Lisa Garcia, a former EPA regional administrator, warns that proposed federal cuts could severely impact New York's environmental protections. The elimination of the EPA's scientific research arm could disrupt vital public data used for tracking air quality, hinder water and soil testing after storms, and jeopardize funding for lead pipe removal. Garcia emphasizes that these cuts are harmful to public health and threaten the functionality of essential resources relied upon by citizens.
These cuts are not strategic and they are not protecting public health.
The whole suite of work, tools and resources that we as citizens depend on is not functioning because it's slowly being dismantled.
