For over 45 years Clean Water Action has succeeded in winning some of the nation's most important environmental protections through grassroots organizing, expert policy research and political advocacy focused on holding elected officials accountable to the public.

We're currently fighting to increase investments in water infrastructure, so that no other community has to go through the crisis that happened in Flint, and in order to reduce the flow of raw sewage and storm water runoff pollution into the Great Lakes.
