SOCMA Applauds House Vote on TSCA Reform Legislation
Michigan Ag Connection - 05/25/2016
The Society of Chemical Manufacturers and Affiliates (SOCMA) applauded the House of Representatives for passage of compromise legislation for reforming the nation's chemical control law -- the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). SOCMA President
and CEO Lawrence D. Sloan issued the following statement on the House vote on the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act:
"This is a truly historic moment for a major piece of environmental legislation. SOCMA and the specialty chemical companies that we represent have been longtime stakeholders in the TSCA reform debate. We applaud the leadership of Congressmen Fred
Upton (R-MI) and John Shimkus (R-IL) for their overwhelming success in improving the current law while recognizing the need to protect chemical innovation made possible by SOCMA's members. SOCMA looks forward to swift passage in the Senate and
President Obama's signature on this final bill."
