So, when you get back to me, is there a way to use safer chemicals or chemicals in lower thresholds and limit the need for PFAS firefighting foams?

It's not a partisan issue.

It wasn't individual homeowners who created it. It wasn't patients who created it. It was the companies that develop widely popular products and sold them.

I certainly don't understand that.

I think every place in Colorado is wonderful.

I think it's very important for the companies that contributed to the problem to be part of the solution and help fund the cleanups.

I am not sure moving the headquarters solves these problems.

I think we could all agree on a bipartisan basis, and we would agree with you, any day in Colorado is a better day than when we have to be here.

In order to properly address PFAS contamination in America, we've got to understand the full scientific history behind the health risks and its uses.

I hope this hearing helps you feel heard and feel seen.

Thank you, Representative Tlaib, for your dedication and passion, and for bringing them here to Detroit to talk about an issue.

I want to thank Representative Garcia and Chairman Green for coming with the Detroit People's Platform this morning.

Make these banks give some reparations to the City of Detroit.

I thank Chairman Scott and Chairman Neal for their leadership and taking a lot of words and putting it into real action.

I thank Chairman Scott for yielding me the time. Mr. Speaker, I want to thank both Chairman Scott and Chairman Neal for their leadership on this issue. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of H.R. 397, the Butch Lewis Act. This is a…

Eighteen million dollars has been appropriated for research and study of PFAS. It is just the beginning.

I feel that we, more so than any, have the means to provide everyone with clean water.

We just have to fix it. We can't argue about it. We can't debate it.

There is also a bill that I submitted that every public school should be tested for the water.

I believe that polluters like DuPont and 3M should be required to pay their share of the cleanup costs.

A basic human need to live as a human being is water, food, and shelter, and water must be clean, it must be safe, and it must be affordable.

I strongly support the Capito-Gillibrand amendment to the Senate version of the NDAA, which requires polluters to report these discharges.

I think every great human achievement begins with a goal and the goal for the moment, I think, is 100 by '50.

We need to stop allowing industry to poison us with products that we don't necessarily need.

When somebody is weaving around the road, that is the first indication.
