The Bush Administration today announced that they will push to exempt the Defense Department from the "Clean Air Act and from hazardous waste laws at thousands of firing and bombing ranges nationwide." The consequences of these actions would be the contamination of water across the country with perchlorate. Also, cash-strapped states would no longer be eligible to receive reimbursements from the DOD in order to filter their contaminated water. You may recall that perchlorate has been found to cause birth defects.
Drink up, America!
