Water is essential. It should be affordable for everyone. Yet, 1 in 7 people in the U.S. have unaffordable water bills.

During #WaterWeek, the Water Equity & Climate Resilience Caucus (#WECRCaucus) is calling for federal action. Congress must act to make water affordability a national priority.

Huge news for water justice! Reps. Tlaib and Dingell just introduced the Water Access and Affordability Act to create a permanent federal assistance program at the EPA. Water is essential. Now, Congress must act.

ICYMI: Our #WECRCaucus partners were at #WaterWeek 2026, advancing federal policy solutions for water affordability. For @insideclimatenews.org, they talked about aging systems, rising costs, & the need for long-term support.

At Water Week 2026, Local Leaders See a Glimmer of Hope - Inside Climate News
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed adding microplastics and pharmaceuticals to a list of contaminants in drinking water, but attendees still worried that the administration was prioritizing economic interests over climate and health issues.

Severe drought in Ethiopia has had dangerous consequences for girls. They often sacrifice their health and education to make long journeys to collect water for their families.
