It was a pleasure to spend time with Sen. Jon Ossoff today to talk water quality, ecological restoration, and quality of life in the entire Chattahoochee River Watershed including its urban tributaries on Atlanta's Westside. @wawaonline

[Greg Bluestein @bluestein]

Sen. Jon @ossoff promotes the Chattahoochee River Act, designed to improve water quality and restore ecosystems along Atlanta’s key waterway. It would authorize the Army Corps of Engineers to spend $90M on water and environmental projects along the river. #gapol #gasen
