President Joe Biden, speaking at the National League of Cities (NLC) Congressional Cities Conference, touted the achievement of providing funding through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) to replace lead pipes in communities across the country, including private-side lead pipes on personal property that connect to homes.
The President was able to tout this to city leaders because, at the end of February, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) cleared the way for cities, towns, and villages to move forward by issuing critical guidance that the NLC helped shape.
