Senior Program & Policy Manager | Former Toxicologist | Driving Science-Backed Advocacy for Environmental Health & Equity
Reporting back from day 1 on the ground at Capitol Hill 🎤🏛 Day 1 was a success! We met with key offices (Senators Booker, Gillibrand, Murkowski & Murray, Representatives Schakowsky, Rochester & Dingle). We discussed the urgent need to: 👩🏾💅Protect vulnerable populations: Women of color and salon workers are disproportionately impacted by harmful chemicals in personal care products. 🚫Ban PFAS: This class of toxic chemicals doesn't belong in product we put on our bodies every day. 🕵️♀️Mandate fragrance transparency: Consumers deserve to know what's hiding behind catch-all terms like “fragrance”, “parfum”, “aroma” and “flavor”. Supporting the Safer Beauty Bill Package and No PFAS in Cosmetics Act is a crucial step towards prioritizing prevention and a healthier future for all. #SaferBeauty4all! #BCPP #CSC #BlackBeautyProject
