I didn't suggest that MTBE was cancer causing. The Senator suggested it is not a health hazard. I ask the Senator, if a person cannot live in their home, is that not a health hazard?

Is that the Senator's position, that if you cannot live in your home, if you cannot shower, if you cannot drink the water you, therefore, do not have a health hazard? Is that the Senator's position?
