Rural families could get grants for cleaner drinking water in their homes.
The Healthy H2O Act would create a new program to help people in rural areas pay for water filters and tests. This means homeowners, renters, and child-care facilities could get money for cleaner drinking water, especially for private wells. The program would set aside $10 million each year for five years to cover these costs.
Today, there isn't a specific federal grant program under the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act to help rural residents directly pay for in-home water filters or related services. If this bill becomes law, the Department of Agriculture would create a program that sets aside $10,000,000 each year for five years to offer grants for these specific needs, helping eligible rural residents get cleaner drinking water.
