🚨 A new chemical industry-backed House bill would roll back key federal protections from toxic chemicals and weaken safeguards that protect our families. This bill is a chemical industry wish list disguised as “reform,” and it threatens our health, our environment, and our communities.

It is shocking to see Katherine M. Butler of #California Dept. of Toxic Substances Control claim that her Dept's hazardous waste included real input from community members. Community input was largely ignored, which is why communities and public advocates called for the plan to be rejected.
