    Because We Can't All Live Upstream

    Since 1972 we've fought for a clean water future.

    As we celebrate our 40th anniversary, we need you to help us continue to protect our water. 

  • Protect ALL our water

    Protect ALL Water

    Polluting interests continue to oppose the Administration’s efforts to clarify that ALL bodies of water are protected by the Clean Water Act.

    Let the White House know your support efforts to keep our clean water progress moving foward!


  • Fix the Clean Water Act

    Fix the Clean Water Act

    Promising new EPA proposals would close Clean Water Act loopholes that have left water resources unprotected nationwide, endangering drinking water for millions.
  • Fracking for Natural Gas

    Fracking for Natural Gas


    Poorly-regulated "fracking" wells for gas development threaten water and health. Clean Water Action is a national leader in the fight to stop unsafe drilling.

    Keep Our Clean Water Progress Moving!

    our wetlands and streams are at risk.

    the president can do something about that.
    Today, nearly 20 million acres of wetlands are at risk. Because they lack protection under the Clean Water Act, these vital parts of our water infrastructure are vulnerable to destruction by unaccountable polluters. The President has proposed to fix this problem and protect ALL of our wetlands. We support him and we need you to join us. Here's why:

    • Wetlands protect us from floods – one acre of wetlands can hold 1 million gallons of floodwaters
    • They provide critical habitat for fish and wildlife
    • Wetlands provide opportunities for outdoor recreation and support local economies

    The solution is simple: update the Clean Water Act to cover ALL wetlands. The President and the EPA have a plan to do that. We just need to make sure they know how much you support protections for our wetlands.

    Help us continue our clean water progress and contact the President today!
