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
