We need your help, friend –

The Biden administration has failed to fully keep its promises on tackling the “forever” chemicals known as PFAS. The Environmental Protection Agency was supposed to release drinking water standards for PFOA and PFOS, the two most widespread PFAS, by fall 2022. But we’re still waiting for the EPA to publicly release these vital standards.

PFAS chemicals have been linked to cancer and other serious health risks at incredibly low doses, yet an estimated 200 million Americans are STILL exposed to PFAS-contaminated tap water. PFAS are still commonly used in cookware, clothing and food packaging, even though these chemicals do not break down, building up in our bloodstreams over time.

Over 100 community and environmental organizations are putting pressure on the Biden administration to follow through on its promise and release the PFOA and PFOS drinking water standards. So far, the delay continues. That’s why we need to add our voices to the chorus and tell the Biden administration to release new safety standards for PFAS today!

Help EWG reach its goal of 50,000 signatures and urge the White House to set protective drinking water standards for PFOA and PFOS!

EWG has been fighting the PFAS contamination crisis for decades, and we finally have a real chance to get enforceable safety limits for drinking water on the books. But we’re going to need a tidal wave of support to keep pressure on the Biden administration to follow through. Can we count on you to join us?

Click here to sign our petition to the Biden administration to release their new PFAS drinking water safety standards.

Thanks for standing with us, friend.
