Bill overview
The Safe Water in Schools Act of 2026 aims to improve the safety of drinking water in schools and child care programs by addressing lead contamination. It allows local educational agencies to receive grants to install certified point-of-use filtration systems, both as a preventative measure before testing and to remediate existing lead issues. The bill also increases the federal funding available for these filtration systems over a four-year period. This legislation focuses on protecting students and staff from potential health risks associated with lead exposure in school water.
