There's PFAS in the water

PFAS is an abbreviation of polyfluoroalkyl substances, which happen to be toxic chemicals that have been linked to cancer, liver dysfunction, fetal damage and other health problems. A recent test looked at tap water samples from 44 locations in 31 states and the District of Columbia ranging from large metropolitan areas to small towns. Guess what they saw? PFAS in 43 of these locations. And Trump's EPA is reducing its testing functions.
