A new bill is aimed at banning dangerous 'forever chemicals' in products sold in Colorado.
March 31, 2022 at 7:24 pm– It’s rare to see Republicans and Democrats join forces these days, but a new bill aiming to ban dangerous “forever chemicals” in products sold in Colorado is bringing both sides of the aisle together. Because “forever chemicals” can be found in all sorts of household products, like non-stick cookware and even cosmetics, keeping those toxins out seems to be something a lot of people can get behind.
Bradfield says HB22-1345 would ban PFAS — or perfluoroalkyl substances — from products sold in Colorado, saying there are safer alternatives for companies to use. For Bradfield, the issue is personal. Her community’s water supply just south of Colorado Springs was poisoned by PFAS a few years ago due to military activities nearby.“I felt betrayed, I felt frustration, irritation,” said Chris Graham, one of the residents allegedly affected.
“Really truly, the purpose of the bill is to get the predominance of PFAS out of our products that we bring to our home that is getting into the wastewater, and making Colorado a safer place for all of us,” Bradfield said.
