I’m proud to share a new report from the US Water Alliance: The Path to Universally Affordable Water Access: Guiding Principles for the Water Sector, which outlines solutions and guiding principles for a new approach to water affordability.

Everyone, regardless of income, should have safe, reliable access to our most essential resource—water. Shutoffs for low-income households when they cannot pay water bills is a drastic and unnecessary response to poverty. And alternatives to such measures are within our reach!
Today as you go to the voting booth and consider our #climate future, watch this important short film - it will help guide your decisions. nowness.com/story/abalone-ey…
Don’t ever doubt that your voice matters and your #vote can change the course of our #future. Imagine what the state of our rivers and waterways might have been had Carl Stokes not been elected! @gary_belan #Midterms2022
Carl Stokes served as Cleveland's first Black mayor & changed the course of💧history by championing the #CleanWaterAct. Today, we're honoring Mayor Stokes as an inspiring example—reminding us that our votes, voices, & actions have the power to create immense and lasting change.

Thanks to all who joined us for #ImagineADayWithoutWater! We were deeply inspired by the stories of community & commitment to #OneWater principles from around the world. Here are just a few highlights from this community that had us dreaming of a brighter future for water 😌
If you know me you know I’m a big @LEGO_Group fan. If they make this happen I’ll be a fan for life.
And if you didn’t already know, wastewater people have the best jokes!
LEGO Ideas received a "Sewer Heroes: Fighting the Fatberg" building set idea. 10,000+ supported the project to review phase. If selected, the set goes to development! 🤞 We can't wait to see if it's green-lit... or if it's flushed down the toilet. ideas.lego.com/projects/d653…

My local #water utility @CFPUA installed granular activated carbon filters that remove #PFAS. I met the director @kennyraywald and deputy Beth Eckert to raise a glass of tap to celebrate. Thanks to the $43 million investment my community has some of the country’s cleanest water.

Just 50 yrs ago, our waterways - the lifeblood of our communities - were in rapid decline from industrialization & neglect. The Clean Water Act continues to be the most transformative law on the mgmt of water pollution. Today, we celebrate & champion what remains to accomplished.
Today marks the 50th anniversary of the #cleanwateract and the release of the final video in our original series. I’m honored to have been entrusted with these important voices and insights. There is work left to do! Join the #onewater movement today! 💙
What's next for the future of water? The #CleanWaterAct turns 50 today – what are your hopes and dreams for the next 50 years of water in your community? uswateralliance.org/resource…
