California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed a bill on Wednesday to provide funding to improve local communities’ access to safe drinking water.

The bill creates a fund to provide state money to projects aimed at improving local water systems. The new fund will draw up to $130 million from money currently allocated to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

About 1 million Californians lack access to safe drinking water, according to the governor’s office.

“The fact that more than a million Californians can’t rely on clean water to drink or bathe in is a moral disgrace,” Newsom said in a news release. “Parents shouldn’t have to worry about their kids drinking from the water fountain at school, and families shouldn’t have to dump water over their heads to shower every day.”
