Bob Hugin: More work is needed for safe, clean environment

[Twitter posting by Bob Hugin]: New Jersey has the most Superfund sites in the country. In 1980, Congress established Superfunds to fund the cleanup of toxic waste. Clearly, there is more work to be done to ensure our environment is clean and safe. #50outof50 #NJSen
