In just 24 hours, over 30,000 of you have signed our petition asking senators to support the Senator Paul Simon Water for the World Act of 2009!
Help keep the momentum going by asking your friends and family to join this campaign to provide millions with first-time, sustainable access to clean water and sanitation.

Thank you for pushing this act S.624 and its partner in the House H.R. 2030. We’ve been behind it since it was introduced, and are working with the political action committee WaterPAC who have this act as their main issue. (http://waterpac.org) If anyone wants to really fight for this issue, I recommend you check out this PAC… they are looking for nominations to their Advisory Board.
