WATERKEEPER ALLIANCE URGES CONGRESS TO REJECT PERMITTING BILL THAT THREATENS CLEAN WATER PROTECTIONS

With a Senate vote potentially coming as early as November 9, the organization is calling on senators to vote no on legislation that threatens clean water, public health, wildlife, and communities nationwide.

The more than 400-page proposal would significantly alter federal permitting processes, limiting environmental review and public participation while making it harder for communities to challenge harmful or unlawful project approvals.

“This bill isn’t progress. Our environmental laws are intended to protect human health and our natural resources. Weakening these bedrock laws in the name of “clean energy” is a significant step backwards,” said Jacqueline Esposito, Advocacy Director for Waterkeeper Alliance.
