Infographic: New EPA report finds 19.2 million households in the U.S. face unaffordable water bills.
Infographic: 1 in 7 people in the U.S. pay more than 3% of their income toward their water and wastewater bills.
Infographic: The EPA reports says the U.S. needs $8.8 billion per year to provide enough assistance to help low-income families struggling to pay their water bills each month.
Quote graphic featuring Monica Lewis-Patrick, CEO of We the People of Detroit: "We hope the EPA water affordability report spurs action, both in establishing a permanent water bill assistance program to help families in need, but also as a call to action to support water systems with the technical assistance and funding necessary to ensure the increasing costs of delivering safe, reliable water aren't pushed onto people already struggling to pay their water bills."
💰Let’s close the water affordability gap: per a new EPA report, the U.S. needs to invest $8.8 billion a year for families to have permanent relief from high water costs. We can solve the water crisis together!
