There’s still lead in drinking water plumbing sold anywhere in the US, let alone California?

You’re kidding me.

What the hell were manufacturers thinking?
The writing has been on the wall that lead must go for at least a decade.
And now they’re complaining about it finally being totally outlawed in one state.

Give me a break.

This is as clear an example as you can get to why “voluntary” compliance doesn’t work.

Unbelievable.
