Tell Bush and Co. to Keep Their Hands Off the Clean Water Act

If you appreciate clean waterways and coastlines, you have the Clean Water Act to thank -- and President Bush to fear. Earlier this year, the Bush administration unveiled a proposal that would make it easier for polluters and developers to contaminate or destroy non-navigable wetlands, streams, and ponds, which would have deleterious effects on downstream rivers and lakes all around the U.S. Endangered and threatened species will suffer too, as 43 percent of them rely on wetlands for survival. Tell Bush to keep pollutants out of your water -- and keep his hands off the Clean Water Act.
