We are deeply concerned by the federal budget proposal for its sweeping, reckless cuts to the agencies and programs that protect the #GreatLakes, enforce #CleanWater laws, and safeguard the drinking water of more than 30 million Americans across the region. Read our full statement: buff.ly/eG8ecFV

Know your water. Ask your city who funds it. Ask what is upstream. Ask why those questions are hard to get answered. The water does not lie. The silence does.
