While we support all efforts to reduce lead exposure, our coalition is specifically focused on drinking water—one of the most common and preventable sources of lead exposure in children.

Our goal: Secure increased federal funding for lead pipe replacement.

Replacing the nation’s lead service lines requires a historic investment. Our coalition’s top priority is increasing and sustaining federal funding—beyond the $15 billion provided in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law—to help communities fully replace lead pipes and ensure safe drinking water for all families.

The most effective way to eliminate lead in drinking water is through full lead pipe replacement. Our coalition is committed to increasing federal funding to make that possible. We support complementary efforts including faster replacement timelines and interim protections for families, but recognize that none of these are possible at scale without robust, sustained investment.
