The EPA finally caved and committed to purging these toxic chemicals from the schedule. We forced them to admit that poisoning our waters is not an acceptable contingency plan. Stay vigilant because we have to ensure they actually follow through on every single delisting.

The EPA is ignoring the toxic chemicals currently on their allowed list because they think we are not paying attention. We are nearing 100 signatures and I need you to push this link to everyone you know right now so we can stop them from poisoning our waters.

Too many chemicals being used without real testing. We have no idea what these mixtures are actually doing to the fish population long term.
