What Members are Saying…

Here are a few words of wisdom regarding chemical safety regulatory reform, CCS, and more from CCS members throughout the U.S.

Indiana:

“In this day and age, chemical safety is of utmost importance concerning the way in which they are being used and distributed.  By updating the TSCA, we are committing resources to ensuring that these chemicals are used properly.”

–Joe Stafford, Executive Vice President, Correlated Products, Inc.

Louisiana:

“The issue with regulating chemicals in the construction industry is that we have to trust the manufacturers of the products we use to be in accordance with the law. In turn, if the laws are too stringent on the manufacturers, it will drive the cost up as well.  We do not need to hurt the construction industry anymore with today’s already sluggish economy. That’s why we need balanced reform of TSCA.”

–Todd Slavant, Owner, Richard Todd Slavant Construction

Montana:

“Thousands of Montana small businesses use some sort of chemicals every day.  They wouldn’t be in business if they didn’t know those products were safe, consistent in their makeup, and had relatively stable prices.  The goal of chemical safety reform is to ensure we maximize our ability to protect health and the environment, and to maintain the consistency that business depends on.”

–Matt Cavanaugh, Owner, Five Valley’s Restoration and Cleaning

Virginia:

“The Virginia State Police Association (VSPA) joined the Virginia Coalition for Chemical Safety to help ensure that our troopers have access to the very best safety equipment available. This life-saving equipment depends heavily on advanced chemical engineering. We must work together to ensure that our chemical safety laws protect the public health and promote the sorts of innovation that will yield the next generation of safety equipment”

–Wayne Huggins, Executive Director, Virginia State Police Association
