Action: Campaign for Clean Water The White House is attempting to change the Clean Water Act to allow waste from mining operations to be legally dumped into waterways. Fortunately, a bipartisan group in the House of Representatives has introduced legislation that would block this destructive rule change. Ask your representative to speak out against the administration's attack on our rivers and streams and cosponsor this important piece of legislation. Click the link above to voice your opinion. |
