Help Protect Our Drinking Water NOW!

Recent Supreme Court rulings have narrowed the scope of protections of the Clean Water Act, putting the drinking water of millions of Americans at risk for contamination.

But the Senate has an opportunity to restore the original protections of the Clean Water Act by supporting the Clean Water Restoration Act.

Please CLICK HERE for the link to send the following letter to your Senator today.

Dear Senator ___,
I am writing to urge you to support the Clean Water Restoration Act and restore the original intentions of the Clean Water Act, which has been compromised by recent Supreme Court rulings.

These rulings narrowed the scope of protections of the Clean Water Act, and as a result have allowed corporate polluters to contaminate streams, rivers, wetlands, lakes, and other previously protected waters.

The loss of Clean Water Act safeguards has put the drinking water of more than 110 million Americans in jeopardy. This is unacceptable.

The Clean Water Restoration Act will not only re-establish protections for drinking water at risk for contamination, but streamline enforcement between federal and local governments to make protection more effective. In addition, this legislation will ensure that water and wetlands used for boating, fishing, and other recreation are kept free of contamination, disease, and bacteria.

Please do your part to support the Clean Water Restoration Act. Thank you.
