It's Time For a National Moratorium on Water Shutoffs

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is making it very clear: water access is critical for public health.

The most widely endorsed strategy to prevent or manage Coronavirus is to wash our hands frequently. But for millions of people in our country, this task is more difficult than you can imagine, because their water has been shut off.

We all deserve access to clean water in order to take the necessary measures to keep ourselves and our communities safe.

Urge Congress to support a nationwide moratorium on water shutoffs amid Coronavirus.
