Under the new bill, Florida could have roads made of phosphogypsum, a material known by the EPA to contain a “potentially cancer-causing, radioactive gas,” that’s the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S.

I would need someone from Florida to weigh in, but usually these kind of “pro-infrastructure” bills that obviously have social costs such as cancer-inducing materials are usually reserved for ahem specific neighborhoods. I’m surprised to hear (not read because the article wouldn’t expand for me on that webpage) that this would be tested at a facility as usually big corps don’t want to do anything to actively kill their poor workforce, but I guess they’re following the Amazon “the poors are expendable” warehouse model of labor management.
