Thanks, Biden!

Also to quote another report:
The EPA is proposing that 'forever chemicals' be considered hazardous substances

In June, the chemical manufacturer 3M said it would pay about $10 billion in lawsuit settlements to help detoxify water supplies across the country, after plaintiffs claimed the company's firefighting foam and other products were responsible for contaminating tap water with PFAS.

They're already normalizing the Harris part. I'm expecting Joe to resign due to health concerns within a year of his next term if he's re-elected

People made the same prediction 4 years ago based on the same exact evidence.
