Yet another vital piece of environmental legislation in the United States is at risk, and this time it's our water that will suffer. Supreme Court justices have recently expressed alleged concern about the "broad reach" of the Clean Water Act. At a time when our ecosystems are arguably more fragile than ever from the threat of global climate change, we cannot afford to take any more steps backward. But Congress can act quickly to save our water supply and water resources, codifying the Clean Water Act into law!
The Clean Water Act has historically been a cornerstone of U.S. environmental policy. For decades, it was used by the EPA to protect society's right to clean water -- both in our taps and in the country's wetlands and waterways. We cannot let a handful of right-wing judges destroy our water supply! Sign the petition now if you agree!
