Urge our congressmen to support the Clean Water Restoration Act. Here is a sample email/letter and phone numbers.

Dear Congressmember:

As a constituent, I am writing to urge you to support the Clean Water Restoration Act. This legislation would restore the original intentions of the Clean Water Act, which has been compromised by recent Supreme Court rulings and help protect our citizens.

These rulings narrowed the scope of protections of the Clean Water Act, and as a result have allowed developers and corporate polluters to contaminate streams, rivers, wetlands, lakes, and other previously protected waters.

The loss of Clean Water Act safeguards has put the drinking water of more than 110 million Americans in jeopardy. This is unacceptable.

The Clean Water Restoration Act would not only restore protections to drinking water at risk for contamination, but it would also streamline enforcement among Federal, state, and local governments, providing better protection of sensitive areas. In addition, it will ensure that water and wetlands used for boating, fishing, and other recreation are kept free of contamination, disease, and bacteria.

Please do your part to restore the critical protections of the Clean Water Act by supporting the Clean Water Restoration Act. Thank you.
