What if water service were to stop for just 24 hours? The U.S. would lose nearly $120 billion, 527K jobs, and $69B in GDP. Inaction has consequences. Investment has returns. @TheValueofWater's new report shows what's at stake—and the extraordinary opportunity. @USWaterAlliance https://t.co/V7AWk4R9gF

Thank you to @MitchFound's grantees and partners who led a coordinated education effort across Texas! Voters approved the largest water infrastructure investment in state history. Prop 4 dedicates $20 billion over 20 years to secure water supply, fix aging infrastructure, and address other water-related challenges for our growing communities. 🌊 https://t.co/XuxfLknt9Y
