Protect exposed families; accelerate retailer commitments to eliminate PFAS.
Organize communities and use consumer-facing pressure to speed PFAS-free commitments from brands and retailers, while supporting state rulemaking that makes progress durable. This strategy pairs scorecards and procurement pressure with practical guardrails so phase-outs are real, verified, and not replaced by “regrettable substitution.”
