Joe Biden just gave a top environmental job to a man who spent
his career helping toxic chemical companies avoid regulation

There exists a poison so powerful, it can't be broken down.
Dubbed "the forever chemical," it's present in the blood of nearly every
person in the U.S. — it's even found in mothers' wombs and newborn babies.
And, on top of everything else, a leading Harvard researcher says this toxin
may actually reduce the effectiveness of vaccines against COVID-19, which is
terrifying. This chemical is called PFOA and it's produced by
mega-corporation DuPont. One of the reasons it's seeped into our waterways
with barely any governmental oversight is because of a man named Michael
McCabe.
Right around the time when DuPont dumped tons of
PFOA-laden waste that poisoned the people of West Virginia and resulted in
devastating illnesses, it hired McCabe to improve its image. That was
decades ago. Now, he's lined up a new job: working for President-Elect Joe
Biden as he creates a transition board for the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA). But as Erin Brockovich, the famed environmental justice
lawyer, writes: "It should go without saying that someone who advised DuPont
on how to avoid regulations is not someone we want advising this new
administration." Tell Joe Biden to dump Michael McCabe and to assemble a
team of scientists and true eco-champions instead!
Thank you for all that you do,
