The Environmental Protection Agency is taking steps to restore protections for many of our nation’s most vulnerable wetlands and streams, and the EPA wants to tell you about it and hear what you have to say.

That’s why we’re asking everyone who is on Twitter to join the Environmental Protection Agency’s Twitter chat on Tuesday May 13th from 1:00 to 2:00 pm Eastern Time.

To follow the chat, go to the @EPAwater account on Twitter. You can participate by retweeting @EPAwater‘s tweets, asking questions about the proposal to protect wetlands and streams, or tweeting the supportive  tweets below.  By using the hashtag #protectcleanwater it will be clear where you stand!

It’s a critical time to show your support for proposal to restore Clean Water Act protections to small streams and wetlands, because the Environmental Protection Agency is coming under attack from polluters.
