EXCELLENT NEWS!! The state is seeking a court order to end the sale of products containing #PFAS without warning labels to consumers as well as hold companies liable for environmental & public health effects of exposure from their products. LABELS - We'd get to choose!! www.cnbc.com/2026/07/09/n...

Inside the Citizen-Led Battle Against Toxic PFAS Injustice

A new study found that 87% of PFAS containing human medicines already have PFAS free alternatives, with more in development. Researchers say reducing forever chemicals can support both healthcare and environmental health. #PFAS #WaterSafety #EnvironmentalHealth www.news-medical.net/news/2026063...

If one has a "long history of working w/ the chemical industry to erode protections from the worst toxic chemicals", avoid a (failed) confirmation hearing & simply get "appointed" by this EPA. #MAHA - they've again made it a joke #PFAS www.edf.org/media/trump-...

#MAHA? The Trump Administration took two steps last month to increase the amount of #PFAS in your food: rejecting a proposal to set legal limits on PFAS in food and approving three new pesticides made with #PFAS. More on new #PFAS pesticides: biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press...

“Plaintiffs’ PTFE-coated products have seen their sales plummet” - Doubtful it's because of ONE company advertising their cookware as #PFAS -free and safer. People are waking up to the info, and not wanting to risk exposure to toxins. There are MANY cookware options offering PFAS-free. Good grief.

EPA public hearing on 7/7 - 11am-7pm ET: Proposed Regs Related to #PFAS in Drinking Water on proposed compliance time & to rescind the MCLs (PFHxS, PFNA, HFPO-DA & Hazard Index mixture of these 3 PFAS + PFBS) Sign up here by 7/1. Public comment/written too: www.eventbrite.com/e/public-hea...

Delays (1-20 yrs) affect sites in 42 states-DOD officials found 54 military sites where #PFAS confirmed to be posing health risks to nearby communities. 15 are among those facing new, substantial delays for their cleanup. $1+ TRILLION DOD budget for this?!? www.notus.org/climate-envi...

This is just disgusting. How the hell can a lobby group represent the despicable ACC and 3M who are fighting tooth and nail to deregulate, and yet be trusted to 'represent' a #PFAS contaminated community or healthcare clients??!! The system, in a nutshell... www.thenewlede.org/2026/06/chem...

It is time for the government agencies that are responsible for regulating environmental chemicals to stop ignoring or dismissing the harmful impacts that environmental chemicals like #PFAS can have on mammary gland development and breastfeeding. Via @nrdc.org www.nrdc.org/bio/anna-rea...

Yes, there are things we can do to reduce exposure to PFAS chemicals, but it shouldn't be all on us! Trump's EPA wants to leave us with poisoned water by gutting PFAS protections. Tell them that's unacceptable: https://fwwat.ch/42PjPA0

A.7738A will ban toxic PFAS "forever chemicals" from everyday products like, cookware, dental floss, cleaning products, rugs, and more. The Assembly must bring this this bill to a vote before the end of session to ensure NY'ers are protected. @deborahjglick.bsky.social @senatorleawebb.bsky.social

The bill prohibits the sale of cosmetics and personal care products containing toxic ingredients like lead, asbestos, formaldehyde, mercury & #PFAS. This is a point-blank public health issue. @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social protecting health should be your #1 priority & no reason to NOT pass this.

Join us Friday, May 29 from 12–1 PM for our Beauty Justice Power Hour We're calling NYS Assembly to urge them to pass the NY Beauty Justice Act — a bill that would ban some of the most dangerous toxic ingredients from personal care and cosmetic products sold in NY RSVP: tinyurl.com/4zsxwnun

Weakening limits on toxic “forever chemicals" will only expose more families to cancer-linked chemicals in their drinking water and leave communities to shoulder the health and cleanup costs. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/may/26/trump-administration-pfas-drinking-water-regulation

It’s time to phase out unnecessary uses of PFAS plastics, including in cookware, cosmetics, clothing, and more. To learn more about PFAS microplastics and how to reduce your exposure: https://on.nrdc.org/49rrW9E

From our own Mary Grant: These proposed rollbacks "represent the interests of billionaire corporate polluters, not the health of people in this country." Tell the EPA that they must maintain PFAS protections: https://fwwat.ch/42PjPA0

"Too far, too fast"?? EPA knew and fined 3M and DuPont in 2005-2006 for failing to report #PFAS health hazards. What sane person thinks 20 YEARS and countless studies is too friggin' fast?? How absurd. Wanna guess how long new regs will take... 🙄

NYS FOLKS: Last year, industry lobbyists blocked bills that would safeguard us from these dangers #PFAS. We can't let that happen again. Tell your Assemblymember: Stop stalling and pass these bills before the end of the legislative session on June 4 👇👇 action.nrdc.org/letter/4999-...

You've known the horrific health effects of #PFAS for years @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social - it's well beyond time to pass these bills banning these toxins & further put health over corporate profits & ACC, when alternatives already exist. There's just NO excuse www.recordonline.com/story/opinio...

