House Rep Demands Answers About Delayed EPA Report on Toxic Forever Chemical

Representative Chellie Pingree has written a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Chief, Lee Zeldin, demanding answers about the delayed release of a report on the toxicity of PFNA, a type of "forever chemical." The letter expresses concerns over the lack of transparency and the potential public health implications of withholding this information. PFNA is a persistent and bioaccumulative chemical that has been found in the drinking water of many communities. The report in question was supposed to assess the potential health risks associated with PFNA exposure. However, the release of this report has been delayed, leaving the public without crucial information about the safety of their water supply. Rep. Pingree's letter calls for a clear explanation of the reasons behind the delay and a timeline for the report's publication. The letter emphasizes the importance of timely and transparent communication to ensure the protection of public health and the environment.
