More Funds for Toxic Waste Cleanup: New Corporate Taxes.

This act aims to secure stable funding for the Superfund program, which is responsible for cleaning up hazardous substances. This means companies producing or importing crude oil and certain chemicals will pay higher taxes, and an environmental tax for large corporations will be reinstated. This will provide more resources for cleaning up contaminated sites, potentially improving public safety and health.
