GOP is pro radiation, pro formaldehyde, pro mercury, pro measles and pro hepatitis. These are just plain facts.
Also noting that the Trump administration is taking a similar approach with radiation
An executive order on radiation that Trump issued in May criticized the linear method of assessing cancer risk and directed the NRC to consider adopting new exposure limits

Two chemical industry insiders now head the agency's chemicals office. Both have previously advocated on behalf of companies that make formaldehyde for the approach EPA just took that found formaldehyde to be less risky.

“The change would almost double the amount of formaldehyde that is considered safe to inhale, compared with an assessment adopted by the Biden administration, health experts said. In addition to cancer, formaldehyde is linked to severe respiratory problems.”
Last week, the EPA nearly doubled the amount of formaldehyde considered safe to inhale, according to ProPublica.
Two former chemical industry figures worked on the decision: Lynn Ann Dekleva, a former government affairs lead and lobbyist; and Nancy Beck, a longtime chemical lobby executive.
