#TeamChemistry, the wait is over - it's the final day until #ACCAugust23 begins!

Last year, we visited nearly 30 states to show policymakers what happens at chemistry sites across the country. This year, we're set to visit even more!

Follow us @AmChemMatters to join us 🤝

There are now just 1⃣5⃣ days until #CFATS, a critical national security program, will cease to exist unless it is reauthorized by Congress before it expires on July 27.

Don't delay - in one click, tell Congress this can't wait: #ReauthorizeCFATSNow.

We wrote a letter to the Delaware Congressional delegation asking their support in reauthorizing #CFATS- a critical #NatSec program that DE's 5,400 chemical industry employees rely on. Thank you to @SenatorCarper for introducing legislation to address its upcoming expiration.

NEW: @SenBaldwinGSPP & @RogerMarshallMD intro "Reliable Rail Service Act" to address key rail service issues

➡️Clarifies RRs have a statutory obligation to provide “timely, efficient & reliable service"
➡️Establishes specific criteria to hold RRs accountable for this obligation

Big #CFATS news- @SenGaryPeters, @SenCapito, @SenatorCarper, @SenatorLankford introduced bipartisan bill to extend the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) program set to expire July 27th.

@AmChemistry shared industry support for the bill: ➡️https://t.co/QW7tm3XEAt

EPA's #TSCA program promised U.S. businesses that new chemicals could be reviewed in 90 days. So why have they only met this deadline 10% of the time?

Inability to meet the 90-day new chemical review deadline threatens innovation & manufacturing.

#CFATS works to stop U.S. chemical sites from being weaponized by bad actors. It's kept America safe & garnered bipartisan support – but is only currently reauthorized through July 27.

Help us ensure continued safety for America’s chemical facilities: https://t.co/UEDhNqwfxn

#DidYouKnow an important national security program that protects chemical facilities from attacks expires July 27th? #Congress must take action ASAP to reauthorize this program and ensure it continues to keep us safe.

As we celebrate #EarthMonth🌏, it’s important to remember how far we’ve come.

From 2017 to 2020, America’s chemistry companies reduced GHG emissions by 10%.

The chemistry industry has been deploying clean manufacturing and emissions-reduction technologies, and they’re working.

We hosted a great crowd this last Thursday for @DEChemCouncil's #CICDStateLegislativeDay! Legislators mingled with our members @3M, @CrodaPlc, @corteva, @DuPont_News, @FMCCorp, @SolvayGroup and others, all while enjoying some delicious @Capriottis. Thanks to all who participated!

Is the chemical industry being overlooked for its role in driving climate solutions?

This #WorldWaterDay, we're celebrating companies taking action to conserve + protect the world's water. 💧🌏

@Nalco_News helps save billions of gallons - equivalent to the yearly drinking water needs of over 200 million people. That's #ChemistryforGood.
