Grace Napolitano: “The Dirty Water Rule removed protections of the streams and wetlands that are a source of the drinking water to over 117…”

We should recognize the familiarity and workability of the historic Clean Water Act and get on with the preservation of the health of our economy as well as that of our communities.

I believe the Supreme Court purposefully chose to substitute its own philosophy over decades-old, legally grounded efforts to protect water quality.

Each day that passes absent clarity by the Federal government on Sackett compliance is one more day that business and the environment are at risk.

I believe this bill will restore the minimum levels of protections struck down by the conservative Supreme Court.
