  Make Your Tax-Deductible Year-End Gift Now I hope you’re having a good day so far. As we head into the final hours of the year, I wanted to reach out because your support has always helped make real progress possible, and we’re so close to an important goal. More than 50 years ago, Clean Water Action helped write and pass the Clean Water Act. Since then, it’s meant cleaner drinking water, safer beaches, and healthier rivers and lakes for families in communities all across the country. Because of supporters like you, we continued to protect those gains this year. Together, we: Mobilized  thousands   of public comments to stop rollbacks to clean water protections; Took on  toxic PFAS “forever chemicals”  and defended Amara’s Law, the strongest PFAS ban in the nation; Helped vulnerable communities access  lead water filters, education, and resources  when federal funding was cut; and Stood strong against dangerous  fossil fuel infrastructure  ...

Take Action: Protect kids from toxic chemicals this Halloween!

  You know what’s really scary? Toxic chemicals are still found in many children’s products, and it’s hard for parents to know WITCH products are safe. That’s why  we are fighting for passage of the Toxic Free Kids Act in Massachusetts. You can help.  Send a message to your state legislators right now. Sign a letter to your legislators! While scientists and pediatricians have identified a wide array of chemicals that are known carcinogens, mutagens, or reproductive and developmental toxics, there are few policies that restrict toxic chemicals from being added to products specifically designed for children. The Toxic Free Kids Act will require businesses to disclose if toxic chemicals are in children’s products and will restrict dozens of chemicals.   The bottom line? The Toxic Free Kids Act will protect children’s health. Don’t let your elected officials GHOST you!  Send them a message today . (It’s easy and it makes a difference!) Happy Halloween!
