      "We recently went to Washington to ask our senators 'What if it was your child? How hard would you fight & what lengths would you go to protect not only your own, but all of our children?' Refusing to approve [Dourson] is part of that fight.”https://www.indystar.com/story/opinion/2017/11/24/johnson-county-moms-trump-nominee-wrong-our-environment/885387001/ …

          "Dourson's record suggests that when there is doubt, he does not err on the side of caution in questions of human safety. He errs on the side of what his clients want. That makes him unsuitable to be the people’s lead protector from chemical pollution."https://www.wvgazettemail.com/opinion/gazette_opinion/editorial/gazette-editorial-industry-s-dourson-has-wrong-attitude-for-epa/article_5b14a53e-53c9-5b7e-8653-fa3de954d29c.html …
