Show your support for USDA Rural Development by signing the pledge!

USDA Rural Development Water and Environmental Programs has consistently supported rural communities in completing necessary upgrades to their water and wastewater facilities.

WEP is instrumental in helping rural America maintain affordable water access for all rural people, and it is imperative that Rural Water’s voice and priorities are heard within the Halls of Congress and within our nation’s leadership. Through our combined thousands of rural leaders from every state, we can ensure Congress and the Trump Administration know that WEP is the trusted partner for rural America and must be maintained.

Sign the Pledge

Maryland Rural Water Association makes your voices better heard in Washington, DC and in Annapolis, MD as we work shoulder to shoulder with our membership to help increase awareness of water and wastewater issues on both state and federal levels.

Whether advocating on behalf of our members on the Farm Bill or establishing positions on legislation affecting our response to COVID-19, MRWA brings the power of our full membership to bear on essential issues affecting the water industry. 

We rally in the nation’s capital each year to personally speak to our members of Congress on key concerns and we communicate with decision-makers at the Maryland General Assembly in order to protect and promote public safety by keeping them informed on a wide range of policy issues.
