Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food. The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of PFAS — also known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.
