(WASHINGTON, DC) Today, Rep. Grace F. Napolitano (D-El Monte) released the following statement after President Donald Trump signed into law the bipartisan Water Infrastructure Improvement Act:

“This law delivers much needed federal assistance to cities in our San Gabriel Valley who have been working hard to meet the challenges of the Los Angeles County MS4 Stormwater permit,” Napolitano said. “They and communities nationwide will benefit from greater flexibility in addressing these permits, while ensuring the protection of our precious rivers, lakes, and streams. We look forward to the law being implemented and continuing to work in a bipartisan manner to provide clean, safe, and affordable water to all American families.”
