Paul Tonko: “It is why I am co-sponsoring Representative Schakowsky's measure, H.R. 3896, the Secure and Protect Americans' Data Act.”

The Hudson River is the nation's largest Superfund site. Hazardous waste and legacy chemicals remain unacceptably high, threatening the health and safety of ecosystems, wildlife, and human health throughout the entire Watershed.

Mr. Tonko's bill would create a new program specifically for what it defines as the New York-New Jersey Watershed.
