With attacks hurled at Amara's Law by decision makers at the state and federal levels, we wanted to remind you why we do this work. We work to ensure that everyone has access to healthy, clean, and safe drinking water so that no other family has to lose a loved one. cleanwater.org/2023/01/25/M...

EPA is proposing to weaken wastewater pollution standards for coal-fired power plants. We urge EPA to withdraw this unnecessary proposal. Read our statement: https://cleanwater.org/2026/05/18/clean-water-action-and-clean-water-funds-statement-epas-proposal-weaken-water

A new Netflix documentary, #ThePlasticDetox, investigates how everyday exposure to chemicals in plastic is affecting human health. Toxic chemicals in plastics end up in our air, water, food, and products. The good news: states are stepping up and putting health first. 🧵

1 year into the Trump admin, the “affordability crisis” is worse. Despite #SOTU claims, policies led to a 13% rise in utility costs, loss of 172,000+ clean energy jobs, and weakened water protections. #RealityCheck www.ap.org/news-highlig...

Cute Valentines, PFAS, but we're onto you! The solution? Pass the bill to #banPFAS in common products in Massachusetts THIS year.
