## Resource

Salisbury families sue Perdue over PFAs in groundwater, and tensions just escalated after Perdue canceled a key mediation — a move plaintiffs call a “rug-pull” after investing $200K in prep. Perdue tried to bring in Johnson Controls and 3M as third-party defendants days before mediation, claiming they supplied the firefighting foam blamed for contamination. Plaintiffs argue Perdue knew about the issue since November 2024 but waited until the last minute to shift blame — while insisting Perdue’s own actions spread PFAs beyond the facility. Lawyers now seek to restart court proceedings to uncover the true source of contamination. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
