This bill would significantly boost federal funding for water pollution control projects and related training in tribal communities. It would increase the percentage of existing federal water funds reserved for Indian Tribes and create a new grant program worth $500 million each year for six years. This means more resources for improving water systems and managing treatment works in tribal nations.

This bill would let community water systems apply for federal grants to improve their cybersecurity. These grants would help them train staff and buy materials to protect against and respond to cyberattacks. The program offering these grants would be extended from 2020-2021 to cover 2026-2031.

This bill would make a temporary program for new water sources permanent. It would also let the program give out money for five more years, until 2031. This means communities dealing with water shortages or droughts could get steady help to find new water supplies.

This bill, called the Clean Water Affordability Act, would change how states use federal money to help people pay for wastewater and stormwater treatment. It would set new minimum and maximum amounts that states must or can use for these subsidies. The goal is to make sure more people can afford essential water services.
