BOXER VOWS TO PUSH AHEAD WITH TSCA REFORM DESPITE EPA RELUCTANCE

摘要

Senate environment committee Chairwoman Barbara Boxer (D-CA) is vowing to push ahead with legislation reforming the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) despite indications that the Obama administration is reluctant to seek some of the broad reforms Boxer and other senators are seeking.rnAt a Senate environment committee hearing June 9, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said she welcomed the "idea" behind a soon-to-be introduced bill that would reform federal chemicals management law-but stopped short of endorsing the effort, saying a formal position would be forthcoming.
