A massive chemical fire at BioLab in Rockdale County, Georgia has sent toxic black smoke across the region, forcing evacuations and exposing tens of thousands of people to unknown health risks. The worst part? Locals are still dangerously uninformed about what they’ve been exposed to.
This isn’t the first time BioLab has failed its community. Major chemical incidents also happened in 2004 and 2020. Despite repeated fines and warnings, BioLab—and its parent company KIK Consumer Products—continues to put profits before safety.
Many residents, especially in communities of color, are left to shelter in place with little guidance, while toxic chemicals seep into their homes and environment. We must hold these companies accountable.
Sign the petition now to demand the EPA shut down BioLab permanently, and force KIK to pay reparations to those exposed. Sign now—Rockdale County deserves answers, protection, and justice.
