"The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency held a hearing May 22 to outline further details of the state’s proposed rules that will require manufacturers to report their usage of PFAS to the state by year’s end.

The rules are the second phase of Amara’s Law, Minnesota’s legislation aiming to ban products intentionally made with “forever chemicals” by 2032. The law’s first phase went into effect in January, prohibiting the sale or distribution of products in 11 categories containing intentionally added PFAS.

The legislation was named after state resident Amara Strande, a staunch advocate for banning the fluorochemicals who died in 2023 due to a rare cancer she attributed to PFAS exposure."
