Protect California Schoolchildren from Lead in Drinking Water: Act Now!
There is no safe level of lead in drinking water. Lead is a powerful neurotoxin, meaning it can affect childhood brains and impair learning and behavior. That’s why it’s important to ensure that all water available at California schools is safe for them to drink. Send a message to Governor Newsom today and tell him AB 249 is an essential investment to protect California’s children! Governor Newsom has signaled that he may veto AB 249 would require water systems serving specified schools to test for lead and that results be made available to parents.
