Starting soon!
Our Minnesota State Director, @acarolines, is moderating this important conversation about plastic chemicals in our food.

"Avonna Starck, who championed the passage of the law as Minnesota director of the advocacy group Clean Water Action, said manufacturers “should be using their expertise, their time and their money to create products that are safer and less toxic” instead of pursuing a lawsuit."
New: manufacturers of frying pans like All Clad, Circulon, T-Fal and Farberware are suing Minnesota, saying the state can't ban PFAS from their products. startribune.com/cookware-ass…

Polluters must be held accountable. We must protect Amara’s Law! #pfas

AI is helping w/e-waste recycling! It's sorting end-of-life circuit boards according to their metals value by identifying chips. It has learned how to identify 8 different categories of CB, soon to be over 30!
And thanks to @kare11 for their coverage of this too! Minnesotans deserve better than this!
@AnnJSMN and Tracey Breazeale were also hit with these false literature pieces. This is unacceptable. #PFAS and the loss of Amara Strande isn't a political game.
Have you committed to being a #cleanwatervoter yet for #election2024 - there's still time!

Ski Wax is one of the consumer products that must be PFAS free in order to be sold in Minnesota starting Jan 1, 2025.
We are thrilled that Amara's Law is protecting ski wax users from these negative health impacts.

We’re honored to work with @RepJeffBrand and @MNfromMN to defeat #pfas - let’s fight for them together!
States are leading the way to protect us from toxic #PFAS thanks to state legislators like @RepJeffBrand @MNfromMN @jenconlin @Maureen4Indiana @katherinesimsvt and many more. They are fighting for us. Are you fighting for them?
We agree!
Uffda .. it definitely is not #PFAS that is and was used for nonessential products and uses that will cost tax payers' billions and eventually trillions of hard earned dollars to clean up cc @CleanWaterMN @acarolines @WCCO
Not only did we celebrate our award winners, but we celebrated some students from @FPS_District14 who have taken an interest in environmental work and Youth in Government. It was a great day that brought community together!
