Dear John,
Thank you to everyone who signed our petition in support of LD 222! This critical bill will protect Maine people and the environment from toxic PFAS chemicals by providing Maine communities the funds they need to safely remove and dispose of toxic, PFAS-laden firefighting foam.
Thanks to your support, this bill was voted out of committee and will go before the full legislature for a vote soon. Now is the best time to write to your legislators in the Maine House and Senate to ask that they support this bill to protect Maine people and the environment from toxic PFAS.
Will you help show Maine lawmakers just how many Mainers care about protecting people and the environment from toxic PFAS?

The PFAS foam spill in Brunswick last August was an environmental disaster, jeopardizing the health of Maine's people and the environment. It was the largest toxic foam spill in Maine history and the sixth largest nationwide. Without action from lawmakers, it could happen again.
Recognizing the dire impacts of toxic chemicals in our environment, Maine has acted to phase out PFAS, including banning the use of firefighting foam that contains PFAS. Yet, large quantities of toxic, PFAS-laden firefighting foam are still being stored at sites in Maine and around the country. LD 222 will support communities with the funds and resources they need to safely collect and remove this toxic firefighting foam, protecting Maine people and the environment.
