Imagine a day without water. Thanks to historic investments in water infrastructure and systems, we don’t have to. Work remains, but together, we can continue to invest in America’s greatest resource. (fb)

This announcement is a much-needed step forward in the work to remove lead from drinking water across the county. And while replacing lead services lines over the next decade is an ambitious goal, this kind of urgency sends a clear message: Everyone deserves access to clean, safe, affordable drinking water, and we must act quickly to make that a reality. Together, state and federal governments, water systems, on-the-ground organizations, and advocacy groups must join one another to make this goal possible. Each of us has a role to play in achieving this mission — from allocating to securing and deploying funds to providing technical guidance and raising public awareness. We look forward to working with our partners, new and old, to protect our most important resource and ensure its equitable, safe access for every home. (fb)
