$125 million proposed for PFAS remediation
Here’s what comes next…

Hi John,

On Thursday, I was at the Joint Finance Committee (JFC) hearing late into the night waiting for committee members to vote on the amount of funding in the state budget to allocate to PFAS clean up.

Our advocacy made an impact: JFC proposed $125 million in funding!

Addressing the issue of PFAS contamination is long overdue. Although communities across the state have been dealing with the health crises from these forever chemicals for years, Republicans have repeatedly stripped this funding from past state budgets. But conservation voters like you refused to give up. We have continued to push our elected leaders to act, and we’re finally seeing some progress.

As excited as I am about this funding vote, I know it’s just a start. We still have to pass legislation so this funding can be spent, and work to ensure it is distributed to communities equitably, efficiently, and effectively.

We have lots of work ahead of us to get the legislature to actually deliver the funding that Wisconsin communities need to deal with PFAS contamination. Our staff will work closely with legislators in the capitol, impacted communities, and coalition partners to ensure that funding is allocated in ways that truly address this crisis. And, we’ll continue to ask members like you to take action and help us keep the pressure on.

It will take a major investment of time, effort, and resources over the coming months to do the organizing and lobbying work necessary to win this fight. But it’s worth it. Will you chip in today to support our PFAS campaign and ensure communities across the state have access to clean drinking water?

We would not be at this point without the support of folks like you. We’ll be keeping you updated as we work towards legislation that centers communities. Follow along on our website [[link removed]] and listen to my recent radio interview on Wisconsin Public Radio [[link removed]].

Thank you for fighting for our drinking water,
