It kinda sucks that something like this is being done for an anti-abortion agenda rather than interest in keeping our water clean and safe to drink.

this is just fucking vile.

that'd be like using the surveillance state to screen for immigrants instead of pedophiles. oh wait a hot second...

Meanwhile my drinking water is tasting moldy for a week and the city doesn't really know why or when it will end. It's great

Totalitarianism eventually falls because they waste so much time micromanaging. But before it does fall, a lot will get hurt in the process.

This place fucking sucks. I sick of it. Mentally and physically.

No amount of hate is too much to hold against these people.

What about all the forever chemicals of.... (Insert numerous chemicals that when you can measure it it's already 1000x the amount it should be)?

LOL.. but not bacteria and viruses.

Drinking water? You mean waste water?

Edit: nope, they're testing drinking water. Well, that's good I guess. I don't know how the hell abortion drugs would get into drinking water, but it would be very bad if we found it there.

Time to fix up that ol' outhouse out back. Yep.

“I think what’s concerning here is that there’s already a culture of criminalization around abortion, especially since Dobbs [v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization], and the potential to use this as justification for further surveillance could create more fear for abortion seekers, for providers at a time when folks are already being criminalized and for their pregnancy outcomes, including abortion,” Anna Bernstein, principal federal policy adviser for the Guttmacher Institute, told The Hill.

Nathan Donley, the environmental health science director at the Center for Biological Diversity, told the outlet mifepristone is not one of the known contaminants on the EPA's list to regulate.

It has alleged that as women increasingly use the abortion pills at home to terminate pregnancies, flushing the expelled tissue, traces of the pill make their way to water supply, contaminating it. 

That's fucked, if true.

One, don't flush any drugs. Take it to a pharmacy and ask them to dispose of it properly.

Two, anything flushed should end up in a wastewater treatment facility. If the waste water is somehow contaminating your drinking water, that sounds like a clean water act violation, and the government should be investigated and fined repeatedly until this is fixed.
