@GovKathyHochul giving independent repair techs access to diagnostic & repair info will help prevent premature disposal of electronic items. Please #SignTheBill to reduce toxic chemicals in these devices from ending up in landfills #NontoxicNY (S.4104A-Breslin / A.7006B-Fahy)

@GovKathyHochul we need action on the #ClearingTheToxicAir #CumulativeImpacts #BanPFASinApparel #BanMercuryInCosmetics and #RightToRepair bills for a #NontoxicNY

The NYS legislature passed important legislation this year to protect New York’s health and environment. Today @just_green is at the Capitol to urge @GovKathyHochul to #SignTheBill for a cleaner and safer environment

@GovKathyHochul The #BanMercuryInCosmetics bill prevents this heavy metal in cosmetics from being sold in NY. Mercury is a neurotoxin with serious, irreversible health implications. #SignTheBill to keep consumers safe #NontoxicNY (S.8291A-Brouk / A.8630A-Reyes)

@GovKathyHochul Toxic forever chemicals do NOT belong in our clothing. They wash into our waterways, contaminate the environment & never break down. Please #SignTheBill & join California in making a bold step to ban #BanPFASinApparel #NontoxicNY (S.6291A-Hoylman / A.7063A-Fahy)

@GovKathyHochul NY should be a leader on #CumulativeImpacts like our neighbors in NJ, to relieve the burden on disadvantaged communities by regulating the siting of environmental facilities. Please #SignTheBill today #NontoxicNY (S.8830-Stewart-Cousins / A.2103D-Pretlow)

Hey @GovKathyHochul - let’s talk #ClearingTheToxicAir : if you #SignTheBill, NY will have air quality standards that protect disadvantaged communities from toxic air contaminants, which have adverse impacts on human health #NontoxicNY (S.4371D-Biaggi / A.6150B-Septimo)
