The legislative session ends on Monday, May 18th. And unfortunately, at the last minute, behind closed doors, a decision was made to extend the timeline for reporting PFAS until July of 2027. This is an unnecessary giveaway to big business simply because they don’t want to comply with this life saving law.
Minnesotans were clear when Amara’s Law passed: our health, our water, and our kids’ futures matter more than corporate profits and certainly more than cynical delay tactics. Implementation officially began on January 1, 2025 — and the law is working as intended. It is providing certainty, protecting drinking water, and putting public health first.
Yet now, powerful industry interests — including parts of the cookware and manufacturing sectors — are pushing lawmakers for delays and special exemptions that would weaken the law and reopen the door to toxic exposure.
This language is being considered in the legislature right now. Send a message to your legislators today, and urge them to keep Amara’s Law intact, with no delays!
