Texas gets failing grade in study about state's efforts to get lead out of schools' drinking water
Texas has once again earned an "F" grade on an annual study looking at states' efforts to eliminate lead contamination in schools' drinking water. The third edition of the Get the Lead Out report compiled by Environment Texas Research & Policy Center found that Texas failed to meet nearly every metric against which it was judged. One of 27 states to score the lowest letter grade, Texas has no law to address lead in schools’ drinking water.
