We’re finally going to get rid of our nation’s dangerous lead pipes thanks to this infrastructure deal. Every kid in this country will be able to turn on the tap and drink clean water.

It’s not just the pipes. It’s the chemicals in the water! @ErinBrockovich

It will be pipes that support corporate functions & in rich communities that will be repaired first. The allocated money will runout & many places like Flint will not be repaired. The infrastructure bill is taxpayers paying to support corporations & the rich, who don’t pay taxes
Some ignorance!! The water in the pipes are treated, cleaned, detoxified using activated charcoal and the like. The only major source of toxic chemicals in the water is the dissolving lead pipes into the flowing water.
We have not used the water in our home for drinking or cooking since the TX winter storm in February when it looked like this. It’s extremely expensive. Concerned for everyone who lives here; as the store shelves tell me we aren’t the only ones.

Perhaps they could also get rid of the Gaslighting, as it's a slow poison that effect mental function, just like lead.

We gotta take care of both.

even pure water is a mixture of "chemicals"
It’s not just that we made these promises before - look at how the infra bill is being messaged *now*. I respect @POTUS & the leg feat he just accomplished. But this is simply wrong. We did not fund the replacement of every child’s pipe & we shouldn’t tell people we did. - AOC.
