Please consider creating a National Reservoir Act. It can create jobs for every state, save lives and property, reduce disaster relief, and preserve a precious natural resource that other countries will need to buy.
Why is this important?
1. Water is a valuable commodity. In decades to come it will be more valuable than gold or oil. It can be sold and shipped to countries that have little. 2. A National Reservoir System can control flooding rivers by diverting water to national reservoirs. 3. Reserve water can be pumped to states that need it for drought relief. Just like the WPA of the 1930s or the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, this one project can create jobs, save lives and property, and preserve a precious natural resource - and put USA back on top!
