There are only a few days left to submit your public comment telling Trump’s EPA not to weaken our chemical safety rules.

Nearly 22,000 Earthjustice supporters have already spoken out against the Trump administration’s proposal to weaken our chemical safety rules, exposing the public to more risks associated with toxic chemicals. But we are still missing your comment, Friend. Submit your comment today.

Your comment sends a clear message to the Environmental Protection Agency to do their job and safeguard us from the potential dangers lurking in everyday products — from cleaning products to children’s toys. Send your letter by Friday, Nov. 7.

We need to flood the comment period with voices reminding the EPA of their duty to evaluate toxic chemicals so that our families are protected: [link removed]

Dear Friend,

Our families and communities have a right to be protected from toxic chemicals found in the products we use, the air we breathe, and the water we drink. Many chemicals on the market today have never been reviewed for safety, and far too often, these toxic chemicals go unregulated.

Federal law requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to review and regulate dangerous chemicals that are being sold. But now, Trump’s EPA has proposed to drastically rewrite our chemical safety rules in ways that would let it ignore the true dangers of toxic chemicals in our everyday products.

There is an official public comment period open until November 7, and we need to mobilize as much opposition to this new Trump proposal as possible.

The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) is the country’s main chemical safety law. It requires the EPA to evaluate chemicals’ risks to public health and the environment. If the EPA finds that a chemical poses an “unreasonable risk,” the EPA must protect against that risk by regulating the chemical’s production, use, distribution, or disposal.

The EPA’s proposed changes would let the EPA ignore ways that people are exposed to a chemical when it evaluates the chemical’s risk, leading to chemical regulations that do not protect against the true risks people face. The EPA is giving the chemical industry much of what they have asked for — a promise that the EPA will downplay the risks of toxic chemicals, so that industry can continue to profit from putting them in our homes and workplaces.

For over a decade, Earthjustice has been fighting alongside our clients and partners in the courtroom and the halls of Congress for badly needed upgrades to the Toxic Substances Control Act.

This new Trump proposal would erase much of the progress we have made by letting the EPA ignore real-world exposures to toxic chemicals when it is deciding what and how to regulate. We need your voice to show the EPA that the public needs the agency to do its job and evaluate toxic chemicals the right way, not the corporations’ way.

Sincerely,
Kelly Lester
Senior Associate Attorney
Toxic Exposure & Health Program
