STREAM Act

The STREAM Act (Support To Rehydrate the Environment, Agriculture, and Municipalities Act) is designed to increase water supply and reliability across the Western United States by funding large-scale infrastructure projects. The bill would authorize federal grants for water storage, desalination, and recycling initiatives, while also providing financial support for drinking water projects in disadvantaged communities. For everyday citizens, these measures aim to combat the effects of long-term drought by securing more stable water sources for households, farms, and local ecosystems.
