Celebrating the 43rd Anniversary of the Clean Water Act
The American people expect and deserve safe water for consumption, recreation, and community health. For more than 40 years, the Clean Water Act has helped to protect water resources throughout our nation. Before CWA became law, pollution in our rivers and streams was largely left unchecked, impacting not only our health, but our economy. Now some in Congress are attempting to derail the environmental and economic progress that Clean Water Act has made possible. I won't allow it.
