Over the past two years, the Bush Administration has used its executive powers to weaken parts of the Clean Water Act. These changes have been made to directly enrich corporate interests who make more money when they can legally pollute our waterways. Of course, this has directly lead to a decrease in the health of the ecosystems fed by these streams, rivers, lakes, and ocean currents... as well as making these water sources more toxic to our own health.
Now, Congress is taking up legislation to return the original protections to the Clean Water Act once again. You can make your voice of support heard here via the League of Conservation Voters.
