Grace Napolitano: “It is time that they got recognition, that they have been overlooked.”

To me, the answer is clear. We should recognize the familiarity and workability of the historic Clean Water Act.

Since 1973, American Rivers has protected wild rivers, restored damaged rivers, and conserved clean water for people and nature.

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

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