Statement from Congressman Dan Kildee on Senate PFAS Hearing

Statement

Date: Sept. 26, 2018
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Military Personnel Health and Health Care Environment

Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05) released the following statement on today's U.S. Senate hearing on PFAS:

"Michiganders deserve a specific plan on how the Trump Administration plans to clean up dangerous PFAS chemical contamination, including around military bases like former Wurtsmith Air Force Base. Oscoda residents and families across Michigan have waited too long for the Defense Department and the federal government to respond to PFAS drinking water contamination. We know how harmful PFAS chemicals are, but the federal government still needs to do more to protect public health and provide health care for veterans and others exposed to PFAS chemicals."
