Plain-English Summary

This resolution expresses support for adding fluoride to community water supplies as a way to prevent tooth decay and improve public health. The measure recognizes water fluoridation as a safe and effective practice that benefits entire communities, particularly children and low-income families who may have limited access to dental care. It has been referred to Congress for consideration but is not a law-making bill—it's a statement of support for this public health approach.
