"We have clean water we can drink."

Neither Flint nor Puerto Rico would agree with you.

And those are just the tip of the iceberg that everyone know of because they're clearly visible.
In reality, millions of Americans drink contaminated water or water that no one knows exactly what it contains and what the long term health effects are from drinking it.
And now you have an EPA chief who sees his mission in life as dismantling the agency who's job it is to keep Americans safe from pollution.

These are the top links a Google search for "polluted drinking water us" gave me - but there is much, much more out there on this.
