Demand Safe Drinking Water In Schools

Over the last decade, the drinking water at thousands of schools across the country has been found to contain unsafe levels of lead, pesticides and dozens of other toxins that put the nation's students at risk. Contaminants have surfaced at public and private schools in all 50 states, but the problem has gone largely unmonitored by the federal government, even as the number of water safety violations has multiplied.

Urge U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa P. Jackson to address the widespread problem of toxic drinking water in the nation's schools.
