Congress is considering a sweeping permitting bill that would weaken long-standing environmental protections and make it harder for states and Tribes to protect their own waters from federally permitted projects.
The chemical industry is lobbying hard to undermine the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) protections, which bans harmful chemicals and upholds the right of states to implement laws stronger than the federal government. Your representatives in Congress need to hear from you — this law is working and it should not be weakened.
Critical environmental and health protections are at risk. The U.S. Congress could reverse or weaken safeguards and slash federal budgets needed to implement laws meant to reduce water and air pollution and protect people’s health. These rollbacks would open doors for polluters, not protect our communities. ACT NOW: Tell your U.S. Representative and U.S. Senators to protect people, not polluters!
