Therefor it is important to know the source of my water and how it is treated, whether from a public or private water supply. I am concerned not only for myself but for everyone, without regard to social status.

It is a public health issue and necessary for the welfare of our nation. Clean water also benefits emotional health. When we see clean rivers and lakes while riding or walking, we feel safe. Rippling streams of clear water are a song of joy to our ears. It is little wonder that mythology is filled with wonderful stories of water sprites. Candidates for political office, whether local, state, or federal, must support laws and policies that ensure clean rivers and safe drinking water supplies to secure my vote.
