Forever Land Contamination Warning: Johnson County & Ft. Worth standing their ground. So far, Governor AWOL

We have a big problem, Texas.
It's the same problem that faces the entire nation. Forever land contamination warnings about forever chemicals (aka "PFAS") from biosolid-based fertilizers, are seen on NextDoor from informed citizens, but what are our state and federal governments doing about it?
A Johnson County Commissioner reluctantly called it "Chernobyl." That might sound like an overstatement to you, but it isn't given how long our "corporate captured" federal (EPA) and state agency (TCEQ) knew about this problem and did nothing. On February 12, Johnson County declared a countywide disaster and asked the Governor to support it. So far, the Governor has remained mute.
What Can We Do?
First, educate ourselves. Check out the Newsweek Report, including video, we have posted for you here ==>.
Ft. Worth just filed suit against the Department of Defense and chemical companies for $400 million to mitigate the disaster on their water supply. Ft. Worth serves Johnson County and many others across the area.
Then, please review our TX Lege page and take action by reaching all your officials -- state and county. The Legislative Session is in full swing until sine die, the last day of the session, June 2.
Last, get involved with LIV if you believe that we need more electoral competition to bring Texans policy, not politics. LIV meets almost every Monday night at 8 pm. Sign in on our Events page.
