The Constitution Does Not Protect Your Right to Clean Water
On Sept 4th The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals federal appeals court ruled that the U.S. Constitution does not guarantee a right to clean drinking water.. The appeals court upheld a lower court’s dismissal of a lawsuit brought by Jackson, Mississippi, residents over the city’s 2022 lead-contaminated water system problems.
In this episode,I take a closer look at the court’s decision, the residents’ constitutional claims, and what the ruling could mean for communities facing unsafe drinking water.
