"‘We’re Going After’ PFAS Exposure, Biden Tells Firefighters"

"President Joe Biden wants to limit the risks firefighters face from exposure to toxic chemicals in their gear and from wildfires fueled by climate change, he said Monday.

The president, speaking to a crowd at the International Association of Fire Fighters Legislative Conference on Monday, listed a series of policy priorities aimed at improving safety and benefits for firefighters.

“You guys are the best, you women are the best, and that’s not hyperbole,” Biden told the group. “You’re the very best America has to offer. We owe you.”"
