Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-08) and Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-01) created bipartisan Congressional PFAS Task Force at the start of 2019. Comprised of both Republicans and Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives, the PFAS Task Force will work to more urgently address the public health threat of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to better protect communities from the harmful effects of these dangerous chemicals.

The Task Force is working to:

  • Hold informational events to educate Members of Congress and their staff to increase awareness about PFAS chemicals.

  • Craft legislation to address PFAS contamination.

  • Meet with congressional leadership, committee chairs and ranking members to ensure PFAS is adequately and more urgently addressed.

  • Fight for more robust funding through federal appropriations to clean up PFAS contamination.
