PFAS chemicals and your immune system

We need the EPA to set a health-protective standard to get these toxic chemicals out of our drinking water. The EPA is accepting comments on its decision to regulate PFOA and PFOS, but we only have until June 10 to make sure it sets a health-protective standard. Can we count on you to join us?

[TAKE ACTION]( [Deadline] [Signers] [Water]( [Water]( Tell the EPA: Get PFAS Chemicals Out of Our Drinking Water! [TAKE ACTION]( [Deadline approaching] [Signers] Dear friend, After decades of inaction, the EPA is finally set to take action on two notorious “forever chemicals,” PFOA and PFOS. Exposure to these toxic chemicals has been linked to cancer, including suppressed immune function, hypersensitivity and greater risk of autoimmune diseases. PFAS chemicals may even reduce the effectiveness of vaccines! Right now, the federal government should be doing everything it can to protect our health, especially our immune systems. Will you stand with EWG Action Fund and call on the EPA to get PFAS chemicals out of our drinking water? We only have until June 10 to submit comments directly to the EPA.

They can be found in the blood of nearly every American and may contaminate the drinking water of up to 110 million Americans. EWG scientists agree there’s no safe level for PFAS chemicals! The EPA is poised to finally take action on PFOA and PFOS, but it’s up to us to make sure that it sets a standard that will actually protect our health!
