Grace Napolitano: “These are the very same waters and wetlands that are critical to capturing and storing rain and snowmelt.”

Clean water was not always a partisan issue, and no issue has more support among American families than the protection of our nation's waters.

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

In my view, we get lost on questions of who is best suited to protect our water resources, rather than talking about the importance of rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands for current and future needs.

The stone, sand and gravel industry urgently needs clarity and certainty regarding Clean Water Act (CWA) permitting.
