Improving Water and Sanitation Access: Support for Households

This act aims to improve access to clean drinking water and adequate sanitation across the United States. It provides for collecting data on these needs and offering grants for the construction and refurbishment of individual or community water systems for low- and moderate-income individuals. This will help more families gain access to essential utilities, improving their health and quality of life.
Key points
A working group will be established to survey households lacking drinking water and sanitation access and estimate the cost of necessary improvements.
Grants will be available to non-profit organizations to assist low- and moderate-income individuals with building or repairing water systems in their homes or communities.
Special emphasis will be placed on supporting Indian communities, with at least 5% of grant funds allocated for this purpose.
