“Shutting off water to residents in communities is a public health issue that can spread diseases & viruses like COVID-19. Henry Ford Global Health Initiative found that patients who live on blocks that experienced water shutoffs were 1.55 times more likely to be diagnosed with a water-associated illness,..+ mental health stress that comes along with a lack of running tap water.” #WaterIsAHumanRight
Water Affordability Pledge:

“Michigan residents pay more for water than they can afford.… costs have gone up steadily in recent years. We the People of Detroit, Freshwater Future, & the National Wildlife Federation commissioned a study by Moonshot Missions to assess solutions for this growing crisis. Moonshot examined possible affordability programs in six Michigan communities of various sizes, locations, & income distributions. “

Water should be FREE. If we’re made up of 70% water & the earth’s made up of 70% water, then charging for water should be illegal. I believe in #WaterAmnesty
And while we’re in this #JustTransition at the very minimum we MUST have #WaterAffordability
Everyone needs access to clean affordable water to drink, clean, cook, etc. The military uses cutting off water as a tactic on its enemies as an act of war. So the city cutting off water on its own citizens should be seen as such #WaterisaHumanRight

Do you know the City of Detroit Department of Water & Sewage decided to cut off water of 100,000 households (85% Black folks mostly single mothers, disabled folks, & elders living at or below poverty level) with outstanding bills sending Police & Child Protective Services to remove children from the home charging them with neglect & abuse, putting the children in juvenile detention, while allowing corporations with hundreds of thousands of $$$ in overdue bills to slide? #WaterisaHumanRight
