Time-sensitive request re: PFAS

Here’s the shocking truth: PFAS chemicals are dangerous. They’re everywhere. And they’re forever. [EWG] [EWG] Friend, Here’s the shocking truth: PFAS chemicals are dangerous. They’re everywhere. And they’re forever. And right now, companies that made a fortune poisoning our environment with them are trying to shirk their responsibility. For DECADES they knew PFAS are toxic – they’re harmful to immune and reproductive systems and raise the risk of cancer. And companies still used them. Now they want to avoid paying for the cleanup. There’s one organization leading the fight to hold them accountable: EWG. For 30 years, EWG has been at the forefront, tirelessly working to expose PFAS contamination in our environment, and they’ve gotten results. Thanks to EWG’s relentless efforts, the EPA has finally proposed maximum contaminant levels for six of the most dangerous PFAS in tap water. But polluters are still dumping more PFAS chemicals into our environment, and we must hold them accountable. My message to polluters is simple: After poisoning your workers and neighbors for decades, it is time to make our public health, not your profits, our top priority. EWG is always in our corner, and now I ask that you be in their corner. EWG is just days away from a critical fundraising deadline, on December 31. Falling short puts all of their work, including on PFAS chemicals, at risk. I am asking for 250 individuals to donate today to EWG. Can EWG count on you to be one of them?

By supporting EWG, you join the fight to protect thousands of communities whose air and water have been exposed to these “forever chemicals”. I’ve personally joined EWG in speaking to Congress about the urgent need for protection from PFAS. Their work is having a real impact, and your support today allows them to continue. Let’s stand together against PFAS contamination.
