Employees from a handful of 23 chemical companies sued by the City of La Crosse for PFAS contamination have contributed nearly $72,000 since 2015 to Wisconsin legislative and statewide candidates.
The lawsuit, like many others filed by local governments, citizens, and firefighters in recent years, claimed PFAS have contaminated public and private wells and that chemical makers have known of the dangers of PFAS for decades but kept them secret from users.
