This is urgent, friend.

Right now, Congress is considering unprecedented loopholes that would allow companies to avoid responsibility for cleaning up their PFAS pollution.

If companies that polluted the environment with these toxic chemicals are let off the hook, taxpayers will foot the bill for the cleanup costs. The proposed loopholes would also eliminate incentives for polluters to avoid discharging even more PFAS pollution.

Click here to send a message to Congress telling them to hold PFAS polluters accountable. Your voice will help us to ensure dangerous “forever chemicals” get removed from our environment.

PFAS are linked to cancer and other serious health risks at incredibly low doses, and an estimated 200 million Americans are still exposed to PFAS-contaminated tap water. They’re known as “forever chemicals” because they do not break down and build up in our bloodstreams over time.

Holding PFAS polluters accountable would provide a measure of justice and disincentivize further pollution. But if companies achieve exemptions for cleaning up PFAS, they might seek further exemptions for other dangerous chemicals. We cannot allow that to happen.

The Biden administration has proposed bold limits for the amount of PFAS chemicals to be allowed in water. The federal government is finally taking real steps to protect our health – don’t let the polluters get away without paying.

Join EWG in telling Congress to vote AGAINST loopholes that would allow companies to shirk their PFAS cleanup responsibilities and keep polluting with little consequence.

Thanks for taking action, friend.
