Safer States@saferstates·
States are also protecting people from toxic chemicals in food packaging! Several states have banned #PFAS in food packaging. Maine also banned #phthalates, and Vermont banned PFAS, phthalates, and #bisphenols in packaging materials. 🍽️

Many other states, like Connecticut and Illinois, have also adopted policy to eliminate #PFAS in products like personal care items, children’s products, dental floss, and more! 👏

In Minnesota, leaders adopted the nation’s strongest law eliminating many nonessential uses of #PFAS forever chemicals in products. This landmark policy prevents toxic chemical exposure before it happens and sets a powerful example for the rest of the country. #StatesInTheLead 💪

A new Netflix documentary, #ThePlasticDetox, investigates how everyday exposure to chemicals in plastic is affecting human health. Toxic chemicals in plastics end up in our air, water, food, and products. The good news: states are stepping up and putting health first. 🧵

Strong story from @kathyprojo about Data Centers. Clean Water Action has serious concerns about the water usage, the PFAS and the lack of jobs this place would bring. Data Centers are loud, brightly lit and cause severe health problems for those around it.

Important article from @kathyprojo on the massive tax break Revity Energy wants to bring a data center to Smithfield. I think it would be insane to give a tax break for a lucrative project that would drive up our electricity rates even further. providencejournal.com/story/news/pol…

During tonight’s @RISenate hearing on a tax exemption for AI data centers, Revity Energy revealed that they have secured several hundred acres in Smithfield to build a data center if the tax break passes. I have serious concerns.

RI is proud to have @SenWhitehouse as the ranking member on the EPW committee. Senator Whitehouse not only stands up against chemical lobbyist for RI’ers but also for everyone. Thank you for not weakening TSCA (toxic substance chemical act).
Clean Water Action RI@cleanwater_ri

Look who we found in DC - @SenWhitehouse! We're sounding the alarm as industry pushes to weaken #TSCA, a law that keeps unsafe chemicals out of our homes, food, water, and bodies. He's standing up for every RI'er and fighting with us to protect our health from toxic chemicals.

We joined clean energy leaders speaking out against anti-climate proposals in Gov. McKee's FY27 budget. Local renewable energy projects and energy efficiency efforts are how we free RI from a volatile out-of-state fossil fuel market and build an affordable energy future.

And as we've put in legislation each yr. to repeal the unrealistic goals of the Act on Climate, not a Democrat was heard supporting it... now desperate, McKee sees the light. I wonder if we'll get letters of support this year for our bills seeking to roll back these costly plans?
Brian C. Newberry@BrianCNewberry

None of this is surprising. @RIHouseGOP @MikeWChip @Blake_Filippi myself and many others - including several of our Democratic colleagues, warned in 2021 that the Act on Climate was a disaster waiting to happen and would eventually require repeal and here we are...

Nora's out of town for work, and Jack just doubled-locked the door while I was outside. Climbed through a window to get back inside.

@EmilyHowe87 I’ve grown to enjoy it, but my favorite is the “Rubble and Crew” spinoff.
