The American Alliance for Innovation (AAI), an alliance representing over 100 trade associations across various industries, wrote to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell urging him to bring the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act (S.697) to the Senate floor for a vote before the August recess. The AAI argues that S.697, which passed the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on a bipartisan vote, would improve chemical safety regulation in a way that encourages innovation while maintaining competitiveness. As industries that would be profoundly impacted by chemical regulation changes, the AAI believes S.697 deserves consideration by the full Senate.
