Add your name: Fund the replacement of dangerous lead water lines
In a recent study, almost 80 percent of nearly 800 homes tested across the U.S. had detectable levels of lead in their tap water, and 15 percent had levels high enough to damage the IQ of bottle-fed babies.
We must not allow this harmful substance to continue contaminating our drinking water, and removing lead service lines is a commonsense solution that can make a difference right now.
As the House negotiates putting as much as $11 billion toward clean water infrastructure -- including the replacement of lead service lines -- in the new federal budget, you can help make cleaner, lead-free water a reality by sending a message urging your U.S. House representative to pass this crucial funding.
