Lead
Folks interested in these stories about childhood exposure to lead may be interested in a bill filed by Rep. Pricey Harrison.
This bill would offer tax credits to property owners who voluntarily clean up lead hazards, including landlords who clean up apartments.
A story on this will run in the paper sometime over the next few days, but folks who work in the environmental health field seem to think it might go a long way to meeting the state's goal of eliminating lead poisoning in children by 2010.

Offering tax credits sounds like a good idea to me.
