Dear Members,

As fellow water professionals working to ensure that communities in Maine have safe and reliable water infrastructure, We urge you to write to Congress and ask that they provide robust funding for water infrastructure funding programs in the FY24 Budget. Through the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA) Congress demonstrated a historic federal commitment to support the efforts of communities to repair and upgrade their water infrastructure.

It’s now critical for Congress to include in the FY24 Budget full funding for the programs authorized in IIJA, as well as several additional existing programs. Without this funding, communities will struggle to make progress on the local water infrastructure investment that Congress pledged to support through the IIJA. For your convenience here is a link to WEF’s Water Advocate portal. A few minutes is all it takes to contact your representatives in Washington.

Support Funding for Water Infrastructure in FY 2024!
