PFAS-Free Procurement Act of 2024
HR 7775, the PFAS-Free Procurement Act of 2024, prohibits U.S. executive agencies from entering new contracts for specific items containing harmful PFOS or PFOA chemicals starting October 1, 2025. It directly affects federal agencies purchasing nonstick cookware, cooking utensils, and furniture, carpets, or rugs with stain-resistant coatings. The bill requires agencies to prioritize buying these items without PFOS/PFOA when available and practical. This law aims to reduce government use of persistent chemicals linked to health and environmental concerns through concrete procurement rules.
