Clean Water Action MA: safeguarding our environment, promoting clean energy, and advocating for toxic-free products in Massachusetts!

Massachusetts
As the MA Legislature fails to pass a bill to restrict toxic PFAS, there are nightmare levels of PFAS being found just over our borders in Tiverton, RI. This is the human cost of inaction on PFAS. heraldnews.com/story/news/en…

Hung out with some incredible students at the Boston U Sustainability Fair. Did you know that they use reusable to-go containers in the dining hall? That means less litter blowing into the Charles River and lots of trash stopped before it starts! Go Terriers!

Data centers are coming fast, and MA still has no enforceable protections to mitigate their impact on our environment, health, and communities. Take our data center survey! The more voices we gather, the stronger our case for regulations! ➡️ surveymonkey.com/r/3F9F63M

The Massachusetts AG is suing PFAS manufacturers for the mess they made in our state. MA legislative leaders are allowing the same manufacturers to continue the harm. Why? @RonMariano @RepMichlewitz @JulianCyr @repkatehogan masslive.com/opinion/2026/08…

Data centers don't just strain water supplies—they can be major sources of #PFAS pollution. As companies push to rapidly expand AI infrastructure, we need to fully account for the impacts on our health, communities & environment. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

PFAS?! In stuffed animals? Yes, that is bad news. Worse, today is the last day of the MA legislative session, and the Legislature has not moved forward on a bill to restrict PFAS in children's products. tinyurl.com/2a43k8nb

ALERT! The bill to restrict toxic PFAS chemicals still hasn’t passed! And the deadline for our legislator to act is only days away... July 31st! act.cleanwater.org/page/1953… @Spilka4Congress @SenRodrigues @RonMariano @RepMichlewitz @JulianCyr @Jo_Comerford @repkatehogan

Important story. Draconian federal cuts have led to real impacts on local people, including kids with asthma.
Once deemed the “Asthma Capital of the United States,” Springfield was awarded a nearly $20 million EPA grant in 2024 to address the issue. Six months later, the grant was terminated.

Just days left for action to protect our health and our water from toxic #PFAS. Our neighboring states have passed laws restricting these forever chemicals. Massachusetts deserves safe water too. Tell your legislators! TAKE ACTION at our link: act.cleanwater.org/page/1953…

It's an opinion piece, but the FACT remains: Our neighboring states are taking action to protect residents from toxic PFAS, and Massachusetts is getting left behind. There is still time left this session for the legislature to act! But not much...
#OPINION Massachusetts is the only New England state that has not banned the toxic chemicals known as PFAS. Unless the Legislature acts, residents will be exposed to the health risks of PFAS and will be forced to shoulder the cost of cleaning them up. buff.ly/08de0Qu
