We wash dishes. This is our dish thing. Is that this container work? It out our clothes. We have washing clothes. Survivor mode, you come to use the bathroom, will use it. We have a bucket going to get full. Take our school per scoop out. Whenever we have done this, put in a bit, and hey, you go. We have our back.

To know, in my city, that our governance could allow human beings in 2014 that they had water; we're facing hard decisions if we don't get our fiscal house in order. If you look at the situation in Detroit and Flint, Michigan, that is not America. That's not civilization.

We should not be a country that allows breed and allows money to separate people for being able to flush toilets. Let's be very careful about making a doctrinaire statement about whether or not water is a human right because it may well be, but how do you pay for it?
