Behind the scenes, however, the text of the bill started not as a reform measure but as a pro-company regulation that would help the industry avoid some regulations. Many public health advocates and several progressive lawmakers do not support such a plan. Barbara Boxer, Democrat of California. , at one point announced that the American Chemistry Council, an industry lobby group, was listed as the sponsor of the document in metadata she had received about the draft bill. "Maybe I'm out of date, but I don't think a regulated industry should be so closely involved in creating a bill that regulates them," Boxer said. (The ACC and the bill's congressional sponsors denied her claims.)

Freedhoff, who was the lead Senate negotiator for the new chemical bill, said that when it was finally signed into law a year later, it went from a piece of legislation that was largely supported by Republicans to one that had broad bipartisan support. She added that both ACC and health advocacy organizations attended the final signing ceremony.

However, some experts note that the chemical industry blocked the inclusion of stronger regulations during the legislative process and won key victories, including federal preemption of state-level chemical regulations. In the years leading up to the amendment's passage, progressive states like California and Vermont had stopped waiting for the EPA to regulate chemical and started imposing their restrictions. Under the new law, federal restrictions will override those state-level regulations in some cases, creating a simpler regulatory structure that will be easier for companies to comply with.
