Reforming National Chemicals Safety Policy to Protect the Health of Workers and the Public

Join us for an afternoon talk with Dr. Lynn Goldman, former administrator for toxic substances in the U.S. EPA and current dean at the Milken Institute School of Public Health, GWU. She will discuss the forces that brought about the reform, how the 1976 law was changed, and how the Trump Administration is implementing the act 2.5 years after then President Obama signed it into law. She will also address the implications for the public’s health, particularly workers and vulnerable populations.
