Co-Sponsor LRB 5352: A Comprehensive Approach to Protecting Our Communities from PFAS
Wisconsin Conservation Voters urges you to support LRB 5352, which is circulating for co-sponsorship.
To protect our communities from PFAS, we need to establish public health based standards, fund remediation efforts, and prevent PFAS from getting into our environment in the first place. LRB 5352 would take this comprehensive approach to protecting our water from PFAS by establishing public health-based standards, creating community grant programs, and phasing out the non-essential use of PFAS in consumer products.
Co-Sponsor LRB 5761: Phasing Out the Non-Essential Use of PFAS
Wisconsin Conservation Voters urges you to support LRB 5751, which is circulating for co-sponsorship.
To protect our communities from PFAS, we need to stop using these toxic forever chemicals in consumer products. LRB 5761 would phase out the non-essential use of PFAS in food packaging, cleaning products, cosmetics, and textile furnishings, beginning in 2028.
