We thank @RepAdams, @GKButterfield, @RepKManning, @RepDavidEPrice, and @RepDeborahRoss for listening to their constituents' pleas and voting for this transformative legislation. We are disappointed the rest of our state's House delegation did not. #ncpol

Firefighters put themselves in harms way to protect our communities every day. The gear they wear to save our lives should not put theirs at risk. We owe it to them and their families to identify and mitigate controllable hazards like #PFAS. nytimes.com/2021/01/26/clima…
