Dear President Biden:

The undersigned organizations urge you to fully fund the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Funds (SRFs) at $3.25 billion, each, in your Fiscal Year 2025 Budget.

Clean water is foundational to protecting public health.

Fully funding the SRFs will expand access to affordable financing for water infrastructure that protects public health. SRF subsidized loans fund infrastructure that provides safe drinking water, recycled water, wastewater services, stormwater management and environmental protection in thousands of communities around the nation every year. Without increased federal funding for this critical public health infrastructure, the risk of exposure to preventable diseases from poor water quality and water scarcity will increase for millions of Americans.
