The America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2020 aims to improve water resources development, clean water programs, and flood protection across the United States. It modifies cost-sharing requirements for Army Corps of Engineers projects, particularly for projects benefiting small or disadvantaged communities and rural areas.

Furthermore, it reauthorizes key water infrastructure funding programs and directs the GAO to report on federal dams.
