Excerpt from NY Times:
“For years, the Environmental Protection Agency struggled to prevent an ingredient once used in stain-resistant carpets and nostick pans from contaminating drinking water. The chemical has been linked to kidney cancer, birth defects, immune system disorders and other serious health problems.
So scientists and administrators in the EPA’s Office of Water were alarmed when a top Trump administration appointee insisted upon the rewriting of a rule to make it harder to track the health consequences of the chemical, and therefore regulate it.
