Washington, DC Today, Congressman John Joyce, M.D. (PA-13) challenged a potential ban of all PFAS substances that would prevent secure chemical disposal and curb the innovation of safer products.

In a speech on the floor of the House of Representatives, Dr. Joyce argued for a science-grounded, risk-based approach that identifies the most harmful chemicals and treats them as such, rather than regulate the whole family of chemicals as a single group.
