This AddUp supports Representative Peter DeFazio and Representative Grace Napolitano introduction in May of the Clean Water for All Act to repeal the Trump administration’s Dirty Water Rule. This is an important moment for our community. Everyone deserves access to clean water, and that’s why it’s so important that leaders in the House are standing up to the administration’s attempts to roll back our clean water safeguards. The Clean Water For All Act would stop the administration’s awful Dirty Water Rule which jeopardizes the waterways our families, communities, and economies depend on.  

The Dirty Water Rule is a radical reinterpretation of the Clean Water Act that will wipe out protections for streams that provide drinking water to tens of millions of people and wetlands that filter pollution and protect our communities from flooding. We need to do more to protect our water resources, not less.

Clean water is everybody’s responsibility. The Trump administration is going backwards on enforcing protections for our water with the Dirty Water Rule, creating one set of rules for corporate polluters and one for everyone else. Corporate interests like developers, pipeline operators, and fossil fuel companies don’t not deserve special treatment or exemption, but that is exactly what the administration’s Dirty Water Rule will do.

Addup  campaign on water shutoffs is still active. As of June 22th there were 39,087 signatures.
