Washington, D.C. - U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff is delivering drinking water infrastructure upgrades through the bipartisan infrastructure law.

Sen. Ossoff is delivering over $37 million through the bipartisan infrastructure law to remove lead pipes and conduct essential drinking water infrastructure upgrades across Georgia through the Lead Service Line Replacement Program.

"Our bipartisan infrastructure law will continue to deliver long-overdue upgrades to Georgia's water infrastructure for years to come, and I will continue working to remove lead pipes from our drinking water and keep Georgia families safe and healthy," Sen. Ossoff said.

Sen. Ossoff continues working to ensure Georgians have clean drinking water.

This year, Sens. Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock and Reps. Williams and McBath brought Republicans and Democrats in Congress together to help the City of College Park upgrade its drinking water infrastructure. The Federal resources will help the city replace lead pipes with ductile iron pipes, improving drinking water quality for families.

Also in February, Sen. Ossoff brought Republicans and Democrats together to deliver over $1 million in Federal funding to help upgrade Lee County's drinking water infrastructure.
