Statement by AFPM on TSCA markup

American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) President Charles T. Drevna issued the following statement on today's markup of the "Safe Chemicals Act of 2011," legislation on the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), by the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee:

"AFPM is disappointed that Senator Lautenberg chose to pursue a partisan markup of a bill over the substantive and effective modernization of TSCA envisioned by bipartisan negotiations. While there may have been some improvements, stakeholders had no opportunity to review or provide comments on the new draft, which was released less than 24 hours before the markup.  Unfortunately, it appears the legislation is still a far cry from workable modernization that could have been crafted through good-faith, bipartisan negotiations. While AFPM remains committed to pursuing responsible TSCA reform, today's markup represents a step backward."
