On July 31, a delegation of Salvadorans from the United States held a press conference in San Salvador to express international solidarity with the struggle against water privatization in El Salvador.

The delegation, organized by the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador (CISPES), met with a number of environmental, community and student groups organizing to stop the right-wing ARENA party's "Comprehensive Water Law" proposal, which was recently re-introduced in the Environmental and Climate Change Commission of the Legislative Assembly.