This is NOT hyperbole folks: “The price of this decision will be paid by ordinary people, in the form of more #PFAS -related diseases” via @ewgprez.bsky.social @melaniebenesh.bsky.social Look what our tiny town has been dealing with 10 yrs - the # of superfund sites 😱: dec.ny.gov/environmenta...

Everyone need read the press release from @nrdc.org, as 99% of you & your families already have this toxic #PFAS crap in you. Loads of science on nasty effects to health are not debatable, incl the 4 EPA seeks to 0 out regs, clearly ok with letting your kids drink poison www.nrdc.org/press-releas...

RFK Jr starts with a short list (there's WAY more) of horrifying #PFAS health effects, then claims repealing regs is healthy???!! Yes, you hear/read that right. WTF doesn't even being to describe this. x.com/i/status/205...

NOTE: science on the toxicity of these #PFAS isn't being debated, but a hail-mary, possibly illegal, reach on an admin process to satisfy polluters & ACC. 1000s of studies on the horrifying health effects, worse on babies & children. Proof profits matter & your families just don't. Beyond abhorrent.

What version of hell is this where the National Academy of Sciences is being lectured by Lauren Boebert about what constitutes “gold standard” practices?

"The legislation if passed would change NYS model penal code to adopt the crime of catastrophe which would hold corporate executives criminally accountable who knowingly or recklessly cause widespread injury or harm." #PFAS #HoosickFalls AS IT SHOULD BE. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-...

"These findings reinforce that #PFAS exposure rarely occurs as isolated compounds ... Instead, individuals typically carry body burdens comprising five or more PFAS with differing bioaccumulation properties and half-lives."

Happy Mother's Day ???? #PFAS www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

MAHA my ass-'championed by RFK Jr.' needs a factual rewrite on this one, as he's said nor done absolutely anything regarding #PFAS. These insidious rollbacks will not make anyone, particularly babies & children, healthy. No parent wants their kids drinking even more toxins apnews.com/article/epa-...

"At least $8 billion a year & the estimated cost of cleaning #PFAS up or complying with the recent EPA rule to clean PFAS up are under $4 billion a year. So that makes it look like a pretty good deal..." www.kjzz.org/the-show/202...

Over the past year, EPA has essentially shut down IRIS by reassigning most of the dozens of the scientists who worked in the program to other parts of the agency.. the administration has refused to publish a report on a #PFAS “forever chemical” known as PFNA, completed by IRIS in April 2025.

In a town near you... "Today, Georgia is still not regulating #PFAS, in contrast to other states that have invested tens of millions of dollars in cleanups and sued polluters to recoup costs" apnews.com/article/pfas...

Hoosick Falls total rec'd appx. $90M & 10 yrs medical monitoring. 1 of the products sold by DuPont carried the brand name Teflon (PTFE still not regulated). The chemicals were dumped or settled onto the ground & being emitted from stacks for decades, severely contaminating the water & people #PFAS

"The best solution is to stop #PFAS at the source. NWF supports state-level bans on PFAS in everyday products and firefighting foam. Less PFAS in products means less PFAS in wastewater, runoff, and food." blog.nwf.org/2026/04/figh...

PFOA and PFOS highest, however researchers also identified 26 additional #PFAS compounds, several of which showed similar patterns, including some that have rarely been studied. news.uci.edu/2026/04/27/f...

Senior scientist Anna Reade tells us why it’s time to stop our reliance on toxic PFAS “forever chemicals” in the latest episode of What the Earth: https://on.nrdc.org/42DVNHY

It is not worth the health and environmental risks - alternatives already exist.. "Consumers can take some actions to reduce their exposure to #PFAS microplastics, but no one can buy their way out of the problem—we need comprehensive policy measures." www.nrdc.org/resources/do...

This bill would: Preempt, retroactively and prospectively, all state food chemical laws, including those banning the toxic “forever chemicals” known as #PFAS from food packaging (which passed in NYS) and artificial dyes from school food. HOW is this healthy?? www.ewg.org/news-insight...

Given ubiquitous presence of #PFAS, it's important to understand their health effects, esp among vulnerable populations like children.. findings support contribution of newborn DBS as a media for assessing PFAS exposure, esp when examining childhood health outcomes www.nature.com/articles/s41...

More brag worthy 'accomplishments' from Zeldin on #PFAS - hope for earmarks??! Helluva plan while we 'hope' our babies and children don't suffer the mortifying, life long health effects supported by LOADS of science. TY @repauchincloss.bsky.social for pointing out this blatant absurdity. Good grief.

Rolling BACK #PFAS MCLS that protect our drinking water and public health, and approving more PFAS pesticides are 'accomplishments' ??!!? Insert an 'accomplishment' for the ACC and polluters - - that seems more accurate & descriptive of exactly who is actually doing the 'political meddling'. SMH
