I don't know what to a clean way of saying it, but if you're going to contaminate a whole bunch of fertilizer, a whole bunch of sludge, you should be held accountable to help clean that up. I've supported legislation that would provide money to address PFAS contamination in agriculture. and I actually had the opportunity to raise this in a hearing with EPA administrator Reagan on the need for groundwater standards. We need to have something in the ag community to protect our farmers. (29:42–29:49)
