Dear John,
Our fight to ensure EPA uses the best available science – and not toss aside studies that don’t fit the administration’s political goals – in crafting public health policy is far from over. EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler is continuing the effort Scott Pruitt started to censor the scientific studies EPA scientists can use to develop standards that protect our air, water, land and public health!
This proposed rule could put peer-reviewed studies by institutions like the American Cancer Society and the Harvard School of Public Health off-limits if access to underlying data is not made publicly available – as is the case with many health studies where identifying medical information is kept private, or older studies that don’t fit the new, arbitrary standards.
