Tell Bay Leaders: Let's Keep Clean Water Restoration Moving Forward!

The Issue

Although we're making steady progress, the job of saving the Bay is far from finished. Alarmingly, the latest science shows that the cleanup is dramatically off course in some states and from some pollution sources. It doesn't have to be this way.

The Chesapeake Clean Water Blueprint will only succeed if everyone—citizens, businesses, farmers, and governments—does their part. For the Chesapeake Bay to be restored, our leaders must get restoration back on track. Now is the moment in time for bold action.

Send a message to your governor and EPA urging them to embrace their leadership role and fully commit to the Blueprint. They need to hear from you right now before they meet in D.C. on July 23.
