i have, osfa.
my duder in KS- the concept and practice is not saying that anyone can have water for free as much as you want, etc; but that no state or party can deny a human access to safe, potable water if such exists. if the human cannot pay their bill, it is clear they need water to survive as a human. this concept and practice (clearly) goes far beyond the US and Alabama, but directly to the peoples that are affected most; those in countries and provinces which do not have an ordered, potable water system.... aka 90% of the worlds populace.
water is a human right. under both the WHO and UN constitutions, it is listed as such.
currently, South Africa and +++++ are the only countries to fully state in plain language, the right to water as a citizen of said countries. more need, must and will for many reasons available.
if you would like a general overview, here is a very good source:
