    There have been some inaccurate media reports regarding @EPA's actions on asbestos. The facts is @EPA is proposing a new rule that would allow for the restriction of asbestos manufacturing and processing of new uses of asbestos.

        Originally there was a pdf link attached to this tweet. Unfortunately, the pdf died from mesothelioma. Sad.

        Yeah the EPA geniuses took three hours to figure out how to upload the pdf. These are the people doing their scientific - I mean political - best to protect you from clean air and clean water.

        I don't believe you. Asbestos is a dangerous substance that has no use in manufacturing or construction. Do you want mesothelioma to make a comeback? Then ban it permanently.

        Asbestos causes cancer & mesothelioma and it should be totally banned from use, not just regulated. Is it just a coincidence that Russia is the world's biggest exporter of asbestos? Rolling back or ignoring EPA guidelines will hurt everyone in this country and future generations.

        @EPAAWheeler While the old administration did not allow for new uses of asbestos you are now going to consider them. In addition, you will not provide risk analysis for legacy (old) asbestos. This is, once again, a step backward for @EPA. Start moving forward please.
