The Trump administration is seeking to roll back Biden-era limits on “forever chemicals” in drinking water, imperiling a landmark 2024 environmental finding and angering parts of the president’s Make America Healthy Again base.

The compounds are known as forever chemicals because of their ability to linger for long durations in the environment and accumulate in the human body.
