Lee Zeldin’s PFAS Problem.
By: Jacqueline Esposito.
From small towns to big cities, we may live different lives, but we all expect the same from our leaders: clean water, safe food, and accountability when pollution harms the people and places we care about.
Across the country, the demand for protection and accountability has translated into growing support for removing PFAS, or “forever chemicals,” from our water and food supply. That has created a PFAS problem for U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin: opposition is gaining momentum from clean water advocates to concerned parents, and many others.
Instead of working with communities, he’s trying to mislead people into thinking the agency’s actions benefit everyone. In reality, he’s handing wins to the chemical industry at our expense.
