I am absolutely mindboggled at the idea that you think the US should not guarantee safe drinking water everywhere for everyone. Unless this comment is pedantic legal snark.
But it is not a constitutional right
Because putting it where it doesn't belong, without any quantification, is meaningless
I think that perhaps you don't understand what a right means, in the context of government services.
People don't get to choose their birthplace, and circumstances change. Worrying about pottable water should be a solved problem in a first world country.

I see that you've never lived somewhere with water scarcity.>I see that you've never lived somewhere with water scarcity.
I live in the US, so no. Despite all the droughts and cautions to use less water (even though it's rarely personal water usage that is causing such water shortages), it hasn't hit a point where I need to ration liquid.
