Governor Evers doesn’t appear ready to sign the PFAS plan from state lawmakers.
The governor yesterday said in a letter to the Republican-controlled legislature that he wants lawmakers to get serious about tackling PFAS contamination across the state. Specifically, the governor doesn’t like the limits that Republicans have placed on the state’s Department of Natural Resources for PFAS enforcement. Lawmakers say their goal is to provide money and assistance to communities that are dealing with high levels of PFAS, not to make it easier for the state to sue companies over PFAS contamination.
