With IIJA funding ending after FFY26 and FFY27 appropriations ahead, now is the time to protect the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Funds —one of the nation’s most effective infrastructure financing programs.
Congressional earmarks carved out of SRFs weaken their ability to recycle funds—reducing long-term investment in water infrastructure without saving taxpayer dollars.
EPIC’s latest analysis shows:
$19.4B in lost water infrastructure investment over 20 years (~5,700 projects)
39 states projected to lose more than they gain
Example: Texas could lose $2.1B over 20 years despite recent earmark funding
