"The Rauner Administration's delay on notifying residents in Lake County about cancer-emitting chemicals from two plants is simply outrageous. Day after day, the Rauner and Trump Admins continue to prioritize public relations over serious public health hazards."

"The U.S. EPA & Illinois EPA must immediately begin conducting ambient air monitoring and stack tests to identify all emissions from the Medline and Vantage facilities and determine whether these facilities are releasing harmful levels of ethylene oxide -- cancer causing emissions"

"I'll also be calling on the EPA OIG to investigate whether or not EPA complied with all statutory, regulatory & policy requirements & protocols when it intentionally withheld critical health information from the public on these two facilities."

"The health and safety of Illinoisans is at stake."
