The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has published its draft toxicological review for PFNA in March, seeking public comments on its research. This comes as part of a broader effort to address the issue of PFAS, also known as 'forever chemicals,' which have been linked to severe health impacts such as cancer, liver damage, and birth defects. President Biden's administration is making significant strides in regulating these chemicals, with the EPA announcing the first-ever national standard to address PFAS. Additionally, new EPA rules require regulated facilities to report PFAS chemicals. Lawyers have warned plastics manufacturers to prepare for a wave of litigation over PFAS, highlighting the growing legal and environmental scrutiny surrounding these substances. Wildfire Nomex is also being tested by federal authorities for PFAS chemicals.

PFAS chemicals can have devastating impacts on our health, including higher rates of cancer, liver damage, birth defects and more. These "forever chemicals" should've been banned a long time ago, and President Biden's @EPA is FINALLY making it happen. https://t.co/u4k6oO76im
