“There is no urgent need for the EPA to preemptively roll back the rules before the court acts, unless the goal is to ease pressure on utilities and chemical companies seeking to avoid the costs of protecting people from forever chemicals. [It] suggests regulatory capture — when an agency created to protect the public begins advancing the interests of the industries it regulates instead. When that happens, the issue is no longer just about policy. It becomes a question of integrity, accountability, and whether the agency is fulfilling its core mission at all. At its core, this is about whether the EPA will follow the science and protect workers, families, and children, or whether political and corporate pressure now carries more weight than the people the agency was created to protect.”

“The Farm Bill doesn't get talked about as an environmental policy, but it quietly shapes how millions of acres are farmed, what chemicals are used and what ends up in our water.”
