Environmental Practice Workshop, with reception to follow.
The Trump Administration will be setting precedents for the new Lautenberg Chemical Safety Act (amended Toxic Substances Control Act). This law was the first major environmental statute to be updated in over 20 years and passed with bipartisan support. The new law promises to change how chemicals are evaluated for environmental health hazards. Chemicals from consumer products and industrial processes find their way into our bodies as well as our water, soil, and air. National leaders will discuss implications for research, children's health, equity and policy.

The free event is open to the public and it will be live-streamed and recorded for future viewing. Please Register for this free event to help us plan for the refreshments: https://goo.gl/lS2EBf
