure was built 50+ years ago with federal funds. As federal investments have dried up and costs have risen over the last several decades, water providers have passed on the costs of water infs. to communities.

‼️Important Water Policy News : Last Friday, Reps Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) @RepRashida and Debbie Dingell (D-MI) @RepDebDingell introduced the H2O UP Act of 2024 to establish the first-ever permanent, federal low-income water affordability program at the U.S. EPA.
We all know that water is life. Safe, accessible, affordable drinking water is a human right. We’re introducing the H2O UP Act to establish a permanent Low-Income Drinking Water Assistance Program within the Environmental Protection Agency.
