'Today is a moment we have been fighting for for nearly 45 years,' said Sen. Ed Markey. 'We can see a future where we will no longer be manufacturing, processing, and distributing a chemical known to be deadly.'
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on Monday proposed to prohibit all uses of the industrial solvent trichloroethylene, a move cheered by environmental and public health defenders, as well as progressive politicians who support banning the widely used neurotoxin.
'We can see a future where we will no longer be manufacturing, processing, and distributing a chemical known to be deadly.' 'We will no longer be exposing American families, communities, and workers to a toxic chemical legacy that leaves questions, cancer, and catastrophe in its wake,' the senator added.
