Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Roundtable: Water messaging that bridges divides. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar. We know safe drinking water and sanitation are issues voters care about, but that has not prevented some politicians from stripping health and environmental protections and defunding vital programs, often citing economic concerns or dismissing them as woke or wasteful. In this roundtable, the Water Hub will review recent polling showing what voters care and worry about, and which solutions they support, and then will facilitate a discussion about how we can message our issues in a way that will tap into shared values. We will dig into the language of justice and equity, in particular, offering our thoughts and inviting ideas from attendees. This conversation will help inform our 2025 public opinion research, so please bring ideas for questions to test in the months ahead! This Water Hub webinar is affiliated with Chicago Water Week, presented by Current.

What do voters really think about water?

Join us for our May 8 roundtable to dig into polling, values-based messaging, & tips on talking about equity in today’s political climate.
