America's Water Infrastructure Act of 2018

Okay kiddo, there's this thing called the America's Water Infrastructure Act of 2018. It's a big law that grown-up people made to make sure that we have clean and safe water to drink, use in our homes, and for businesses.

You know how we need water to take a bath, wash dishes, and to drink, right? Well, this law helps make sure that we have enough water for everyone and that it's clean and safe to use.

It also helps fix things called "water infrastructure" which are the pipes and systems that help bring water to our homes and businesses. Sometimes these pipes and systems can get old and break or get blocked, and this law helps make sure that they get repaired or replaced so that the water keeps flowing where it needs to go.

The law also helps protect animals and plants in rivers and oceans so that they have clean water too. And it helps prevent natural disasters like floods and hurricanes from damaging our water systems.

So, basically, this law helps make sure that we have enough clean and safe water to use for everything we need, and that everything that helps make that happen stays in good shape.
