国会第104届会议才刚刚开始，但自去年11月的选举以来，变化的迹象已经很明显。新成员、新委员会结构和新的政治秩序为国会制定和审议几年前无法想象的立法提案奠定了基础。考虑到新的政治环境，猜测《安全饮用水法案》（SDWA）可能会发生什么是有风险的——没有人能确定会发生什么。

The 104th session of Congress has only just begun, but the signs of change have been evident since last November's election. New members, new committee structure, and a new political order have set the stage for Congress to shape and consider legislative proposals thought inconceivable only a few years ago. Speculating on what might happen to the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) is risky given the new political environment--no one can say for sure what will happen.
