@BobBerlin_SA@StopSterigenics Letting Sterigenics off the hook without any penalties or liability for wrongdoing? The’ve only been knowingly poisoning us for 30+ years... Do you really have best interests of people in mind?
@DuPageSAO , @KwameRaoul people of Willowbrook and surrounding towns have been engaled in a very costly battle against @Sterigenics1 for over a year. $600K just to measure the levels of EtO in our air... How can you reach a settlement with pittiful $300K in scholarships?
@GovPritzker reopening #sterigenics1 operations is not acceptable under any circumstances! The air trsting proofs the company’s ongoing negligence and cancer rates attest to the poitency of EtO.
Nine months later and @GovPritzker has not met with the communities impacted by #sterigenics. Sign the petition to demand he do so. https://t.co/JbdxpFoox4
@GovPritzker You’ve promissed people of Willowbrook clean air. You’ve got their votes. Now it’s time to pass the legislation and permanently shut down #sterigenics1. No settlement is acceptable! #twill
Spoke to EPA Administrator Wheeler w/@SenDuckworth today. Unacceptably high emissions of cancer-causing EtO in our air isn't something he can wait to address, and we made it clear that Illinoisans are looking for him to protect their families now.
"One area recorded a reading of 26.4 micrograms per cubic meter of the chemical — which is more than 1,000 times the limit allowed by the EPA." https://t.co/7ZlB5nu0Or via @WGNNews#Sterigenics#cleanair#pollution
Kudos and huge thanks to @StopSterigenics team for making trip to Washington and meeting with legislators regarding EtO air pollution by @Sterigenics1 and other companies. Also, tremendous appreciation for all the support to @SenDuckworth, @SenatorDurbin, @RepCasten
Still waiting for you to fulfill your promise to protect our health, @GovPritzker! Please use YOUR authority to shut this facility down and protect our health. How many more lives have to be put at risk? What could be more important? #Illinois#ILGov#Chicago#Twill
@GovPritzker@KwameRaoul Why further negotiations between ILEPA, EPA and Sterigenics? EPA has already admitted the operations of Sterigenics will not be ceased at the moment. We ask you to step up and take a lead in this matter. This is a public health crisis!
@ilepa Dirrector Messina is opposing the bill banning the use of EtO, a carcinogenic gas polluting our air. Really? Profit over people? #Stopsterigenics
@GovRauner You don’t call this corruption, do you? Residents surrounding Sterigenics have unknowingly passed mutated DNA to their children. The damage is irreversible ever!
We need less than 500 signatures to get to 25,000. We know too much to blindly trust our politicians with this issue. We are doing everything we can to improve our children’s risk for cancer and other awful side effects from EtO. Please sign & share! https://t.co/kykww6AfrY
