Washington, DC – Congressman George Radanovich (R-Mariposa) today, along with Rep. John Linder (R-GA), Rep. Grace Napolitano (D-CA), Rep. Jim Costa (D-Fresno), and Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) announced the formation of the first ever Congressional Water Caucus. The four Members will serve as co-chairs of the Caucus with the goal of promoting legislative issues involving water as well as educating their colleagues on the importance of water.

“This is a great opportunity to bring together Members who care about water issues and discuss solutions to America’s water problems,” said Radanovich. “The issues of water storage, supply, and quality are critical to our livelihood, particularly in the West where water is so precious.”

The Congressional Water Caucus will serve as a forum for dialogue concerning our nation’s water issues and reaching viable solutions to those issues. The caucus will focus on promoting legislative issues involving water as well as educating Members on our nation’s water use and resources.

“With major droughts popping up all over the country, the formation of this caucus is not only very timely but much needed. I’m looking forward to working with my colleagues on the caucus to mitigate the effects of these and future droughts.”
