You can’t claim to “Make America Healthy Again” while weakening federal laws meant to protect us from toxic chemicals.
Weakening laws like #TSCA puts our health at risk. Clean air, safe water, and products without toxic chemicals start with laws that put health first.

Great @thehill.com piece from @beyondplastics.bsky.social's Judith Enck.
Americans want our health to be protected from toxic chemicals. Congress must put health first and keep dangerous chemicals out of the products we use every day. #TSCA
🧠 It's #BrainAwarenessWeek. Before children are even born, their brains are threatened by toxic chemicals. Updates to #TSCA allowed EPA to finally ban neurotoxic chemicals like TCE.
Tell Congress: oppose legislation that weakens the law that protects our children’s health from toxic chemicals.
We need to do a better job of keeping toxic chemicals out of children's brains. And that means a strong #TSCA to protect children from harmful chemicals. #brainawareness
